Thank you for your most enlightening video Graham and Aseem.The problem is not just with overprescribing statins,but also antibiotics (for both humans and farm animals),antidepressants ,painkillers etc.To quote Charles Simmons : " Sickness is the vengeance of nature for the violation of her laws".
Pleasure. We’re on a mission and I think we’re winning !
I'm a very healthy 56 y.o my cholesterol has been playing since I was diagnosed with Hypothyroid for more than 30 years. I take Levothyroxine 75mg every morning and do a blood test once a year as a routine and it looks all ok. For the past 3 years, I went into a deep detox, cut off sugar, and carbs, and dairy-free, no red/ white meat. Eating all kinds of organic veggies, fruits, seeds, chia, and flaxseed, drinking only filtered water(glass bottle), eliminating all fluoride on toothpaste, makeup, soap, and shampoo, and using only natural products. Every night I do core exercises and during work weeks I use stairs(climb 10 floors), I used to run mini/marathons due to back issues and I do only core exercises and intense walks. Since all this, I feel so much more energetic, with no fog brain, and I'm finishing my first year of degree in Law school⚖. The last blood test was very impressive, my cholesterol had a low result of 5.0 compared with 7 or something like that. My GP was pushing statin all the time. I refused and said I would sort it out in my way with a proper detox. Done it, and on my last visit, she was surprised and trying to find words or something else to push another drug. 😁🙂🙏
Well done 🤗
The BHF site is very pro statin and uses scary statistics around stopping them. If doctors are being financially rewarded for prescribing them I am immediately wary of their efficacy.
all gratitude for fabulous education and solid men!
When someone has a heart attack or intervention surgery, they do one of two things. They continue their lifestyle, eg smoking, bad food, sedentary lifestyle etc, or they change. Do the statistics change accordinly?
From previous Dr Malhotra videos, I had the impression he didn’t think there was a place for statins, given risks vs. benefits, even if after a heart attack ! This video leaves us wondering…
No I don't agree. I cant speak for @Aseem obviously but I've always understood his perspective (which I share) that statins ARE appropriate for certain people. Our objection is the way health systems want virtually everyone to take them with no real regard to net benefit/net harm
When an informed decision is made without complete data, how effective is it?
A Surgeon relies on colleagues for the Science and biochemistry is already about as complicated and individualistic as it gets.
So the decision made by the user has a major component based in trust in empirical data, mostly Placebo, not so much objective medicine. I'm willing to defend my Doctors decisions with my life. The side effects of Statins is apparently only affecting 20% of Patients, so run your own Trial and argue with, not against, the medical system, unless you have already received the drugs.., I'm regretting not trialing the Nocebo effect of the strategy of Fasting I was eventually compelled to do sooner.
Fabulous video thank you.
We’re basing all our arguments on published data. Evidence. Not conjecture or ideology. Hope that reassures. Thanks. Graham
So what shall I do!?? I've got 3 statins put in my body after getting a strong pain in my chest once.. Been taking statins since..Very strange. Money is EVERYTHING in the US of A.. I live in NYC but was born in the UK .. (Within the 'Sound of Bow-bells.. ! ) My medications are covered by my insurance ... etc. However are statins not good for me?
Feel free to book a free of charge, not obligation exploratory call. We can discuss
When l get cholesterol tests, the results are just two numbers, for instance my last test result was 3.2 which means nothing to me, and this is the only results l receive no further information like HDL, its been like that for me for the last 5yrs.
Can anyone understand the website address prof aseem notes at about 16:30?
Its a website that shows how many people need to be treated for one person to get a benefit plus how many of those people are harmed in some way. In another words risk/benefit analysis
@@grahamXphillips what is the website address. URL. I'd like to see for myself.
Is that VNNT , couldn’t quite get it?
The NNT
what if you have FH
FH alone isn't a risk factor. There are people with massively high cholesterol with whistle-clean arteries. HOWEVER in some people FH is associated with enhanced clotting (they are on the same gene) and those people are are MUCH greater risk. So its all about clotting factors. If you have FH its vitally important to check for enhanced clotting factors
Who cares about the NNT for 5 years unless you're, like, 75 years old? What's the NNT for 30 years?
Interesting...seems the arguments rebuked here are very familiar...nee "..ccines"!!!
And climate change...
Just like they say the towers fell down because the aircraft hit them, heart diseases will go down with the help of statins..
