1211. Revealing LDL Truth
The Doctor Is In Podcast - A podcast by Dr. A.W. Martin and Dr. A.P. Martin
It was Ancel Keys who first presented the theory that cholesterol causes heart disease. His theory turned LDL cholesterol into the bad guy and went on to become the common belief since the mid-1950s. Statin drugs do what they say they do and lower LDL cholesterol, but Dr. Martin asks why you’d want to do that? Cholesterol is essential to our body’s functioning and it turns out that lowering your LDL comes with consequences. Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn the long-term effects of using statin drugs to lower LDL cholesterol.
