Cholesterol was found at the crime scene trying to stop the inflammation, and then arrested by statins and charged with murder. While sugar, pollution, toxic chemicals, industrialized seed oils & chronic stress made a clean getaway and they are nowhere to be found.
I took a statin for three months. I was told there would be NO side effects. There were severe side effects, I became 'demented' and lethargic. Be careful.
I am a physician of 40 years and just retired last year. My father had severe cardiovascular problems with a pacemaker (that could jumpstart his heart if needed). I always told him do not take statins. He lived to just one week before his 92 birthday. He was not the only patient of mine living between 90-100 years old.
My 65 yo sister is on keto for her epilepsy. Her LDL was very high. But she got the extra analysis of the molecular size of her lipids, which was what some doctors consider lower risk. Then she asked for a carotid artery scan. It came up with ZERO plaque. So they stopped pushing statins on her (she had been on statins prior to keto and they caused her significant pain.)
In October my doctor prescribed me statins 2 weeks ago for the first time in my 57 years… at my check up, the nurse asked if I was having any symptoms or feelings of SELF HARM After a few other similar questions I realized she was referring to side effects of the DRUGS I NEVER took. I never filled the prescriptions for the cholesterol, diabetes or blood pressure medication she prescribed. I started carnivore My a1c dropped My triglycerides dropped My cholesterol went up 😊 My weight dropped 👍🏼
After a heart attack at age 80, I decided to give statins one more try. I quit them three different times because of muscle pain, but I read recently that low doses of statins could be beneficial even though they didn't lower cholesterol to desired levels. After muscle pain and now brain fog, I am finally through with statins for good. Another thing doctors don't tell you about statins is that although they slightly lower the risk of heart attack, they don't lower the risk of death.
I got off all meds 8 years ago! Statins, metoprolol (beta blockers) and several blood thinners! Now I feel great! Turmeric, e.g. is a blood thinner! The problem is daring to stop medication! I made the decision myself without anyone's help and it wasn't easy! Today I am proud of myself!
I survived a widow maker six years ago. I took the prescription for five years. I stopped the meds one year ago. Kept the healthy diet and exercise. Then I moved into the mountains, also one year ago. Had blood work done recently. Everything is fine and I feel great.
In my medical opinion I had a TIA within 8 weeks of taking . I stopped, changed diet to 95% organic-expensive. We will have to start up with Markets selling organic farm food 2x weekly. Preservative free food last way less for freshness. I have stopped 13 meds since. Lost 40 lbs. Doing better. I treat myself better now than most doctors. ❤opinion retired practitioner!
I took stains for over 20 years I'm 72 now..I told the doctor no more.thank you..
