I've always maintained a good diet throughout life. Now in my 50's, it is even more important to include heart-healthy foods in my daily diet, as well as vitamin supplements, calcium and vitamin-D.

Having had surgery to remove my cancerous thyroid this year, it's even more important to maintain a healthy lifestyle. My diet includes plenty of orange juice, grape juice, and other drinks/foods high in antioxidants. Eating foods lower in fat is always a challenge but I do my best!. My cholesterol is currently within the acceptable range and I plan to keep it that way.

Heart attacks and strokes run in my family history. I don’t want to die an early death, a death that could’ve been prevented easily. I want to manage my cholesterol and I can do that easily by looking up all the products that contain CoroWise™ brand. Easy, done! And I will not have to worryabout my cholesterol any longer.

My blood pressure started creeping up. I took medication, watched my diet and weight, and the condition was controlled. However, as my cholesterol started rising too, I resisted taking statins; because of cost and side effects and health risks associated with these drugs. I am determined to improve my cardiovascular health by exercise, diet and weight loss. It’s working! A diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, increased consumption of vegetables, seeds and nuts is helping. The addition of Minute Maid® juice and Kroger® milk with plant sterols is a cost-effective, side effects free and effortless tool. Thank you!

I have a family history of high cholesterol and mine is currently over the recommended level. I am exercising and eating the right foods to try to lower it. CoroWise™ products are part of my strategy!

I was merrily living, eating dairy products. Through the years, my heart arteries were clogging up with cholesterol. I saved my life by requesting a stress test from the Veterans Administration, my primary care provider. During the stress test, the doctor observing it stopped me suddenly. My heart EKG was terrible, even though I did not feel tired or have pain! She scheduled me for insertion of three artery stents at the VA hospital. Afterwards, I was prescribed Merek ZOCOR®, for my cholesterol, do not eat much dairy products, and now do not worry about anything.

My cholesterol is high, even though I'm a vegetarian. My doctor says my diet is not what is causing it. I continue to eat well and walk two miles a day and hope for the best at this point. I won't take pharmeceuticals for it. I 'd rahter keep my liver in tact, thank you.

I am concerned about cholesterol because I want to stay healthy and young feeling as long as I can. I try to eat right and I exercise several times a week. I also try to indulge in treats occasionally so I don't go off the deep end.

High cholesterol will kill you. I started to care about my health way too late in life, and have only been doing the basics, such as avoiding fried foods, etc. My biggest life changes were getting sober five years ago, and quitting a lifetime of smoking, almost two years ago. Good moves on my part, finally, but doesn't affect cholesterol unfortunately.

I have had heart disease since 1993. I manage my cholesterol with exercise, avoiding the wrong food and taking the meds my doctor prescribes. I am concerned because I have had at least 20 heart surgeries and have avoided more for over 4 years now. I do not want to go back to the hospital. I also fill my own cayenne pepper capsules and take 2 with dinner. It has dropped my bad cholesterol 10 points. I also grow my own fresh fruit backyard and that helps as well.

I am concerned about cholesterol because I want to have a healthy heart. I watch my diet by eating many fruits and vegetables, lean meat and really watch my sugar intake, as triglycerides levels also play a great role in the healthy heart. Many years ago, my cholesterol level was 270 and my triglycerides were very high. I did not take any medication, but decided to lower my levels with diet and exercise. This worked for me and now each year my cholesterol is below 200 and triglycerides are within the normal range.

I'm concerned about cholesterol because in the last 14 years I've had two heart attacks and three heart surgeries. I'm currently taking Merek ZOCOR once a day, but I honestly don't know what it's doing for me. I don't see my heart doctor but every year and a half or so. Anything that I can safely do myself or take would probably be beneficial. And I'm sure I'm not eating right to boot.
