Message definition (Lipid-lowering agent)
* [[Lecithin]] has been shown to effectively decrease cholesterol concentration by 33%, lower LDL by 38% and increase HDL by 46%.
* [[Phytosterol]]s may be found naturally in plants. Similar to ezetimibe, phytosterols reduce the absorption of cholesterol in the gut, so they are most effective when consumed with meals. However, their precise mechanism of action differs from ezetimibe.
* [[Omega-3 fatty acid|Omega-3]] supplements taken at high doses can reduce levels of triglycerides. They are associated with a very modest increase in LDL (~5%).
* [[Choline]]
* [[Pycnogenol]]
* [[Berberine]]
* [[Red yeast rice]] is the natural source from which statins were discovered, but the FDA currently disallows any RYR with significant amounts of statin to be sold as a dietary supplement
* [[Boswellia serrata]]
* [[L-arginine]] may enhance the effects of a Statin, but will not lead to a reduction in cholesterol alone.
* [[Flaxseed oil]]
