100 people who take a statin for 5 years, only 2 of 100 will avoid a myocardial infarction [heart attack], and 98 of the 100 will not experience any benefit. There will be no mortality benefit for any of the 100 people taking the medicine every day for 5 years.
Good to know that Red Yeast Rice [as capsules] can have the same benefit [the statin were developed from Red Yeast Rice -a thousand years old traditional Chines fermented food-and now and then I am advising them, but one should take only well examined brands
They are not sold [imported] in Israel .
WHY?? One can only guess….

Please share with us good scientific up to date evidence for what you present about statins. Anyone can claim whatever he believes and that is ok. But if you present such a bold statement it is best to back it op with good recent research.

Feel free to use statins and don’t feel attacked but these data have been published again and again. I tseems that you did not read further and likely not the many other scientific articles I sent in the past, This one is based on; the following:
We will share with you an editorial by a renowned cardiologist, though. Rita Redberg, MD, MSc, is professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center. She is Editor-in-Chief of JAMA Internal Medicine. Dr. Redberg and a colleague used a “decision aid” from the Mayo Clinic website to determine risks and benefits of statins.
They offered this perspective on statins for the primary prevention of heart attacks in JAMA Internal Medicine ( January, 2017).
Many people who are taking statins are of course”upset” by articles which show another truth because it woulld be much more pleasant to know that you are taking something which is “only good”….
