In an ideal world, every statin patient would be supplementing with this bundle. If you're taking (over even trying to avoid) a statin, support for a healthy lipid panel starts here!
Bergamot, in some cases and with the approval of your provider, can actually replace a statin. It may also enhance the results of a statin or allow you to take a lower strength of a statin medication. I works to optimize your lipid levels in a variety of ways and has been investigated for many other properties including hypoglycemic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, vasoprotective and anti-tumor. When compared to statins, bergamot boasts less concerns for drug interactions and few side effects. Heartburn is the primary side effect observed and it can be mitigated.
It's suggested to take before a meals, but if that side effect is observed then the dosage should be reduced and/or spaced out throughout the day and taken with food instead.

This combination is featured here in a monoglyceride form, meaning each component is 3X better absorbed versus a typical ethyl ester form. Keep reading for more:
