Review of Article from Men's Health by By Paul Scott
This is a long and windy read BUT if you have high cholesterol OR take lipid lowering medications, otherwise known as STATINS, you SHOULD make time to look over this one!
I have been beating this band-wagon drum for years...taking what doctors, specialists and institutions tell us as "God's word" and not investigating our symptoms and their real causes further ourselves, may not truly serve us.
I myself have been at the helm of well-meaning practitioners who have condemned me with some condition/disease/affliction, only for me to look or ask further and find out that in fact, although a great professional opinion, the same picture could in fact be interpreted in much a different way. A way that meant I was not victim to some horrid state.
It is really important that we always go back to basics with things and see how they sit with our own common-sense and "gut-feeling". Regardless of what any specialist can tell you about you, YOU know YOU best!
Yes, take their advice on board, take their information, but then allow this to sit in your own psyche. Investigate further, get second opinions, and find out the CAUSE of the problem and what OTHER OPTIONS you may have for resolution.
Just as smashing out the light on your car's dashboard that signals there is wrong with the engine WONT fix the problem, taking medications is sometimes akin to simply silencing the signal telling you that something is amiss.
We are the captain's of our own ship. It is important we feel what is happening on deck and below board is all for the greater good of the entire journey.
Never go against your own feelings and always trust yourself to look further, if you so have the inclination.
I do. I encourage my clients to, too. :)
