It is
therefore much better and wiser to
improve lifestyle and go on plant - based unrefined diet including barley fibre (beta - glucan), oat bran, garlic, onion, ground flax seed, pulses, alfalfa, karela, nettle, niacin, l - arginine, lecithin, etc. and use other natural remedies which are equally or even more effective in lowering blood glucose and bad
cholesterol as drugs yet without causing any harm.
A better solution — and, happily, a much less invasive one — is drug therapy to reduce blood
cholesterol (and
therefore plaque), to thin the blood (
improving flow), and, in some cases, to limit the pace of the heart (easing its burden).
