This is one of the greatest lies ever created by the AMA and I am on top of it. A doctor once spoke down to me like I was a child when he found out I cook with coconut oil and refused to take a statin. I couldn't believe his affrontery. I merely responded, "Do you take a statin?"
My wife and I have the same primary care physician at Mayo Clinic.
The doc is 30-something years old, and HE TAKES A STATIN.
Once you become over 62-years-old, the formula they use at Mayo will GUARANTEE that you will be recommended a statin. GUARANTEE. It does not matter what your weight, cholesterol, or BP are. The formula will recommend a statin if you are over age 62.
We decline at any mention.
We tell him we are "healthcare minimalists." He seems to like that. :)
I had a serious, out-of-the-blue, emergency room situation and had to hook up to a Mayo PCP for after-care, which included some tests, and an intake appointment. No way around it.
As I stated, I declined the statin recommendation. I take zero meds or supplements and eat almost 100% organic, and am very healthy for my (senior) age, thank God.
A year has gone by since that first Mayo appointment with the doc, and they are now pinging me to make another "annual" appointment, including blood testing for cholesterol and glucose.
But I am not interested in getting on their annual hamster wheel, so did not take them up on their offer.

My wife has Stage-4 COPD (bad behavior before becoming a Christian), so has needed supplemental oxygen care for 10+ years.
Mayo told her in 2015 to "get your affairs in order" because they thought she was doomed. (This was before we knew each other).
But Mayo never checked with Jesus Christ.
Jesus has had other plans for her.
SO:
No allopathic services, then no oxygen, and no breathing meds.
Allopathic care cannot always be avoided; which, if necessary, then we need to know how to navigate through the system; and avoid its lies and those things that do more harm than good.
Over nearly 2 decades of medical practice, I have been warning patients against statins. Medical literature consistently shows worse cancer outcomes in those with lower cholesterol and better cancer outcomes in those with higher cholesterol.
The reason is straightforward: Vitamin D is our most available preventive substance against cancer. Cholesterol is required, not a luxury substance but required, to make vitamin D from skin exposure to sunlight.
The reason the heart does not tolerate statins well is also straightforward. The heart is nearly all muscle. Muscle strength requires many well-functioning mitochondria. That function requires Co-Q10. Statins obstruct Co-Q10 production.
This is an excellent treatise on the cholesterol/statin story that I lived through as a physician starting in the ‘70s and going 40 years. The map, looking backwards, is undeniable that cholesterol lacks a primary effect in CVD. I found it difficult to take a different stance because my cardiology contemporaries were setting the standards by which we were judged and open to malpractice if someone had a bad outcome as a result of “ not doing standard of care”.
I was able to delay treatment in later years as inflammatory hypotheses grew in status, choosing to treat/ change lifestyle that gave even better results, less additional side effects and less cost in worry for the patient.
Thank you for the work you present- seems long, but actually very short from my having lived through it.
Although this article talks about the lack of connection between cholesterol levels and heart disease, another point was made: researchers are like bureaucrats: the latter makes up work to justify their position, by making new rules and regulations that only their department can handle. The former makes up science to justify more research money to do research that proves nothing.
Perhaps at one time, experts like bureaucrats performed a useful function. Over time, their function became useless due to new research or new technology. But their jobs didn't go away. Instead it morphed into something more useless masquerading as something 'new' requiring a new word salad to describe their latest and greatest function. Again non-compliance exposes these frauds for what they are: frauds who use the spell casting properties of the English language to further justify their existence.
I am SO happy finally someone is telling the truth , and why do people get Dementia ? the brain calls for cholesterol because that is what the brain is made of ....and if you stop restoring and feeding the brain what it needs like other parts of the body that part dies... same with the brain it dies.
There are new, updated cholesterol guidelines that include the other, newer lipid lowering therapies. How convenient…and also authored by people with ties to pharmaceutical companies.
Anything that lowers your cholesterol is bad news! From an ER doctor client of mine,” Very soon after a man is put on statins it will come back to me complaining of ED. so then they are put on the blue pill. after that, they will come back to me, complaining the depression. Then they are put on SSRI. That’s how it works in 90% of men put on statins. it’s an incredible marketing strategy.”
I once had a doctor ask, what drugs are you taking? I said none. She said, well there has to be someone wrong with you? She tried to suggest a statin. I said why? Cholesterol is high, it’s been this high since I was 19. She made the scam extremely obvious.
Pig Pharma will do anything to sell drugs and vaccines. No lie is ever off the table. No institution is beyond accepting bribes and payoffs. No congress is ever immune from perks and payoffs. No doctor will EVER question anything big pharma or the AMA tells him.
Even the MSM has bought into the lies 100%...see all the drug ads? No drug trial is ever too pure to not be rigged. No patient is ever well enough to never need drugs. This is where we are. The goal of Pig Pharma is to have every person on the planet drugged to death...one way or another.

Insanity.
Why continue to buy allopathic services? Is it not obvious these people are idiots?

It’s a cliche that needs repeating. No one was ever born deficient of pharmaceuticals.
And truth is , it's inflammation not cholesterol , but Statins make trillions for the Big Pharma Machine
And stress. If you read Kendrick's book, he makes a very strong argument for it.
Stressors are always a contributer to many health issues

They have low self-esteem>create superiority complexes to cope>they can never be wrong

And trauma is a huge factor - not facing an enormous grief
And they've just lowered the recommended LDL-C levels yet again... absolutely sickens me. https://www.lipid.org/nla/2026-accahamultisociety-dyslipidemia-guideline-released
It's the same legerdemain by which they moved the goalposts on "normal" blood pressure, Matt.
I share your nausea over this type of goalpost-moving.

After he’s put on an SSRI, the wife better hide The cutlery. For unknowingly, she is now married to Norman Bates

Cholesterol is not the cause of heart disease; it's the result of it.
Cholesterol feeds the brain and all cells of the body , if ya don`t feed it it dies....
fantastic article and spot on.
Very good article, my warmest congratulations
