Just trying to weigh the benfits vs the potential side effects.

Total Cholesterol: 243
HDL: 85
LDL: 143
Triglycerides: 76

I'm already excercising and eating a healthy diet so not much to be done there.

Does your healthly diet inlcude not eating white flour products or refined sugars? Getting those out of your diet will drop your cholesterol as well.
