Citrus Bergamot Extract 1000mg Capsules — Organic 25:1 Citrus Bergamot Supplement with 50% Polyphenols Extract and Black Pepper — Natural Formula Vegan and Non-GMO — 180 Capsules

I have been eating better and losing weight (6 lbs in two months). I started taking this supplement November 15th. I had no side effects and it was easy to swallow, no smell, no aftertaste either. I had my lab work redrawn November 25th(3 month interval from annual lab draw). Triglycerides fell from 250 to 75. HDL went up 3 points. A1c is normal. I will keep taking Bergamot extract and continue a healthy lifestyle. My physician is pleased with my labs. I am sure it is a combination of eating better, losing weight and taking the supplement. Wishing everyone the best in your goal for better health. Cheers!

Im am in my 60s and my family has a history of high cholesterol and heart issues. Above all I want to state I did this with my doctor's knowledge and input!I also was on statins but was a no go due to fatigue and muscle issues. I was also genetically tested and have some genes that indicated I was not a good candidate for statins.I tried this for 3 month. I made sure not to change anything about my diet and made sure to keep my weight stable. I do try to eat healthy whole food and limit processed foods and really limit sweets to whole fruits. But I do have my weak moments (cheese, sometimes pizza, sauces, a drink with dinner on the weekends, etc.). I do not beat myself up as I realize its a lifelong quest to improve myself as I grow older and hopefully wiser at times.Ok so here are the numbers US numbers):Total Cholesterol went from 232 to 225Triglycerides went from 214 to 157 (My doctor and I were impressed with this)HDL went from 67 to 75VLDL went from 37 to 27LDL went from 128 to 123So were do I go from here? My doctor and I decided continuing the bergamot and to monitor my bloodwork closely and now try to hone in on some improvements. I am trying to limit cheese, no takeout, and alcohol. Instead of sauces and takeout pizza incorporated more herbs and spices in to the food including turmeric and ginger. Make my own dressings for my salads. Make my own pizza at home. When I can control what goes into my food I always feel better physically and emotionally when I eat healthy. Alcohol well so many reports are coming out about how it does not help the older brain and its one of the easy things to get rid of for me. I started slow by switching from high calorie drinks to lighter drinks and finally down to a shot of vodka in seltzer water and now I just drink the seltzer water at dinner for. Again if you are a heavy alcohol drinker always seek medical advice.I have been experimenting with food as medicine and losing weight for about 10 years and have a pretty good handle of where my food and weight issues are and how to tweak my diet and exercise to loss weight having lost about 80 pounds over these 10 years and keeping it off. I still have 40 pounds I want off but above all I learned to make small changes slowing and it will stick better and don't beat myself up when I get off track just recognize it and regroup and go again.Again keep your doctor in the loop and as a partner in your journey. Sorry for the long review I just want other to understand this is my journey and how I am doing it. This supplement does work and I am just viewing it as a starting point to get this cholesterol under control and like all things health wise I need to also step up and continue to improve my health in safe and effects ways that work for me.

I like this Bergamot product for the reduction of cholesterol. 2 regular sized capsules equals 1000 mg of Bergamot. The product seems like it's of quality and it doesn't repeat or have an aftertaste. I'll see how well it works after my next doctors visit.

I started taking this after my Dr wanted to put me on high dose statin, it's part of my healthy lifestyle plan more exercise, lose weight, and eating better, my numbers dropped dramatically, I've tried three other brands and this is the one that worked best for me.

In June 2022, my dr said my LDL's were at a point where I needed to consider taking a statin. I am not a big fan of prescription meds so I started researching. What I discovered is that Bergamot is excellent for reducing LDLs and increasing HDLs. I told my dr I had a plan and would come back in 4 months or so to have my blood work checked. In November 2022, blood work again. WOW! My LDLs dropped from 184 to 136. Now granted, I have cut back on pizza, cheese and red meat but even so, at 70, my dr said I have a < 6% chance of having heart attack in the next 10 years. As a side note, Bergamot also helps balance your blood sugar. I seriously do not get the sugar cravings I've had for years.I take two capsules per day. They are tasteless and do not create any type of digestive upset. I will continue to order this product and take for the rest of my life.

I was previously taking another brand (I'll have to go check which one) and bought this one for a change. I found that after two months of this supplement that my cholesterol levels were still sky high. Other brands (and I usually also take guggul, an ayurvedic herb) have been more effective.
