Everything about Cholesterol - Wrong?

Last time you read about five drugs that are coming under fire because of safety issues. One of those five is a statin drug called Crestor. Statin drugs have been linked to fatigue, kidney failure, muscle breakdown, and death. Yet they are the most commonly prescribed drugs in the U.S. today.
When it comes to treating cholesterol, traditional medicine is allowing pharmaceutical companies to dictate patient care. Statins treat the symptom and not the cause.
And as you'll learn - a surprising new study shows that the whole traditional approach to cholesterol has been nothing more than a band-aid at best. Natural hormones are the key to healthy cholesterol metabolism. Today I'm going to tell you about this study and what it means to your heart health.
- Cholesterol Is Key Ingredient to Make Hormones *Despite its bad reputation, your body desperately needs LDL (bad cholesterol) to produce new cells and hormones. In fact, LDL is the fundamental building block of hormones, such as pregnenolone, DHEA, progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone. Your body uses these hormones to heal and repair damage from the aging process or injuries.
It is evident how important bad cholesterol is to your health when you consider what happens when LDL levels are too low (under 160):
Accelerated aging.
Mental instability and increased risk of suicide.
Chronic fatigue.
Loss of libido.
Depression.
Conventional medicine also tells us that we get too much cholesterol in our diet or produce too much in our liver. But an amazing discovery by two medical advisors reveals something much different. The underlying cause of excess cholesterol comes from a simple hormone deficiency linked to aging itself.
The results showed that by properly replacing hormones lost to aging over six years, 100% of the patients experienced a major reduction in cholesterol.
As your body ages the production of hormones starts to decline. And your body tries to correct the imbalance by increasing cholesterol, the building block for steroid hormones. So by returning hormones back to the levels you had when you were 20 or 30, cholesterol rebalances itself as well.
The study suggests that when you artificially lower cholesterol with a statin, you depress the imbalanced hormones even further. That's why many people on statins suffer severe fatigue, depression, loss of libido, muscle weakness and pain. And run the risk of cancer, suicide, weight gain and impotency. These are the same symptoms and risks associated with age-related steroid hormonal deficiency.
You end up in a vicious cycle. The hormone imbalance causes cholesterol to rise. You take a statin to lower the cholesterol. The statin knocks the hormones down even further. Your body tries to compensate with more cholesterol…and round it goes.
- Cure the Cause, Not the Symptom *
The lesson here is to "Just Say No" to statins. Get your hormones balanced instead. Have your doctor check for pregnonolone, DHEA, testosterone, progesterone, and estrogens.
Ninety nine percent of people can regulate cholesterol simply by restricting grains and sugars. If you need more help than this, work with a doctor who understands bio-identical hormone therapy. Do not use synthetic hormone mimicking drugs. Like any drug, they carry many risks and side effects.
In your next letter, you'll read about a better way to lower your risk for heart disease than worrying about cholesterol.
To Your Good Health,
