So, feel like risking cancer or Lou Gehrig's disease or diabetes to make that number look better?

When half the people who have heart attacks have high cholesterol... and half have low cholesterol? But high triglycerides; that's the marker for heart attack. And yours is lower on low carb!

I certainly would not. But then, I'm a woman, and there's absolutely no studies showing any benefit for women on statins under any circumstance. Yet they would push them on me, anyway.

Don't. The risks are great, and the benefits unclear.
