“I’ll never take a statin again. There’s a reason for that. 893 ratings from patients. Could drinking poison Hemlock be any worse. I have zero inflammation in my body now in my 70s and that’s from no longer allowing myself to be a guinea pig.”

Can’t blame you, the research on statins just keeps getting worse. They do lower LDL, but that is not necessarily a good thing. What counts is HDL and especially Triglycerides...get those numbers good and you’re all set.

“the research on statins just keeps getting worse.”

And “they” wonder why most of us were reluctant to take the Covid shot which hadn’t been researched basically at all. Statins have been around for decades, and they’re still researching its issues. In which case, everyone on them is a literal guinea pig.
