Statins are gonna kill you eventually. They cause muscle pain, premature aging, memory loss, even cancer...

Your not serious, are You..? Linky, Stinky...

Thank-You very much. Tell me what is safe to use as a substitute for sugar and I will eat it instead, starting today.

I have a first in office appt. with the cardiologist who did my emergency stent after having a heart attack less than two weeks ago. I've had my insurance deny two different 'scripts for statins, and quite honestly, I think that's divine intervention.

I do not want to take statins, and I've started taking serrapeptase to help with reducing the plaque....there are no other clogs in my ateries, but they are showing signs of constriction.

A client of mine told me about ezetimibe, the generic for Zetia, and I'm wondering if youse guyses have any personal experience about this drug. It is not a statin, and is used in concert with a statin. I'm hoping to use it in concert with the serrapeptase with be efficient in lowering my levels.

I suppose what I'm hoping is that the doc will approve of this without too much argument.

I know I do not have to take anything I don't want to, but my cholesterol readings are very high, and I so do not want to have another heart attack. It hurts really, really bad to have a heart attack.

I'm also totally changing up my diet more to plant based foods, and I'm going to start walking very soon. I know that's key to my health also.

Also, I do take in oils. I eat organic butter, I take CBD oil, black seed oil, and other oils, so I'm not so much concerned about not getting enough oils.

Can anyone here advise me? My appt. is in two hours, and I don't want to see him without being at least a bit educated.

Thank you....

This is another grand example of how Big Pharma is killing people for the sake of profits.

The "cholesterol theory" of heart disease was debunked many years ago through the research of Dr. Linus Pauling, who even discovered a legitimate cure for heart disease: simply taking enough Vitamin C and the amino acid Lysine together daily counteracts the INFLAMMATION that is the TRUE cause of clogged arteries.

My 84 year old father was on a statin and has having horrible diabetic nuereopothy pain in his legs. I bought him a few books about the danger of statins. He stopped taking it and his health improved significantly. His doctor was supporting. On the other hand, my step-dad wanted to quit his and his doctor pitched an absolute fit.

This is all just absolutely NUTS.

I hope and pray that Trump will at least begin the process of turning the medical industry around to where their focus will be on actually CURING disease instead of just MANAGING SYMPTOMS.

Yeah, I know that seems like an impossibly tall order, but the way we're dealing with illness now really is insane -- and ridiculously expensive.

Can I make GLP my primary care physician?

Trin? I know you can't even get CC's to go through but do you take United Healthcare?

Thank you, lovey. Per blood tests my levels of those are within limits, but I also know I need to be more vigilant about EVERYTHING I'm putting in my mouth.

And actually, the Internist I see has just ordered a comprehensive metabolic panel, so that will be more revealing. I haven't done the tests yet because I wanted to see what the cardiologist wanted to order, too. I just saw the Internist last Friday, so I'm not waiting too long.

Also, I have been getting strange cramps in my second toe over from my littlest toe, on both feet. That just started about a month ago. That hurts....I mean, the toes do get all jacked up/pinched up looking while it happens. I do have issues with my lumbar, but I don't intuitively feel it's from there.

I'm going to see what the tests being ordered reveal, and thank you very much for your post!

They lower measured cholesterol levels by making it stick to vascular walls instead of floating freely, exactly what you don't want to avoid cardiovascular disease.

ALL FACTS. Seems the only people who benefit just a little from statins are middle-aged men with known heart disease. The rest of the population, you are killing yourselves.

Most cases of Diabetes, is curable, Your Body is a amazing vessel ... I suggest watching a few video's by dr. berg man...on the subject...

Unfortunately most blood panels do not uncover magnesium deficiencies. The body is remakebly good at keeping it within a very narrow range in the blood, so it wont show up unless they test the intracelullar concentration.

The footcramp is a tell tale sign of magnecium deficiency.
There are a couple of good cheap sources you can try.
Magnesium oil for topical use, it is simply magnesium cloride and water often sold as a 31% concetrated solution at outragios prices. Very easy to make yourself!

Another one is magnesium bicarbonate water, also easy, Milk of magnesia or magnesium hydroxide in seltzer water.

There are natural alternatives to pharma statins. A lot of people have had great succes with switching to red yeast rice, from a reputable source( there are fakes on the market). This in combination with turmeric and reishi mushrooms and resveratrol takes care of both the inflamation and the cholesterol.

ffs. Just eat a can of beets an hour before you go to the doctor's office. It'll drop the blood pressure like a rock. I don't know exactly why it works but it does; you can find articles online about it. Dentists these days want to take your blood pressure before they do any work on you and if their office was a long and stressful drive away, your blood pressure might look high for a half hour or so and the dentist will make you wait - I discovered this much to my own annoyance.

That said, if you're waiting for your doctor to 'approve' any decision you want to make about your own body, I'm not sure anything can save you, because you've already given away your free will, without which your survival instinct is nullified. Do some research on your own and find out what works best for you individually.

You're the only one who really cares if you do it right so nobody on an internet forum (and this one is about 90% total morons) has anything invested in whether or not their 'advice' helps you or kills you. When you take care of your own business and stop trying to delegate it, at least you can trust the person coming up with the answers.:)

Cut the sugar and you will cut down the inflammation, which is REALLY what will kill you.
