    Very intelligent conversation. I always have high cholesterol for almost 40 yrs. Total of 7:1 and 6:4 the dr say if I don’t reduce it I’ll die from heart failure. Well 49 yrs I’m still here. I pray eat right what I cook exercise and almost 69 yrs of age. Prescribe my own vits. I’ll not go drs.

    Thanks for this. Very suspicious of this cholesterol fearmongering. Researched statins, and side effects appear to be numerous and severe in some people. Sure I read recently they want to put everyone 50 and over on statins routinely. Someone’s making a lot of money from this!

      You're right. So many of the people I know who are over 60 are on statins or have been offered and refused. I had a panic attack after being told that my cholesterol and blood sugar levels were too high, but then the same was said to my friends who appear to eat the right foods and are otherwise healthy. I've just found out that doctors base it on what is shown to be a higher than normal level, when these figures are sheer conjecture. I'm pleased to have come across this video. By the way, my brother-in-law was on statins for quite some time and he had very bad aches and pains in his joints - until he came off them. His doctor told him that statins are very cheap so they're giving them out as much as possible.

    I am 74. I am not taking statins. LDL went up and my doctor was very concerned and sent me to a cardiologist. My calcium scoring scan and carotid artery scan led him to say I was an anomaly. My primary care doctor told me to keep doing what I was doing. I avoid sugar and flour.

    Mum was taken off her cholesterol medication when she was in hospital 10 years ago we never knew why. I believe the side effects didnt help my mum. She is now 98 years old. Her cholesterol is good every year with yearly blood tests. No covid jab either still aiming for 100 years old .

    I'm 66 and recently my cardiologist insisted I needed Statins. As my ldl was too high. I was not keen and told him I had adapted my lifestyle walking more and healthy diet. He said you can't fix it that way and that I should take them. I took them for 3 months and saw no change so I guess I'll take my chances I'm 66 years Old. I'm going to make 80 healthy and walking 10k steps a day so let's see.

    I had stopped taking a statin and informed my doctor and he is a consultant cardiologist informed me that I was more or less crazy and said LDL cholesterol in his experience is the leading cause of heart disease and stroke , he wanted to put me on another one but prescribed me a non statin to reduce it .

      @@maggiegarber246 I was put on 150mg of lipitor and could hardly walk . My muscles everywhere hurt. Struggling to do my job. I came off them for 3 monthd and felt great. Then I had blood test and cholesterol had gone up. The Dr said if I didn't go back on them I could have heart issues. We came to a compromise and I took a different make but just 5mg and cholesterol went down to perfect. However I'm struggling again with body aches and pains and have decided to come off them again in the past week so will see hiw I feel again. So if I was taking 150mg or 5mg the numbers went down the same.

    43 yrs old my high cholesterol is hereditary they say. Recently put on medication, so finally saw cardiologist to get test done, to see if I've had any issues/problems due to having high cholesterol. Stress test, ultrasound of heart and ultrasound of bilateral carotid were done, turns out both arteries are 50-70% block. My terrible cardiologist doesn't want to help with the issue until 6months and do another ultrasound.(ins purposes I suppose$$$) I've made changes to my diet by doing vegan and vegetarian diet and continue to take staint, Waiting to see another cardiologist for second opinion. 😢

      LDL particles can be large and ‘fluffy’ which is better than small dense LDL particles that are more likely to stick to your arterial walls. Their are tests which determine which of more you have.

    if high cholesterol is not a cause of heart disease, what explains less incidence of heart disease in people with genetically low cholesterol ?

    • @georgecav
      @georgecav 7 месяцев назад +3

      Association is not causation. That is for honest and capable researchers to establish but inflammation is often touted as a main driver and then having higher cholesterol becomes an issue because there are more particles for the inflammation to affect

    It's completely true what he said on the BBC recently - I'm my paranoid schizophrenic brother's unpaid life carer
    ... Yesterday he got a rare " how are you doing" phonecall from head doctor at his local doctors..
    ... My brother mentioned some things & he replied " ok I'll get the girls to make an appt to see me & I'll have you some bloods done "
    .... His appointment came through But not with himself or Any doctor Only the nurse...
    .... He left his comfort zone & safe place & turned up to the doctor's & the nurse didn't have a single clue about doing Any blood tests 🤔🤔🤔
    .... But what she did do is to take his blood pressure (like normal) & then said how it was high ( like it's been for years when tested )
    ..... Then she left & came back with a take home blood pressure machine and said test yourself for a week & don't worry if it is high we have a medication you can take for that 👍
    ...... Don't tell me that his visit was NOTHING more than to get someone pop statins because of the COVID jab , Regardless of whether they need them or not 🤔
    In ALL the years of having high blood pressure they've NEVER offered my brother a machine to suddenly take home...
    That call to my brother was NOT A " HI HOW ARE YOU, BECAUSE I CARE " telephone call .
