High blood cholesterol is known to contribute to atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries, which in turn increases your risk of heart attack and stroke. Now, researchers from the Saint Louis School of Medicine have found out how it does this.
Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in the United States, and high cholesterol has been singled out as the primary cause, at least according to conventional medicine.
The researchers in the above study have made an interesting connection between cholesterol and a protective protein in your body, but this is merely another ruse to use “science” to justify yet another unnecessary, expensive, and dangerous drug to solve a non-problem.
The researchers found, using an animal model, that cholesterol limits the activity of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), a key protective protein that protects your heart’s aorta and other vessels from damage caused by hypertension, high cholesterol, and other factors.
