Hi, sbranen - As I have posted, I am highly allergic to statins, so am trying 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1-3 tablespoons per day (which I dipinto with Croissants and sometimes add yummy Balsamic vinegar I green 3-4 cups of Green Tea, et Salmon, salads and various nuts per day. Of course cut out that candy I used to adore, most breads and other carbohydrates, no red meat, etc. We'll see what happens when I visit the doctor in September and get a blood draw. EVOO is also good for inflammation, which I still have in my Achilles tendon thanks to statins. Wishing you the best 🙁
