A 30-year government science fraud exposed

Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either. IMPORTANT! If you donate enough to get a book, please email me separately to tell me which book you want and the address to mail it to.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

There are powerful lobbies with deep vested interests on both sides of the cholesterol argument. Given the way our government works, when one lobby gets an upper-hand over the other, policies begin to sway in one direction or another. Therefore, the safest course of action by any individual is to ignore government recommendations and learn enough to draw your own conclusions.
For myself, I’ve dramatically changed my health for the better by adopting a whole food plant based diet that drastically reduces and eliminates animal protein, saturated fat, cholesterol and most importantly all processed foods. However, this is my choice for my own reasons. I wouldn’t want to force my dietary preferences on anyone else any more than I want someone else to force their dietary preferences on me.
As a society, we have to get out of the habit of believing the government is a source of non-biased, science-based “authoritative” information — when in reality it is quite the opposite.
I was prescribed statins to lower my cholesterol several years ago (first simvastatin then atorvastatin). I used to be a runner but had to give it up because I was having joint problems. Mostly my knees but also my hips and shoulders. I occasionally had to use a cane to get around. I thought I was just getting old. I was also bruising easily, I could make out the shape of the pads on the nautilus machines after a workout because of the bruises. My mom and sister were also taking statins for cholesterol with the same symptoms (but they really are old). My sister has a friend that is now using a walker. She was on statins too. Her doctor finally told her that one of the side effects of statins can be joint damage (and it can be permanent). They stopped taking them immediately and their symptoms are gradually clearing. The friend is still using a walker.
Just before Christmas this year, there was a mix-up with my refill and I ran out (I get them through the mail). My symptoms started to clear. Two weeks later, they filled the prescription and I started taking them again. My symptoms came roaring back and I was using a cane again. I stopped taking them and no longer use statins (against medical advice) and I am almost back to my “pre old-age” health. No more problems with running, ladders, or heavy physical labor.
I will never take statins again.
I took statins for a while.
They made me noticeably dumber, slower and more forgetful. I took myself off of them and have noticed improvements.
I recently read a different article that stated that statins harm short-term memory. Your symptoms would seem to be in-line with that finding.
Since I read that, I’ve started taking my statin Rx every other day. I do seem a bit sharper mentally. Maybe I’ll stop altogether and see if I notice more improvements.
Amusing. Remember the last scene in “Raiders Of The Lost Ark” – reference
Top Men. When it comes to Government – you do sometimes get the best, but you also get those who aren’t qualified to teach high school.
Government pay scales made it better for me to have honey bees. I worked half the time and made three times more.
