Statin Drugs
...any of a group of drugs that act to reduce levels of fats, including
triglycerides and cholesterol in the blood but...
"Consider this: FDA approved drugs, used as prescribed, are killing over 125,000 people every year. Nationally, this makes prescription drugs the fourth leading cause of death after cancer, heart disease and stroke. That does not count death by medical error, which adds 98,000 deaths to this atrocity. Hypnotized by drug ads, the general public is oblivious to the deaths caused by prescription drug use. This is evidenced by their willingness to swallow whatever "the doctor ordered". This is especially true for drugs targeting heart disease."

What should you do about your cholesterol? Popular opinion is that cholesterol is a terrible substance that causes heart disease. Yet medical researchers, who operate independently (meaning no ties to big pharmaceutical companies) state that cholesterol is a fundamental and essential molecule that the human body needs for good health, avoiding cancer and infection, and for clear thinking and strong memory abilities. In fact, it is not widely known, but the dry weight of the human brain is around 8% pure cholesterol. Consequently there are a number of people who took cholesterol-lowering medication and soon developed Alzheimer-like problems that were irreversible.
