Statin Drugs Lower Co Q 10 levels. CoQ10 is critical for mitochondria function so that we can produce energy and all of the other positive things that happen in the electron transport chain that we learned about in high school biology called the Kreb’s Cycle.
Statin drugs inhibit the production of heme A a structural component of cytochrome C oxidase. COX Complex IV. This is a vital component of the electron transfer chain in our mitochondria.
Stain Drugs lower Dolichol production which are glycoproteins that are necessary for tissue growth. It is a significant in the Substania Nigra nucleus in our brain that when damaged causes Parkinson’s Disease.
Stain Drugs lower cholesterol levels which is critical to produce vitamin D, all of our hormones. Every cell needs cholesterol. There are approximately 10,000 receptor sites on a cell for vitamin D. That would make it important to have some vitamin D.
Stain Drugs cause liver damage.
Stain Drugs cause muscle damage. As a chiropractor I always joke that I shouldn’t bad mouth statin drugs since they bring me so many patients.
Stain Drugs cause brain damage.
