I do recommend coupling Crestor or any statin with CoEnzyme Q10 because the mechanism of the statins also intereferes with COQ10 production.

This! I wish I could convince my dad to at least ASK his doctor about this.

No, but my HDL is very high compared to my LDL – a .71 ratio if I remeber correctly.

Cool, and this isn’t trying to create an argument. You seem rather educated on the matter (obviously), what if your lipid profile was not so good? Of course I’ll have to add the caveat let’s take lifestyle changes out of it. Essentially, in your opinion does the evidence support the use for women.[/quote]
It depends on a host of factors, from the age of the woman and, more particularly, if she is post-menapausal (naturally or surgically), taking hormones, or taking anti-estrogens.
There are times for women to be on statins and times when the woman’s own hormones do a better job.
Men are checkers; women chess, so much so it is beyond the scope of an internet discussion.
