Do You Believe The Cholesterol Lie?

Over 25% of the population is taking statin medications. There is also a push to begin prescribing these drugs to otherwise healthy people without elevated cholesterol levels.

If statins prevent heart disease, why is heart disease increasing year after year and kills more people than every other cause of death combined? The "cholesterol theory" has more to do with selling lots of drugs and making a ridiculous amount of money than it does heart disease prevention!

The very dietary recommendations born of the cholesterol theory of no-fat and low-fat foods causes inflammation. Inflammation IS the cause of heart disease!

Polyunsaturated Omega-6 oils; packaged and processed foods created for shelf life rather than prolonging your life; sugars and simple carbohydrates create inflammation. This IS the cause of the epidemic of heart disease, obesity and other chronic illnesses.

So why does your doctor prescribe statins for you, and even pressure you into taking them to "protect" you against heart disease? Because he is doing what he was trained to do, drug symptoms.

If cholesterol isn't the problem, is testing your levels really even helpful? A much more prudent test would be one that measures the level of inflammation in your body, a simple C-reactive protein test.

Want to stick your head in the sand and hope that your doctor will protect you from heart disease? Taking a pill sure sounds a whole lot easier than making changes you don't want to make, but that pill may actually cause your death!

One fact you can not argue with is that statins cause the depletion of Co-enzyme Q10. Deplete your Co-Q10 and you will weaken your muscles. Your heart IS a muscle.

LOW cholesterol levels are also very dangerous! Do you know that you NEED cholesterol for many of the life sustaining functions of your body? It is tough to even think clearly if your cholesterol level is low. Is that the reason the public is buying this ploy to sell drugs? Educate yourself, it's your life.
