How My Husband Fixed His Cholesterol Levels Without Medication. My husband has had issues with his cholesterol levels for most of his adult life. When we met, his triglycerides and cholesterol levels were out of control. At that time, the doctor decided to put him on Gemfibrozil to help him. While he was taking this medication, his levels improved. The issue came when he was taken off the medication and they shot back up. We quickly got on a low-fat diet and were able to improve his levels quickly. The issue we now faced was that we improved one area but hurt his HDL levels (good cholesterol). They were low and nothing we tried helped improve this until recently. Join me today and learn how my husband fixed his cholesterol levels without medication.
