Dr OZ - A word and warning on statin drugs!

Famed TV doctor, Dr Mehmet Oz, has spoken out about the mis-use and over-prescription of statin drugs to control high cholesterol. He fears that "many people who would otherwise be able to manage their cardiovascular risk through nonpharmaceutical means will be pressured to take a medication which may not benefit them and could have harmful side effects."  He goes on to warn that "their benefits [statins] may not be as great as many proclaim, and that their downsides have often been de-emphasised." He lists the side effects of statins as:  muscle pain, muscle damage, an increased risk of diabetes (particularly in women), digestive problems such as nausea, diarrhea and constipation, memory loss or confusion (though this is being hotly debated) and, rarely, serious liver damage.  Dr Oz believes that many people can improve their cholesterol and their overall heart attack risk without resorting to statins. A Mediterranean diet, smoking cessation and exercise have been shown to lower the risk of (and sometimes even resolve) heart disease and diabetes.
