Warning: Your cholesterol-lowering

Discover the Uncensored Truth about
Cholesterol-Lowering Drugs
Researchers urge caution over statin
drugs:
"The pharmaceutical industry would lead us to believe
that rapidly bottoming out our natural cholesterol levels
through the use of their highly touted statin drugs is a
relatively innocuous process of definite benefit to society.
But as we learn more each day of this ubiquitous and unique
substance, we must question the veracity of their medical
advisors. Cholesterol is perhaps the most important substance
in our lives." Duane Graveline, MD, MPH.
Despite industry hype, there is no data, none, to show that
statins are an overall benefit to people without proven
coronary artery disease [CAD]. Putting people on a lifetime of
medication, when they do not have CAD, exposes them to health
risks and major financial costs, for possibly no benefit.
Encouraging people to put themselves on a lifetime of
medication, in consultation with a pharmacist, does not seem
consistent with the goal of promoting public health.
Before we pathologize millions of people as "hypercholesterolemic”,
society ought seriously to rethink how we go about the
important task of primary prevention of heart disease. Diet
and exercise seem likely to be cheaper, safer and more
effective." Professor Arthur Schafer, Director, Centre
for Professional and Applied Ethics University of Manitoba
Winnipeg, Canada, commenting on the recent decision to allow
OTC simvastatin in the UK.
