Statins in children

American academy of paediatricians is recommending that children as young as eight should be prescribed statins for cholesterol and obesity to prevent heart disease in later life. The idea has been backed by some UK doctors.

However statins carry side effects on liver function and muscle pain and weakness which could be damaging on developing body.
Correct nutritional advice and simple, safe herbal supplement can lower cholesterol and reduce weight for someone of any age allowing natural development for children and lowering the risk of cardiac problems in later life.
