Cholesterol Lowering Tea, Ku Ding Tea is wild grown in the five finger mountain of Hainan Island, China. This tea has been used traditionally in China to help lower cholesterol levels. The tea itself has a slightly bitter taste and is not best for casual tea consumption. This tea does, however, reduce cholesterol levels. Generally tea should be consumed daily for 1-3 months to see the most significant changes.*
