A significant new discovery about the importance of cholesterol to nerve and muscle health has just been made. The researchers discovered that cholesterol is vital to the structure of key proteins involved with nerve transmission. The finding is groundbreaking, its implications in the context of widespread high doses of statin drugs in the general population is alarming.

We have known for a very long time that small fragments of cholesterol (not HDL or LDL, which are large transport vehicles) are required for every cell in your body to have a three dimensional structure. Scientists estimate that you have around 6-8 ounces of this structural cholesterol in your cells, and without it you would be flat as a pancake on the floor. http://www.wellnessresources.com:80/health/articles/the_vital_role_of_cholesterol_in_health/?source=Email & camp=news100908
