Ep:385 REPLACE STATINS WITH THIS FDA-APPROVED PLAQUE STABILIZER

FDA has approved risky and harmful products so claiming something "FDA approved" does not deliver much confidence. Appreciate the statin alternative information.

Good info I am 66 years old. CAC score ZERO. Been strict carnivore for 5-years. Take no prescription drugs. Life is great! 🤓

Ironically....at my last visit with my cardiologist......when I refused Statins....again he offered to have me start colchicine. I told him I would research it and let him know. I was leaning towards starting it based on my research...now I'll call him and start it

Thank you Dr Cywes for bringing this potentially huge change in CAD treatment more into the public eye. To those who take the time to research the thorough study by respected research medicine, of Colchicine for CAD, it is obviously a major development.........and we had it all along.🙂

1500 Years Before Cholesterol

Thanks, Doc! My cardiologist actually suggested Colchicine yesterday after I told him inflammation is my issue, not my LDL cholesterol. I had never heard of colchicine before and then today this video popped up! That’s what I call timely. With a CAC score of 0 and a reduction of small particle LDL from 2400 to 1400 after doing carnivore for a year, I told him I’d rather stay off the meds and he agreed. I expect my labs in Jan 2025 will show improvement without meds, but now I know there are options other than statins.

Before carnivore i used to take this, and also another prescription medication, for Gout. I am now more than 2 years carnivore, no more Gout, no more medication.

Thank you for this information including the paper it’s based on. I will be sure my cardiologist gets this as I’ve been reamed out for refusing statins

Outstanding presentation, off for a CAC test

Hello Doctor: because I experienced a tia and found out by accident that required a cat scan w+w/o contrast, atherosclerosis and another a word were discovered. As a result and my determination to correct myself, I found out about keto and carnivore lifestyles. Not smoking, no sugar in my diet and I am learning and practicing via trial and error to get my body into ketosis. I recently discovered your channel.

GREAT INFO I I M RECOVERING FROM A STROKE 3 MONTHS AGO IN FULL RECOVERY NOW ILL LET MY DR KNOW TOMORROW LETS SEE WHAT HE THINKS

THANK YOU FOR THIS VALUABLE INFO🙏🏻

Such a great piece of information. Thank you

Thanks for the information most helpful.

Thank you for the enlightenment. Job well- done. 👍🙏💖

If the risk-lowering benefits of colchicine as quoted by Dr. Cywes (from the study) are 31% and 23%, we would want to know whether those are "relative" risk values or "absolute" risk values. Many of us are familiar with the way statins were promoted because they lowered your risk of an event by 36%. But that was a calculated "relative" risk number. The actual "absolute" risk reduction was about 1% or 2%, as Dr. David Diamond has eloquently illustrated in his YouTube videos.

FYI My “closed Captions” quotes you as saying “Culture Scene” 😾 I googled “Drug Culture Scene” to find Colchicine! TYVM! Ive refused Statins so now will ASK my PC about Colchichine Next Ck Up - when I will ask for CAC As well - 76 yr old carnivore(😏mostly)

I know about colchicine, I get the gout but I didn’t know about using colchicine for inflammation.

Brilliant so glad I watch your episodes

It’s cheap now but while it was under patent(due to some a holes doing a dosage study) they jacked the price up from about 10$ per 30 tabs to about 60$ per 20. I was buying it from Canada for 60$ for 100. Super rip off. Now it’s back down to about 20$ for 30
