Here is a summary of article I thought you might be interested in. Lowering cholesterol by diet or drugs has not been shown to extend lifespan, Edward R. Pinckney, MD “[I]f you have come to believe that you can ward off death from heart disease by altering the amount of cholesterol in your blood, whether by diet or by drugs, you are following a regime that still has no basis in fact,” wrote Edward R. Pinckney, MD, editor of four medical journals and former co-editor of JAMA. “Rather, you as a consumer, have been taken in by certain commercial interests and health groups who are more interested in your money than your life.” [This is an article written by Uffe Ravnskov, MD PhD, and is an excerpt from his book The Cholesterol Myths: Exposing the Fallacy That Saturated Fat and Cholesterol Cause Heart Disease.] [Note: The book Fat and Cholesterol are Good for You is a shortened, simplified and updated version of Dr. Ravnskov’s first book, “The Cholesterol Myths”.] Here is the link to the entire article. http://fatnews.com/index.php/4874
