He has a family history of high Cholesterol and has tried many things to lower it. He's on medicines and was on Lipitor but is off that. He found that Quaker Instant Oatmeal works for him. He makes muffins according to the recipe on the box. Now he's trying Promise Activ Super Shots. Once we read the information packet on the Promise Activ Super Shots we decided to give them a try. We both are working on our Cholesterol and we both like healthy foods and yogurt in particular.

The Promise Activ Super Shots come in a small four pack of bottles 3 oz each ($3.99 for four). They come in three flavors; Strawberry, Peach and Raspberry. Each portion contains 2 grams of natural plant sterols. Natural plant sterols help block the absorption of Cholesterol that you would ordinarily absorb in the foods you eat. So, this can significantly lower LDL (bad) Cholesterol. You get Heart Health essentials, 200 mg Omega 3 ALA, Omega 6 and Vitamin E. The company suggests that you drink active Super shots at least once a day or enough times that you get 0.4 grams of the plant sterol. According to studies 2-3 grams of plant sterol could produce a log term reduction in cholesterol of 20%.
