Why have I high cholesterol?

[Tibblington]

Have you asked yourself why you have high cholesterol?

As a retired life-long engineer there was one word ever present in my vocabulary and that word I was taught is, and was “why”. When your car consistently gives you trouble and you take it to the garage the technician doesn’t open the fuel cap and tip in a bottle of secret liquid and say there you are it should be O.K. now, no, the first word in his mind is, why. Why is this fault occurring? But does your doctor say why is this patient ill? I suspect hardly ever. Instead he will look straight away for a remedy, a quick fix! He thinks back to a paper he has read or a report on T.V. where he had heard about a wonder drug that will fix anything health-wise. He doesn’t stop to think about the source of the information he is thinking about.

I want it known that nothing I say here is my opinion but everything quoted has come from well establish members of the medical profession.

What is cholesterol? It is a product that is made in the liver and is a natural product in every cell of the body; it is important to the body function. One of the functions is a repair mechanism that goes immediately to a place of injury. Inflammation is an injury to the body not readily recognised. At this point I refer to a well respected heart surgeon with over twenty-five years of experience; read the text of his revealing lecture given to a group of medical students. There is nobody better to explain this subject. Go to : healthscams.org.uk/heart-su...

If you have the courage ask your doctor where he got his guidance on the prescribing of Statin drugs, in all probability it will be closely linked to Big Pharma. Papers are written by someone employed specially within Big Pharma and then signed off by a willing member of the medical profession. There is documentary evidence of this.

There is a book entitled “The Great Cholesterol Con” by Dr.Malcolm Kendrick, I recommend to everyone. Furthermore the highly respected Harley Street cardiologist, Dr. Aseem Malhotra does not recommend Statin drugs. He even said during an interview on T.V., that 80% of drugs produced by “big pharma” aren’t effective.

Now have you now asked yourself the question? Why am I ill or am I really ill?

I agree 100% with your opinion. I came to the conclusion through my own journey that the medical community has done a very good job of convincing the world that every adult has a disease of too much ldl cholesterol. In their own literature if you read what is actually being claimed you are being told that along with diet and exercise it is suggested that lowering your cholesterol MAY reduce risk. They can never say what your risk is, risk is an association, it is a guess at best. It also says in the literature, on all the ldl reducing drugs, that lowering your ldl with a statin has not been PROVEN to prevent heart attack. The only claim they make is statins reduce your Ldl, and they do. I choose to believe I no not have a disease of too much Ldl.
