Statins & Cholesterol Deep Dive: Series Introduction

You've been told your cholesterol is too high. You've been handed a statin prescription. But has anyone explained WHY your cholesterol went up? What it's actually doing in your body? Whether statins truly prevent heart attacks in people like you? In this series introduction, Dr. Karen Chase explains why she created the Statins & Cholesterol Deep Dive - an 8-part series that explores what conventional medicine often doesn't explain. You'll learn what cholesterol actually does, why sugar and insulin resistance drive dysfunction, how menopause affects your numbers, what the statin studies really show, and what supports heart health long-term. This isn't about fear or rebellion. It's about informed decisions based on understanding your biology.
