Medical breakthrough to lower cholesterol

[pfclassof61]

Like many, I struggle to keep my cholesterol levels down - and I WILL NOT use statins.

There is a natural remedy from the plant genus plantago. A cholesterol reduction has been attributed to a diet that includes fibre taken from black, French and Spanish plantago.

The mucilage content of plantago is a clear, colorless, gelling agent. The mucilage obtained is derived from the seed coat and is used as a thickener in ice cream and frozen desserts.

The refined fibre from husks of plantago seed are available from High Street herbalists such as Holland & Barrett.



This preparation is also highly recommended for dyslexia and bouts of irritability.

Shouldn't that be Psyllium Hsuks?

Oats are far cheaper and easier to get hold of.

PFClassof61. I've got massively elevated cholesterol. Its about 8 or so.

Does this stuff work?

I try to eat oats, oily fish and garlic 1x a day (smelly yes) to reduce it.

I wonder if the effects are cumulative.

I had some pretty rotten side effects from statins and I refuse to take them too.

As most of your medical reports will include the words "Psychoanalysis", "Psycho", "Psychiatric" "Psychopathic" etc I bow to your greater expertise in this area.

Oh, nearly forgot pyschizophrenia, the most important one Aloysius. Or is it Alosyius?

Well that looks and sounds appealing Lassie, something you'd find in a 19th Century apothecary!
