You have got to be kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cholesterol drugs recommended for young children
By Associated Press CHICAGO (AP) - The American Academy of Pediatrics says some children as young as eight should be given cholesterol-fighting drugs to help ward off future heart problems.
That's a significant change from the group's previous policy, which said cholesterol-reducing drugs should only be considered in children older than 10 who have weight problems. But the academy's nutrition committee says mounting evidence shows that damage leading to heart disease begins early in life.
The committee also notes there's research showing cholesterol drugs are generally safe for children.
Under the new guidelines, the drugs would be given to children as young as eight who have too much so-called "bad" cholesterol.
The academy is also recommending cholesterol testing for children as young as two.
And, for the first time, it's recommending that even one-year-olds should be given low-fat milk, in cases where overweight or obesity "is a concern." One doctor on the panel acknowledges that could include virtually all children.

Reasons:
1.) $$Money$$
2.) And the outright lack of any plan concerning education and prevention of childhood obesity. Schools cut P.E. and Health classes are a joke concerning fitness and "well-being"
So what do we do? Pump fucking CHILDREN full of statin drugs. Fucking clueless.

The problem is a healthy diet/lifestyle as of now does not make profit. I am curious to see what kind of research backs their statements up. I would bet if they conducted trials comparing the effectiveness of these drugs vs adopting a healthy lifestyle in order to reduce cholesterol levels in children, the results would make the AAP seem like they jumped the gun a bit.

Nothing to get excited over. If the government wants to tell obvious lies and the ignorant lazy masses want to follow them, "that don't confront me none", as your negro friends say. I know the truth about nutrition and health, and I know the government is about the worst possible source of information in those areas. What do I care what others do?

If the kid doesn't have cholesterol that's out of whack because you feed him a good diet and he exercises, I seriously can't see making the taking of a statin, a class of drugs that has known and recognized side effects, a requirement.

Drug companies and the government that helps them succeed. Get people hocked and reliant on drugs and these companies have a great feature. Kill and hid all the knowledge. Brilliant.

Statin drugs are not a cure for obesity nor do they prevent heart attacks.
