I've been taking the supplements (or at least most of them from Dr. Atkins Vita Nutrient Solution) for 6 weeks. I'm still waiting for my most recent cholesterol results to come in, but pre was:

Total: 222
Hdl: 34
Ldl: not good, maybe 160 ? will repost later when I get home
Triglycerides: 191

So, we shall see if Atkins +Supplements will help, will let ya know. My doc is pushing the Lipitor pretty hard too=) Results should be in Monday.

But, if it is still up, I will add red yeast rice (basically works like a weaker statin, see wholehealthmd.com for details) and increase dosages of other things. Decrease saturated fat while increasing monos (since the verdict on saturated fat still seems cloudy, but monos seem to be excellent for ya).

Hope ya get to stay off Lipitor!
