My 44 year old husband had an MI and received three stents. His total cholesterol was in the 180s. They put him on Atorvastatin 40 mg and his LDL came down to 5 😳

Sad to say my cholesterol medication made me feel like I was losing my mind literally….. It made me so forgetful that I thought I was getting dementia!!!! Took myself off of it, and I’m clear as a bell. But I’ll probably die of a heart attack.😏

Not arguing with your guidelines. But isn’t the root cause of CAD treating the inflammation of the intima of the arteries. This should be the focus. What are the implications on the brain/hormones and other systems by lowering LDL so low ? Love your content doc. Very balanced and insightful

It has always been really interesting to me that they call for such aggressive lowering of LDL but we are so permissive with higher LDL’s in younger populations – I really think we need to do more aggressive research on this and how it pertains to prevent prevention.

These things make sense and I understand the reasons. But when does it stop. They say get LDL down. You need Lower blood pressure. Soon we will have newborns on statins and blood pressure meds.

How do you explain in the rise of Alzheimer’s with the extensive use of statins and yet the rates of heart disease have not fallen? Because, our brain is depending upon cholesterol to function properly.

Statins can cause muscle breakdown. Why would anyone take these statins when there is risk? Heart=muscle
