The statins (like Lipitor and Zocor) are used to treat high cholesterol and have been very successful in reducing a person’s risk for heart attacks and strokes. In this review the findings suggested that taking a high dose of a statin increased one’s risk for developing type 2 diabetes by 12%, although, it must be added, that the risk for heart attack and stroke dropped by 16%. I say “suggested” because this study was a meta-analysis, which is a review of the data from several different studies to see if there is a pattern that emerges to prompt a more direct investigation. So, that means that a new study to look at the effects of high dose statins and the development of type 2 diabetes would give us a more definitive answer. What I think is a good take-home message from this is that by making lifestyle changes like eating right and exercising most people would not even have to worry about taking high dose statins and by virtue of having a healthier lifestyle the risk for type 2 diabetes would be minimized.
