Interesting to note that there’s a REMARKABLE IMPROVEMENT in patients going to FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE practitioners and other professionals like Nutritional Therapists, who look at this problem differently. We look at the SOURCE of the high LDL numbers and include everything else like diet that includes the worst possible OILS & FATS that the American Heart Associations suggests! Diet is the MAIN CAUSE unless you have a patient with hereditary Hyperlipidemia. I could go on and on but until this country’s Dietary and nutritional needs are properly addressed, mainstream, medical/pharmaceutical drugs are going to continue to line the pockets of Pharma instead of addressing the ROOT CAUSE!
