1. Milk Thistle

Milk thistle, or Silybum marianum as it is known in the scientific community, has quite a long and storied history of folklore in which it is credited with helping the liver recover. Keeping cholesterol levels where they should be has been demonstrated in recent research to be beneficial. Fifty persons with Type 2 diabetes and very high cholesterol were given Silybum marianum in a clinical research a few years ago. After four months, not only did their blood fat and bad cholesterol levels decrease, but so did their blood sugar levels according to studies.

2. Ginseng

For millennia, ginseng has been used as part of a holistic treatment in Asian medicine. Ginseng was employed in Chinese medicine for several purposes, including cardiovascular health. Green teas, coffees, and even energy drinks are now widely available, and they are just a few of the many well-known items that contain ginseng root. Some research suggests that ginseng helps maintain healthy levels of both good (HDL) and bad (LDL) cholesterol according to studies.

3. Garlic

One of the most widely consumed herbs in the world, garlic is widely valued for its versatility and usefulness. It is a staple in kitchens around the world because it is delicious either raw and cooked and because it is used in so many different dishes. Moreover, you can take it in the form of a pill or capsule.

It has been discovered that garlic offers additional benefits for lowering blood pressure, including regulation and lowering of blood cholesterol levels.

4. Astragalus

The above plant has indeed been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine to strengthen the immune system, often in combination with other herbs, and the practice dates back thousands of years.
