Book Reviews of Lipitor Thief of Memory
Book Review: MEDICAL DOCTOR SLAMS MOST POPULAR MEDICINES!
Summary: 4 Stars
About a month ago my only vague conception of what cholesterol was involved me thinking of a toxic chemical from meat, cheese, eggs and whatever. I thought it should be as low as you can possibly get it. My son told me I was totally backwards on this. He said I could email NinetyPlus4Life@Aol.com and ask for a free subscription to these periodic articles called the 90+ newsletters because currently it's on cholesterol and cholesterol drugs. I'd considered taking one of these statin drugs at one point like Lipitor. Concerned that maybe I was missing something, I wrote to the author-JD, at that email address and asked to join his free list. Then I get this report on cholesterol from him that must be 30 pages long. I couldn't believe it. I DIDN'T believe some of it but here he is mentioning Dr. Graveline-an American Astronaut AND Medical Doctor who wrote a book on why these drugs are horrible and cholesterol isn't your enemy. In addition to that, the report had something like twenty other medical doctors that think these drugs are rarely needed if ever and extremely dangerous and why. It's NOT JUST DUANE GRAVELINE. He's not one man who happened to have a bad reaction to a normally benign pill. Apparently there are hundreds if not thousands of doctors of all kinds around the world in disagreement with the theory that cholesterol should be lower and lower and God knows how many patients who were mentally broken down from the whole class of drugs designed to lower it. Now that I've had the chance to read some of the material referenced in the 90+ report and check up on the doctors quoted and get some of their books, I'm a complete convert and nobody's ever putting ME on those drugs. I know that Cholesterol is a nutrient now- not poison- and that it can get too low and thanks to Dr. Graveline uniquely legitimizing certain concerns with his own personal and not-so-uncommon experience, I'm quite sure statins can damage your brain too. It's no wonder, not only does it cut down on the cholesterol but look at everything else it cuts down on for Pete's sake! No thanks Doc. I read mom some of this stuff over the phone and she might end up talking it over with her own doctor. I'd like to know what he'd say...I'd like to see what ANYBODY'S doctor has to say about these opposing views or if they have any clue that they exist with a ton of evidence to back them up. Doctor Graveline is a really respected and accomplished man and because of this drug at one point, he was in such a state that he couldn't recognize his own wife! Does his own doctor even believe it at first? Noooo way, a while after he quits he is strongly urged and persuaded to go back because how could a healthy drug hurt you, right? Well, check out Dr. Graveline's book and read about his recurring nightmare after he went back for round two. Get this book. Get a subscription to that newsletter like I did too while you're at it. LEARN about this stuff. Don't let yourself and your loved ones be fooled by some ignorant crap theory that puts millions of people each year on poison for no good reason!
Summary of Lipitor Thief of Memory
When Dr. Duane Graveline, former astronaut, aerospace medical research scientist, flight surgeon, and family doctor is given Lipitor to lower his cholesterol, he temporarily loses his short-term memory. Urged a year later to resume the drug at half dose, he lost both short-term and retrograde memory and was finally diagnosed in a hospital ER as having transient global amnesia (TGA). This is the "scary, appealingly written" account of his search for answers that his medical community didn't have -- the how and why of his traumatic experience, and what needs to be done to prevent the devastating side effects to body and mind from the escalating use of the statin drugs.Health, Mind & Body Books
