Well, I think it starts first of all with suspicion and knowledge. You know, I'm a preventive cardiologist, and so I focus highly on risk and long-term risk. And so, in order to, you know, to have an indication to be on a statin, you have to understand that in the context of someone's risk. So, you know, people who have heart disease already, people who have diabetes, people whose LDL cholesterol is very high, it's called severe hyperlipidemia, so that would be an LDL cholesterol greater than equal to 190. And then people with premature history of coronary disease, such as familial hypercholesterolemia, those people should really be on a statin. And so, those people who don't, you know, if patients do not meet those criteria, then it's all about what your long-term risk of developing a heart attack or stroke would be. And then that helps us guide whether or not you should be on a statin. So, in general, you know, people who are younger, who don't have any risk factors for heart disease can usually get away with lifestyle changes, diet and exercise. But as you age or develop any risk factors like high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, inflammatory diseases, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, all those things can enhance your risk for getting heart disease and would be an indication to go on a statin. Now, you mentioned, you know, diet and exercise. So, you know, to a moderate degree, changing your eating habits and getting some exercise can lower your bad cholesterol, specifically decreasing saturated fat in your diet, decreasing dietary cholesterol and increasing soluble fiber and plant sterols in your diet can lower your LDL cholesterol. On the other hand, exercise and weight loss can improve your triglycerides and raise your HDL cholesterol, that good cholesterol. But, you know, in general, the effects are relatively modest, usually about a 10 to 20 percent change, whereas statins can decrease your LDL cholesterol by over 50 percent in many cases.
One clinical study found that people who took daily CoQ10 supplements within 3 days of a heart attack were less likely to have subsequent heart attacks and chest pain. They were also less likely to die of heart disease than those who did not take the supplements. Anyone who has had a heart attack should talk with their health care provider before taking any herbs or supplements, including CoQ10.
