Statins appear to be relatively harmless since millions upon millions are taking them. It also seems to have an extra unexpected benefit in that it may reduce your risk of getting colorectal and prostate cancer. I'm all for that.

Yes, this is one of many. What's even more amazing is that medical professionals often buy into dogma.

Cholesterol has zero to do with heart disease, yet the few benefits of statins is that it happens to lower inflammation. Something that Vitamin C could easily match without the side-effects.
