The largest study ever conducted, regarding this class of drugs, showed that they actually degraded cardiovascular health. In order to achieve the same level of health as someone in the control group, drug-takers needed to exercise vigorously. Your body needs cholesterol.

The reality is that there's no good/bad cholesterol, just trans fats & the cells that transport/store them. Trans fats are utilized poorly, causing arterial plaque & oxidization during oxygen transport.

You have my very sincere condolences for your loss.

Big pharma has killed one of mine too, in exactly the same way, with exactly the same drug.

Big pharma has damaged my life and my loved ones on two occasions.

The first time I didn't see it coming. The impact was devastating.

The second time I tried to warn, but my warning went unheeded.

It's a powerless feeling when you lose someone this way.

You can warn people of the danger, but that doesn't mean they will listen to the warning.

However, if we are to have dignity in our lives, then we have to allow others to have dignity as well. That includes allowing others the ability to make their own choices of their own free will.

I reserve the right to follow my own course in medical matters, to pursue the path that I feel is best for me, based upon the choices I make given the information I have available.

I respect the right of others to do the same - including their right to disregard my advice.

Our love and respect for others demands this of us.

God that’s just awful, man. They’ve been trying to put my mom on cholesterol meds like Lipitor but there’s no way in hell thats happening now. You may have just saved my mom’s life. I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ll be praying for you, your mom, and your family. God Bless.

Statin drugs are inhibitors of HMG-CoA reductase, thereby inhibiting steroid synthesis via the mevalonate pathway, blocking production of steroid hormones. This includes protective progesterone, pregnenolone, DHEA and their metabolites. You’re better to suffer high cholesterol than the side effects of statins. Oxidized cholesterol taken from atherosclerotic plaques are esterified with oleic, arachidonic, docosahexanoic and eicosapentanoic acids. Highly reactive, inflammatory polyunsaturates are the problem in cardiovascular disease and arteriosclerosis.
