Statins are being prescribed even when levels are well within normal range.

Statins cause damage to nerve cells......but doctors still continue to push these drugs. Big Pharma has used scare tactics to convince folks that statins are life savers. For them, maybe ($$).......but not for those who take them.

But, it's a win-win for Big Pharma because when you get PN from statin use (which is practically guaranteed) they have a pill for that, too!
