3 reasons why I personally will absolutely NEVER take a STATIN medication: 1. Grossly exaggerated benefits when you actually dive into the real data on Number Needed to Treat and Absolute Risk Reduction (which most practicing Doctors have no clue about) 2. I do not subscribe to the Lipid/Cholesterol hypothesis, and am well read on the enormous historical corruption in the last century by many *experts* including Harvard scientists which have led to one of the most money-making drugs in history (which most practicing Doctors have no clue about) 3. I do not eat a pro-inflammatory American/modern western diet, including crazy high sugars, refined carbs and toxic ultraprocessed ingredients which are the real upstream cause of the problem at hand of chronic inflammation and de novo lipogenesis (which most practicing Doctors have no clue about) I could add more, including the side effects. But ladies and gentlemen, don’t only take it from me— feel free to do your own research too on all of the above. And I’ll do my best to keep educating you here about why I think the way I do!
