Statin Medications Are Making You Sick

I will attach a patient educational video to this blog. I did this lecture for my patients because it is a common issue with patients taking statin medications, since it can result in chronic muscle aches and cramps. The Statin medications cause pain because they interfere with your muscle physiology. The kicker is the statin medications are not even preventing heart disease, but instead they lead to liver disease. The muscle pain statin medications cause is just the tip of the iceberg of side effects of an unnecessary dangerous medication. The true cause of heart disease is oxidative stress leading to the inflammatory process.
