The bottom line is you will never get your cholesterol levels down as low with lifestyle as you will with a statin and in this case lower is better.

There is no good evidence that lowering cholesterol is an improvement to one’s health. In fact, the opposite may be true.

The truth is that nobody really knows yet what part of the modern lifestyle causes heart attacks, but at this point there’s reasonably strong evidence that cholesterol is not a causal factor.

That is completely false. We know exactly the pathology of a heart attack. Have you ever looked at an autopsy of the coronary arteries of someone who died of a massive heart attack. The pathogenesis lies in the accumulation of cholesterol in the wall of the arteries.

And what causes the accumulation of cholesterol?
