Here is what others have said about the WOMAN Challenge! (Share your success!) "In November my total cholesterol was 239 (HDL=60, LDL=156). Just today I had it rechecked and my total is 217 (HDL=70, LDL=117). Whoopee! No statins for me. Small diet changes plus more biking/walking to commute as much as I can equals better health!"
