People who used statins did better than those who hadn’t needed statins for other caused.
Statins have side effects. Muscle aches, tenderness, or weakness are common side effects, and some people may experience abnormal muscle breakdown that can lead to kidney problems. Statins may also increase the risk of developing tendinopathies, which can lead to tendon ruptures. Consult your physician and do your homework.
They can also cause your health to deteriorate to the point where you die. Another drug company scam that the doctors get kickbacks for.
Statins almost put me in a wheelchair after taking them for over 3 years
Absolutely impossible to scientifically quantify. Nonsense.
Even the NIH came out several years ago and said that statins can do bad things and should probably be prescribed less. I struggled with them off and on for 25 years or more going on and off them because of pain, finally just told the doc NO. DONE. But that’s just me. I don’t trust a lot of what they push.
i’ve heard that the latest studies conclusively prove that statins cure halitosis and alopecia and cure colon cancer ... Hmmmm, hmmmm, that there are some GOOD statins, baby!
Inflammation from excessive blood glucose and insulin constantly flowing through your veins is what cause plaque buildup and heart disease.
Statins are just killing of the firemen on the way to the fire.
To stop and reverse metabolic syndrome you have to quit eating food laden in carbs and processed foods full of chemicals and fake molecules.
They also, in many many cases, appear to cause way more harm than they “alleviate”...
I’ve read some things about statin drugs recently & will never go on them. Lowering cholesterol is actually bad unless you’re WAY over the normal amount & they keep lowering what is considered normal. A new level is recommended at 190, instead of 300. But our brains need cholesterol, & I’m much more afraid of living to 90 with dementia than dying of a heart attack at 70.
