Description

Most people are told: your cholesterol is high, here’s a statin, especially if it's high LDL. End of discussion.

But what if that prescription isn’t always necessary? What if there are tests and questions that could completely change the outcome?

In this episode, we dive into the truth about statins and diabetes, the benefits, the risks, and the controversies you rarely hear about. You’ll also hear Mary’s story, how she was nearly put on statins but, with the right evidence and one extra test, discovered she didn’t need them at all.
