More Bad News on Statins
Dr. Tim
Marshall in the AAPS journal reports that there are 900 articles in the medical
literature about the side effects of this group of drugs. Out of every 10,000 people on statins, there
are 307 extra patients with cataracts, 23 added patients with kidney failure,
and 74 additional patients with liver failure.
The incidence of erectile dysfunction is 10X higher in statin
users. Other adverse events include the
onset of diabetes, neuropathies, insomnia, memory loss, confusion, autoimmune
problems and muscle disorders. There are
reports that there might be an increased risk of cancer and actually an increased
incidence of cardiovascular disease in women, young people, and diabetics. Red yeast rice is just one of several
reasonable, natural alternatives. Check
with an integrative doctor.
