When Did You Find Out LDL-Lowering Was Scientifically UNfounded?

Think LDL lowering is scientifically founded THIN GAIAN

Please read this thoroughly and see what researchers in Oc 2006 found when they went searching for this"compelling evidence"

i could also post a site/blog, etc stating anything that I please, without any scientific evidence, like in the site you posted. There have been studies (first one 4S, that was for simvastatin, one of the first statins) That showed that reducing LDL in patients can reduce not only cardiac deaths but also all type of mortality.
sometimes people who are not research oriented don't understand the difference between a good study and a pooled study in which you look at many other smaller studies and try to infere a conclusion. Basically, the studies that are well designed, with power, etc, show the opposite to what you say. some people may benefit economically from panic, like: "I wrote a book and in my book I show the LDL con..."
an LDL of 70 is desirable in some cases but for most people 100 or even 130 is ok. So please let us do our work based on real evidence and let's not focus on people who just like to talk and become rich from unaware readers like you and other poor souls...

When I learned about Anthony Colpo through http://www.google.com


I read his articles that were backed from the results of randomized clinical trials. Then I found out about Dr. Ravnskov.
Dr. Ravnskov was Anthony's inspiration

Any benefit seen in statins for patients WITH CHD is DUE TI THEIR ANTI INFLAMATORY , ANTI CLOTTING EFFECTS AND HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LDL- LOWERING

ALL the statin trials have shown that THE RISK OF HAVING A FATLA HEART ATTACK WAS REDUCED WHETHER THE CHOLESTEROL LEVELS WERE REDUCED BY A LARGE AMOUNT OR BY A SMALL AMOUNT
T


he J-LIT trial Japanese Lipid Interventiuon Trial showed HIGHEST MORTALITY IN PATIENTS WITH CHOLESTEROL LEVELS BELOW 160 mg/dl



YOU OBVIOUSLY ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH COLPO NOR DID YOU READ THE ARTICLE I GAVE YOU WITH ALL THE REFERNCES ALL THE REFERENCES



here is the info from 4S from COLPO


4S Simvastatin 10-40 mg Double Blind 5.4 years

Males and female CHD patients with high cholesterol


Number of participants drug/control group 2221/2223

CHD deaths drug/control group 111/189


Total deaths drug/control group 182/256


Relative risk for CHD mortality -41%


Relative risk for total mortality -29%




ALL of the statin trials are in COLPOS BOOK


STATINS IN NOP WAY CAN BE GUARANTEED TO PRODUCE A 1/3 REDUCTION IN CHD OR ALL- CAUSE MORTALITY IN HIGH RISK PATIENTS
