Lipitor and modified citrus pectin

[gotcancer]

Has anyone had experience taking Lipitor (atorvastatin) and modified citrus protein?

[HOPEFULSPOUSE]

Yes, my husband takes both.

Yes,... not so sure, in my case, about the efficacy of MCP... but continue to take, doesn't hurt I believe. Not see any "trend" in PSA or Bone AP due to mcp intake till now.

Yes take both. Atorvastatin 80mg a day and MCP 5 mg twice a day.

Interesting article though about the importance of taking Dipyridamole with a statin (which I do - 200mg twice a day).

Highlights

•

High HMGCR protein expression in prostate cancer is associated with poor prognosis.

•

Statin-mediated HMGCR inhibition induces apoptosis in a subset of prostate cancer cells.

•

Statin-induced SREBP2 activation modulates statin sensitivity in prostate cancer.

•

Inhibiting SREBP2 sensitizes prostate cancer cells to statin-induced apoptosis.

•

Combined statin and dipyridamole therapy significantly delays prostate tumor growth.

We had a thread on MCP a while back:

& one on statins 3 years ago:

I was in a brevity mode. I had some powder a year ago, and then every supplier I looked into was no longer shipping to Canada. No explanation why, either from them or from any government official I asked. II want to ask you as well, about your thoughts on its value, at least in your situation. Thanks.

[yamobedeh]

Excellent. Thanks.

I was buying ecoNugenics from Amazon until someone here on HU said the company site has good discounts. Sure enough, while a single jar is 16% more there, if you buy 10 jars they give you a 30% discount making it cheaper than Amazon. econugenics.com/pectasol-cr...

Great tip. Thanks.
