When cholesterol is discussed we often think about the heart, heart disease and even stroke, but memory and cognitive function don’t generally cross our minds, although they should. New research from Heidelberg University in Germany found that having high cholesterol can negatively affect memory and cognitive decline in aging.
Cholesterol is naturally produced by the body and also ingested through the foods we eat. When cholesterol levels are normal it actually helps the body function properly, but when cholesterol levels get too high, it becomes a serious threat to overall health.

It isn’t the Cholesterol that make you forget. It is the Statin drugs that do that.
