High Cholesterol, Statin Drugs, and Smoking: Why Your Liver Needs You Now
Do you have high cholesterol? Are you taking a statin drug? Do you smoke cigarettes or reach for diet soda to get through the day? If so, your body is juggling multiple challenges — and your liver sits at the center of it all. While statins are prescribed to lower cholesterol, they can drain energy, deplete nutrients like CoQ10, vitamin D, and affect hormone production — sometimes while masking symptoms that point to deeper issues.
The Hidden Dangers of Statin Drugs
Statins inhibit HMG-CoA reductase, the enzyme your liver uses to make cholesterol. That can reduce LDL, but it also lowers your body’s production of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), Vitamin D, and steroid hormones (testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, DHEA, cortisol) — all key for vitality. It blocks the pathways for not just bad cholesterol, but nearly everything that needs to be filtered by the liver. Overtime symptoms and toxic "side" effects start to show but we don't know where it's coming from.
Commonly reported statin toxic "side" effects (often overlooked):
Muscle pain, weakness, cramps (often chased with ibuprofen/Advil → more liver & kidney workload)
Fatigue, low stamina (masked with coffee, energy drinks, or smoking)
Brain fog, memory problems, confusion
Digestive issues: nausea, bloating, constipation, diarrhea
Sleep disturbances: insomnia, vivid dreams
Numbness/tingling in hands or feet
Joint pain (sometimes labeled “fibromyalgia”)
Low libido / sexual dysfunction
Mood changes: irritability, anxiety, depressed mood
*Adding more OTC meds for each symptom can compound toxicity. Your liver has to process everything you swallow.
Why Your Liver Deserves More Attention
Your liver has duties:
Filters toxins from the blood
Processes vitamins, medications, and supplements
Produces bile to digest fats
Balances cholesterol production and removal
Converts food into usable energy and hormones
Smoking, drinking alcohol, eating ultra-processed foods, and daily medications keep your liver in constant overdrive, contributing to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), sluggish metabolism, and low energy.

Extra Support: Energy, Vitamin D & Craving Control
Supports liver & metabolic health: Vitamin D receptors are present in liver tissue; optimal D status is associated with healthy liver enzymes and fat metabolism. Statin drugs block this process, depleting us in vitamin D, enzymes, and other essential nutrients needed for digestion. This process isn't a side effect, it's how the meds lower the cholesterol.
Cholesterol balance: Vitamin D synthesis begins from cholesterol; adequate D helps the body utilize cholesterol effectively.
Immune & inflammation support: Modulates immune response and helps calm chronic inflammation that can burden the liver
Mood & energy: Low D is linked to low mood and fatigue — restoring levels can support motivation for healthier habits
