I am bumping up this old thread to point out the important Japanese study of last year
https://healthimpactnews.com/2015/j...ol-live-longer/
https://www.karger.com/Article/Pdf/381654
summary: for women past 60 or so, the higher the cholesterol the longer the life. There is never a good reason to give statins to a woman. For men, ideal is 250-300. The important thing is to be well above 160. Now go convince your doctor, and if you can not, put up a strenuous resistance when he orders statins. Note that this is a meta-analysis, with plenty western studies mixed in.
