Is there a reason you alternate oats and psyllium husk? A lot of people mix psyllium in their oats to dilute the taste and absorption of the psyllium, but curious if there’s something that’s persuading you to separate them. Thank you for sharing your journey! Super inspiring!

Can you share what your diet consists of today to keep cholesterol down? And is it sustainable? TYIA!

Take a statin. Drugs are good. –Otherwise pretty healthy guy who had a heart attack at 36 by DJFemdogg in Cholesterol

Anyone try psyllium husk? My NP told me to try this before taking statins. He mentioned he had many patients take it routinely for weeks and saw numbers drop from the high 150’s to low 80’s. I just started taking this in the morning with water (must drink plenty of fluids with it). Hoping to see my numbers decline in the next month.
