Here is a new article from the UK about statins ...and the risks of Parkinson's disease.

http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/...-nerve-disease

BTW UK allows OTC statin Zocor for sale there! Zocor is the most lipophilic (soluble in fat) and hence gets into nerves and the brain more easily than other statins. The FDA here has already sent out warning letters regarding high dose Zocor therapies.

Statins' days are numbered and soon they will be history, IMO.
