Is a new cholesterol medication a safer option than statins?

Due to the serious side effects of prescription cholesterol drugs, there is new cholesterol medication that is gaining a lot of attention these days.

Unlike the statin drugs, such as Lipitor, Zocor, Pravachol and others, the latest treatments offer a safer, natural solution to the problem.

In fact, some of these new treatments have been shown to be more effective than prescription drugs, and as such could be the answer for the millions of people suffering from high cholesterol, a condition which could lead to heart attack or stroke.

So what is this new cholesterol medication?

There are some very powerful natural supplements that can have a significant effect.

These nutrients can not only lower LDL (bad), but they can also increase HDL (good), and provide additional cardiovascular benefits with their antioxidant ability.

The problem with statins, besides being linked to severe muscle breakdown and liver damage, is that they also deplete the body of an essential heart nutrient, called coenzyme Q10, or coQ10 for short.

So while these prescription drugs can help lower LDL, they are actually harming your body at the same time by removing a compound your heart needs to function properly.

New cholesterol medication is made up of all natural ingredients that can safely balance the levels, without the dangerous side effects of prescription meds.

What's in these new statin alternatives?

The most effective of these new treatments include the following:

Policosanol - a powerful extract from sugar cane wax and rice bran that has been widely studied. Policosanol has been shown to lower LDL and increase HDL.

Guggulipid - an ancient Indian herb that has been shown to lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Guggulipid reduces LDL levels and has performed better than modern drugs in several trials.

Green Tea - among its many therapeutic benefits green tea has been shown to lower the amount of LDL in the blood stream, and aids in the prevention of blood vessel constriction.

D-Limonene - a natural orange peel extract which has been shown to reduce LDL levels.

Beta Sitosterol - a natural plant chemical with a similar structure to cholesterol which can reduce cholesterol absorption significantly.

Pumpkin Seed Oil - enhances the cholesterol lowering effects of other nutrients and is a rich source of essential fatty acids.

Studies have shown that in order to reap the most benefits, you are probably better off with a supplement containing some or all of these nutrientsrather than a single ingredient supplement.

Working together, they can offer a safe, effective way to lower your LDL cholesterol as well as increase HDL and promote overall cardiovascular health.
