I have been on Pravachol for high cholesterol for a number of years. 20mg per day kept me at 237. That cost me about $80/ month. A friend of mine changed Drs and went to an oriental female doctor. My friend who is 78 had high BP, Sugar and Cholesterol. She was on lipitor, two kinds of meds for diabetes and something awful for high BP. The Dr (board cert Internal Medicine MD) took her off all her meds and put her on 3 capsules of Red Rice Yeast. Her sugar is normal, her BP is good and her cholesterol dropped like a rock. So I decided to try it. Went off the Pravachol and onto two capsules of the Red Rice Yeast per day for 60 days. Yesterday I had my blood test and my cholesterol is 186. Ya' all might want to try this. My Dr was astounded and told me to keep at it and he was going to try it on a slug of his patients. He couldn't get over it. Cost=$33/month.

Taz...who is not on any diet and who's favorite food is shrimp!!!!
