What Are “Drug Muggers” and Are They Robbing Your Body Right Now?

51e8JwMjZpL._SX339_BO1,204,203,200_

Joe and I were recently at a conference for independent pharmacists. While we were there, one of the guest speakers recommended a book by Suzy Cohen who is also a registered pharmacist.

The book, Drug Muggers (a phrase coined by Pharmacist Suzy), explains that, while prescription medications do a ton of good for many people, they can also lead to other side effects and diseases when they strip your body of nutrients that you need to function properly.

A drug mugger then is a medicine that “robs” your body of something you need. Most prescription medicines are drug muggers.

I thought that I would try to highlight a different class of drugs each week and explain what nutrients they leave your body lacking and why you should try to replace these depleted substances with vitamins and supplements.

First up are the statins or cholesterol lowering medications.

Joe and I had heard about this problem with prescription medications and the need to replace vitamins and minerals in the body a few years ago at another conference. After that conference, we started carrying Statinzyme in the pharmacy, because we learned what a toll statin medications can take on the body.

Stain drugs include:

  • atorvaSTATIN (Lipitor)
  • lovaSTATIN (Mevacor)
  • pravaSTATIN (Pravachol)

Some of the side effects that can occur with statins are:

  • joint and muscle pain
  • memory loss and confusion
  • liver damage

Statin drugs can leave you deficient in:

  • Coenzyme Q 10–necessary for the proper functioning of our muscles, including the heart. Decreased levels lead to muscle weakness and pain and problems with the heart.
  • Vitamin D–also necessary for normal heart function.

Statinzyme contains Coenzyme Q 10 and Vitamin D3. It also contains fish oil and flax seed oil to replace the HDL or “good cholesterol” that is depleted by the statin drugs. Statins lower your LDL or “bad cholesterol”, but they also lower the good HDL. Additionally, Statinzyme contains resveratrol, B6, B12, and folic acid; all of which help heart heath and decrease the likelihood of strokes and heart attacks.

You can read about all of the ingredients in Statinzyme and why you need them by going HERE.

You could buy all of these vitamins and minerals separately–and pay more–or you can get everything you need by taking two capsules of Statinzyme daily. For the cost of a daily cup of fancy coffee at Starbucks,  a daily dose of Statinzyme can protect your body and make you feel better.

During the month of November, we will be giving away four copies of Drug Muggers. So please stop in the store and fill out a raffle ticket. There is a ton of wonderful information in this book about many classes of prescription drugs–more information than I can possibly summarize in my blogs.

There is also an end cap in the pharmacy featuring Statinzyme and the vitamins and supplements needed if you are taking diabetes medications. I’ll have a blog posting on diabetes medicine “drug muggers” next week.

If you don’t think you will be lucky enough to win a copy in our raffle, order your copy of Drug Muggers HERE.
