Thanks to all that responded...I really appreciate it. I'm planning to do a bit more reading and gain some more knowledge before taking the next steps.
It's helpful knowing what a supportive community this is.
Oh by the way, on the lipitor pill bottle it warns not to drink grapefruit juice...apparently it interferes with the drug. I'm not quite sure how.
One other question I have is...while it's important to change ones diet...how drastic a change does it have to be for someone who loves pizza, steak, pasta, ice cream...etc? I know this probably sounds like a ridiculous question but with moderation can these foods still be enjoyed?
