Cardiol, Eulipid or Meaquor: Which Supplement to Reduce Cholesterol Levels Without Side Effects?

Dear Stefano,


Regarding the side effects you experienced after taking Armolipid plus, I can tell you that to date we have never received similar reports from customers who regularly use Cardiol.


However, to avoid similar issues, which could also be related to a greater sensitivity you may have towards an ingredient in the formulation, I recommend trying Eulipid. Eulipid is a supplement that does not contain red yeast rice and whose main ingredient is Berberine, a compound with marked lipid-lowering action.


The formulation also contains bioflavonoids and policosanols which, together with resveratrol, tocotrienols, and Coenzyme Q10, are useful to rebalance blood levels of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. Eulipid can be a valid alternative for the treatment of dyslipidemias, especially in cases of lack of response or intolerance to statin treatment.


The recommended daily dose is 1 tablet, preferably before dinner. One package is therefore sufficient for one month of supplementation. Take it for at least 8 weeks and then repeat the tests to verify the effectiveness of the treatment. Naturally, I recommend you always inform your doctor when starting a dietary supplement alongside other pharmacological therapies.


If you also want to take Omega-3 fatty acids, you can combine 1 or 2 pearls of Omegor Vitality 1000 before a main meal: this helps improve absorption and digestibility of the product. I hope I have been helpful and remain available for further information.
