Dr Hyman siad recently that many patients who took statin  drugs to lower their cholesterol levels have had many seriopsu side effects. In my view,cholesterol biopchmeistry should have been taken into consideration when prescribing statin drugs. In  general, statin durgs inhibit a key enzyme in the cholesterol synthesis pathway, but also coenzyme Q10 and mevalonate. Coenzyme Q10 plays a vital role in heart health and the inhibition  of squalene, an inportant antioxidant  and anti-cancer agent is definitely harmful. In addition,  stress response moelcuyle calle Rho is activated  in cells causing diseases by inhibiting nitric oxide syntehsis, a powerful arterial dialtor that ionproves blood flow in critical heart arteries. Nitric oxide is also a powerful agent in the immune system.

IT is teherfore recommended that if statin drugs are really required, then they be supplemented at least by Coenzyme Q10 which can be obtained without prescription at a reasonable price. For doses, ask your doctor first.
