Chalk up one anecdotal success story.

I am a physician. I was on lipitor for about 4 years until I found out it was giving me rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown). The manufacturers of statins state that this is a rare side effect and I even counselled my patients that this is about a 1/200 incidence. Well after delving into the research a bit more it turns out that pretty much everyone taking statins has some degree of muscle pathology on biopsy, with the majority being subclinical...but not insignificant. Being a work-out nut this could not be tolerated.

I stopped the Lipitor and went on a low fat diet (20% fat) with Mega Red. To be fair I am also taking a proprietary 3-6-9 omega oil blend as well (Udo's Blend) although it is not clear that this affects cholesterol levels and makes no claims to. I have been on the Mega Red for about 2 months and the low fat diet for about 2 weeks and got my levels rechecked. Total cholesterol went from 240 (pre-lipitor) to 179. LDL from 160 to 119 and HDL from 35 to 40. All as good or better than I got on 20 mg of Lipitor.

Now I no longer have to worry about muscle breakdown and my LFT's are normal for the first time in 4 years. As an added bonus I can get this locally for about $27 for a 4-month supply (with coupon and buy-1-get-1 deals) which is about 1/4 the cost of Lipitor. Well this is one anecdotal success story so take it for what it's worth. I have put a lot of energy into exercizing and going low fat as well so under those circumstances I can say that it seems to work for me andI am very happy with the results.

Reviewer: M. cappello,
Product is difficult to find in retail and was easily found through amazon. Was recommended by a doctor to try in the aid of lowering cholestral, and I, a person who cannot tolerate taking fish oil because of the size of the pill, let alone 3-6 a day, find Mega Red Krill sized right and easy, taking only 1 pill daily. Priced right and delivered efficiently.
Works for Me!

These Schiff MegaRed Omega-3 softgels are definately a keeper. Absolutely no aftertaste at all!!! The aftertaste was my biggest problem with other omega-3 fish oil softgels-made me sick in the stomach. The Schiff softgels are tiny, which is great for anyone who has difficulties with large size capsules/softgels. I love these and highly recommend =)

    I won’t know for sure until I have my chloresterol checked again. However the service from the vender was very good.
