I sent him your response. Here is his reply. “The problem with risk reduction. Even if your hopes play out perfectly, you will be on the wrong side of the sod by the time meaningful results come in.

In the TV ad for Crestor the chubby lady happily announces that her cholesterol is down. Note that she makes no claim of any risk reduction or increased longevity. There is no evidence to my knowledge that statins are at all effective in women.

What is "Relative risk"--It is a statistical ratio that is used to deceive and exaggerate the benefits of statins. Statins have only been shown to reduce only slightly the risk of suffering a repeat heart attack in middle aged men who have already had an event.”
