I was thrilled when I heard that Dr. OZ actually admitted publicly that artificial sweeteners are to be avoided. These chemical additives aren't the "natural" products advertising leads you to believe and they do cause heart health concerns in many people.
I was even more alarmed by the report on ABC News about the number of prescription drugs pushed on our aging citizens that are causing serious interaction problems.
I'd doing daily on-line walking program this month. What's your exercise plan? And are you getting enough pure water to drink?
And I'm in the process of writing a new report that will be published later this month.
Remember that cholesterol drugs are really not necessary unless you have extremely high levels, over 252, or if you have elevated triglycerides.

Reduce fat. A certain amount of fat is good for a well balanced diet but reduce the amount of fat. Saturated fat affects blood cholesterol levels, so try to eat less full-fat dairy products, cakes, cookies, pastries and burgers and replace with mono saturated fats such as olive and rapeseed oil, nuts and avocado pears. Polyunsaturated fats in small amount helps reduce cholesterol so oily fish (salmon, sardines) and oils like sunflower, corn and soya oil are good.
Saturated fat in real food is essential for health so chose organic butter, 2% of whole milk products.
AVOID rapeseed (canola) as it is toxic to your liver. Also avoid soy oil as both soy and canola are the most GMO products sold. BTW canola oil is a TRANS FAT.
Most vegetable oils carry ar sik, but we support the use of Extra virgin olive oil not sold in plastic bottles.
