CholBiome Case Study | Cholesterol Reduction | OptiBiotix
- 67-year old male from London with high cholesterol
- Used a scientifically-backed food supplement to lower cholesterol and improve lifestyle
- Cholesterol reduced from 5.5 to 4.5 after taking the food supplement
It wasn’t a shock to now retired stockbroker Andy when he found out that he had high cholesterol at an annual check-up with his GP over 16 years ago, but he knew that he needed to make a change to get his health back on track. “After losing both of my parents to heart conditions, I was slightly concerned about having high cholesterol at first but I was quickly put on medication to lower my cholesterol.”
Andy tried a couple of different prescriptions from his GP to treat his high cholesterol. He struggled with stomach aches from his first two prescriptions, so his GP prescribed a different medication which had virtually no side effects apart from mild stomach bloating. Although this produced some results, it was a slow process – his total cholesterol gradually reduced from 6.6 to 5.5 over a 15-year period. Although it can vary from person to person, the NHS generally advises that a persons’ total cholesterol should not be above 5.
In order to boost his progress, last year Andy decided to try CholBiomeX3, a revolutionary new food supplement which has proven results.
“I wanted to try CholBiomeX3 to see if it would support my prescribed medication and lower my cholesterol even further. It grabbed my attention because it’s made of natural ingredients that are scientifically proven to lower cholesterol.”
So how does CholBiomeX3 work? The food supplement combines three key natural ingredients; the probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum LPLDL®, Vitamin B3 and red yeast rice rich in Monacolin K, which all work together to effectively reduce cholesterol and aid heart health. According to a study by the University of Reading, a 12-week course of LPLDL a key ingredient within CholBiomeX3, has been proven to reduce cholesterol by up to 36.7%. After taking CholBiomeX3 for just two months, Andy’s cholesterol had been reduced by over 13% to a healthy 4.8.
“My GP couldn’t believe it when I came in for a check-up and he saw how much lower my cholesterol was in such a short space of time. He hadn’t heard of CholBiomeX3 before and it came as a surprise when I told him that it was a non-drug-based supplement that was the secret to my success.”
After another month, Andy’s cholesterol had reduced further from 4.8 to 4.5 and his GP decided to take him off his prescribed medication and advised him to just take CholBiomeX3. Andy had suffered mildly from stomach bloating which is known to be one of the long-term side effects of the earlier medication but this has now completely disappeared. Andy says that he feels healthier than he has done in years and has started to feel more optimistic about the future.
Andy caught the travel bug at an early age and has been all over the world as a result. His travels include visits to the Far East, taking a trip down the Nile and going on a train journey across America.
“I didn’t think I would ever come off my prescribed medication but CholBiomeX3 has really helped me turn my health around and continue to pursue my passion for travel.
“I’ve recommended CholBiomeX3 to a couple of friends who have high cholesterol and I’d suggest that anyone who would like to improve their cholesterol should give it a try.” - Andy Horn
