Beware of statins. Research everything. Two of my dear friends have been told recently that their mothers have Alzheimer's because they've been on lipitor for 10 years or more.

When my father died of an aortic aneurysm we were told that it's possible his statin drug over-stripped his blood vessels.

The Alzheimer's theory makes sense. Cholesterol is necessary for brain health.

Statins rip CoQ10 out of your body, very important for the heart. I am not a doctor, but I cannot stress enough how important Magnesium and Potassium are to the human heart, they reduce blood pressure, suppress diabetes, relax the veins, just so much good there. As long as you don’t have any kidney issues work things with Mag and Pottasium into your diet. Remember, always work with your doctor.
