Perhaps it may seem strange, but experts, based on the studies carried out, equated the effect of statins on the body with the effects of ordinary apples. They are sure that older people (over 50) can reduce the risk of death from stroke or heart attack by using a single apple per day.
According to doctors, heart patients are usually forced to take statins. This is the name given to drugs that lower the level of bad cholesterol in the blood. Taking such pills can be equated with primary prevention of many heart and vascular ailments. However, doctors say, based on the work done, simple apples act on the body just as well. A single apple eaten per day can save 8,5 people with heart disease from death.
Experts clarify that they do not urge to stop taking medications… It is simply advised to add to them herbal means of prevention in the form of any kind of apples.
