Ninety-Two Million People Take Statins. For Maybe Four Extra Days of Life.
At 55, my doctor wanted me on a statin. Said because I was a diabetic that I would need to take statins for the rest of my life even though I was controlling my diabetes. Said I’d have a heart attack without it.
I asked him how much longer I’d live if I took it… whether I needed it or not.
He couldn’t give me a straight answer.
I researched, turns out the data shows maybe four to five extra days. After taking a pill every single day for years.
Meanwhile, the side effects are real: muscle pain, nerve damage, liver problems, brain fog, higher diabetes risk.
Pfizer makes $13 billion a year on Lipitor alone. That’s not a health strategy. That’s a business model.
Here’s what they don’t tell you: cholesterol isn’t the problem. Inflammation is.
Your arteries get inflamed from sugar, seed oils, hypertension, smoking, obesity. Cholesterol shows up to repair the damage. Then it gets blamed.
I reversed my diabetes at 55 by cutting sugar and eating real food. Red meat. Eggs. Saturated fat. The stuff they said would kill me.
Seventeen years later, my inflammation is gone. My ratios are solid. No statin. No side effects. No four extra days traded for years of damage.
Your doctor was taught by the same people selling the pills.
Are you taking a statin, or are you fixing what’s actually broken?
