The good, bad, and ugly side of cholesterol

Is cholesterol a problem for our bodies, Nature or our Higher Power will never tell medical or paleontological science. That the human body needs a cleaning mechanism. The bloodstream picks up impurities from the environment. So cholesterol develops as a house cleaner to provide a mechanism. To drop these substances.

Our Cro-Magnon ancestors

Our ancient ancestors, the Cro-Magnons. Suffered from poor diets and short isolation of their lives. Crow-Magnon Man is now accepted by paleontologists as a modern, man or Early Modern Man as a way to identify Paleolithic people who look like us but do not show modern traits. Also not available for fast food and pizza parlors.

Cavity diet

Most of what they eat consists of the meat they first hunted and killed, or the remains of their prey. Their diet consists of fried potatoes, fried onions, and cheese. They supplemented their meat diet with leaves, herbs, and roots. Of course, they don't need to wash what they eat because there are no insecticides. Or similar contaminants to pollute. But they are also likely to eat dirt and the base of the house salad. Dirt is often full of microbes and other crawling organisms.

To store cholesterol

Cholesterol produces in the liver. This raw material is fat from your diet. You could say that cholesterol works like a drain cleaner. The liver mixes proteins with liver-purified blood. And uses cholesterol molecules as a small delivery point. Cholesterol protects every cell membrane in our body. Cholesterol bombards our body's cells, disarming us from being healthy, rich, and smart.

As a healing mechanism, it functions to repair damaged blood vessels. That may burst or leak for various reasons, depending on the cholesterol disorder.

Helps convert sunlight into vitamin D, and releases certain nutrients. That helps your digestion.

That is why cholesterol is a very important substance floating in our blood. Otherwise, the cells of our weak body will shrink and die

The discovery of cholesterol.

Some say that a French doctor named DE la Sallie discovered cholesterol in the 1700s. , he wanted to keep the inspiration for himself, and people. Those who did not have the authority to publish it leaked it to the press.

Statin drugs appeared

More than two centuries later. Japanese scientists isolated a natural substance that many believed would slow down. The production of cholesterol in the liver. But this substance was too potent for humans. But they managed to kill several dogs during the research. It didn't take long for one of the big drug companies to pick up the idea and bring it to market. After increasing sales and billions of dollars. Statins have become the drug of choice for managing liver failure.

Adverse effects of statins

When my cardiologist prescribed a statin for my condition, I asked about the side effects. To name a few: headaches and sleep disorders. Muscle aches and pains, insomnia, nausea, stomach aches, and diarrhea. All I can say is, why would anyone submit to such legal torture? Well... because the doctor said it was necessary.

Yes, I have experienced many of these side effects, and some more have not been mentioned.

In my recent research, I found some second thoughts about the use of stains. Some people believe that stains are a cash cow for Big Karma. And some doctors believe that the latter is the problem.
