The body has the superpower to produce everything it needs when it needs it. When we intervene with its natural course, things start to become problematic. In this episode, Dr. Jockers explains how Statin drugs can cause an imbalance in the production of cholesterol in the body. Cholesterol is one of the most important enzymes produced by the liver to build healthy cells. When there is an imbalance between the bad and good cholesterols, chronic inflammation occurs leading to serious health conditions.

\u201cStatins work by blocking the production of all forms of cholesterol in your liver, even those that your liver needs.\u201d
