Statins and Type 2 Diabetes | ADP | June 11, 2022

This week, on A Different Perspective, Dr. Jason Nobles fills in for Dr. Flynn and makes the connection between statin drugs and type 2 diabetes. Statins are generally prescribed to lower cholesterol, which is then supposed to lower your risk for heart disease. However, statin drugs increase your risk for developing type 2 diabetes… which ultimately increases your risk for heart disease. Dr. Jason shares a different perspective on both cholesterol and heart disease.
