High LDL Cholesterol Is Not A Health 'Problem' & Other Facts

Quote from ByLoSellHi:

Don't take this personally, because it's not meant to be, but when it comes to nutrition or science, that lone sentence I quoted of yours completely shreds any scintilla of credibility you may have ever held.

prove it wrong (if you can)

Vytorin Fraud Places all Statin Therapy in Question

Tuesday, January 15, 2008

Byron Richards, CCN


Excessively lowering cholesterol has been the mantra of Big Pharma gone wild. Congressional investigation into a fraudulent cover-up of Vytorin study results led Merck and Schering-Plough to reveal what everyone had been suspecting, the main ingredient in their 5-billion-a-year scam failed miserably to do anything useful. “This drug doesn’t work. Period. It just doesn’t work,” said Steven Nissen, head of cardiology at the Cleveland Clinic. Merck and Schering-Plough have raked in 10 billion in sales since knowing their drug was near worthless and their promotion for its sale completely false. They should be forced to refund all the money to patients.

Those on the drugs lowered their cholesterol by 40% more, but this had no improvement to their health and was no better than far cheaper generic drugs. This complete failure to produce positive results was in patients with serious heart disease risk. Dr. Nissen points out, “If a group of patients with LDL levels this high don’t benefit from Vytorin who’s going to benefit?” He also advised that “physicians should now stop using [Zetia] or Vytorin as a primary therapy for patients with high cholesterol.”

This latest fraud in the Big Pharma world, hitting the media at the same exact time of the bone drug fraud, actually throws the entire notion of lowering cholesterol to physiologically abnormal levels with drugs into question. Lower cholesterol is good when it occurs naturally as a result of diet and exercise, but not when it is accomplished by poisoning the body with statins. I explain this fully in my article “The Statin Scam Marches On.”

Better sources than that. I let the result speak for themselves.

No sickness, no allergies, no problems, no complications, no pharma prescriptions. Only been to hospital once in my life, for an xray of a cracked rib. Don't even need health insurance.

I love being in charge of my health.

There's a starter course. There are hundreds if not thousands of controlled studies showing statins to be dangerous, and cardiovascular disease to definitively be of a inflammatory causation - nearly almost always completely unrelated to and independent of total or LDL-specific cholesterol levels in the blood.

I totally agree...there are many scientists around the world who query "increased cholestrol".

every plant is a complete protein. every plant has lots of carbs (meat has none). sat fat in meat has reams of evidence implicating its consumption with chronic disease esp heart disease. (plants have none)

What is amazing to me is that Gorilla's eat mostly plant food (if not all?) and they are stronger than hell. I wonder how they do in the heart disease department.

I haven't seen any stats, but I would guess they have minimal heart disease. Multiple studies in humans have shown that total cholesterol under 150 results in zero incidence of heart disease.
 
Quote from Fractals 'R Us:

Soy blocks the uptake of minerals. The soy industry is the only people that are promoting soy as healthy. The Chinese don't eat soy, they culture it and then eat it, completely different thing..

Goat's milk is a lot better than cow milk, the balance of minerals is correct for humans. Cultured goat's milk, keifer, is a super-food imo. It has the right balance of minerals and the culturing makes all the nutrients in it more bio available. Poor kids all over the world that eat keifer have great teeth..

Is soy milk bad too???
