Do you fancy a jab that can lower your LDL cholesterol?
Trials are underway involving 23.000 patients who cannot take statins.

Wow things are progressing at a fast pace. This would immensely helpful for those who suffer from FH and those that can't tolerate statins.

No, if my cholesterol is the level it is, that's because it needs to be that way. I'm not messing with it again.
