Heads up for the Silicon Valley Mom's blog. They have recently registered outrage at the American Academy of Pediatrics for advocated statin drugs to children (pay attention, but please forgive me for not resisting to point towards the analogy of body fat to plastic insulation that serves here as quite persuasive rhetorical evidence for the AAP critique):
Cholesterol is critical for brain function. Does the AAP really think that kids' brains will develop normally by reducing cholesterol in their body? Remember, they haven't even studied it! Our nerves are surrounded by fatty insulation which serves the same function as plastic insulation around electric wire.
