High Cholesterol Is Easy To Cure, And You Don’t Need High Price Statin Drugs To Accomplish It
I recently read an article which was medically reviewed by a doctor who had an impressive bunch of letters behind his name. The article was basically stating that alternative methods for dealing with high cholesterol are possible but at the end of the reading experience it becomes clear that the article was really there to tout the benefits of statin drugs for lowering cholesterol while diminishing the benefits of dietary and lifestyle changes. This article moreover had the nerve to strongly imply that alternative treatments such as a plant based diet, pure water, and regular exercise might put you at risk of nasty side effects. All the while it continued to imply that statin drugs were free of these dangerous concerns.
Have you ever read your pharmeceutical cholesterol lowering drug label? If you haven’t please take the time to do so now. You will notice that there are a host of dangerous side effects listed on each label and the worst side effect listed is death. It seems to me that these unsavory side effects merit the label “DANGEROUS” on every exceedingly high priced prescription bottle. Shall we put this same label on a Sunkist Navel Orange? I don’t think so!
Doctors and Big Pharma don’t make billion dollar profits on their laboratory made synthetic drugs if nobody is sick. Sometimes they can convince you that you are sick through targeted advertising campaigns so that you are persuaded that you desperately need their outrageously high priced drugs, but more often than not they don’t need to convince you that you are sick because your unhealthy lifestyle has done that for them. All they really have to do is sell you on the fact that they have a magic pill that will make you all better.
Statin drugs are no different. They mask the uncomfortable symptoms caused by your unhealthy animal based diet, your heavy consummation of high fructose corn syrup, trans fats, milk and eggs, in addition to your ”couch potato” lifestyle. The drugs do not and cannot heal you but they do cover up the unpleasant symptoms, nevertheless, the root problem still festers and grows.
If you have high cholesterol today you should know that Big Pharma and the doctors who have been bought by them have a band aid for your problem. It is very expensive and it comes with a host of dreadful consequences, but they stand to make such a profit that you will never get the straight scoop from them. You also will probably never hear from them that your cholesterol could be forever brought into safe levels by simple dietary and lifestyle changes. This dietary reformation would save you a bunch of money each month and a little extra exercise is also free.
The bottom line is that articles such as the one I read which was “medically reviewed” by an “MD, MPH”, that implied that natural health cures such as dietary changes and exercise might come with nasty side effects, while statin drugs made in some remote laboratory pose no such risks, are a common theme among medical practitioners. It is easy to see that the almighty dollar has shaped their opinion as opposed to truth or even common sense. Please do not be duped into giving a high percentage of your weekly paycheck to pay for these dangerous drugs with a profit margin of 500,000 percent or more. Opt instead for a change in diet and lifestyle that will not only save you a bunch of money at the grocery store, but will forever cancel your need to mask unsavory symptoms by the use of high priced synthetic drugs. Any doctor who would deny this is nothing less than a fraud.
For your sake and that of your family, don’t take the bait. Acquire your health and healing by means of a healthy immune system boosted by healthy fruits, vegetables, beans, seeds, whole grains, nuts, sunshine, fresh air, pure water and exercise. The benefits of these will never be matched by a drug made in a laboratory. Lowering your cholesterol is really quite easy if you choose to do it the natural way. It has a near 100 percent success ratio and there are literally no side effects. It really is a no-brainer, isn’t it?
