good for you alan !!

i neglected to get my cholesterol checked before starting atkins 3+ months ago.

i got it done last week and total cholesterol was 257, LDL was 180, HDL was 58.
i had blood work done 4 yrs ago - total was 227, LDL was 150 and HDL was 40.

so i am looking for approaches that are atkins-friendly for lowering it.
i am considering red yeast rice, garlic, lecithin, and Dr. A's cholesterol
formula and mega-pantethine supplements.

i started exercising too - 30 minutes of nordic track every other day

thoughts? anyone?
thanks,
tone
