Modern pharma and our modern medical system hasn’t cured anything, ever. Like every other business model, they are trying to turn us into subscription buyers.

Hey folks -- found the intern / nurse / doctor / pharm rep who is vaxxed and triple boosted. And who is still fooled by "The $cience," Big Pharm, muh-Radiology Reports, $urgeons, and the Ho$pitals that can't wait to remove body part$ and were injecting anything that moved while taking the $36k for each reported "Covid Death".
Nearly everything "healthy" we've been told by these frauds is inverted. 2020-2021 proved who and what they are.
Maybe you should look into "Rockefeller Medicine" and its agenda, and wake up to reality before Booster #4.

Does it wipe out all the cholesterol in the brain leading to stupidity?
I was on some cholesterol med that made me go full Mitch McConnell while talking. Or I’m just retarded which is highly possible. I got off that and started taking fish oil.

This is great advice regardless but for some people its about DNA not diet.. For some their body just produces too much Cholesterol...

And I was specifically talking about this new drug and cholesterol levels. Then you start talking about diabetics so I asked what drug you’re referring to.
There are applications in which drugs make perfect sense. You and I both know that’s not what I’m talking about, you just can’t be honest.

Well I've just read a ton of uninformed responses. This drug is strictly targeted at reducing lipoprotein (a) not LDL. Having high lipoprotein (a) is INHERITED. You either did not inherit this and your lp(a) is under 10 or so, or you did inherit one of the causative genes and you will be somewhere around 75nmol up to the several hundreds. It has absolutely nothing to do with lifestyle or what you eat [although those factors DO affect LDL and APOB levels]. There are multiple studies out there that show lifestyle and diet do not affect lp(a).
As an interesting note, Bob Harper, the former host of Biggest Loser [and extremely fit], had a near fatal attack despite good lipid levels, and when they dug deeper they discovered his extremely high lp(a) levels.
I have it myself and am 5'11" and 135 and exercise and eat very low carb, high protein, veggies, nuts, blueberries etc... and my lp(a) will not budge at all. It does go up and down about 50 nmol but never goes below 100 nmol. One of my kids inherited it and hers is close to 200 and one of my kids and my husband are both under 10.
Having elevated lp(a) is very highly correlated with cardiovascular disease and poor cardiac outcomes, and this is actually a miracle drug for many people. The whole point of the studies being conducted [and there are several drugs in this area being developed currently] is to see if there are harmful side effects and to see if the drug improves outcomes and not just the lp(a) level.

Agree, I'm excited about this. Hopefully, the trials work out.

Nope…I’m an unvaxxed HVAC guy that’s unafraid of doctors. Nice try though moron. Your posts tells me everything I need to know about you. Stand up straight on that soapbox baw! Shout it to the sky! Next you’ll be complaining about your insurance not covering you for your new found medical condition that could have been prevented with regular doctor visits. I know guys like you. I had a friend die young from colon cancer. Totally preventable BUT THEM DAMN DOCTOR$ as you say. Wouldn’t go to the doctor because, well, you know…doctors is bad man. Keep screaming baw…keep screaming it!

In your previous post, you inferred that lifestyle changes would be enough...
In general, for any significant condition, lifestyle changes arent enough.
I cited diabetes as an example, as one that medications helped.
In this particular drug, as has been said here, again, lifestyle changes aren't enough.
Not many pharmaceutical companies are going to spend a lot of research dollars on any condition that could be cured by behavior change.
I'm engaging with you as a courtesy, but your opinion is completely incorrect.
It honestly has no bearing on reality.

There is a correlation between taking statins and Alzheimer’s disease.
The brain needs cholesterol. This drug isn’t a good idea.

I have high lipoprotein a. It’s almost completely genetic in nature there is no amount of diet or exercise that can help it. All my other lipids are great. They’ve tested me when I was still in my 20s because of family being positive.
They’ve had me do a few calcium studies all of which are 0 at 44. Kinda been watching these drugs for awhile now. They apparently have an oral coming out in a couple of years that isn’t mRNA

It’s not aimed at regular LDLs. It’s strictly lipoprotein a. It’s an inflammatory cholesterol that you definitely don’t want excess of.

Very uniformed response. I’ve done multiple half Ironmans. Ran and lifted heavy my entire life, always maintained a good weight and eat well. My lp a is still 2.5x the top end and has been since I was very young. It’s almost like genetic actually means genetic.

LOL…there’s a correlation between high cholesterol and Alzheimer’s for sure.
Statins are drugs that are used to reduce the levels of cholesterol in the blood. Many people also take statins to reduce their risk of heart attacks and strokes. There have been many studies that have looked to see if this appears to alter the risk of dementia compared to people with untreated high cholesterol. Analysis combining 36 studies showed that statins reduced the risk of developing dementia by about 20%.
Looking at specific diseases, statins reduced the risk of Alzheimer’s disease by about 30% and reduced the risk of vascular dementia by about 7%.
Statins lower cholesterol not eliminate it.

Why is that an issue for you?
