Reply to comment by youll_dig-dug in Heart-health supplements ineffective at reducing bad cholesterol. Six widely used dietary supplements promoted for improving heart health – including brands of fish oil, cinnamon, garlic and turmeric – were not effective at lowering “bad” cholesterol more than placebo after 28 days of use. by MistWeaver80

The thing is lifestyle change takes effort and commitment. Supplements do not. So for most people the latter is a more accessible choice.

I don't mean that supplements are not important. I'm trying to say that supplements are better than drugs in the long run if there is no established pathology.
