I heard about Beta-Sitosterol OTC to lower LPa. I have been on it for a little over 3 months. In the last year my LPa came down 60 points and my good cholesterol is up enough that my cholesterol ratio is 2.5. My cardiologist literally said “if you can’t take statins or Repatha then I have nothing for you.” Quit the cardiologist. My internist is following my heart health for now. He said he had heard of Beta-Sitosterol and since I tolerate it and it could be the source of my improvement, to continue it. If you absolutely cannot take statins or Repatha it is a scary path. Also, I consider it to be incompetent to say he can do nothing for me if I can’t take statins or Repatha. Is that all he has? That’s terrible.
Yes. He gave me some smoothie recipes. I have to go to a Chinese store to get some of the ingredients. The statins made me feel so bad I decided I would rather have 10 less years of life than to live those extra years in bed and hurting.
