It's completely true - I'm my paranoid schizophrenic brother's unpaid life carer ... Yesterday he got a rare " how are you doing" phonecall from head doctor at his local doctors.. ... My brother mentioned some things & he replied " ok I'll get the girls to make an appt to see me & I'll have you some bloods done " .... His appointment came through But not with himself or Any doctor Only the nurse... .... He left his comfort zone & safe place & turned up to the doctor's & the nurse didn't have a single clue about doing Any blood tests 🤔🤔🤔 .... But what she did do is to take his blood pressure (like normal) & then said how it was high ( like it's been for years when tested ) ..... Then she left & came back with a take home blood pressure machine and said test yourself for a week & don't worry if it is high we have a medication you can take for that 👍 ...... Don't tell me that his visit was NOTHING more than to get someone pop statins because of the COVID jab , Regardless of whether they need them or not 🤔 In ALL the years of having high blood pressure they've NEVER offered my brother a machine to suddenly take home... That call to my brother was NOT A " HI HOW ARE YOU, BECAUSE I CARE " telephone call .

40-75% of patients stop their statins within one year of starting. The mainstream medical community digs in its heels and thinks the solution is to browbeat patients more strongly to get them to conform, rather than taking a step back and asking themselves why statins are being rejected by the patient community and finding more effective, less harmful therapies.

Altho I'm currently in the best shape I've been for some time, about three years ago I had a stent placed in my heart and immediately thereafter my doctor put me on a statin. Granted it's a low dose statin, but I nonetheless wonder that with the great improvement in my overall health, including A1c, weight, blood pressure, and virtually all my blood panels, do I still need to take it.

I think you already answered your own question about the need to take a statin drug -- regardless of dosage. I have concluded, over the years, that statins are more harmful than helpful, i.e. they cause too many significant side effects that far outweigh any miniscule benefit they propose to offer. And, there are many other things you can do to get the same 'benefits' that statins propose -- that is if you are still wedded to the idea that you must lower your cholesterol. What is even more important is getting better informed about all the misinformation still being touted around cholesterol as a bad thing and a precursor to heart disease. It is deeply misunderstood in the allopathic medicine profession [by design] and the general public have been misinformed for years. Find the experts who explain about the real causes of heart disease / heart dysfunction. They -- doctors who've eschewed the dogma, and backed by scientific studies -- have been proving for a long time, that heart dysfunction is not caused by high cholesterol levels.

The studies your speaking of largely measure the ability of a statin to lower LDL cholesterol which they do a good job of. I would ask that you post the studies you are speaking to so people can read the data themselves. The studies your speaking of do not look at extending life because they are limited time studies mainly looking at the medication's ability to lower cholesterol. Healthy people with elevated cholesterol are at a high risk of developing atherosclerosis which leads to increased odds of stroke and heart attack as well as other vascular complications which I hope is not being contested here. To say that there is a one percent improvement in healthy individuals taking a statin is inaccurate and misleading. Statins are not presctibed to improve one's 5 year stroke or heart attack history. They are taken to prevent complications on a much longer time frame. I however do agree with you that lifestyle and diet are also essential so thank you very much for addressing this issue as well. For people with familial hypercholesterolemia however (which is not affected so much by what we eat) we have the statins to help improve long-term outcomes for these patients.

Agreed. Malhotra has gone even further down the quack pathway during CV. He cites spurious studies, including a paper that is total crap published in an obscure journal on which he is an editor. No conflict on interest there. I hadn't heard of him before CV, but I see he has a record of populist 'contrarian' doctor rhetoric. I find him deluded and untrustworthy.

I heard him say there was a reduction in Absolute risk over 5 years of around 1%. Doctors habitually tell us the Relative risk. To explain the difference is simple. Imagine your baseline risk of whatever the event might be is 2%. The doctor tells you by taking drug A you will reduce that risk by 50% but he doesn’t say anything about the baseline risk. The patient thinks - wow that’s a big difference. So is compliant and does as they are told. Happy Doctor, very happy drug manufacturer! What would the patient say if they understood that the risk to them had decreased by 1%? Would they be so keen - especially if the doctor also pointed out the potential side effects?

There's not good clinical reason to push absolute risk vs relative risk reduction, and that's bio stat 101. From an intervention POV, relative risk makes more sense to apply, hence why it's used in such a setting. I suspect Dr Malhotra is well aware of that, which has me question his motives for the claim made in this vid. Highly recommended is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIO1dWukjaqsfa8
