[QUOTE="douglas99, post: 437684, member: 38028"] Maybe true as written by him. However, the original article was [url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24103674]http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24103674[/url] "Prior statin treatment and high admission cholesterol have been associated with favorable outcome after ischemic stroke (IS), a paradox not completely explained. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of admission cholesterol levels and the impact of statin treatment on short- and long-term survival after IS." So, heavy use of statins to get the cholesterol down and you appear to recover and live longer. Low cholesterol and less chance of being on statins. This ties in well with a previous report on statins helping stroke recovery. [url=http://stroke.ahajournals.org/content/43/1/147.full.pdf]http://stroke.ahajournals.org/content/43/1/147.full.pdf[/url] Neither suggest increasing cholesterol to promote a healthier lifestyle. Bit naughty of him not to mention that really. [/QUOTE]
