[This Doctor Hates Statin Drugs, Wait Until You Hear Why!]

25% of the body is cholesterol. Your body needs it to work properly. 

30% of this amount is in the brain.

Stephanie Senef, a highly qualified researcher has performed her own research on the effect it has on dementia, kidney, liver and muscle pain and weakness.
Exercise is of no benefit if you take statin drugs, because of their effect on the muscle cells.

There has been a lot of interest in Co-Enzyme Q10 recently, an enzyme vital for cell energy production. The heart in particular becomes deprived of its major energy molecule. Anyone taking statins needs to be aware of how they not only block the production of cholesterol, but seriously deplete this enzyme as well. This explains the explosion in the number of heart failures at an early age.

Instead of taking statins which yield a significant number of dangerous side-effects, why not look at the reason why cholesterol is building up in the body? Better to look at the effect of glyphosate on the liver. If we're not eating organic produce, most of us will be getting a daily dose of glyphosate weedkiller. It upsets the liver's delivery of bile acids, a high percentage of which is cholesterol, which is then sent to the gut for excretion. If the liver doesn't filter out the excess cholesterol, it builds up in the system.

Bayer, a company that recommend statins is in bed with Monsanto who produce glyphosate. One writer suggests that it's a marriage made in hell.One gives you high cholesterol, the other gives you the statins which are supposed to lower it. 

Time to wake up?

[Dangers of Statin Drugs & How They Are Damaging the Brain]

The presenter may be a little off-putting, but what Dr. Blaylock offers is well worth listening to, for anyone who wonders what statins are doing to the human body ... how they produce dementia. A 40 minute radio interview. Muscle weakness and pain, paralysis, the heart is a muscle. The effect on the brain and heart really stand out.

Despite the latest NHS directive stating that all men over 60 and all women over 75 should be offered statins, the reasoning against their use is very well laid out here. I'm one of the 6.3 million in the UK who at present aren't taking them, and I shall remain so.
