Cholesterol

"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery everyday. Never lose a holy curiosity."  Albert Einstein, Note applied to medicine Einstein is saying Clinical Experience trumps Medical Dogma every time, if the clinic disagrees with the dogma THROW the dogma, The corrupt establishment will not do this but we MUST

"First and foremost cholesterol is a vital component of every cell membrane on Earth. In other words, there is no life on Earth that can live without cholesterol. That will automatically tell you that, in of itself, it cannot be evil. In fact it is one of our best friends. We would not be here without it. No wonder lowering cholesterol too much increases one's risk of dying. Cholesterol also is a precursor to all of the steroid hormones. You cannot make estrogen, testosterone, cortisone, and a host of other vital hormones without cholesterol.”  Doctor Don Rosedale MD, widely considered to be the leading anti-aging doctor in the United State

“Dietary cholesterol contributes to the strength of the intestinal wall and helps babies and children develop a healthy brain and nervous system. Foods that contain cholesterol also provide many other important nutrients. Only oxidized cholesterol, found in powdered milk and eggs, contributes to heart disease. Powdered milk is added to 1% and 2% milk.”  Weston A. Price Foundation

“There are millions more adults who aren’t searching for ways to improve their arterial health. They incorrectly believe their arteries are healthy because their total cholesterol number is below 200. Adults with so-called healthy cholesterol numbers aren’t being told that as many adults experience a heart attack with a cholesterol count below 200 as over 300.” Bill Sardi

"I have never thought that the cholesterol theory of atherosclerosis was true. I heard about it for the first time in 1962 shortly after getting my MD. My biochemical knowledge was still intact at that time and I knew that cholesterol was one of the most important molecules in your body, indispensable for the building of your cells and for producing stress and sex hormones as well as vitamin D. The idea that cholesterol in the blood should kill us if its concentration is a little higher than normal, as they wrote in the Framingham paper, seemed to me just as silly as to claim that yellow fingers cause lung cancer.”   Doctor Uffe Ravnskov, MD, PhD  

“Among the more than 20,000 patients who have come to my clinic, only four or five of them truly needed cholesterol-lowering drugs.”  Doctor Joseph Mercola

“Those with cholesterol levels of 180 were at twice the risk of hemorrhagic stroke as those with cholesterol at 230. Risk of thrombotic stroke was twice as likely at cholesterol levels of 280 than at 230. ” American Heart Association, Note these numbers give us a rough idea of "normal" cholesterol in the US. At 180 our blood vessels may not have enough cholesterol for strength and become subject to rupture; 280 is a marker for disease of some sort, possibly atherogenic, in our bodies.  

"If you believe that you can ward off death by altering the amount of cholesterol in your blood, whether by diet or drugs... you have been taken in by commercial interest groups who are more interested in your money than in your life."  Edward Pinckney, PhD editor of JAMA ( [14] p 262)
