The Cholesterol Fiasco is still in full swing in an effort to sell millions of prescriptions for cholesterol-lowering drugs. "Doctors" want your cholesterol below 150. And trust me, it won't be long before that number is lowered to 120 and possibly 100 in order to dupe another 10 to 20 million healthy folks into believing they are sick and need drugs.
There is a drug epidemic in the United States, and it is not street drugs. Rather it is the systematic drugging of our population in an effort to maintain the most profitable drug-pushing machine in the world–prescriptions. So if your doctor says lower your cholesterol at all costs, ask him this: |
Does that also mean lowering my critical hormone levels as well? Like Testosterone? DHEA? Progesterone? Cortisol? Because cholesterol is the building block for all hormones. o as you lower cholesterol, you lower hormones. This leads to emotional problems, suicides, criminal behavior, depression, anxiety, cancer at a young age, chronic fatigue, brain fatigue and memory problems, fibromyalgia, weight gain, impotency, menstrual and postmenopausal problems, inability to get pregnant, miscarriages, and on and on.
The Problem with Statins lf truth be told, cholesterol lowering drugs (called statins) have not been proven to prolong life in ordinary high-risk people. And they may even cause cancer. You see, statins interfere with the cell machinery in the body that makes a fundamental chemical called mevalonate. Mevalonate is critical to the body in making cholesterol– about two grams daily~which is needed for hormones, cell function, brain function, digestive aids, and a very long list of other critical chemicals. These include the anti-cancer agents squalene the vital anti-oxidants in bile acids, and the energy producing coenzyme called CoQ10. |
Additionally statins are a cause of thousands of cases of neuropathy. This is easy to understand when you see how lowering cholesterol can starve the brain and nerves. And the CoQ10 depletion caused by statin drugs can induce or make worse tens of thousands of cases of congestive heart failure. Still want to lower your cholesterol to ridiculous and dangerous levels?
If not, the next time your doctor tells you to lower your cholesterol at all costs, make sure he or she knows that you are not willing to accept the side effects of lowered cholesterol. You don't wish to have your nerves and your brain starve and suffer. You are not ready to accept the physical age of 90 when you are only 60 to 70. In other words, tell him to take his own medicine. While well meaning, he or she is really prescribing drugs for you based solely on the recommendations of millions of professional drug pushers-pharmaceutical representatives that visit all doctors' offices regularly.

The drug industry pumps out the junk science and the inundated doctors can't tell the light from the day. A perfect example popped up in Reuters about more cholesterol-drug junk. The article, "Cholesterol Drug Seems to Lower Depression," from the Archives of Internal Medicine, September, 2003, is another perfect selling piece for statin drugs by insinuating they help with depression. This despite no clinical testing.
The beauty of these little "scientific" items is that they have all the trappings of real science. And the public (and lots of doctors) will only read or remember the headline. The world of medical "science" is now so infiltrated by big business that those who preach that on]y "scientific" findings are valid find themselves duped~ending up as pushers for the biggest drug dealers in the world.
