Go figure.


Just a caution: those are "natural" forms of statin, so you still need to be careful.

My attitude (which also coincides with my own health challenges) is that inflammation is THE problem. If I eat and live in a way that reduces inflammation, all else follows.

Forcing a health metric into a different number is not really solving the underlying problem; it's just tinkering with a health metric!
