Ping!...................
Take your nattokinase
It’s about time...thanks!
But hey, a lot of drugs got sold, so there is that.
I am absolutely certain that statins have been prescribed, because big Pharma makes a shit pot of money from them, so generations of medical students were indoctrinated that statins are critical and failure to prescribe them to a heart attack victim is malpractice. I have almost completely cut mine out, after suffering a heart attack. I used the acid watcher diet for a reflex problem and it resulted in cutting my total cholesterol and a half and my LDL in half. Mainly, I am oh, because it cut the inflammation in my body.
Amen! Let the truth come out about big Pharma and they’re Wicked push to put everyone on drugs. Essentially practicing sorcery

High levels of Small Particulate LDL (LDL-P) does cause the problems claimed, and you get that from carbohydrates. This is not measured unless specifically requested.
High levels of Overall LDL (simply called “LDL”) only matters if the small particulate level (see above) is high, otherwise not a concern. This is always measured in the Basic Lipid Panel.
Eating meat/eggs (and other ‘naughty’ foods) does NOT increase LDL-P, but often will increase Overall LDL, and since only Overall LDL is measured, doctors have been trained to tell you, without evidence (that being an LDL-P measurement), that high Overall LDL is unhealthy and you need to stop eating meat and eggs, and only eat vegetable and so-called “Healthy Carbs” (which do not exist in the real world).
By the way, the above conforms the Globalist goal of ending Red Meat consumption, due to its impact on Climate Change, so don’t bother expecting the medical community to come to its senses. That’s not permitted.
Absolutely. I’ve always said Big Pharma isn’t in business to cure disease, they’re in business to *treat* disease. They make no money if they cure something, but rake in trillions treating health conditions.
How your body reacts to cholesterol is the killer. I worked with a guy who had high cholesterol numbers and major plaque issues in his arteries in his 30’s. All hereditary. He was strict SDA so it wasn’t diet.
If you do a statin, you only need a low dose unless you have a genetic problem.
The doctor tried to get me on statins.
I refused.
By the way, should have mentioned the Statin connections. Not sure of the effect of Statins on Small LDL-P, but they will lower Overall LDL. But then, again, that’s only good if the Small LDL-P goes down with it, but I’m not sure anyone’s even bothered to check that.
Looney alert...Keep eating fried cheese each meal and see what happens.
“Adults over the age of 60 with higher LDL levels generally live longer.”
This is due to the fact that, mentioned earlier in the article, that LDL is REQUIRED for many body functions...so hammering it down with Statins is a blunt instrument that effects the body in many bad ways, some of which are still being discovered.

One thing I often find, is that in studies, data is cherry-picked to give studies the appearances they want to find. That’s BS science.
