As of March 2012, one in three adults over the age of 40 has high cholesterol the CDC claims. The American Heart Association says 102 million Americans age 20 + have elevated cholesterol levels.

Maybe it's time to re-think those statin drugs and their not-so-nice side-effects.

Try this before your Dr puts you on Statins By Kimmy from IA on 02/12/2012
Pros: It works!
Recommended: Yes
Cardioauxin lowered my total cholesterol 65 points in the first 5 weeks I took it. I am unable to take statins as the side affects were horrible for the 4 I tried. I haven't had any side effects from this, and have been taking it for the last 3 years. I take two pills in the morning and two at night.

Better than statins
By Annie from Iowa on 09/06/2011
Pros: no side effects
Recommended: Yes
I have been taking Cardioauxin for 2 years with great results and no side effects. My physician had started me on statins 3 years ago and I had terrible side effects from the 3 that he tried. I told him "the cure was worse than the disease" and that I wouldn't try any more prescription drugs for lowering my cholesterol. I asked my Chiropractor if he had any recommendations other than Niacin and he told me about Cardioauxin. My cholesterol went down 65 points in 6 weeks!!! My physician now tells me to stay on it!

Works on making a healthy heart By Inge H Cannon from Yuma, AZ US on 10/22/2009

Mom was run down and tired all the time. She had some heart problems. My chiropractor suggested Cardioauxin. My Mom's energy improved significantly. She showed the bottle to her medical doctor, who said a lot that is in CardioAuxin is good for the heart. She has continued to use CardioAuxin even after her pacemaker. It has helped her recovery tremendously. She swears by it now and tells every one about it.
