Cholesterol - Did You Know?

 

 According to the British Medical Journal (June 3, 2006; pp. 1330-1332), "Cholesterol is vital for the development and function of the brain.  It is therefore unsurprising that reduced concentrations may produce mental and neurological complaints such as severe irratability, aggressive behaviour, suicidal impulses, cognitive impairment, memory loss, global amnesia, polyneuropathy, and erectile dysfunction."

"None of these side effects are mentioned on the product labels or information inserts for statins."
