According to statistics, statins haven't saved one female life. The side effects can be horrible. Just that they call it high cholesterol is dumb, without it you die. What they measure is cholesterol transporters which they think might cause trouble, but by stopping the transporters you're also stopping essential cholesterol to your heart, brain and muscle. With low triglycerides and "high cholesterol" not much is wrong really. I'm not into conspiracies but I lost people from statins, it's really toxic. I do think high cholesterol is a myth.
