One thing that makes me mad is Dr's write prescriptions for Lipitor and other cholesterol lowering drugs like they are handing out candy. These drugs do lower cholesterol, however they have no clinically significant affect in reducing the number of heart attacks in the people who take these drugs! There is something else going on here! It is not simply the cholesterol number that causes the hear attack.
I'll stick to my oatmeal with Cinnamon. Oatmeal reduces cholesterol and cinnamon helps control blood sugar, and I am not poisoning myself!
I agree. A 100% natural diet with no additives. Lots of herbs and whole grains, gluten free if need be. Everything whole and pure and raw as much as possible. Plenty of fresh air and exercise. I know there are people who have no choice but to be on the drugs the doctors put them on but we really need to be advocates for our own health. There are so many people on so many drugs and they don't even question it. They feel more sick on the drugs than when they started taking them.
I cant take drugs at all they make me sick. I also have IBS and losts of other crappy things
really but I was told by one Dr that a lot had to do with me being English he said they cant take meds very well..
