In this video extract Glyn explains why it is vital that the body is able to make cholesterol in every cell. A healthy body will make about 3-4 g per day. Cholesterol is required by all the cells in the body and without it they will leak and fail.By blocking this process a statin can damage a large amount of vitality in all organs.

Tiny Vessels
Like all organs, our eyes rely on a complex network of blood vessels in order to function properly. Vessels supply blood to the retina, a thin layer of cells in the eye (shown here as pink, blue and red layers) that convert the light we see into electrical signals. If these tiny vessels develop badly, they can block the retina’s cells and cause vision loss. Scientists are studying a type of protein whose job is to keep a close eye on these vessels, and prevent them from growing awry. The team found that abnormal blood vessels were more likely to develop in mice that don’t have this protein in their retinal cells. Regions in their retina where this protein was missing are shown in bright green. This research helps us understand how specific proteins in the eye are there as a safeguard against vascular disease and ultimately, blindness.

Keeping in Shape
Stretch your skin and it springs back to shape – a property also possessed by the lining of your throat, inner ear, blood vessels and many other body parts. This springy tension is due to each surface cell having a tiny belt, formed by the proteins myosin and actin, wrapped around it, rather like an elastic band. Scientists have discovered that these belts are interlinked so that their stretching and squeezing actions spread like waves through the millions of cells, controlling the shape and movement of the surface (epithelial) tissue. Pictured (bottom) is a normal arrangement of surface cells of a rat’s intestine, with actin stained red and cell boundaries green. When myosin is chemically deactivated, the protein belts stop working, causing the cells to drift apart (top).

Cells use cholesterol to inhibit cation leakage through the membrane
bilayers. This is a really important paper. Click on the image to read it!
Lipid droplets are the vital transport. If lipids levels rise abnormally in the blood plasma, it is due to sugar-damage to the protein of the Apo labels. This prevents the lipids being recognised by the organ receptors. Organs become fat starved and we are then asked to stop eating fats and reduce cholesterol levels.
What kind of biochemical ignorance has engulfed the medical profession?
Not Good Not Bad – Just a vital 20% of all molecules in a healthy cell membrane.
Reduce cholesterol levels and the cells will fail.
