 A Sudden Paralysis: It was after a weekend in St. Augustine, Florida that Jim Olbrich had his too-close-for-comfort brush with death. That night a blood clot rushed into his brain and caused a major hemorrhagic stroke. A stroke that has left Jim walking like Frankenstein.
Jim had driven the two hours back to his home in Orlando. Tired, he went to bed, but found he had trouble rolling over and couldn't easily get into position for sleep.

There are many herbs that are said to be natural remedies for lowering cholesterol. They can be found in any natural market or on many sites online.
