    At one time statins were deemed so effective, doctors seriously proposed putting them in the water supply. Now - not so much.

    Probably see the same scenario played out here. Dispicable of CBC to act as shill for big Pharma.

    A diet high in vegetables and vegetable protein is also a proven alternative to statins. The only side effects are feeling great and weight loss.

    That's what most people do, then continue with the cheesecake and Chicken Fried steak. :(

    Sadly, the side effects from Statins are pretty harsh for some people. They report things like muscle loss, loss of joint cartilage and loss of kidney function.

    It's our diet that's put obesity as the #1 killer in North America, and it's fast becoming that in economies that are adopting the western factory farm and western diet, like India and China.
