I’m Dr. Mitch Rice, a board certified primary care physician, and today I’m breaking down exactly how statins work, when they’re genuinely life saving, and when the medical system reaches for them in situations where they’re not the right tool at all.

You’ll learn:

✔️ What’s actually happening inside your liver every time you take a statin
✔️ The list of things statins do not do that most patients assume they do
✔️ Why some people still have heart attacks while their cholesterol looks perfect on paper
✔️ The side effect conversation most doctors skip entirely
✔️ Exactly which patients genuinely need a statin and which ones need something else first
✔️ The root cause that’s often driving high cholesterol long before a prescription is written

Dr. Mitch Rice, DO (Doctor Mitch) is a board certified family medicine physician focused on helping adults lower cholesterol naturally, slow aging, and protect the organs that matter most.
