Since then a massive lipid lowering campaign has shown no effect on heart disease rates. While an elegant and seemingly intuitive hypothesis, more and more openly people are rightly questioning the wisdom of the cholesterol lowering campaign. Cholesterol is an essential component of every cell membrane and important for myriad physiologic functions. When Dr. Uffe Ravnskov, MD PhD looked at the medical literature he found something quite surprising had been documented there. On average people with higher cholesterol live longer. http://healthjournalclub.blogspot.com/2009/10/do-people-with-high-cholesterol-live.html The side effects of statins are myriad, rhabdomyolysis, (muscle injury), liver damage, in Crestor's case kidney damage. Dr Duane Graveline an MD and former NASA astronaut has also compiled extensive data on a more rare statin side effect, global transient amnesia, which afflicted him and many others, he has written a book on it, "Lipitor thief of memory". http://healthjournalclub.blogspot.com/2009/11/statins-and-global-transient-amnesia.html Don't forget co-enzyme Q depletion. All this while the "lipid hypothesis" is falling like a house of cards as decades of intensive lipid lowering efforts have done nothing to improve heart disease rates.

The side effects of statins are myriad, rhabdomyolysis, (muscle injury), liver damage, in Crestor’s case kidney damage.

Don’t forget co-enzyme Q depletion. All this while the “lipid hypothesis” is falling like a house of cards as decades of intensive lipid lowering efforts have done nothing to improve heart disease rates.
