Natural Prescriptions for High Cholesterol

Natural Prescriptions—High Cholesterol

If you're worried about your cholesterol and have already started exercising and eating healthier foods, you might wonder if adding a cholesterol-lowering supplement to your diet can help reduce your numbers.

What are the cholesterol treatment steps you need to take to get your cholesterol in the proper balance?

Perform a liver and colon cleanse
Exercise, exercise, exercise
Reduce sharp spikes in your blood sugar level through proper diet choice and eating smaller meals regularly.
Eat foods that lower cholesterol and avoid foods that increase cholesterol


Natural Prescription #1 Policosanol
Take 10 to 20 mg each evening. Numerous studies show that policosanol reduces total and LDL cholesterol, lipoprotein(a), and increases the good HDL cholesterol.
Policosanol is an all-natural compound derived from sugarcane wax that is believed to help support healthy cholesterol levels in two different ways: by inhibiting the synthesis of cholesterol in the liver and by reducing platelet aggregation, or "stickiness" that can lead to blood clots and cardiovascular issues.

Because of its potential blood-thinning effects (similar to aspirin), policosanol is not recommended for individuals taking blood-thinning medications (such as Coumadin) or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), like ibuprofen.



Natural Prescription #2 Red yeast rice (Monascus purpureus)
Take 1,200 mg twice daily. This extract has been shown to reduce cholesterol levels and increase HDL. The type of product used in successful studies contained 10 to 13.5 mg of monacolins per day. Note: Take 100 mg of CoQ10 daily when using this product.

Do not use red yeast rice to replace conventional care or to postpone seeing a health care provider about a medical problem.
Do not use red yeast rice dietary supplements if you are pregnant, might become pregnant, or are nursing a baby. If you are considering giving a child a red yeast rice dietary supplement, it is important to consult the child’s health care provider.
Do not take red yeast rice in addition to prescription statin drugs.

Super Prescription #6 Guggul (Commiphora mukul)
Take a daily total of 1,500 mg standardized to 5 percent guggulsterone (equivalent to 75 mg of guggulsterones). Guggul, an Ayurvedic herb, reduces cholesterol levels and increases HDL. A twelve-week study demonstrated that 1,500 mg of guggulipid reduced total cholesterol by an average of 22 percent and triglycerides by 25 percent. A different study of 233 people with elevated cholesterol levels showed that Guggul worked better than the cholesterol-lowering drug clofibrate. Only people who took Guggul had improvements in HDL cholesterol.

Natural Prescription #7 Antioxidant formula
Take a complex of antioxidants or a multivitamin, as directed on container. Several of the antioxidants prevent cholesterol oxidation.

Acai berries are among the very best sources of naturally-occurring plant sterols and stanols
Plant sterols in blueberry bind to receptors to decrease free cholesterol in the blood;
Green tea contains compounds called polyphenols. Polyphenols are 40 times stronger than vitamins C and E in their ability to mop up free radical damage all over your body - but especially in your cardiovascular system. The polyphenols in green tea help slow the absorption of extra triglycerides in the blood. In fact, a study published in the Journal of Nutrition states that green tea can reduce triglycerides as much as 20%.
Gingko biloba has been traditionally used to lower blood cholesterol for centuries; it has also been used to help lower blood pressure.

Privita   contains Pomegranate and Green Tea (antioxidant as well as plant sterols)
Acai/Resveratrol/Macqui- contains Green Tea, grapeseed and Acai (antioxidant as well as plant sterols)
Rhodigandha   contains Pomegranate, Acai and Blueberry (antioxidant as well as plant sterols)

Octovite- contains Vitamin C and E,fish oil, NAC, gingko biloba, rutin, lycopene, lutein, bilberry, goldenseal



Natural Prescription #8 Plant Sterols

Blood cholesterol is derived from the diet and synthesized in the liver. Plant sterols are naturally occurring plant compounds that have structures similar to, yet slightly different from cholesterol. Typical plant sterols are compounds such as Beta-sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol and can be found in vegetables, fruits. legumes, nuts, grains and certain oils. Research has shown that these compounds compete with the absorption of dietary cholesterol as well as inhibit the reabsorption of endogenous cholesterol in the gastrointestinal tract. Supplementation with plant sterols can significantly lower cholesterol levels and have been shown to work synergistically with other therapies for lowering cholesterol. Numerous foods including orange juice, rice drink, and margarine now incorporate plant sterols, or sterol esters. lncreasingly, dietary supplements are now incorporating plant sterols and using the health claim that has been allowed for products containing at least 800 mg of plant sterols daily. The real catch, however, is that plant sterols appear to be most effective in dosages of one to two grams per day. The average American, according to Udo Erasmus, Ph.D., and author of Choosing Healthy Fats, gets a paltry 200 milligrams of plant sterols per day. A typical vegetarian diet contains roughly 350 milligrams per day. Even the most sterol-rich diet in the world, the Japanese, includes only about 400 milligrams on a daily basis. In short, says Judd, you “can’t even come close” to consuming enough plant sterols to have a significant impact on your LDL cholesterol through natural foods alone.

Natural Prescription #9 Sytrinol

Sytrinol is a unique and powerful ingredient for maintaining cholesterol and triglycerides. It is a patented combination of citrus PMFs (polymethoxylated flavones) and alpha, delta and gamma tocotrienols derived from palm fruit (U.S. patents #6,251,400, and #6,239,114). Clinical studies in both animals and humans support Sytrinol's role in reducing total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol as well as triglycerides.

Its action includes

1) Decreases apolipoprotein B which is needed for LDL cholesterol synthesis

2) Decreases action of an enzyme in the liver that makes triglycerides

3) Inhibit HMG-CoA reductase in the liver, the enzyme responsible for regulating cholesterol synthesis in the liver.

Sytrinol provides a patented and well-researched combination of flavonoids derived from the peel of tangerines and tocotrienols derived from palm. Within the peel of certain fruits, compounds belonging to a class of flavonoids called polymethoxylated flavones (PMFs) can be found.

Natural Prescription #10 Cardio- Edge

Cardio-Edge is a scientifically-based cardiovascular and cholesterol support with Sytrinol, plant sterols and pomegranate extract.

The combination of Sytrinol, plant sterols, and pomegranate extract present in Cardio-Edge results in a formula that embodies the most recent science to help maintain cardiovascular health and support healthy cholesterol levels.

Coupled with other nutrients that are well-known for their cardioprotective properties such as Coenzyme q-10, Vitamin B complex, and Omega 3 fatty acids, the addition of Sytrinol, pomegranate and plant sterols (Cardio-Edge) offer strong new weapons to help maintain optimal cardiovascular health.






Natural Prescription #11 HDL RX

HDL Rx is an all-inclusive formula combining essential vitamins and minerals, at levels recommended by the American Heart Association, with key amino acids, powerful antioxidants and traditional herbal extracts to provide superior support for cardiovascular health.
Clinically studied at Scripps Memorial Hospital (La Jolla, CA), HDL Rx has been shown to increase beneficial HDL levels up to 23% and increase HDL-2 (the best cholesterol) 50%. It also has been shown to reduce homocysteine and hsCRP levels and support healthy blood circulation. This is a 6 month study led by Dr. Goodman who has also designed the formulation of HDL Rx.




Natural Prescription #12 Colon and Liver Cleanse


A liver cleanse is an important part of a natural cholesterol treatment plan. Your liver creates 3 to 8 times the cholesterol that a normal diet contains. If you cut your cholesterol intake completely, you would still be getting 75% to 95% of the cholesterol you are getting today. Performing a liver cleanse will make your liver more efficient and effective at performing all its functions, including making cholesterol. Therefore, cleansing your liver is one of the best things you can do to regain balance of your cholesterol. Be sure to drink enough water to flush the cholesterol and eliminate the excess.

Natural Prescription #13 Coenzyme Q10

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), an important antioxidant involved in cellular energy production, is made naturally by your body. In people with high cholesterol, levels of CoQ10 tend to be lower. In addition, certain cholesterol-lowering drugs called statins appear to deplete natural levels of CoQ10 in the body. Therefore, some researchers think that taking a coenzyme Q10 supplement can be beneficial for those on statin medications.

Natural Prescription #14 Lower Homocysteine Levels

Homocysteine, an amino acid in the blood, is associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. Some medical experts predict that homocysteine levels will prove to be as important as cholesterol in predicting heart health.

In fact, they expect measuring homocysteine levels will become a part of regular cardiac risk assessments.

B6, B12 and folate are useful in reducing homocysteine levels

Fish Oil and Coenzyme Q10

Q. Why do I need coenzyme Q10? Your body typically starts losing coenzyme Q10 after you turn 40. If you don’t have heart issues, or a family history of heart problems, taking a maintenance dose of coenzyme Q10 will go a long way in preventing future problems. Plus, it boosts your energy. You also need to supplement with coenzyme Q10 if you’re taking statin drugs since they can deplete your coenzyme Q10 levels. Coenzyme Q10 at a glance: Strengthens and energizes your heart Increases cellular and physical energy Fights age-accelerating free radicals Promotes normal homocysteine levels Support healthy cholesterol levels Supports immune health

 Q. What is coenzyme Q10?

A. Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like substance found in every cell’s mitochondria. It’s a necessary part of the chain of events that turns food into energy throughout your body. Without that energy, everything stops. That’s why I call coenzyme Q10 the spark of life. This is why your heart thrives with high levels of coenzyme Q10—it requires enormous amounts of energy. Coenzyme Q10 is also an antioxidant. Since it’s in every cell, it fights free radicals everywhere in your body. Your brain, arteries, joints, eyes all get tremendous protection against oxidation, a main cause of aging.

 Q. How much coenzyme Q10 should I take?

 A. Not everyone needs a large daily dose. If you’re currently dealing with heart concerns or taking statin drugs, you need to supplement with a high daily dose. If you are looking for preventive measures, a baseline coenzyme Q10 dose will do. Most patients I’ve worked with fall into the high-dose category, but a lot of people fall somewhere in between the two ends of the spectrum. The coenzyme Q10 “cheat sheet” below should help you determine your needs.

 At-a-glance coenzyme Q10 dosage recommendations:


Currently dealing with heart concerns; closely monitoring multiple risk factors, including blood pressure, cholesterol, CRP levels, homocysteine, 200 mg daily or more

Looking to greatly increase your physical energy and stamina, as well as protect your heart 100-200 mg daily

Concerned about your family history and/or have been told to watch certain risk factors such as cholesterol, weight, and homocysteine levels. 50-100 mg daily

Over 40 and looking to keep your heart strong and energy levels high. 30-50 mg daily

 Q: Where do I find Coenzyme Q10?

 A: CoQ10 can be found naturally in fish, meat, oil, beans and wheat. Although present in food, CoQ10 is considered as a vitamin that the body cannot synthesize therefore CoQ10 supplementation will be very helpful to the human’s body. Since CoQ10 serves as an agent of energy producer within every cell of the body, the optimal amount of CoQ10 intake is found to have some benefits.

 Q: What are the benefits of Coenzyme Q10?

 A: CoQ10 is proven successful in reducing the symptoms of: Periodontal disease High blood pressure Congestive heart failure (CHF)

 Q. Should I take a coenzyme Q10 supplement that has other nutrients?

 A. A natural partner for coenzyme Q10 is fish oil, or any source abundant in omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFAs). EFA’s are also critical for a healthy heart, yet they provide benefits that differ from coenzyme Q10. Taking the two together gives you complete coverage for a strong, healthy heart. Scienctific studies suggest that Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and omega 3 fish oil if taken together will have the maximum benefit. This is because the natural form of CoQ10 is in crystalline powder, which is insoluble in water, but has high solubility in lipids/fats (fat-soluble).

It is recommended to consume CoQ10 together with Fish Oil as it contains rich amount of fats for CoQ10 to be absorbed optimally into the blood stream for your everyday health.

Taking care of psoriasis from the inside out.

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease causing an overproduction of skin cells. This results in thickened patches of skin, which are red and scaly and often itchy and painful. The patches most commonly appear on the knees, elbows, scalp, hands, feet, back, fingernails and toenails.

Detoxify the bowels and liver to eliminate a possible overgrowth of Candida albicans or other microbes that may be infecting the body. To do that, be sure to drink plenty of water every day (usually 10 to 12 cups) and supplement with a high quality probiotic supplement.

One of the main gut problems in people with psoriasis appears to be faulty digestion of protein; this, in turn, creates excessive toxicity in the bowel, which weakens the gut lining and allows substances to intoxicate the rest of the body. This can lead to skin problems including psoriasis and other forms of inflammation. A digestive enzyme supplement taken with each main meal should also help. The body naturally produces proteolytic enzymes (which digest protein) but may not be producing enough, so taking a source of these may help.-Look out for a formula containing protease - the broad name for enzymes which digest protein.

Psoriasis is an immune-mediated disease, so it follows that fish oil—if it alters immune reactivity—could improve psoriasis.

Milk thistle stops the breakdown of substances that contribute to psoriasis. Some herbal practitioners suggest tea or tincture made with milk thistle to help alleviate the symptoms of psoriasis.

Lecithin: Lecithin is also considered a remarkable remedy for psoriasis. The patient may take six to nine lecithin capsules a day-two or three capsules before or after each meal. If taken in the form of granules, four tablespoonfuls may be taken daily for two months. The dosage may be reduced thereafter to two tablespoons.

Psorisias and Diet

If your body chemistry is too acid you must eat more alkaline foods to assist psoriasis treatment. You can test your acid/alkaline balance by using simple litmus paper. If your urine is under +7, you are too acid.

Balancing your diet - Acid/Alkaline

When food is metabolised by the body the end products are either acidic or alkaline. Acids are compounds of elements, which give away hydrogen ions, alkalines are compounds of elements which attract hydrogen ions. The body needs both acids and alkalines for its metabolism but we have more difficulty getting rid of acids than alkalines. It is therefore easy for an accumulation of excess acids to occur which can cause us to get rheumatism or skin problems such as psoriasis. To avoid this, aim for a diet which is 70% alkaline and 30% acid. One of the simplest ways to immediately create more alkalinity in your body is to drink so-called superfood powdered drinks. Choose a brand that contains ingredients with high alkaline values such as spinach, broccoli, carrot, wheatgrass, barley grass, chlorella, alfalfa and sprouted grain powders. Many of these ingredients are contained in Green cell Therapy.


Milk thistle, lactobacillus, and digestive enzymes are in Green cell therapy.

Light, especially sunlight, has long been known to have healing powers, but it wasn't until the 1980's that science began discovering how specific wavelengths of light could have specific positive effects on human physiology, especially the skin. For instance, today narrowband light is used to treat several skin conditions like acne, psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo. And light therapy has also found its way into the cosmetic world as an effective method for skin rejuvenation. We have the Omnilux light. Using the Omnilux Plus combined with the Omnilux Revive offers an alternative to the current treatments for psoriasis without the side effects. Clinical studies show impressive reductions in erythema, surface area, and infiltration of plaque psoriasis when treated with Omnilux light therapy only over a 5 wk period.





Sexibalm contains Coconut oil and various essential oils beneficial for psoriasis. Can be used with the Omnilux light to aid penetration.

Tea Tree Oil, also known as melaleuca oil, is renowned for its special remedial properties and has been used by Australian Aborigines for hundreds of years. Apart from chewing on its leaves, the aborigines used it for treating many skin-ailments, such as burns, cuts, and psoriasis! This essential oil is steam-distilled from a tree native to Australia, and acts as an antiseptic, a mild anaesthetic and a disinfectant, thanks to a compound called ‘terpinen-4-ol’. It is so useful that tea-tree oil became standard issue for Australian soldiers during World War 2! It is also great for treating scalp-psoriasis, and can be mixed directly into the shampoo before every wash.

Lavender Oil is a firm favourite for many – it smells just like that perfume your terrifying elderly aunt uses, and it’s great for psoriasis! It is a species of mint that grows in the Mediterranean, and bears very recognisable purple flowers. The plant has anti-inflammatory compounds called linalool and linalyl aldehyde, and also acts as an antiseptic agent. In addition, the University of Maryland Medical Centre has published studies that have demonstrated the benefits of using lavender oil in controlling pain and limiting scaly skin patches.

Coconut oil also helps in treating various skin problems including psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema and other skin infections.

Vitamin E oil, is a natural treatment for Psoriasis. Rubbing Vitamin E directly on the affected skin will help moisturize and heal the skin. This natural oil will also help prevent scarring.

Green tea is already well known to be a powerful anti-inflammatory agent with good astringent properties, which makes it a valuable ingredient in skin cleansers, toners and lotions. If it also "induces capsase 14 production", the missing link in psoriasis, it may be helpful to use a poultice of green tea on such lesions.

Hair growth herbal support for hormonal imbalances

Hair loss affect about 70% of women during perimenopause. The symptoms of perimenopause usually last for the whole menopause transition (until the mid 50's), but some women may experience them for the rest of their life. Menopause is not an illness, but a natural process in a woman's body. The symptoms of menopause are just indicators of changes between the hormones estrogen, testosterone and progesterone. These changes result in a hormonal imbalance in a woman's body and cause the common menopause symptoms. A woman can experience hair loss during other parts of her life also, hormonal imbalance is not always limited to the menopausal transition. Even men experience hair loss during andropause.

Hair loss occurs when the diet is inadequate in the B vitamins - especially B6, biotin, inositol and folic acid; and the minerals magnesium, sulfur and zinc. The B vitamins, especially B5 (pantothenic acid and B3 (niacin), are especially important for hair growth.

Certain essential amino acids are found to control the thinning and thickening of hair in laboratory animals. For example, when rats were fed a diet deficient in magnesium, they lost their hair in bunches. The situation was even more serious with some other B-vitamins. When rats were fed a diet low in biotin or inositol, they became hairless! This nutrient-deficient condition was found to be reversible. When the rats were fed a diet that was rich in B vitamins, it resulted in the complete restoration of hair.

Heavy intake of vitamin supplements, in some cases, have resulted in stimulating hair growth. Men deficient in vitamin B6 often lose their hair. When they are deficient in folic acid, some men became completely bald! As in case of animals, when normal intake of theses vitamins were restored, the hair also returned in most instances.

If your hair loss begins around the onset of menopause, you can maintain hormonal balance (and hence hair thickness) with herbs containing plant-based estrogens, such as dong quai (Angelica sinensis) or ashwaganda (Withania somnifera), suggests Linda Page, N.D., Ph.D., a naturopath and author of Healthy Healing (Healthy Healing Publications, 1997). Other herbs that exert mild estrogenic effects include damiana (Turnera diffusa), black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) and sage (Salvia officinalis).

Some people believe that hair loss is a result of bad genes and stress. These may be true at some point but a healthier and thicker hair won’t just fall off your scalp just like that, right? There are lots of vitamins out there that can make your hair and nails thicker and your skin firmer. Why not start early and naturally thicken your hair strands before they start to get thin and fine?

For example, B vitamins—namely B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, biotin, folic acid, and so on can effectively prevent hair loss if taken regularly. Did you know that the majority of hair loss happens when a person’s diet is deficient in B vitamins? B vitamins are essential for hair regrowth, hair strengthening, and overall hair health, including scalp health. Without B vitamins, old and brittle hair will shed and no new hair follicles are made to replace fallen hair.

Other vitamins and minerals that are important to hair loss prevention include Vitamin A, C, and E and trace minerals such as manganese and zinc. Zinc stimulates hair growth by enhancing our body’s immune function. Vitamin E helps in better blood circulation all over our body, including our scalp. The more freshly oxygenated blood that passes through our scalp, the more the scalp can stimulate hair growth. Manganese controls levels of calcium, which in huge uncontrolled numbers can lead to hair loss.

If there’s one thing in nature that contains all of the above vitamins and minerals that are needed to prevent hair loss, it’s none other than the Acai Berry! Yes, it is one of today’s “super fruits” because of its abundant content of essential vitamins, minerals, and other bio-nutrients.

Essential fatty acids (flaxseed oil, primrose oil, and salmon oil are good sources) improves hair texture. Prevents dry, brittle hair. (Found in Female Balance and Fish oil)

Vitamin C aids in improving scalp circulation. It is important to maintain capillaries that carry blood to the follicles. (Found in Maqui/Resveratrol/Acai Ultimate)


Vitamin E increases oxygen uptake, which improves circulation to the scalp. It improves health and growth of hair. Since hair health is tied to the immune health, vitamin E is believed to stimulate hair growth by enhancing the immune function. (Found in Maqui/Resveratrol/Acai Ultimate)

Deficiency in zinc can contribute a lot to hair shedding because without zinc and other related minerals, you hair shafts get weakened, causing hair breakage and very slow hair regrowth. Zinc benefits for hair include promotion of cell reproduction, tissue growth and repair of broken tissues. It also maintains the oil-secreting glands that are attached to your hair follicles, thus decreasing their chances of falling off. (Zinc is found in Octovite)

Coenzyme Q10 - Improves scalp circulation. Increases tissue oxygenation. It is also very important for heart health. (Found in Fish Oil/Coenzyme Q10)


Incorporating green tea into your diet may help combat or help prevent hair loss. One of the most powerful antioxidants in green tea is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Studies conducted by the Saitama Cancer Center Research Institute in Japan and the Seoul National University College of Medicine both show evidence that EGCG stimulates hair growth. (Found in Maqui/Resveratrol/Acai Ultimate)

Ginkgo Biloba has been in use in China for more than 5 centuries, from last 2 decades even Europe is widely using this tree's extracts for various purposes. Ginkgo Biloba possess special property of helping regulate the blood circulation in a body, when the extract is taken. The use of Ginkgo Biloba will boost the blood flow to the peripheral parts of the body and the fine capillaries, both of which indicates scalp as one of the parts. The increased circulation will hence bring more oxygen and more nutrients to the scalp, these nutrients are basically essential vitamins A and E along with some other important nutrients which are in our blood after digestion but are not transported to the right place to act, just because of lack of circulation. So when a hair follicle gets it right amount of oxygen and necessary nutrients it will automatically start hair repair and will promote hair growth. (Octovite contains Gingko Biloba)

If your previous hair growth remedies have not worked, consider a vitamin and herbal combination therapy. Hair loss can be a feature of adrenal fatigue and hypothyroidism, which are other hormonal imbalances. Be sure to consult your practitioner to rule out treatable causes of your hair loss.
