LDL cholesterol, apoprotein B, saturated fat, TMAO, statin cholesterol drugs: Over the last 40 years, we have been inundated with misguided advice on how to reduce your risk for coronary heart disease, i.e., risk for such things as heart attack, need for heart procedures such as stent implantation or bypass surgery, or sudden cardiac death, serious and often life-threatening events. Has it worked? 80 million Americans now take statin drugs to reduce cholesterol yet there has been no meaningful reduction in such events and, in fact, I’ll bet some of your local hospitals have added multi-million dollar wings for cardiac care, the number one moneymaker for hospitals and healthcare.
The tragedy of all this is that the focus on issues like cholesterol have taken everyone’s focus off the REAL causes of heart disease that are, in reality, easy to identify and manage. And it involves no pharmaceuticals, no restriction of dietary fat, but draws from a handful of common sense and natural strategies that, time and again, have allowed people to stop or even reverse coronary atherosclerosis.
