Dr. Kevin Reese’s statement linking statin drugs to dementia is a wake-up call. Statins, which lower cholesterol, have been in widespread use since the 1980s. However, a concerning rise in Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia since the 1990s suggests a potential link.

The issue lies in the fact that cholesterol is vital for brain function. Lowering cholesterol too much could impair cognitive function, leading to issues like memory loss and confusion. This is why it's important for patients to be fully informed about the potential risks associated with statin use.

If you’re on statins, consider talking to your healthcare provider about the potential risks and the role of cholesterol in brain health. Knowledge is power when it comes to protecting your brain. 💊🧠

here's why belly fat isn’t just about eating too much — it’s way deeper than that. Most people blame their appetite, their cravings, or their lack of discipline… but the truth is, your hormones control far more than your plate does.

When your cortisol is high (stress), when your insulin spikes (sugary foods), when your thyroid slows down, or when your sleep is inconsistent — your body starts storing fat in the belly area automatically, even if you’re not overeating.
That’s why some people eat less but still gain weight, while others eat more but stay lean. It’s not always about calories — it’s about balance inside your body.

Understanding your hormones means understanding your weight. Fix the root cause, not just the symptoms. When you manage stress, sleep better, balance blood sugar, and support your metabolism, your body naturally shifts out of “fat-storage mode” and into “fat-burning mode.”

Your belly is telling a story — and it’s time to listen.

VIÐ BERUM SJÁLF ÁBYRGÐ Á EIGIN HEILSU

Heilsufar þjóðarinnar er mjög bágborið, bæði barna og fullorðinna. Þyngd segir hins vegar ekki allt um heilsufar viðkomandi og eigum við ekki að einblína á þyngd og vaxtarlag. Við erum misjöfn og getum verið heilsuhraust alveg óháð stærð og lögun. Verum sátt í eigin líkama og elskum okkur sjálf. Alltaf er hægt að bæta heilsuna, við sem eldri erum eigum að taka alvarlega það hlutverk okkar að vera fyrirmyndir barna og unglinga, byrjum snemma að innleiða heilsusamlega næringu hjá börnum, það mun borga sig margfalt!!
