Case Study: JEN lowers cholesterol without medication with Rupa Health

JEN lowers cholesterol by 83 points with Rupa Health

Jen, a 58-year-old woman, sought a natural approach to manage her hypercholesterolemia after a routine check-up revealed her total cholesterol had spiked to 293 mg/dl. Despite maintaining a healthy vegetarian diet and active lifestyle, she was advised by her primary care doctor to take medication, which she wished to avoid. She turned to Rupa Health to help find and address the root cause of her high cholesterol.

Rupa Health provided an integrative solution, creating a customized food-as-medicine meal plan to increase Jen's fiber, protein, and omega-3 intake. They also recommended specific supplements, including a Red Yeast Rice and CoQ10 formula, and advised lifestyle changes like incorporating HIIT workouts and regular blood donation. After five months on this program with Rupa Health, Jen's total cholesterol dropped by 83 points and her LDL decreased by 62 points. Her 10-year risk of a cardiovascular event fell to a better-than-optimal 1.7%, allowing her to successfully manage her cholesterol without medication.
