Are statins good tobtake

Statins can have benefits beyond cholesterol management, as discussed by Andrew Huberman and guest Gary Steinberg in a recent episode of the Huberman Lab. Some evidence suggests that statins may be vasculoprotective, potentially reducing the risk of cognitive decline, including conditions like Alzheimer's, even in individuals without high cholesterol levels 1.

However, there's also some controversy surrounding their use. Some people report side effects such as brain fog when taking certain statins or at excessive doses 1. It's important to approach statin use thoughtfully and consult with a healthcare provider, especially regarding risks and individual health conditions.
