Comment:
Triglycerides dropped from 600 to 76 after three months. Cholesterol levels overall are still a little high. Good cholesterol did increase to acceptable levels. Only side effects have been increased urination and increased gas.

No way could I drive and take it and was suppose to take it twice

Comment:
About an hour after drinking the second doses, my stomach started to jump and I felt very sore in the area afterwards. I consulted with my doctor regarding this and the doses was reduced to once a day and not twice. I feel better and still have the doubt, am I really getting better.
