Taking Eulipid for soft plaques

Dear Emanuele,

Your TG/HDL ratio is good: it is important that it remains below 2 to maintain optimal health.

Eulipid is a supplement that does not contain fish oil and whose main component is berberine, which combines a lipid-lowering action with a blood sugar-lowering effect similar to that of metformin.

Eulipid can represent a valid alternative for the treatment of dyslipidemia (as well as metabolic syndrome), especially in cases of lack of response or intolerance to statin treatment. Since your cardiologist intended to treat your case with statins, I preferred to suggest the natural alternative that is closer to your needs, more easily tolerated, and very effective.

Best regards.
