Another SHOCKING Truth About Cholesterol Drugs [BREAKING]

Dear Reader,
f you have heart problems, there’s no doubt your mainstream doc has pushed to put you on a statin (cholesterol-lowering) drug.
Now, if you’ve been reading Living Well Daily for a while, you already know that statins can weaken your muscles… increase your risk of diabetes… and even set you up for memory problems.
But according to a new study, there’s another HUGE problem with these deadly drugs…
Here’s what you need to know.
A new study, published in the British Medical Journal, found that 75 percent of all studies using statin drugs showed NO reduction in death.
In other words… they’re worthless!
Statins are one of the biggest moneymakers that big pharma has – they make them billions of dollars every year.
Statin drugs target so-called “bad cholesterol” also known as LDL cholesterol, but they come with a whole ton of side effects such as:
- Muscle pain
- Muscle damage
- Liver damage
- Poor blood sugar control
- Nerve pain
These drugs also LOWER Coenzyme Q10 (an essential nutrient that your heart and brain need).
See, reducing cholesterol levels does NOTHING to extend the life of those taking these drugs – even if their cholesterol numbers drop.
Plus, the side effects are so horrible that most people end up stopping these drugs.
Statins are senseless because they are used to treat something that doesn’t need to be treated — because high cholesterol is not a main cause of heart disease. In fact…
- 75% of people who suffer from a heart attack have normal levels of cholesterol.
- You live longer if you have higher cholesterol.
- Dementia is higher in people with low cholesterol.
On the contrary, a low-fat diet (suggested to lower cholesterol) will increase blood sugar, heart disease, AND cancer!
It is clear from real scientific studies that FEARING cholesterol can be dangerous for your life.
What nobody tells you is that your body needs cholesterol – it is important for normal cell function, hormone production, and many other essential functions throughout your body.
