I have already suffered 2 heart attack & have what my phsyican calls dangerously high triglycerides & LDL, and i was told that if i do not get these levels under control i will have another. This did frighten me and i knew i needed to do something to reverse this damage. I knew plant sterols were powerful so i tried Sterolyn, and i'm very proud to say that my triglycerides have gone from 512 all the way down to 155. LDL count down from 240 to 132. Great product.

Great presentation for children of geriatric patients with chronic heart failure. My 95 year old Mom has CHF and dementia so this really helped me understand what I am facing and what I need to monitor. Thanks.

On valum and timolol I have not had a fib in five years.....Beta blockers will make you stay awake...valum helps combat the side affects of beta blockers.
