After I told my doctor that I stopped all my medication, he suggested too the niacin and also policosanol. This last supplement I also read about in Andreas Moritz book.
I posted my cholesterol test on the cholesterol forum and met people who had my problem, the triglycerides were way out of line. This has been for years but decided not to worry about it. No prescription drugs for me anymore.
Someone suggested, since I eat according to my Ayurveda bodytype, I might be eating too much fruit and should add more veggies instead. I have now cut back to 1 fruit a day and have added some meat 3x a week.
On the http://www.euroamericanhealth.com website (though it is about alkalinity)I read about metabolic typing and he suggested that people with high triglycerides have trouble with alkalinity and should eat different from what works for most people.
I am bodytype II according to that site and have changed my eating habits. Time will tell when I go back for a test next year if this is going to help.
