Terrible side-effects often are associated with supplements when lowering your Cholesterol. It is important to note, that not all supplements inline with a proper lifestyle (exercise & diet) produce those nasty side-effects. When it comes to making a choice in the type of supplements, there are really only two to select from, man made or natural.

Supplements that are Man Made

Statin drugs are well known to have a positive effect in lowering cholesterol, also they are well known to also cause many of the undesired side-effects. Just two of the side-effects that come from taking Statin drug is muscle aches and kidney dysfunction. When there is a risk of kidney dysfunction it is often best to also take the Co-Enzyme Q10 as an additional supplement to help replace the enzyme that is being destroyed by taking Statin drugs.
