Cholesterol Myths vs. Truths
Myth: people with high cholesterol are more prone to heart attacks
Truth: young and middle aged men with cholesterol levels over 350 are slightly at more risk. Those with levels below 350 are at no grater risk than those with very low cholesterol. For elderly men and for women of all ages, high cholesterol is associated with a longer lifespan
Myth: cholesterol and saturated fat of arteries
Truth: there is very little cholesterol or saturated fat in arterial plaque or clogs. Most of the material is a calcium deposit akin to lime and most of the fatty acids are unsaturated.
Myth: Eating saturated fat and cholesterol rich foods will cause cholesterol levels to rise and make people more susceptible to heart disease
Truth: many studies show no relationship between diet and cholesterol levels. there is no evidence that saturated fat and cholesterol rich foods contribute to heart disease. As americans have cut back on saturated fat and cholesterol rich foods, rates of heart disease have gone up.
Myth: cholesterol lowering drugs have saved many lives
Truth: in two trials, involving over 10,000 subjects, cholesterol lowering drugs did not result in any improvement in outcome
Myth: countries that have a high consumption of animal fat and cholesterol have higher rates of heart disease
Truth: there are many exceptions to this observation, such as France and Spain. Furthermore, an association called a “risk factor” is not the same as cause. In wealthy countries where people eat a lot of animal foods, many other factors exist that can contribute to heart disease.
Bottom line: statins STOP the production of cholesterol that robs the brain of fat and results in brain fog and dementia. Statins are not the answer. They are a bandaid that can result in some serious side effects. Statins are also a type of drug that you can quit cold turkey along with lifestyle and diet changes and see immediate improvement.

Dangers of Statin Drugs
Modern cholesterol lowering drugs act by inhibiting an enzyme (HMG-CoA reductase) needed for the formation of cholesterol in the liver. These HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, called statins, are sold as Lipitor, Mevacor, Pravacol, Zocor, etc. weakness and muscle wasting: the most common side effects of statins occurring in as many as 1:3 users. Muscle aches, pains, back pain, heel pain, weakness and slurring of speech from statin interference with the production of Coenzyme Q10, needed for the muscles to function. These side effects are more common in active people and may not show up until 3 years into treatment.
Side Effects May Include:
- Heart failure: Rates of heart failure have doubled since the advent of statin drugs. The heart is a muscle that depends on a plentiful supply of Co-Q10
- Polyneyneyneuropathy: Tingling and pain in the hands and feet as well as difficulty walking occur frequently in those taking statins, conditions often blamed on “old age” esther than the drug
- Cognitive impairment: Many patients have reported memory loss and brain fog, including total global amnesia (episodes of complete memory loss) The implications for pilots and those driving cars and trucks are profound.
- Cancer: In every study with rodents to date, statins have caused cancer. Most human trials are not carried out long enough to detect an increase in cancer rates, but in one trial, breast cancer rates of those taking a statin were 1500 percent higher than those of controls
- Depression: numerous studies have linked low cholesterol with depression
If it isn’t Cholesterol, then what is the cause of Heart Disease?
Many scientists have put forth valid theories for the epidemic of heart disease:
- Deficiencies of Vitamin A and D – back in the 1930’s it was observed that rates of heart attack rose when levels of these fat-soluble vitamins in local butter went down. (take your master formula)
- Deficiencies of Vitamins B6, B12 and folinic acid: (take your SUPER B!!) – low levels of these lead to elevated levels of homocysteine a marker for heart disease
- Trans fatty acids – the replacement of saturated fats with these is linked to heart disease. Saturated fats actually protect the heart
- Mineral deficiencies – deficiencies of magnesium, copper and vanadium have been linked to heart disease.
- Milk pasteurization – in Britain a study was done that showed an increase in heart disease to districts with milk pasteurization compared to raw
- Stress – heart attacks often occur after a period of stress, which depleted the body of many nutrients and enzymes
Vital Role of Cholesterol
- cholesterol is produced by almost every cell in the body
- cholesterol in cell membranes makes cells waterproof so there can be a different chemistry inside the cell versus outside
- cholesterol is nature’s repair substance, used to repair wounds, including tears and irritations of the arteries
- many important hormones are made of cholesterol, including hormones that regulate mineral metabolism and blood sugar, hormones that help to deal with stress, and all the sex hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen and progesterone.
- cholesterol is vital in brain and nervous system protection
- cholesterol fights against depression and plays a vital role in the production of the body’s “feel good” hormone serotonin.
- the bile salts, needed for digestion of fats, are made of cholesterol
- cholesterol is the precursor of vitamin D, which is formed by the action of ultra-violet light (UV-B) on cholesterol in the skin
- cholesterol is a powerful antioxidant that protects us against free radicals and therefor against cancer
- cholesterol, especially LDL (the so called bad cholesterol) helps to fight infection
How to Avoid Heart Disease
- try not to worry about unnecessary things, worry can cause heart disease.
