Statin, medications used to lower cholesterols. There is one case report of a man who developed rhabdomyolysis (a condition where muscle tissue breaks down and leads to kidney damage) after taking rosuvastatin (Crestor) and drinking 200 ml of pomegranate juice weekly. Although scientists are not sure whether drinking pomegranate juice while taking statins caused the condition, you should check with your doctor before drinking pomegranate juice if you also take a statin. Statins include:
Statins will attack muscle tissue cause muscle pain and your hearts a muscle even though a different type of muscle it’s still a muscle. So I can pretty well guess it’s the statins. Whether the other enhances it I can’t say but pomegranate doesn’t deplete Co Q 10 like statins. Anyone on them can’t give advice .. but IMO should take Coq10 and be monitored.
