Bergamot lowers cholesterol ---- Significant evidence suggests that Bergamot lowers both total and ldl cholesterol. Bergamot is a flavonoid which has been studied for it's potential effect on human cholesterol levels. The study has shown that in humans there is a natural statin like effect from the flavonoid. The exact dose or bioavailability is still unclear so as a supplement we only have anecdotal evidence suggesting effective dosage. References --- Cappello, A.

Interesting information. I will look into this. I wonder if it has some of the issues with the heart like the statin drugs do when taken for cholesterol. If not then I think I would like that better than taking the statin meds.

For people who may not be aware Bergamot essential oil is infused into earl grey tea. One easy way to incorporate Bergamot into your diet without supplementing.
