    cholesterol?

    YAY!!!!!! This is right.


    Myth No 7: Cholesterol is going to kill you

    Cholesterol is absolutely life critical and vital – not
    the bad guy in any way, shape or form. You would
    literally die without cholesterol. It is one of the
    most vital substances in the human body – it is a
    key part of the structure for every cell in your
    body; it is vital for all hormone production and
    reproduction; it is vital for digestion – the body
    uses cholesterol to synthesise bile acids – without
    this you could not digest fat or absorb the vital fat
    soluble vitamins; cholesterol is vital for bones and
    all the roles performed by vitamin D and the brain
    contains about 25% of the body’s cholesterol –
    making it completely vital to mind and memory
    functions and our entire operation as a human
    being.
    Cholesterol is so vital to the body that our
    bodies make it. The body cannot risk leaving it to
    chance that we would get it externally from some
    where – that’s how critical it is. Statins stop the
    body from producing the cholesterol that it is
    designed to produce. They literally stop one of our
    fundamental body processes from being able to
    function.
    One i n 5 0 0 p e o p l e h a v e f a m i l i a l
    hypercholesterolemia and may have a problem
    clearing cholesterol in their body (rather like type
    1 diabetics who can’t return their blood glucose
    levels to normal). For anyone else to be actively
    trying to lower their vital and life affirming
    cholesterol levels is deeply troubling.
    The intelligent view on statins is that, in the
    very limited arena where they appear to have some
    ‘benefit’ (men over 50 who have already had a
    heart attack), they ‘work’ by having antiinflammatory
    properties and that the fact that they
    lower cholesterol (by stopping the body from being
    able to produce this vital substance) is a very
    unfortunate side effect. (Drug companies should
    work on developing something that has the antiinflammatory
    benefit without this huge and
    damaging side effect – it’s called aspirin).

    I'm glad you posted the information on how bad statins can be for you. I have read that a lot in Dr. Mercola's newletters.
