Has Anyone Tried?

Green Coffee Bean Extract? Dr. Oz has talked about it for lowering cholesterol. The claim is lower it 44% in 3 weeks. I can't help but think that it's relative to how high it is to begin with, but if I could lower it 10% before my next bloodwork in a month I could get my dr off my back!

I seem to remember the "maximum" cholesterol number used to be higher when they first started spouting off about it. I really feel a lot of it is just bs from the drug companies to sell their medication. And if it was really high, I could probably see me taking it. But since I'm only at a "shocking" 227, I don't see the need to deal with the side effects I got when my last dr talked me into trying it. (I stayed on a week before I decided that the side effects weren't worth the benefits.)

So, any comments?
