Cholesterol Drugs Flop in Major Trial

The New York Times published a story about the total failure of three leading cholesterol drugs that went mostly unnoticed. A clinical trial of Zetia, prescribed to millions of people a week, failed to show the drug had any medical benefits.

Dr. Steven Nissen, the chairman of cardiology at the famed Cleveland Clinic, said it best, “The results are shocking. Patients should not be given prescriptions for Zetia…This is as bad a result for a drug as anybody could have feared.”

I’ve been shouting from the rooftops for years about the dangers of cholesterol drugs.  Natural alternatives exist that get to the root of the problem, rather than just masking the symptoms.

Zetia Clinical Trial Shows the Drug Delivers No Benefits

A two year clinical trial of Zetia has shown that the drug has no medical benefits, adding to the growing concern over Zetia and Vytorin, a combination of Zetia and Zocor.

While Zetia did lower cholesterol by about 15%, no trial has ever shown that it can reduce heart attacks and strokes – or even that it reduces the growth of dangerous fatty plaque in arteries which causes serious heart problems. The trial was originally designed to show that Zetia could reduce plaque growth. Instead, the plaque actually grew twice as fast in patients taking Zetia with Zocor!

To make matters worse, the drug companies have “sat” on the results for two years. Which raises serious questions about both the drug’s effectiveness and also about the behavior of the pharmaceutical companies that conducted the study.

Merck and Schering stalled for two years, repeatedly missing strict deadlines for reporting the results.  Leading cardiologists around the world were left to wonder what was going on and what the study would show. At the same time, millions of patients continued taking Zetia and Vytorin and their conditions worsened while the drug companies blithely fiddled their thumbs.

Making billions of dollars at the expense of these patients. Lawsuits will obviously be filed. But what good is that to a person who trusted their doctor and the flashy television commercials and suffered a heart attack or strokes.

Mother Nature’s Solution to High Cholesterol

I’ve eliminated high cholesterol for so many people. The program I recommend is the same plant-strong diet that former President Clinton adopted in 2010 and is now in the best health of his life. (If you missed the story, read The Veggie Butcher & President Clinton.)

The program is a plant-strong diet with daily exercise and the elimination of high saturated fat foods that your body cannot process – that means no more milk, cheese, ice cream and butter, or animal protein like red meat, pork and chicken. Substitute nut milks instead, such as cashew, almond, coconut or hemp milks. Switch to Earth Balance Natural Spreads instead of butter.

How Carl Bypassed a Bypass

We have had so many customers share their story about lowering cholesterol. Visit the Testimonials category on our website to read them all.

One of my all-time favorites is the story of Carl Crawford, who previously had triple bypass surgery, yet his cholesterol level was over 600 and his triglycerides were over 1,200! His wife Annette, fearing he wouldn’t survive another open heart surgery, asked if I could help.

Carl Crawford - Saved from Triple Bypass SurgeryTo make a long story short, we brought Carl’s cholesterol down to 154 and his triglycerides down to 235. His blood pressure dropped from 145 to 105.

The Formulas Carl used are the ones I recommend to everyone with high blood pressure, cholesterol and clogged arteries:

  • Nattokinase Clogged Artery Clearer – From Japan, this is why the Japanese have such low heart disease rates. Works like a Roto-Rooter to clear the arteries.
  • Cholesteine Formula – Fights both dangerous cholesterol and equally dangerous Homocysteine. Brings down counts in no time. See Carl’s results above.
  • Life Transfusion Liquid Mineral Complex – High in essential Magnesium, the “heartbeat” mineral. The high Magnesium also helps dissolve the Calcium in the arteries.
  • Clean Heart – Naturally lowers blood pressure, helping the heart beat easier, smoother, more relaxed. This is a new formula that tastes like grape Kool-Aid.

  • Eat foods are fresh and vegetarian – salads and lightly steamed vegetables with virgin Olive oil and lemon dressing.
  • No more red meats or dairy. That means no milk, cheese, butter or ice cream
  • Eliminate heavily processed foods containing white flour/sugar, pizzas, fast food and fried foods like chicken
  • Make Miracle Potassium Broth – have a bowl every day with lots of broccoli and cabbage and garlic. And Barlean’s Flax Seed Oil or Bragg’s Liquid Aminos into each bowl for added flavoring.

  1. I have to go to see my doctor next Thursday. My cholesterol is high at 280. I do not want to take these statins drugs. I am now trying a very strict diet. I am not overweight at all. I read some testimonials on line. Can you please comment back to me.

    Dear Ahava,

    we have a total program for control of Cholesterol. It is all in my book referenced here that is free to download. “How To Kill Cholesterol Before Cholesterol Kills You.”

    The biggest thing you can do apart from refusing any dangerous statin cholesterol drugs, is to get off all animal protein. These are high in saturated fats that are very dangerous, that is why the body goes into overdrive to get them out of the body by making more and more cholesterol.

    Get off all red meat, pork, delicatessen meats, sausages, chicken, turkey.

    Switch to TOFU and TEMPEH and look for the wonderful meat alternatives made by the “TOFURKY” company, their sausages and meats are all natural and vegetarian.

    Get off all dairy. NO MORE MILK, CHEESE, (worst of all) ICE CREAM AND BUTTER.

    Again, this is animal protein and saturated in fat that causes cholesterol spikes.

    Get almond milk (‘ALMOND BREEZE” brand is best). Or Hemp Milk or organic soy milk.

    Get ‘EARTH BALANCE” spread instead of butter, this is a natural butter alternative and found in all supermarkets now.

    Make sure you get our liver rejuvenation formula called LIV-RX. All cholesterol is manufactured in the liver so a cleaner liver means lower cholesterol.

    We are waiting for our next shipment of our remarkably successful CHOLESTEINE formula to come back into the warehouse. Demand is so high we are temporarily out. However, get some inexpensive “NIACIN” from the drugstore and take 500mgs a day, in divided doses to avoid a Niacin-flush, this will also help control your cholesterol until our formula comes back into stock. Must be Niacin, not Niacinamide.

    Along with the DIET recommendations above, make sure you get daily exercise into your schedule. Walking for 45 minutes briskly each morning works wonders on cholesterol, and it helps the heart too and brings down high blood pressure.

    Please let me know if I can be of any further help.

    Kind regards.

    WG
