[AT] now Heart concerns

[Herb Metz]

Dan, I have been playing that 'high cholesterol game' since mid 1990's; I 
certainly agree with you in wondering WHO. We are the pawns. I have wanted 
to ask Stephen Offiler for more info as to his apparent difference of 
opinion on preventive heart care that he briefly mentioned a couple weeks 
ago.
About the only thing every 'health authority' agrees on is the need to stay 
active; I can remember a conversation from late fortys when Dad and a cousin 
were discussing health care. Dad noted that doctors 'used to' tell recently 
retired people to sit back and relax and enjoy life because they had worked 
hard all their life and now should take it easy, but unfortunately those 
people were buried a few years later, so doctors had recently quit telling 
people that.  They are learning more every day; unfortunately every thing 
must be approved by Big Pharma and by AMA (who has huge bunch of lobbyists).

Just remember to read the list of side effects before taking a
cholesterol lowering drug, some of them are brutal.
