Suggest Medicine To Lower Cholestrol Level

I have taken lipator for at least 20 years ... then began taking crestor. I am experiencing severe muscle cramps, my hand, feet and stomach are swollen, I have memory fog, and a sonogram showed that the left side of my heart was somewhat swollen. My cardiologist feels crestor is one of the best drugs for lowering cholesterol ... my good cholesterol runs around 60 ... bad is usually 250 or over and my tryclereritics are usually high. I turned 58 in March and am overweight. My question is there any drugs that can help lower cholesterol besides statin drugs and niacin? Thanks ...

Hello ,
Thank you for your question .

Recommendations for Low Total Cholesterol:
Amino Acid / Protein
L-Taurine
Taurine and beet concentrate are very effective at thinning the bile in the gallbladder.
Detoxification
Liver/Gall Bladder Flush
The liver/gallbladder flush helps to remove thickened bile by mobilizing it.
Diet
Coconut
Beetroot
Lab Tests/Rule-Outs
Test for Hormones
A chronically low serum cholesterol level can be an unsuspected problem. Since cholesterol is the precursor to the adrenal and sex steroids, low levels may mean an insufficient supply of raw material for hormone production. When there are indications of hormone insufficiency, appropriate lab testing should be conducted.

From me , i always recommend my patients to visit ((Fitness Nutrition Specialist)) to make plan of diet and time table to loose weight naturally and he will choose natural food and drink which treat cholesterol.
Always think about nature solution , it has no side effect.

I wish i was helpful for you.
