Statins give me extreme joint pain. My sister is a surgeon and said they're terrible for you.
Thank you
My cholesterol under 200 as well as my triglycerides., but my doctor keeps me on then.i don't like how I feel when I take statins.
@@melaniehazen6391 Get a different doctor. You have to be your own health advocate
@@melaniehazen6391 carnivore or keto diet helps get you off statins not too mention heaps of benefits Look up Dr Ken Berry.
@@lisamcdonald7125 any diet that removed refined food works. Those diets can be dangerous unless done properly.
I'm a vegan, 5'7", 110 lbs, and exercise everyday. My doctor put me on a statin. I will absolutely NOT take it.
I won't take them either. But I suggest you do some reading up on heart disease and cholesterol. it's more about genetics than how much you exercise and food.
Good for you! Cholesterol is more about ratios.
@@VampcatVvvvV B.S.
@@LisaMurphy She's right- at least for some people. If one has high Lp(a), diet and exercise won't help at all, since it's genetically predetermined.
I have it, which has resulted in a high calcium score (Agatston Score), leaving me more vulnerable to having cardiac events. Niacin is the only known treatment and has helped somewhat, but not as much as I'd hoped. It dropped Lp(a) from 140 to 28 at first, then went up to around 55, where it hovers. It should be below 30.
I am trying several different wholistic approaches to try to dissolve the calcium build-up, but am not sure of the results. I need to get another calcium scan.
Taking Vitamin K2 is vital, as it directs calcium away from soft tissue and into the bones. Vitamin C with lysine and proline is another approach. Just do some online searching and you'll find alternative info.

I would suggest taking red yeast over pharmacy options. It’s a nature statin.
No matter what medical professionals say statins have horrible and dangerous side effects.
Nattokinase will clear out your arteries as well and garlic per day.
I agree. I will always opt for natural alternatives over big pharma.
There are a lot of natural poisons.
I need to check this out. My hubby had a heart attack & was put on statins. He's been on them for pier 3 years & wondering if that's why he's always so tired. He had a stent put in as well. We worry that if he doesn't take the meds, He could habe another heart attack. 😟
@@goldierule1350 I totally understand your predicament. It’s hard to know what’s best to do and there’s lots of conflicting information from different sides. I posted this in a regular comment but like to share info where I can, so I’m gonna paste it here too. What I’ve learned about cholesterol makes more sense as to what the body is actually doing. Instead of little to no explanation given by most practitioners, other than LDL is too high/bad etc. (as with all too many things in ‘modern’ medicine that treat symptoms rather than causes). Best to you both 💕 Here’s that other comment I made earlier:
I know this will be long, but here are some notes on took (because I’m trying to help my parents) from a heart health summit video, giving more insight into a more informed and complete picture of cholesterol. Take the time to read this and learn a little into what your doctor won’t tell you/doesn’t know. And if you research into the clinical studies on statins, you’ll see the proof of how they do not work to actually improve your health outcomes (like chance of having heart-related event or dying from it). Anyway, here’s the notes. Take from it what you will.
..............
Cholesterol -conventional world anything over 200 is high and heart doctors will whip out a prescription for over LDL 200. HOWEVER a cholesterol of 250 has actually been shown to have a Lower rate of all-cause mortality, than a cholesterol Under 200. But you gotta look at the ratio. Example: LDL 150, HDL 80 (and say 20 of other subtypes of cholesterol)...that’s a ratio of LDL/HDL roughly less than 2...that number should always be Under 3, so that’s very healthy.
(But really LDL gets high because more of it is needed to transport lipids to damaged cells)
When cells are becoming damaged from inflammation, they need more of these Repair molecules; more phospholipids, more fat soluble nutrients, therefore LDL goes up. LDL is the CARRIER, taking these things out there. HDL is taking back whatever is left, back to the liver.
When looking at cholesterol, look at RATIOS. Though they call LDL the ‘bad’ cholesterol, they’re actually life-saving, bringing key nutrients out to the cell. Your LDL should be 3 parts or less to every 1 part of HDL. (LDL/HDL). The more damaged your body is, the more LDL Is needed to carry that ‘cargo’ out there. And HDL is bringing back the cargo that’s leftover, whatever’s not needed by the cell, the HDL is brining back. So if your body is really inflamed, you’re gonna use all that HDL and your gonna have lower HDL and higher LDL. Gotta find out what’s Causing the inflammation and damage. Without enough HDL, toxicity is building up and you’re not getting the crap out. This is what’s happening to so many people out there. (Herbs can help, parsley, oregano, basil, sage; all those types of bitrer herbs, cilantro, dandelion, milk thistle, thyme, arugula, mustard greens, they all help bile flow. Bile flow is one way we get ride of toxic cholesterol-because cholesterol, once we’ve used it, goes into the bile, and bile is an emulsifier (helps to emulsify fats so we can digest it properly. it’s also a way we detox. Bitter is good for the liver (like bitter herbs mentioned above). Those herbs help stimulate bile flow, help get rid of that cholesterol that’s been used up which helps get rid of a bunch of toxins and sweep it through our system in our feces. Take in Lots of antioxidants-very protective.
@@goldierule1350 tiredness and depression are also side effects.
I had serious side effects from all three statins. Cant take any of them. Muscle weakness so bad i could not move. Exercise and plant based diet is helping me with this issue.
Berberine or garlic are good choices to help with cholesterol.
@@swissmiss6526 I tried those but they didn’t help enough. Thanks though.
Why do you take statins? Someone told you that cholesterol is bad? Your body controlls cholesterol level perfectly. If it's raised it can be a sign od infection, but it's not cholesterol fault, that's body response. Don't eat sugar (maybe less fruits) and other carbs. You need more meat and fat to be heathy.
No statin is safe. Period! Why dont you tell your audience about thw foods that cause cholesterol to oxidize?
I feel the same. I have also heard that cholesterol is not a bad thing. Please contact me on what you know!
Exactly wtf is he letting this lunatic pharma shill have a platform . Its not one percent who get side effects . Besides Tylenol it's one of the main killer drugs.
Oh wow. I am disappointed in this one. I believe it is not ok to mask a problem with a pill. Fix the actual problem. Very disappointed 😞
Steve Jobs thought that way, too. He’s dead now
I absolutely agree. Western medicine is good for acute care, and nothing else. If you want to stay healthy, stay away from the doctors, learn your body, and learn about herbs. I'm 58 and all of my children and grandchildren do not take pharmaceuticals and I raised them by limiting doctor's visits and healing them by natural means. They remain very healthy to this day - as do I.
Not everyone feels that way. What about familial high cholesterol? Can’t fix genetics.
Statins are simply a marketing ploy.
No, they're more than that. They're POISON.
💥👍
General Rule of Thumb - Stay away from pharmaceuticals
Unless they are prescribed by a doctor you trust. Saying "Stay away from pharmaceuticals" makes as much sense as saying don't eat, because it makes you fat and bad food can kill you.
@@David-nq4qi Nope. Stay away from pharmaceuticals, I am 60 years old with a spinal cord injury and several surgeriers under my belt. I can attest to the FACT that pharmaceuticals will shorten your life and complicate it in the interim. If they are needed, then it is for the short term and the goal is to get off them asap. Period. The number one cause of death in this country is medical treatments prescribed by doctors that people trusted. Don't be naive
Every time I watch one of your videos I can't get this song out of my head it plays all day long.
Heart attack and stroke are not caused by a lack of statin. Why not address the root causes: hypertension, inflammation, metabolic diseases, smoking (still!). Cure yourself with good nutrition. Ditch the sugar, grains and seed (vegetable) oils.
Sooo true!
Right on!!!!!
I was so sick taking statins I thought I was dying. Spend all that time in bed, could not move! Do not take, ever!
I agree.....
Same happened to me!
Why is he not talking about supplementing co-q10 while using statins?
Exactly!! Could it possibly be there is no profit in co-q10
If high cholesterol causes strokes and heart attacks why do some people with "normal" or low cholesterol have strokes and heart attacks? Research shows that these events are likely caused by inflammation in the body created by ultra processed foods, high levels of carbs/sugar and the resulting T2D. Statins are big business!
Follow a low carb lifestyle and your cholesterol will go down.
Father in law developed ALS from statins. Then they suggested him get inoculated. It makes me wonder. In both cases, the consumer is on their own. Pharma won’t even say sorry. They would rather you take drugs than tell you to clean up your diet....
I am so sorry about your Father in Law. How do you know he got ALS from statins? My Dad also had ALS, but he was not on a statin. I have never heard of statins causing ALS.
They never helped my mother, she continued to have TIA's and strokes while on lipitor.
Im just shocked that these guys push antidepressants and other big pharma depopulation products..i like you guys you mean well but sheeesh😨
RIGHT.
Exactly !

Statins and leg cramps...:-(
I get those; also sore ribs and muscles all the time!
Same, been running for years and it's stopped me with achilles pain
Thank you so much for this conversation
If someone was just judging from the public comments here, 99% of people taking statins have serious side effects….
Following a minor stroke, I have been taking Atorvastatin for years without any negative effects, but I am alarmed by the multitude of scaremongers on CZcams talking about the negative effects of statins. If I had not watched this video, I might have been persuaded to stop taking something that may be what is actually helping to keep me alive. My thanks to Brad, Chris, and executive Producer Bob, who we all miss, but still appreciate his behind the scenes input.
Bob and Brad, get with the current research.
Which is?
I’ll be 77 this year. My cholesterol is usually over 300 and has been for forty years. I’ve tried 4 or 5 different statins as requested and finally gave up on them because of the way I felt. I just don’t worry about it anymore
Wow! My cholesterol was always around 220-240 and I just had a heart attack 3 months ago. I am 59.
Awesome segment
Very disappointed you would even discuss this. You’re giving big pharma a microphone. Why not discuss low carb eating instead? All forms of sugar cause disease in the body. I will be unsubscribing if you decide to go this route again.
Really, this is bad advice in this video -- evil propaganda.
Well said !
I tried 3 different statins and had really bad side effects to all of them. I should have quit while I was ahead. Nightmare on the third one. Weak, shaky, cramping muscles, stiff joints and I’m still having the side effects 7 weeks after stopping the drug. Dr said it could take up to 6 months to get back to normal. Hopefully I do. I’m 5’ 9 1/2” 152-155lbs I eat pretty well and exercise quite a bit so that has nothing to do with the high cholesterol or side effects. I’m a Farrier so I have a very physical job which is a nightmare with what’s going on. My point is you can be in good shape and still have problems. I was stupid to take the first one let alone a third. Proceed with caution.
Bob and Brad, please stay in your lane. Statins have very little benefit and numerous side effects.
RIGHT.
Wrong. Statins have helped me. My arteries are clear and it is because of the atorvastatin that I take. Heart disease runs in my family. So does high cholesterol.
@@dianethoroughman9541 you don’t know
If they helped. Just because you haven’t had any issues with your heart doesn’t mean you would have if not on statins.
@@dianethoroughman9541 My cardiologist told me that my blocked artery won't get any better! I'm on statins!
@@barryc733 Curious what else the doctor suggested? exercise, change in diet?
Very good information. I wish that medical staff would start the conversation about lifestyle changes. As an In-Patient Acute Care Rehab Registered Nurse, I would focus on diet changes for home. Plus, the Physical Therapist, not the "Most Famous PT", would focus on exercise to assist with restoring strength while healing. I am someone that was seeing in-patient hospitalizations because patients were looking for the silver bullet. A pill that could prevent them from heart attack, stroke and other maladies. I was seeing the statins as the slippery slope to other issues, renal and liver issues. Then patients were taking medications to assist BP because of renal insufficiency. Patients need responsible education and take responsibility for their body. Thanks for this info and encouraging patients to take care of themselves.
Sir my should dislocates whenever i make sudden movement but i can do pushups with only a slight pain, can i continue doing pushups. Or is there any chance of further damaging.
Not sold on Statins
My dad and one of his friends lost walking ability after taking statins, it wipes out all your Coq10. They stopped taking them and luckily could walk again. Statins also block all good fat to your brain.
Curious to know if anyone was paid social media influencer fees to do this video ?
Why? They’re paid from CZcams for posting their videos. This is just generic, basic medical info
hey "Bob and Brad" my right elbow pops when it fully extends. it also pops/grinds when i rotate my wrist i have a physical therpist appointment in 2 days but would really appreciate your guys opnion on it. it is painfull sometimes
Maby do a video about Strong pain killers like the one i asked about in Live stream Tramadol(maby called Ultram in usa?) and maby others what are good and what is bad and what might be better to take instead? :D Love the content as allways :)
Tramadol is one of the weakest pain killers
@@dannedifyoudo intersting cuz in europa the Ibux(Ibuprofen) type and Paracett(paracteamol) kind gos for the weakest in eu, you can buy it without prescription and evenin normal store. while Tramadol Paralginforthe or PinexForthe you need prescription from doctor every time atleast in Norway :)
@@StigDesign You need prescription for Tramadol in the US as well.
@@NansGlobalKitchen I thought so :) thank you for the info :)
Statins gave me mini strokes! I now have double vision and will for the rest of my life! This class of drugs is DEADLY! Check into Linus Pauling therapy! Has greatly helped me! Angina gone!
This video was a disservice using 20 year old info, this is why all doctors should have a recertification class every 5 years! 1. there are 2 subtypes of both cholesterol (type 1 - good , 2 - bad) 2. the biggest reason that is never brought up about why HD & S is your hormones are off, bring a "life extension immunologist on this show" they'll tell low T is the #1 killer of men and effects all aspects of your health not just maintaining wood, it just as important for women to maintain their estrogen levels too, but it easier to sale you a pill for your remaining years then fix the root cause.
I got awful brain fog from atorvastatin so I stopped taking it.
Can you please do a video on psoriasis Arthritis
Keto and Carnivore have had terrific results with both.

Here in Brazil we reduce our LDL by blending apple juice with apple vinegar on the mixer and then drinking it on a daily basis (drink it with a straw, so the vinegar won't destroy your teeth's enamel).
There are scientific studies which empirically found that fruit vinegars do indeed reduce LDL. Pomegranate vinegar, pear vinegar, apple vinegar and balsamic vinegar provided the best results - specially pomegranate vinegar.
I am a 69yo white male. Still surfing (poorly) and in otherwise great health. Because of a genetic propensity for high cholesterol and triglycerides, I take 300mg Gemifibrozil and 500mg Slo Niacin. It keeps everything under control, but I get extremely dry skin on my face. Also wonder if diarrhea could be a side effect?
I love you guys and would not dispute the presentation of a professional. That said there is much current research out now to dispute some of those findings. Many patients would benefit from a better nutrition, Statins have numerous side effects one is Diabetes Type II. Big Fat Surprise by Nina Teichholz is a very researched book, your local library has it either as book or audio, great book. thefatemperor.com/podcasts/

Worth a try. 😀
Greaaaaat video good
Only statin I’d like to dabble with is follistatin 💪🏼
You must watch and question everything. Doctors do not study these drugs. I used to like to think pharma was 50% for good, now I question this.
Low Carb Diet.. there. done.
Good information, thanks! Much heart disease in my family but hoping to stay off meds as long as possible!
I recommend that you have your Lp(a) level checked. If it's high, exercise and diet won't help. It's genetically predetermined and niacin is basically the only treatment, but it doesn't always work.
Nope! Never ever going to take statins!! Nor will anyone in my extended family. I am an RN!
Thanks guys...very informative👍❤
Chris this video is so informative ... your wealth of knowledge is very helpful ... I always look forward to your appearances on the Bob and Brad channel.
I’m so disappointed w/ Bob & Brad here. I’ve heard way to many ppl w/ a ton of problems that go away once they get off of statins. I don’t know what’s what but I listened to a dr explain how horrible they r so I’m ditching them.
worst drugs on the market, stops the production of coq10 which all muscles need to operate, what is the most important muscle??? hello. sorry guys you have just lost me.
There are WAY TO MANY people on statins! I would like to know this guys ties to pharma.
That's the statin that I'm on
What about Atorvistatin and A1C?
horrible side effects. a diet can also lower cholesterol.
Way too much kudos toward physicians. Not one has ordered post drug blood test.
-le sigh- agreeing with most of the posters here. I think you went blue pill here.
Chris the Pharmacist, is really easy to understand and I trust what he says.
I generally like him, too, but think he seems mainstream. I encourage you to do your own research to educate yourself instead of just depending on one source.
Statins are not really good. Do research.
A simple non flush niacin pill will do the trick.
A search of this topic indicates that's not the case:

@@luanneneill2877 Says who? My numbers don't lie. I've been taking this stuff for over 20 years and in fact it was recommended by my own cardiologist, since I would not take statins. LOL!
@@colprincess8579 I already said who.
@@luanneneill2877 Well, those sources must not be reliable.
@@colprincess8579 Did you research any of the links? That link was to a search with many results. I doubt that not one is reliable. They have citations to credible studies.
I'm glad it works for you, but that doesn't mean it works for the majority of people. There're exceptions to pretty much everything. Your result would be considered anecdotal compared to the actual research studies.
You didn't mention which type of non-flushing niacin you take, nicotinamide (or niacinamide) or inositol hexanicotinate, but from what I've read, neither have been proven to work to reduce cholesterol.
Here's a quote from one article with the link to the study cited:
"Inositol hexanicotinate, a chemical cousin of nicotinic acid, is marketed as beneficially raising HDL cholesterol the same as nicotinic acid but without the skin flushing side effect. But critics argue that studies done to support the cholesterol-regulating properties of inositol hexanicotinate are out of date because they were conducted in the early 1960s. They also argue they were not conclusive.
There has been some debate as to whether or not flush-free niacin lowers cholesterol levels. In fact, there have not been enough studies to support or deny this. One study has indicated that up to 2,400 mg of flush-free niacin each day (in divided doses) is needed to lower cholesterol levels, whereas other studies have indicated that flush-free niacin is ineffective in lowering cholesterol.
One interesting study examining different forms of niacin measured the amounts of free nicotinic acid (the main compound in regular niacin) found in the blood after the no flush product was ingested. The study found that after 1.6 grams of inositol hexaniacinate was taken, only 0.6 micromoles/L of nicotinic acid was detected in the blood.
In comparison, taking one gram of the immediate-release nicotinic acid resulted in 240 micromoles/L detected in the blood, while taking two grams of sustained-release nicotinic acid resulted in an average of 31 micromoles/L detected in the blood, both of which are enough to lower cholesterol.
So, with very little nicotinic acid in the blood seen in this study, as well as the lack of evidence seen in other studies, it is doubtful that flush-free niacin is effective in lowering cholesterol."

In all the research I did, the vast majority of info indicated that it doesn't work. Not wanting to get into an argument with you. It's clearly working for you, evidently, in contrast to what the prevailing info indicates.
Out of curiosity, do you monitor your Lp(a) level? That's why I take niacin. It's helped lower mine. It's the only known treatment for elevated levels of it, as it's genetic and doesn't respond to diet or exercise.
Robert Lustig. Sugar the bitter truth.
Don't forget it cost alot of money without f credit.
This video discredits you enormously! Statins are awful. Total scam with terrible side effects.
If you think statins are a scam and do harm more than good give this video a thumbs down.
I already did that last night.
Any one considering statins needs to hear the alternative view, that cholesterol is necessary as every cell in our body and brain is made of it. LDL is essential for transporting energy in the form of triglycerides and the building blocks for repair. That statin research is flawed and that more heart attacks happen to people with low cholesterol than high. Statins cause 1% side effects? 70% of people who start statins stop them because of intolerable side effects. Statin Research projects exclude people with adverse reactions during the pilot study.
It takes 200 people taking statins for 1 person to benefit. When interpreting research statistics you need to understand the difference between relative and absolute risk. Absolute risk is never used to demonstrate the true effect of statins perhaps because it shows how ineffective they are compared to the damage they trigger. Statins and stents research does not contain evidence of preventing cardiovascular events hear attack or stroke. The lipid hypothesis as a cause of arteriosclerosis is still that a hypothesis, not proven. Surely if statins are the answer and people have been taking them since 1986 why haven’t they cured CVD? The obvious reason is because the lipid hypothesis is incorrect and the treatment worse than the disease. Nutrition all the way!
You are so right on. Do your own research instead of listening to this pharmacist drug pusher. Look up the CZcams channels of people like Dr Ken Berry, Dr Berg, Dr Cywes, Dr Boz, and Thomas DeLauer and you will improve your health greatly and guess what eating healthy is FREE. Stick to Bob and Brad for your OT health care but NOT this kind of health.
I am not happy about having to take these.
You don’t. Cholesterol is more about ratios when it comes to actual affects on health. I wrote this as a main comment but will share here as well in case you find something interesting in it:

(But really LDL gets high because more of it is needed to transport lipids to damaged cells)
When cells are becoming damaged from inflammation, they need more of these Repair molecules; more phospholipids, more fat soluble nutrients, therefore LDL goes up. LDL is the CARRIER, taking these things out there. HDL is taking back whatever is left, back to the liver.
When looking at cholesterol, look at RATIOS. Though they call LDL the ‘bad’ cholesterol, they’re actually life-saving, bringing key nutrients out to the cell. Your LDL should be 3 parts or less to every 1 part of HDL. (LDL/HDL). The more damaged your body is, the more LDL Is needed to carry that ‘cargo’ out there. And HDL is bringing back the cargo that’s leftover, whatever’s not needed by the cell, the HDL is brining back. So if your body is really inflamed, you’re gonna use all that HDL and your gonna have lower HDL and higher LDL. Gotta find out what’s Causing the inflammation and damage. Without enough HDL, toxicity is building up and you’re not getting the crap out. This is what’s happening to so many people out there. (Herbs can help, parsley, oregano, basil, sage; all those types of bitrer herbs, cilantro, dandelion, milk thistle, thyme, arugula, mustard greens, they all help bile flow. Bile flow is one way we get ride of toxic cholesterol-because cholesterol, once we’ve used it, goes into the bile, and bile is an emulsifier (helps to emulsify fats so we can digest it properly. it’s also a way we detox. Bitter is good for the liver (like bitter herbs mentioned above). Those herbs help stimulate bile flow, help get rid of that cholesterol that’s been used up which helps get rid of a bunch of toxins and sweep it through our system in our feces. Take in Lots of antioxidants-very protective.
Nothing against B & B or your guest, but you are getting info from a pharmacist...a guy who's job is literally to sell the drug he is analyzing. Almost all the info he is providing, especially the side effects and their frequency, is directly from the pharma literature. Don't use this info as your ONLY basis for deciding to get off/on statins. There's plenty of videos on YT with surprisingly negative statin data. And side effects are waaaayyy more common than we are led to believe by md's and pharma!
36 % 🤣😂😆😅
no thank you..just add Alzheimer's to the list
Let's turn the God that's repent and ask for forgiveness the study God's word and thank God for sending Jesus and all He's done Thank you God! Shepherdschapelcom Theseasonorg explains the whole Bible God bless
Moat people experience Joint Pain from statins because they mentally convinced themselves of those side effects, it was proven during a double blind placebo testing
Why is he pushing the worst drug ever. Shameful
So typical, all they want people to get on drugs. Statin is not good for you. I don’t like this video.
Ok well after this video I’ll be taking everything you guys say with a grain of salt. And unsubscribing
