Since the tea has strong flavor and color I made as ice tea, but I mixed with red rasberry leaf organic (boiled first to make tea)(StarWest Botanicals) to reduce my cholesterol.Drink it two three time a day. Make sure you have food in your stomach because it is a little sour. I stop taking pills choleserol.

You get the "Contour next EZ", a cheap case, a Microlet2 and about 10 lancets. Probably included a few test strips, but, I don't remember. At any rate you should but additional test strips. These are "Contour Next" strips. I think the device is a little more accurate than my previous one. The strips are also slightly more expensive. Good Luck

Yes. I am using the same product by LifeExtension. It was ordered by my doctor and recommended that I purchase it through amazon for the pricing. I have found it has helped my improve my blood test results in a very positive way. There are cheaper products out there, however, you get what you pay for. I am very satisfied with this product and the current pricing. I hope this helps.Susan T.

i just watched hours of videos by Stasha Gominak, MD. she is connecting D3 issues with so many health issues its not funny. the problem is different people need different amounts. your climate, skin color and other things effect your levels. high levels are as bad as low levels. the best answer i can give you is she says that you need to keep it in a tight band, a range from 60-80 (in whatever units it shows up on your blood test)... so i guess the best answer would be to work with your doctor to achieve 60-60 on your blood tests.

You probably don't need this item since all the test strips come with everything you need. I buy the 3 test strips and own a CardioChek tester that works great. Have never heard of clear cap so hope this is helpful.

Go to Standard Process and bring up the information that you are concerned with. I know for me I had gone to a chiropractor that is also a nutritionist and he recommended this for me since I had my gallbladder out. I wouldn't be without it now as I take one with every meal and no more gas, bloating or upset stomach. It is all natural and works!!

Cholesterol is needed to make hormones. Without it we would not produce estrogen, progesterone or testosterone. It is vital for the functioning of nerve synapses and provides the structural integrity for our cell membranes. Cholesterol is used by the skin to help prevent water evaporation and to make our skin waterproof. Vitamin D is synthesized from cholesterol. And bile, used for fat digestion, consists mostly of cholesterol. The liver produces about 90 percent of the cholesterol in our bodies; only 10 percent comes from diet. If we eat too much cholesterol, the liver decreases the output of cholesterol. Cholesterol is a naturally occurring lipid. This means it is a type of fat or oil and it is in fact an essential component in creating and sustaining the membranes of the cells of all bodily tissues. So this alone means we need cholesterol to survive! Most of the cholesterol that is found in our bodies is actually naturally manufactured within our own cells. However there is also an additional contribution that we get from external 'nutritional' sources - the foods we consume. In a typical diet providing around 400mg of cholesterol per day from food sources, about half to two-thirds of this amount is actually absorbed through the process of digestion. The body will normally secrete about a gram (1000mg) of cholesterol per day into the bile via the ducts, and approximately three-fifths of this is then re-absorbed. There is a lot of controversy whether or not there really is good and bad cholesterol. Most of this was copied from an article I read from preventdisease.com

None listed on label, though much of this concept seems irrelevant since cholesterol is naturally made in the body & has many necessary functions. And of course there is "good cholesterol" & "bad cholesterol". Some research seems to show refined carbs may contribute more to body fat/"bad cholesterol". Individuals have different sensitivities to good fats/bad fats as well as to good carbs/bad carbs. You may want to recheck with your own doctor(s) about your own cholesterol test numbers & what they mean for you.

It depends on your circulation. I personally could tell a difference with just one scoop. This is good stuff, but really a person needs to eat healthy and do exercise to keep arteries healthy.

All fish oil has tiny amounts of cholesterol, but it is negligible. But science shows that people who take fish oil generally have a significant reduction of triglcyerides. I can't speak for how other companies set their prices. But, we have a direct relationship with the company that sources and distills the fish oil, so we're able to cut out the middleman. Also we feel strongly that everyone should take the highest quality product available so they get results, so we try to keep our prices down

Not really. It depends on what else you're eating and how physically active you are. If you are eating a lot of foods that are high in cholesterol, then you need to be concerned. If you are consuming massive amounts of whey protein on a daily basis and not being physically active, there is cause for concern. I am not a doctor and I don't know your personal health situation. For me, after a year of using organic whey protein, my bad cholesterol has gone done and my good cholesterol is up. I also do hard physical work every day and watch my diet carefully. My son had to have his bodyfat checked for wrestling, so I had mine taken for the fun of it, and it was 10%. Hope this helps you. Not really.
