Stress and sugar are the causes of inflammation in the arteries so reduce sugar properly so no simple sugar at all and try to reduce stress.

This is your first option before “should I reduce or stop statins”

Statins are a band aid don’t cure the problem where reducing sugar and stress WILL REDUCE INFLAMMATION IN YOUR ARTERIES SO Cholesterol isn’t used to try and patch up the damage in your arteries

Cholesterol isn’t a problem if your arteries aren’t damaged!!!!!!!

Reduce the crap food guys

It's a good post, but it is also important to recognise carbohydrates as an ingredient in this problem as well - they are another form of sugar. In fact, some carbs (white bread, baked potato) can spike an insulin response more than table sugar.

But what about "healthy whole grains" you may ask? Well it's a better choice than refined grains, but it's still a bad choice.
