My DR put me on Lipitor about 20 years ago and I refused to take it. If you walk everyday like you say, your diet is probably next. I take Metamucil twice a day and eat cheerios every morning. I also almost totally gave up beef. When I do eat it, I only eat NY Strip steaks or sirloins or lean burgers. I also eat lots of beans and peas. My cholesterol used to be in the 220's and is now about 170.
