Statins, Scams, and Big Pharma's Grip

We live in an upside down world with regards to our healthcare, or rather wealthcare system. The narrative around cholesterol and statins has long been pushed as a solution to heart disease, but this is a costly misconception. Cholesterol is a vital molecule, serving as the raw material for hormones, brain function, and cell repair. Contrary to the "ticking time bomb" label, half of all heart attack victims have normal cholesterol levels, while those with higher levels often live longer, especially as they age. The real culprit appears to be inflammation (i.e sugar), not cholesterol itself. Statins, which deplete cholesterol, are a misguided intervention, profiting a billion-dollar industry at the expense of natural health.  

Statins do more harm than good to brain health. Studies indicate individuals on statins face an increased risk of dementia, likely due to the reduction of cholesterol, which is essential for cognitive function. Long-term statin use can elevate dementia risk by up to 30-40%, a concerning statistic given the drug's widespread prescription. This depletion disrupts the brain's ability to maintain its structure and function, highlighting a potential scam where the cure might worsen the condition it aims to prevent.
Big Pharma’s influence is alarming.  It is slowly overtaking the medical industry with profit-driven agendas. Coupled with the pressures of insurance companies, doctors are increasingly constrained, fearing license revocation if they deviate from prescribed protocols. This leaves little room for personalized care or alternative approaches like diet and lifestyle changes, which could address inflammation more effectively. 
As always, do your research.  If you would like a personalized Health and Wellness Coaching session with me, please reach out.  I can help you find natural solutions to improve health that most times start with a revamping of your grocery list.
