In her book, she says that over the last few decades she had been prescribing statins for her patients when it was indicated, & initially, these medicines seemed safe & reasonably well tolerated. But the more she learned about statins, both from the experiences of her own patients, & in the medical literature, the more concerned she become.
Dr. Roberts will share her point-of-view on:
-Whether statins are a Miracle Cure as they have been touted by many cardiologists to be. How
solid is the science behind justifying treating people with statins?-What are common side effects & how rare are they?-How about
Red Yeast Rice as an alternative?-Is Cholesterol a vital part of every cell in our bodies & essential for the normal functioning of muscles, nerve cells, & the brain & how she feels they react if they are chronically starved of a chemical necessary for their proper function?-Do
women have more side effects & different results than men?
