Does Intake Of Castor Oil Reduce LDL Levels?

I have a sluggish colon and high LDL and was wondering if taking castor oil would help reduce LDL and also solve elimination problems. Have tried muscinex and miralax . I also take crestor med at a low dosage. Doc wants to increase level but makes me very tired and causes me to hiproventalate.

Hi,

In some patients castrol oil decreases LDL. You can try it for a month along low dose of crestor and repeat the analyses in a month, it will show how castrol oil works in your case.

Take care
