Yes, we will have to agree to disagree. I question and doubt any study that promotes a statin or drug because it is undoubtedly backed by Big Pharma. I prefer to believe the Canadian researchers (in the documentary) who have no stake in the game; nothing to gain.

The early Statin research, they didn't seem to realize the irony. They said the participants died from a variety of issues unrelated to high cholesterol, they felt confident that had they survived, it would have proven the efficacy of the drug.

1. I'm sure they all didn't die, but sufficient numbers must have died to spoil the statistics.

2. They were talking Early Statins.

3. I've been on Zocor for years.

4. Dietary changes are preferred to pharmaceutical intervention if the desired goals can be reached.

5. I think that some of the goals are unrealistic and lead to doses that are too high and possibly other issues from that.
