Try to imagine a drug possessing the ability to cause DNA mutations using the same mechanisms that have evolved for natural aging. When confronted with a patient experiencing weakness and unsteadiness, muscle aches and pains, memory loss and depression, the quite natural response from most doctors is, “You have to expect this kind of thing now; you are over 50”. Most doctors do not have a clue as to the truth. It is not natural aging that has depleted you so. This is premature aging – aging in months according to many statin victims – and this entire complex of symptoms from a drug so safe that many doctors feel it should be put in the drinking water. The class of drugs is called statins, simple reductase inhibitors capable not only of lowering cholesterol but also CoQ10 and dolichols as well, leading directly to mitochondrial damage and mutation. No, this is not impossible. It is happening today to thousands of us.

The Dark Side of Statins

Statin treatment accelerates atherosclerosis – Uffe Ravnskov

Recently two separate studies showed that people on statin treatment develop atherosclerosis more often than untreated people. One of them was published in Diabetes Care, the other one in Atherosclerosis. You can get more details about this shocking finding in Dr. Mercola´s interview with senior scientist researcher Stephanie Seneff from MIT, who also is a member of THINCS. Read also Dr. Mercola´s comments about statin treatment.
