Statins and Parkinson's
Yet another one to add to the Management Of Statin Damage list. Is it any wonder given the impact of drugs on so many already depleted essential nutrients?

However, following the dictates of shills, shysters, chiselers and quacks (aka the medical and pharma Mafia) that discourages addressing the cause/s, not surprisingly, will only do diddly squat.... but will keep you a patient for life. Meanwhile, they go laughing to the bank. To add insult to injury they already know everything in this email as it is mainly extracted from their own mainstream literature! !

Scientist Raises Fears Over Statins And Parkinson's (Original is here)
Daily Telegraph -15/01/2007
By: Presswatch
Scientists are to investigate why people with low cholesterol levels appear to be more likely to develop Parkinson's disease, following concerns that statins, given to control cholesterol, could cause an increase in the numbers of people with the illness. The move follows a warning from Dr Xue Mei Huang, an assistant professor of neurology at the University of North Carolina's School of Medicine, who carried out a study which found that patients with low levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) - or so-called 'bad cholesterol' - were three times more likely to have Parkinson's than those with high levels. Dr Huang claimed she was "very concerned" about the implications of her study's findings, and now intends to conduct a 16,000-patient study to examine the possible role of statins, which actively lower levels of LDL to reduce the risk of heart attacks and stroke. Around 2.7 million people in England take statins such as pravastatin, atorvastatin and simvastatin, and the British Heart Foundation yesterday maintained that the drugs saved lives and nobody should stop taking them on the basis of the study's findings.
No wonder - The brain has the highest concentrations of cholesterol in the human body. It is not for nothing that some men are called "fat heads!" Joking aside, however, big pharma likes to invent new patentable and therefore potentially highly profitable molecules that do not exist in nature for the purpose of interfering -as in the case of lowering cholesterol artificially - with the body's fat metabolism. A big price now being paid, aside from the increased risk of Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, is the epidemic of heart failure - not heart attack - but heart failure because of the Co enzyme Q 10 depletion effect caused by statins along with other drugs known to deplete the body of this essential factor that cardiologists are likely to be prescribing for their patients. - Croft Woodruff
