Research finds apples just as effective as these dangerous drugs

Sometimes I just don’t know how these researchers come to their conclusions.

Take a look at this study just out from England.

Researchers at Oxford University found that eating an apple a day is likely “as effective” as taking a statin drug every day to lower cholesterol.

They also said that side-effects from those statin drugs can cause muscle disease, muscle breakdown and diabetes.

So, what was their brilliant conclusion? Are you ready for this one?

We should eat both apples and take the drug that causes all those side effects!

Are they for real? I mean if eating an apple can give you the same results — without the risk of diabetes and other problems — who in their right mind would say to do both?

And they added that “experts” would like everyone over 50 to start up on these dangerous drugs. (Sounds like a good marketing plan for diabetes drugs…)

Looks like that old saying, “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” is getting the same treatment from Big Pharma that we’ve been getting for years…
