Good Product! Try It!

I used to take CholestOff and wanted to try CholestGenix instead to see if my cholesterol numbers went down and they did - not a lot - but enough to make an impact and keep me from taking cholesterol lowering drugs (which I'm really trying to avoid!). Try it and see if you see an improvement!

It lowered my cholesterol
February 22, 2021
After my first order in July 2020 my cholesterol went down and I wanted even lower numbers, so I ordered again in October 2020. I was very pleased to see all the numbers significantly better. I don't want to be on any meds, so I will order again. No side effects or special restrictions, along with diet modifications I am going to keep my cholesterol as normal as possible.

This went to work quickly on my cholesterol. I refused to take a statin. I don't see how sacrificing my liver for my heart makes sense. This worked.
Merchant Response:Thanks Joe! It does work!

Lowered Cholestrol sucessfully in 6 months.
June 10, 2017
My doctor told me I need to take prescription lowering cholesterol drugs. I asked for 6 months, he agreed. I took CholestGenix and Nitric Oxide Support from mid Jan until end of May. My numbers went from 275 to 214! I was taking double the amount listed on the containers. As soon as it's below 200, I'll go to amount listed on the containers. I wanted to add that I did not change my diet in any way. Worked for me!

i have side effects from using statins. stayed off statin for 4 months and dr put me on red yeast rice. now i am getting the same side effects as the statin. what are the side effects of this medication. does it cause muscle / ;joint pain or limit the use of arms or make it hard to walk or stand?
1 Answer
We haven't see that many issues with the red yeast rice products but it is certainly a possibility. Statins should always, always, always be taken with CoQ-10 as the production of CoQ-10 is inhibited by this type of drug. You could be getting the same effect with the red yeast rice too so the same rule applies. Take at least 200 mg of CoQ-10 per day. You might need more (300-400 mg) for a few months to help your body heal.

Why does this product show Prop 65?
1 Answer
First I will refer you to an article on our website about Prop 65. The levels that have to be reported as significant are far lower than any other regulatory body in the world. So far the only beneficiaries of Prop 65 has zero to do with human health but everything to do with legal fees ($210 million so far). https://www.ovitaminpro.com/pr65ex.html
That being said, a few items we carry show levels of lead (or other chemicals) to exceed the California reporting requirement. Remember, this reporting requirement doesn't exist for spinach that will probably contain more lead than CholesGenix. Let us know if you have other questions.

can I take this product if I take bp meds ?
1 Answer
You can take them together but keep an eye on your blood pressure. Red Yeast Rice can help lower blood pressure, so your blood pressure could drop thereby needing less bp medicaton.

I have had multiple strokes this year. I can't take stantins. Is this something I could take
1 Answer
CholestGenix can help bring your lipid numbers down in many people. It is certainly worth a try. Some strokes are bleeders and some are clots. Keeping your blood pressure in a healthy range is always helpful. You might do well with Nitric Oxide Support by Pure Encapsulations (a couple of scoops per day). If you are forming clots, you might need more fish oil like Nordic Naturals ProOmega.
One of the problems with statins is the way it affects your CoQ-10. You might be having symptoms from statins because you aren't supplementing with 300 mg per day of CoQ-10. We have been using the Karuna version for many years. (https://www.ovitaminpro.com/kccoq10-100-60.html).
Let us know how else we can help or with what other questions you might have.
