Natural Alternatives to Lipitor, Zocor & Other Statin Drugs (The Square One Health Guides)

Having the looming prospect of taking statins in sight, I was interested to find a book that offered constructive, easy to follow advice - some of which I've applied, in a bid to avoid this kind of medication. I feel better, am more aware of my diet and supplements and can't wait to get my cholesterol checked next months.

For Cardiac patients, (like myself) who use to take Statins before reading this book, and for anyone not currently taking Statin drugs, but may be approaching the time when their medical practioners will prescribe Statins, I most heartily encourage obtaining and reading this book, along with Dr. Barbara H. Roberts, M.D. book, (The Truth about Statins) and following those readings, anyone still acceptive to being placed on Statins, all I can say is, "you are brave Souls, but for me, I couldn't get permanently off of Statins, "FAST ENOUGH !"

good information. better than one can get from a doctor

good read

I am reading this again to be sure I am clear on the natural supplements I can try to help reduce my LDL.

Recommended by a friend who has had very promising lowering of cholesterol following recommendations. We shall see if it works for me.

We have experienced no problems with this product. It arrived on time, and we are completely satisfied with the service.

This book was very helpful and informative. After my husband had a very very serious side effect from Satin drugs, we were looking for alternatives.

If you are interested in your health and particularly your heart health, this little book may be useful to you.I have read a number of books on this subject and would say this isnt the best of those books. I did expect a lot more from the titile. Saying that dont dismiss it, the information was useful and quite concise, but for this reason I only gave three stars, possibly a little harsh but I felt it didnt warrant four stars.If you have heart disease or known someone who has, then you should read books on the effect of inflammation on the heart and the body in general, since this is the problem. Cholesterol is not the killer we are led to believe, and Statins are not the cure all drug in respect of heart disease. Read books by Duane Graveline M.D. a NASSA astronaut and M.D. AND scientist. He has written extensively on the use of Statin drugs and their effects and their alternatives. He has 5 or 6 books available here on Amazon.If you have high cholesterol ask your Dr why you have it...its a symptom of a disease not a disease itself and so treating the high cholesterol levels with drugs such as Statins is not treating the cause...which may be hypothyroidism, since high cholesterol is one of its many symptoms and Statins are contraindicated in such circumstances. and educate yourself if you have these problems and this book is one good place to start, but dont stop here either.

Liked the fact it gave the information you need for a balanced argument for and against statins.
