Natural Supplements to Lower Your Cholesterol

Has your doctor told you that you need to lower your cholesterol, but you are a little unsure how to go about it? Sure, you know you should cut out meat and fried foods, foods high in sugar and simple carbohydrates, but if that doesn?t work, what else can you do?

Here?s how to lower your cholesterol the natural way, with supplements that are typically safe and effective.

First of all, Beta-Sitosterol is a natural plant extract found in soy and rice that can improve cholesterol metabolism. It works by decreasing the absorption of cholesterol in the digestive system, and decreasing the amount of cholesterol that your liver itself produces.

Another natural plant extract is citrus pectin, taken from fruit. Citrus pectin both lowers cholesterol levels and prevents cholesterol from forming sticky plaque that can clog blood vessels, causing heart attacks and strokes.

Studies have shown that citrus pectin can significantly decrease cholesterol even when patients do not make significant changes to their lifestyles or their diets. Imagine what it can do for you if you combine it with significant lifestyle changes!

Before you begin taking any natural supplement, talk to your doctor to make sure it is safe for you. Many people assume that ?natural? means ?safe,? and most of the time that is true. However, not every supplement is right for every body, so double check with your doctor, just to be sure.

Then, you can start lowering your cholesterol the way nature intended.
