Shared this everywhere and in all my keto groups! Thank you!!

My Dr put me on a statin because my cholesterol numbers were too high, 3 months later after a follow up blood test he said my numbers were perfect, I asked him how come, he said clearly the statin is working as it should. I couldn’t help smiling as I left his office without telling him I hadn’t taken a single tablet! Go figure.

I was on statins for about 5 years. I’m heavy into lifting weights and know what I’m doing but I kept getting deep muscle pain all the time in my quads and biceps. Then I heard that was one of the side effects of the statins. I immediately got off them, my dr was mad at me over it, and all those pains went away and I haven’t had them since. Just over a year ago I went for my physical and got blood work. I DEMANDED they also write me a script for a calcium score test. She didn’t want to write me it because “‘it’s expensive “. Her words. It was $85. I got the calcium score test and blood work. I received the calcium score before the dr. It was 0.0. No plaque at all. I eat pasture raised eggs, venison, bison, and 100% grass fed beef. I have almost no sugar from any source in my diet at all. The dr still called me and wanted me to get on a statin because my overall cholesterol was 11 points high. Mind you I raised my HDL by 28 points but she didn’t care. I told her flat out I don’t give a @#$% what the number is because my calcium score is 0 so it’s not sticking to my arteries. She then threw the “family history” nonsense at me. My relatives all ate terribly and were heavy drinkers and smokers. I’ve had 5 alcoholic drinks in the last decade and have never smoked. I eat healthy and work out 4-6 times a week. Don’t let your doctors bully you. THEY WORK FOR YOU. If you don’t get along, fire them and get another one.

My cardiologist told me, he wouldn't give statins to a dog! That told me all I needed to know!!!

[quiquileroux]

I'm a retired MD. Thank you for this. I fought the statin lie for years while working for large hospital systems and finally moved to private community access hospitals where I could practice real medicine and not be pressured to push meds people didn't need. When my own physician starts this nonsense with me, I have to grill her on the data. I realize she is pressured by the boxes she needs to check on her Epic charting and I feel sorry for her. I'm sure her dream of being a medical professional wasn't about making red boxes turn green and it's sickening to think of the waste of money and side effects people are suffering because so many doctors have become box checking automatons.

My mom is 92 years old and they put her on a statin. A few months later she was acting more and more confused and could'nt even remember what day it was. After reading about confusion side effects of statin we took her off of it.
Within a few weeks she was back to normal. Thank you for bringing this subject up.

[omaspen]

Holy s**t!! A doctor that understands the difference between relative, and absolute risk. I tried having this conversation with my own doctor and she told me that I didn't understand the subject matter. This video just confirms my belief that I did the right thing when I told my doctor I would not take statins. Once again doc. you don't disappoint.

[lindaweathersby]

I'm the caretaker for my 83 yr old mother. She had been taking atorvastatin for many years and during those years suffered with chronic fatigue and severe constipation. Every time we told her drs about these issues they chalked it up to old age and to take laxatives regularly. Exasperated, I watched your video several days ago about the side effects. I immediately took her off the statin. Six (6) days later she is feeling herself again and her digestive system is almost back to normal!!! THANK YOU DR KEN You are literally a God send to my mom.

[sfl]

As a physician I fully support this video. EXCELLENT.

[adrianred]

My doctor totally agrees re this. He told me about this before this stud was done. He advised me to read a book called " The great cholesterol con". He also told me you are more likely to get a heart attack if you have low cholesterol than high. Your muscles need cholesterol to rejuvenate and your heart is a muscle, a known side effect of stations is muscle deterioration. Then there is your brain which also needs cholesterol. Taking a drug to reduce cholesterol could actually be detrimental to your muscle and brain function.

After taking a blood test in 1999 ( It seems that 50 is the age that big pharma require you to be on some sort of tablets), my doc slapped a box of Lipitor on the table and told me I had familial hypercholesterolæmia. This, without asking one question about my family’s medical history. I asked about side effects and was told ‘some joint pain and muscle weakness’. I left thinking to myself ‘the heart’s a muscle!’ Went home and did some extensive research on the internet, avoiding drug company stuff as I guessed they would be biased, and threw the Lipitor in the bin. I’m still alive!

[vtgirl]

Been on a statin for 20+ years, since my 40s. Even on the meds, my LDL level is higher than they say it should be. My HDL has always been high. I went off for 2 years and total chol went up to almost 300 but then had a coronary calcium score test and it was 0! . I exercise daily, not overweight, and don't smoke. My dr still insists I need to stay on these meds forever. I think I'll stop anyway!

[jimpowers]

Finally a doctor that knows the deal. Thank God!

[countryroads]

I ditched the statin I was taking on January 1st this year after applying the common sense of eliminating all sugar/processed fake food and following the low-carb way of eating. I have not felt this good in 20 years. Thank you for all you do, Doc!

[pattijesinoski]

As a 3rd generation pharmacist, I remember long ago that a cholesterol level of 300 was great. That is UNTIL Lipitor came out. THEN, it was decided by big pharma that cholesterol levels MUST BE BELOW 200. What a crock.
Inflammation is the problem. Statins do nothing for that.

[kare]

This is mind blowing. My 84 yr old pop had to come off statins as he was in treatment for covid. He needed anti virals. A week without statins saw a huge improvement in neck and shoulder pain he has had for 18 months. Brain fog gone. Mood improved and this was after Covid!
He’s told me he’s staying off them for 2 months if the pain doesn’t return he’s binning the lot!

I was an optician. I made eyeglasses and had become quite familiar with the eye.
Years ago, my Dr. put me on a statin and within two days, my vision had changed by over a diopter and I had horrible headaches. I immediately took myself off of it. I am convinced that Statins also cause dementia/Alzheimer's as they seem to remove fat from the brain. not the only culprit as Dr's we saying people had to stop taking in good fats and go on a low fat diet is also terribly damaging. Decades ago, I noticed my mother's friends who were brilliant, were being diagnosed with dementia. She attended a large congregation full of 50+ ages and they began dropping like flies.
I began to inquire, and they all attended the same geriatric group of Dr's who were heavy into dispensing statins.
Within two years, they had 200 deaths in that congregation, and they were all going to that same group of Dr's and all taking statins dispensed by these Dr's.
My personal opinion only, they cause early death.

[agnesyoung]

I had a doctor who prescribed statins, “just because”; no blood tests performed. I refused; citing the horrible side effects. The doctor had his nurse call me for several weeks in a row to try to bully me into submission. He’s now my former doctor.

[shanechostetler]

At 60, I’ll never believe any Dr. who only spends about 7 minutes even talking to you while supposing to be giving you a physical. I’ll take more responsibility for my own health thank you.

[shannonkroll]

My doctor wanted to put me on a statin a couple of years ago, because my LDL was a little high and my HDL was a little low. I said, "Not gonna happen!" I've heard too many horror stories of their ill side effects. I did manage to lose close to 100 pounds, by eating a low-carb diet, and I started taking Garlique for Cholesterol. This last time they checked my levels, they said I still need to get it down, but it's not high enough to warrant putting me on a statin. I said, well, that's good because you can try all you want to put me on one but I will not take it. It's a shame that they just want to push drugs so quickly instead of giving us alternative options. Anyway, just my two cents. Have a great day! 😊
