A recent and very large study in the prominent Archives of Internal Medicine found news your doctor may not tell you.....
Taking statin medication to lower your cholesterol does nothing to lengthen your life!! Wow, why else would you take that kind of medication?
So, it looks like, if you don't have cardiovascular disease, don't take cholesterol medication.
These results seem to say if you have a family history, or even high cholesterol, medication may not be your best choice.
Well, what to do then if you have theses "risk factors" for heart attacks?
Buckle down, 20 minutes of walking every day, eat avoid processed and high carbohydrate foods, and balance out your stress levels.
I know that's old advice but it works. And its free. With no side effects.
