Anecdotally, I *did* drop my total cholesterol levels from 246 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) to 183 mg/dl. That's 63 points. I take 2 of the "extract 500" artichoke tablets twice a day with food (for a total of 4 daily tablets), plus I also take 1-10 milligram tablet of policosanol at the same time I take the artichoke herb (a total of 2-10 mg policosanol tablets per day). My LDL (low density cholesterol is the "bad" cholesterol) went from 144 to 99 mg/dl. My HDL (the "good" high density cholesterol) went from 81 to 66 mg/dl.
I stopped my regimen for about 4 months and my total cholesterol levels went back up, so I'm back "with the program." I do feel better. I haven't noticed any side effects, but as with any herbal product, everyone's body is different, and may react differently, so please be aware of those issues.
Results may vary. One of my friends tried the artichoke tablets, and his total cholesterol dropped 20 points, but I don't know what dosage he took. He said he is pleased with the turn-around.
One advantage, as the previous reviewer has pointed out, is that I've noticed a decrease in my tendency to constipation.
