What’s the deal with statin drugs and “high cholesterol”? Even doctors are starting to raise questions. They say that “high cholesterol” is anything over 200 total, but where does this number come from? Is there evidence that cholesterol over 200 actually leads to heart disease? Why do we need cholesterol, and is it possible for it to get too low? On this episode of Vitality Radio Jared arms you with the information you need to decide what to do, if anything, about your “high” cholesterol.  

Pharmaceutical companies often develop drugs that target specific symptoms by interfering with the body's natural processes. These medications can be effective in providing temporary relief from symptoms, but they don’t usually address the underlying causes of a condition. This is called suppressive medicine, and such treatments may offer short-term benefits at the cost of long-term health. In this series of episodes on suppressive medicine, Jared aims to help you understand the ways in which these drugs work and what natural alternatives there are that work WITH your body’s natural systems to address the root cause and rebalance the body.
