I just wanted to mention I have a similar problem. I do like AL products and take many, so I'm not saying it won't work.
However, my diet and lifestyle are such that I should NOT have high cholesteral, but it was creeping up with age. Very frustrating. I was doing everything right without seeing any change in my bloodwork.
I did try taking AL Cholestacare and, unfortunately, nothing changed after 6 months. I'm not saying the product is not good, but I believe if you are predisposed to high cholesteral, you might not see results.
That's me. I finally gave in and started on a very low dose of Lipator and that made all the difference.
I really didn't want to take medication, but in my case, nothing else worked.

Cholestacare/plant sterols give better results w/higher fiber intake through diet or supplementation. Fibermucil & cholestacare are great together. I have heard Andrew say that the fiber works like a broom. I buy cholestacare for DH & was hoping it would be a TS or monthly special.

Plant sterols help lower LDL cholesterol but don't appear to help HDL cholesterol or Triglycerides. Info from Healthline.
I eat one of Andrew's Choconuvo with my dinner. It helps my cholesterol. I also take fiber plus eat foods with fiber.

I bought his secure replacement bars(48) in the variety. They are Coconut Almond Cookie Crunch and Chocolate Brownie Almond Crunch. I am looking forward to trying them. They are on presale.

Thank you @elated. I also ordered the box of 48, the coconut are the ones I tried last time and loved them. I thought Andrew said when they return there would be new varieties and new packaging in half bars.

These bars are half the size of the original bars he first introduced. I'm sure he'll mention that repeatedly during the presentations on Sunday, since so many complained about the size/calories of the original bars.

Wonder why the peanut butter Secure bars are not returning, they were my favorite am a bit disappointed that there are no new flavors and just having the 2 flavors returning that I tried in the variety pack with the delicious peanut butter ones.
Sure took him a long time in getting them back on air.
Up in the air in deciding if I really enjoyed the 2 flavors as much as the peanut butter bars.
Will sleep on it and decide by morning after watching him if I will go for this Special on HSN.

I love his products and take many of his vitamins. I'll hold out for fruit flavored bars with less fiber, which I hope he makes in the future.

Andrew just said that the peanut bar will be available next month, March.
