Statins work by slowing liver function so that it cannot make as

much cholesterol. At the same time, they deplete very essential

CoQ10 that is protective of all kinds of diseases and affects

energy. They also mess up your hormones since they are altering

liver function which controls hormone turnover.

A great book on cholesterol and how it is " The Cholesterol Myths " by

Uffe Ravnskov, MD, PhD. This author went back a reviewed all the

research done on cholesterol since the 1940s and amazingly finds no

real link between cholesterol and cardiovascular disease and heart

disase. He shows you the data and you can decide for yourself.

By far the major cause of high cholesterol is low thyroid levels.

The big drug companies don't make any money treating that with

thyroid.
