So followed suit n somehow found on some nutrients website tat state nvr take more than 2 capsule per dy as it may harm liver. Both r refering to 600mg/capsule. So m i now over dose or wat????

 

Take 2 daily twice a day means you take 2 per day and 1 each time..

So you only take 2 per day. Am I right or left?

+1. Have been exercising regularly (3 times weekly) for the past 1 year since diagnose with high bp and high cholesteral. Both went down and no need medication anymore.

 

But must have discipline to go excerise.

Yeah.. better read it again.. If unsure, it is always better to underdose than to overdose..

 

Overdose can cause liver failure.. Remember the slim 10 cases..

What Most Doctors Won't Tell You About Cholesterol

Here are the main points to take away from the facts presented above:

Cholesterol that naturally occurs in animal foods is not harmful to your health. But it can become harmful to your health if it is damaged by exposure to high levels of heat and/or harsh processing techniques.

If you regularly consume damaged cholesterol and foods that are rich in free radicals, you likely have significant quantities of damaged cholesterol floating through your circulatory system.

And if you regularly have damaged cholesterol floating around in your blood, then a high LDL level correlates with a higher-than-average risk of developing cardiovascular disease, and a high HDL level correlates with a lower-than-average risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

In other words, if you have significant amounts of damaged cholesterol in your blood circulation, you don’t want a lot of LDL to be available to carry this cholesterol to your arteries, where the damaged cholesterol can contribute to atherosclerosis, and you want a lot of HDL available to shuttle damaged cholesterol away from your arteries.

So while it’s true that a high HDL/total cholesterol ratio can reflect a lower risk of developing cardiovascular disease, what’s most important when it comes to cholesterol and your health is to avoid eating animal foods that have been cooked at high temperatures, since these foods are typically rich in damaged cholesterol.

Where Conventional Guidelines Come From

Sadly, conventional guidelines that promote lower cholesterol levels for a healthy heart are influenced in large part by pharmaceutical companies earning billions of dollars with their cholesterol-lowering drugs.
