Former NASA scientist-astronaut, medical doctor and anti-statin medication advocate Dr. Duane Graveline is our guest today for this LLVLC Show Classic from our golden archives in Episode 774 of "The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show."
Today we have
a very special LLVLC Show Classic episode to share with you because
it features a man whose hearing has now sadly deteriorated to the
point that he's now unable to do interviews anymore to tell his
story. Jimmy Moore was privileged to be able to interview him via
e-mail for his bestselling 2013 book Cholesterol
Clarity: What The HDL Is Wrong With My Numbers? to
get his perspective on cholesterol, heart disease and the negative
health implications that come from taking statin drugs. He
is Dr.
Duane Graveline and operates one of the best informational
web sites on the Internet about the dangers of the
cholesterol-lowering statin medications like Lipitor and Crestor
called SpaceDoc.com.
If you've
read Cholesterol Clarity, then you are already
familiar with Dr. Graveline's sad story about what happened to him
when he began taking Lipitor for his "high" cholesterol. Since the
original recording of this interview, his condition has gotten
progressively worse to the point that he'll soon be confined to a
wheelchair because of statin-induced ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease).
Listen in as you'll hear Dr. Graveline share his horrifying story
of dealing with the aftermath of taking Lipitor and inducing an
episode of a condition called global transient amnesia, how statins
can cause major, permanent damage to human mitochondrial DNA,
resulting in loss of strength, joint pain, and memory loss, the
falseness of the cholesterol theory of atherosclerosis, the REAL
reason statins may show benefit in dealing with atherosclerosis,
why CoQ-10 is a MUST for anyone taking a statin, why you cannot buy
a pill with a statin and CoQ-10 together, and a whole lot more! We
count it a real privilege to have had the honor to speak with this
health champion and are pleased to present this special LLVLC Show
Classic episode with you today from deep within our archives.
