2. Cholesterol Lowering Meds like Lipitor, Zocor, Mevacor, Prevachol drive the cholesterol levels dangerously low. National Cancer Institute backed a big study of 12,488 men and women. They found that men with the lowest cholesterol levels were most likely to get cancer.(Canadian Medical Association Journal August 26, 2008 showed similar finding.)


3. In the Framingham Study those men whose total cholesterol levels were below 190 mg/dl were more than three times as likely to get colon cancer as those men with cholesterol greater than 220; they were almost twice as likely to contract any kind of cancer than those with cholesterol over 280 mg/dl.
