My late husband was prescribed statins to help lower his cholesterol. He suffered skeletol and muscular pain all down his legs and elsewhere. He felt miserable with it and after I passed him an article I received from the US on statin he came of this drug immediately and the discomfort went. In order to get his cholesterol down I advised him to take 3 caps of Magnesium 250mg which helped. Magnesium is the cheapest and by doctors most ignored mineral. You should take it acc. to your height and weight in a ratio of 1:2 with calcium. It is also supposed to interrupt the transport of calcium to the brain i.e. stopping you from clogging up brain cells, lol. Ingridl

You should also take Omega-3 (Fish Oil) capsules. My cardiologist and health sites I read recommend this as one of the first lines of defense. I also follow the Linus Pauling regimen for cholesterol.
