Justin, I have read your blog with interest and I have questions on your research 1.You wrote The reporting of relative percentages is a very common trick used by drug companies to exaggerate any slight benefits associated with their products. In reality, 2.8 percent of people in the placebo group suffered cardiovascular events compared with 1.6 percent in the statin group. So the risk for cardiovascular events was reduced by 1.2 percent, and not 44 percent! I am no mathmetician, but as I see it and to use simple figures lets say group A (placebo) is 280 cases and b. is 160 cases. They are two totally different groups and if the reduction in CV events was 1.2 % then the total cases in group b. would be 276.64 would it not. Apologies if I have got this wrong. 2. You also state further in that raised cholesterol can be affected by several other factors (position, stress, smoking etc.) then instantly recommend visiting an holistic or Naturopath practitioner, which is what you are, isn't it. I may be wrong on the statistics but you seem to me to pick holes in established science whilst offering no facts to back up the treatments you offer. Sure your treatments may, after research, prove to be harmless but they won't be without effect on peoples wallets and good nature.
