Antioxidants and statins (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutary-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors) A three-year randomized controlled trial in 160 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and low high-density-lipoprotein (HDL) levels found that a combination of simvastatin (Zocor) and niacin increased the HDL2 subfraction level (considered the most cardioprotective), inhibited the progression of coronary artery stenosis (narrowing), and decreased the frequency of cardiovascular events, such as myocardial infarction and stroke (130)
Understanding the molecular mechanisms of sulfur dysregulation and its role in the development of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric illnesses could accelerate future research
