We must understand the importance of the GP's role when we become concerned about our health. There is a natural compound in nature that has been studied in various human trials for its effect in reducing total cholesterol level, especially LDL - while maintaining good HDL level, it is the tocotrienol. In nature, vitamin E exists in 8 forms - 4 tocotrienols and 4 tocopherols but we often find on the shelves in drug stores single alpha-tocopherol products. Studies did not find tocopherol having any effect in reducing cholesterol at all but tocotrienol does. While it is recommended to get these compounds from natural dietary sources - such as vegetable oils, rice bran, it is not always possible to get sufficient or effective levels without the need to consume very large amount of that particular food source. I am using tocotrienol for general maintenance, and monitoring my cholesterol level at the same time. There are other health benefits from tocotrienol - protects the brain from stroke induced injuries, reverses arteriosclerosis.. etc. Probably you already knew. Dear Health Blogger,
