And there is data on statins and Parkinson's.

My father died of similar.

There are multiple studies that do show an increased risk of Parkinson's in statin users.

There's other studies that would maybe claim that there's no association, but I can only tell you that it's not the only factor.

It's just when you stack up so much of the bad stuff.

And not enough of the good stuff, you wind up with Parkinson's.

But there is a reason for it.

We're not genetically programmed to get Parkinson's.

There's no Parkinson's gene.

It is all environmental.

And therefore, it's all preventable to the best of our ability in a totally polluted, toxic world.

It's all the doctors know how to do.

Well, when you think that you're a hammer and everything's a nail, that's all you can do.

People go to the medical doctors and the medical doctor perceives them as wanting something done.

So they do it.

But this whole mantra right now, which is from the American Heart Association, is lower for longer.

Let's just give statin drugs as early as possible.

And then we'll get the benefits in the long term.

But I would say this, it's not about how do we reduce your heart attack risk from 2% to 1.84% annually.

And that's the data based on the Journal of the American Medical Association 2022 meta-analysis, like a fraction of a point reduction.
