    Studies show that taking Statin drugs causes Alzheimer's disease by removing cholesterol from the brain. The brain is 25% cholesterol. I told my father to stop taking them and he did so immediately. He hadn't had any problems since.

    "Cholesterol is vitally important for brain function. While your brain represents about 2-3% of your total body weight, 25% of the cholesterol in your body is found in your brain, where it plays important roles in such things as membrane function, acts as an antioxidant, and serves as the raw material from which we are able to make things like progesterone, estrogen, cortisol, testosterone and even vitamin D.

    In fact, in a recent study available on the NIH Public Access site, researchers showed that in the elderly, the best memory function was observed in those with the highest levels of cholesterol. Low cholesterol is associated with an increased risk for depression and even death."

    The brain containing 25 percent of the cholesterol in the body does NOT mean that the brain is 25 percent cholesterol.

    A 150 pound person has about 35 grams of cholesterol in their body and therefore about 9 grams of it in their brain. The brain weighs about 1500 grams which means that less than one percent of the brain is cholesterol.
