I'm 44 and part of a family that's full of diabetes. I might have become diabetic without a LC diet; before LC, I was gaining weight and workouts left me exhausted. <br /><br />Even according to the Mayo Clinic's website, too-low cholesterol levels can lead to depression, anxiety and cancer.

If I remember properly he was for putting statines in a water supply.<br /> <br />My periodontist developed a leg weakness first, stop taking the prescribed statine drag, and only inapproximately one year he started to notice tremor of his hands, and biopsy confirmed he suffered a statine damage of his upper extremities as well , and nothing could be done but to retire and apply for a disability at his 50-s. It complitely freaked me out, it sounded like a time bomb, what if some time would pass and more damage would surface?

It looks statines have a significant potential to diminish exactly that - the quality of life - muscle pain, memory problems, depression. My periodontist is at the process of going through an early retirement and disability in his 50-s because he took statines for about one year, and due to a muscle damage can't perform surgeries any longer.
