Cholesterol
lowering medications have become the most popular and widely distributed drugs
in the world. New health warnings have
been added to the statin group such as muscle pain, memory loss and diabetes. These damaging side effects have been known
long-term but pharmaceutical companies and healthcare officials have simply turned
their backs and ignored this growing concern in the past.

The
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has now linked the use of cholesterol
lowering medications with cognitive brain dysfunction. Symptoms of statin induced brain damage
include memory loss and mental confusion.
The statins that have been identified as the culprits include Lipitor,
Crestor, Vytornin and Zocor.

Cholesterol
lowering medications targets and attempts to lower all fat and cholesterol in
the body. There are many areas that
require a high density of fat and cholesterol to function properly including
your brain. The ingestion of statin
medications effect the amount of cholesterol in one’s brain and will cause memory
loss and mental confusion.
Statin
medication specifically destroys Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10). CoQ10 damage directly impacts the heart,
skeletal muscle and the brain. Studies
have confirmed CoQ10 depletion to cause further memory loss as well. The destruction of this enzyme by statins
also causes weakness and muscle pain.
No Cholesterol, No Response
The
brain and nervous system is the primary system that controls and regulates every
function in the human body. The direct
side effects of statin medications inhibit and damage that master control
system. One of the primary purposes of
the brain is to communicate to every cell in the body and tell them how to
respond to any given stimulus. A
stimulus can be positive and negative and is commonly called stress. Artificially lowering cholesterol in your
brain will lower the ability of the body to identify and respond to stress.
Pharmaceutical
medication can be classified as a chemical stress on the body. It is normal for the body to be able to
respond to this stress, but long-term medication abuse, poor diet, lack of
exercise and high levels of toxicity will diminish the body’s ability to
respond to stress.
Statins Cause Heart Disease
When
your blood sugar and risk of developing diabetes increases from taking a statin
medication, what is happening? The
chemical stress posed by the statin medication damages neurological tissue and
reduces the body’s ability to respond to the stress. Compounding factors such as poor lifestyle
indicators further inhibit the natural response to this stress.
What
is the natural blood sugar response to a body that is overwhelmed with
physical, mental and emotional stress?
It increases and you’re diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes is the leading contributor to the
development of heart disease.
Statin
medication should not be used if you desire to achieve optimal health. Optimal health means living to your potential
without developing self-induced health conditions. Many people think that heart disease, cancer
and diabetes are genetic and their personal choices make no impact. This is false. Research has shown us that the majority of
health conditions can be completely eliminated, reduced and reversed with the
proper lifestyle indicators.
Heart
disease is not a lack of statin medication.
Take initiative and implement a health recovery program. This program should include weight loss or
maintaining a healthy weight, optimal nutrition, adequate exercise, healthy
neurology and the reduction of stress.
Health is a choice, what do you choose?
