Penn mentioned that statin's can or do attack liver function so I would be curious to know if statin use might coincide with the huge influx of NASH aka None Alcoholic Fatty Liver disease. And if you have liver disease your chances of Type II diabetes and heart disease increase. Heart disease and Type II diabetes is a huge problem in the US.

I have not read any articles relating Atorvastatin to NASH aka None Alcoholic Fatty Liver disease
The bottom line is Atorvastatin which lower LDL impacts the production of Myelin, the chemical which protects the brain from dementia. But, more importantly, there are no studies the definitively state that high ch causes heart disease.
In my mind, if there is uncertainty in the benefit/results of a drug to remedy a known condition, and that remedy is prescribe on a hypothetical: that high ch causes heart disease, but can't be proven, then why ingest a substance with side effects that prove to possess life diminishing qualities?
