A doctor I met about a year ago told me his bother was using Res - Q with good results. It is expensive. Has anyone here tried it and what were your results?

I have been using it for a little over a year now and the only time it really got my Cholesterol down to 150 total was when I was taking 4 fish oil + 3 red rice yeast twice a day ( instucted by them to do so ) but my numbers were still not in a good ratio and it got to be to expensive to continue that way. So I now take 3 oil and 1 red rice yeast twice a day and I'm back up to 214 total and I'm also taking 20mg lipitor. But I have talked to some people who have had great success with this product at a seminar that I went to. I'm gonna try a fish oil from my local health food store that is not as expensive. Good luck to you

Boy, they are cagey about pricing.
Res-Q 1250 is a fish oil (about 700 mg. Omega-3's per capsule) that seems to be marketed as something special as witness "call for price."
I imagine the price is quite hideously high ...can someone who's using it tell me HOW high?

I always look for the cheapest way to get a task accomplished and this stuff doesn't seem to be the cheapest from what I know about marketing. When you have the lowest price you TRUMPET the fact.

I could be wrong though, maybe they want only a few pennies a capsule<snicker>

Res-Q-1250 = $52.00 per Bottle 200 capsules per bottle
Res-Q LDL-X = $38.00 per Bottle (red rice yeast) 120 capsules per bottle
They say you need to use both of these products together t get the best results

That's not too bad for very potent capsules...
To get 1000 mg. of DHA + EPA then is about 1.5 capsules so that's $52/ (200/1.5)days or about .39/day.

My cod liver oil costs a little less than a dime for that amount but at least the price is within reason.

(I know they recommend you take much more than a gram/day, but I'm just trying to compare apples with apples.
