The development of statins by Japanese scientists was stopped because it was causing cancer in test dogs - they got around this with another statin by ensuring they used a lower dose. -Does this make them safe? -Why did Merck fail to find cancers for the very same drug?

First it was Total Cholesterol, then LDL, then ApoB, then ApoA, then remnant cholesterol. The greed of pharma shills knows no bounds. If you can measure it you can lower it. The problem is, it's NOT THE LIPOPROTEINS, Insulin Resistance & Inflammation drive heart disease.
