Completely Rethinking the Link Between Statins, Cholesterol, & Heart Disease, w/ Dr. Aseem Malhotra https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RU3Ouxt1vs
You may be under the impression that statin drugs are safe and side-effect free. In fact, your doctor may even believe this. Statin drugs have numerous side effects, some quite serious. This video explains 10 worrisome things that statin drugs can do to your body. Everyone taking a statin needs this video shared with them...
The research supporting statin drugs is very weak, and the statin side effects often make the possible benefit not worth the risk. Don't blindly believe high cholesterol is bad for your health, do your research. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgEv-tOAY8M
Statins, the scientific data does not support these drugs helping you avoid a heart attack or stroke. https://www.naturalhealth365.com/undeniable-truth-cholesterol-lowering-drugs-linked-to-memory-loss-and-brain-impairment.html
"Statin drugs are useless at best, and cardiotoxic at worst."
Dr. Dwight Lundell, former Chief of Staff and Chief of Surgery at Banner Heart Hospital in Arizona told the world not to take statin drugs. “We physicians with all our training, knowledge and authority often acquire a rather large ego that tends to make it difficult to admit we are wrong. So, here it is. I freely admit to being wrong. As a heart surgeon with 25 years experience, having performed over 5,000 open-heart surgeries, today is my day to right the wrong with medical and scientific fact.”
A recent study in the journal of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention reported that women who have used cholesterol-lowering statin drugs for more than 10 years have double the risk of two common types of breast cancer: invasive ductal carcinoma and invasive lobular carcinoma.
UC San Diego's Statin Study group cites nearly 900 studies on the adverse effects of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins), a class of drugs widely used to treat high cholesterol. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/01/090127090735.htm
Dr. Duane Graveline, Former USAF Flight Surgeon and NASA Astronaut says, “The fact that statin drugs are two-edged swords is known to few. It is no wonder doctors are confused about this class of drugs. When a statin reduces cholesterol, it is, at the same time, reducing synthesis of CoQ10, dolichols, selenoproteins, Rho, glutathione and normal phosphorylation by a similar amount. This, I believe, is the cause of the thousands of side effect reports largely unknown to the medical community.” Lowering LDL too low actually increases the rate of death from any one of several causes. http://drsircus.com/cardiovascular/danger-heart-medications/
The Statin Scam - Women should not take statins! Epidemics associated with STATIN use include cognitive dysfunction, congestive heart failure, non-melanoma skin CANCER, statin associated diabetes, peripheral neuropathy, myopathy and even rhabdomyolysis. http://www.spacedoc.com/unusual-epidemics-statin-use
The symptoms of numbness, tingling, burning and pain are now known to thousands of statins users. Any peripheral nerve can be involved. We also have learned that many cases of peripheral neuropathy can be considered permanent. http://www.spacedoc.com/statin_scam and http://www.spacedoc.com/neuropathy_statins.htm
Multiple studies have shown that people with higher cholesterol live longer. High cholesterol has not been shown to be a risk factor for heart disease in women, diabetics, coronary heart disease patients, or the elderly. As a matter of fact, several studies have shown that higher cholesterol levels in the elderly population is associated with greater longevity and a reduced risk of dying from cancer and infection.
Add the following facts to the above information: Low cholesterol has been linked to an increased risk of stroke, depression, aggressive and violent behavior, and suppression of immunity. http://towncenterwellness.com/announcements/cholesterol-myth/
Dr. David Brownstein titled his blog post, How To Increase Your Risk of Dying? Take a Statin Drug. “If you are elderly, how can you increase your risk of dying? The answer is simple: Take a statin drug.” He concludes, “Cholesterol-lowering medications should be pulled from the market place. I predict that within five to ten years, we will have learned our lessons about the statin drugs and they will fall out of favor. It is not the first time conventional medicine has been wrong—just look at the disastrous story of DES, which was prescribed to millions of women in the 1950s.” http://drdavidbrownstein.blogspot.com.br/
Are you still taking STATINS? They can cause the following problems... Muscle damage (myotoxicity): view 80 studies here. Nerve damage (neurotoxicity): view 54 studies here. Liver damage (hepatoxocity): view 32 studies here. Endocrine disruption: view 16 studies here. Cancer-promoting: view 9 studies here. Diabetes-promoting: view 8 studies here. Cardiovascular-damaging: view 15 studies here. Birth defect causing (teratogenic): view 11 studies here.
It turns out that a common sleight of hand in the medical literature is the popularization of claims around "relative risk reduction" which can make an effect appear meaningful, when the "absolute risk reduction" reveals its insignificance. In this way, 100 people are treated with statin medications to offer 1 person benefit, and the change from a 2% to a 1% heart attack rate is billed a 50% reduction rather than a 1% improvement, which is what it actually is.
Perhaps this would still qualify as better safe than sorry if these medications weren't some of the most toxic chemicals willfully ingested, with at least 300 adverse health effects evident in the published literature so far, with at least 28 distinct modes of toxicity...
"Cholesterol is vitally important for brain function. While your brain represents about 2-3% of your total body weight, 25% of the cholesterol in your body is found in your brain, where it plays important roles in such things as membrane function, acts as an antioxidant, and serves as the raw material from which we are able to make things like progesterone, estrogen, cortisol, testosterone and even vitamin D."
"In fact, in a recent study available on the NIH Public Access site, researchers showed that in the elderly, the best memory function was observed in those with the highest levels of cholesterol. Low cholesterol is associated with an increased risk for depression and even death."
"This understanding of the important role of cholesterol in brain function raises concern as we now see changes in recommendations for prescribing statin medication. Some estimates indicate that moving forward, the number of individuals taking statins to lower cholesterol in America may actually double! This presents a worrisome proposition for brain health." - See more at: http://www.drperlmutter.com/brain-needs-cholesterol/
Prescribing Statins to otherwise healthy people is criminal. Less than 1% of the population receives any benefit even at low doses. https://raindrop.io/glycop/statin-18528221
A single serving of Brazil nuts may bring cholesterol levels down faster than statin drugs and keep them down even a month after that single ingestion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP4AUApUZLg
