For DECADES, we’ve been told by "authorities in health" that cholesterol is a villain lurking in our arteries, waiting to cause heart attacks.
Statins – drugs that slash cholesterol production – have become one of the most prescribed medications on the planet.
But what if this narrative is not only incomplete but dangerously misleading?
What if cholesterol is one of the most essential substances your body produces, and “high” levels frequently signal that your body is working hard to repair damage and restore balance?
In this thread, we’ll find out the truth about cholesterol’s vital roles in simple, everyday language. We’ll look at how LDL, HDL, and VLDL function as sophisticated transport systems. We’ll dive deep into why your body makes most of its own cholesterol, and why aggressively lowering it with drugs may interfere with healing. This is for anyone who wants to understand their labs, support their health naturally, or question the one-size-fits-all “lower is better” approach.
