Cognitive Distortions of People Who Get Stuff Done...
If someone has high cholesterol don't they already have the beginnings of disease? Are there people taking statins with zero plaque in their arteries?

As far as I know, high cholesterol only correlates with heart attacks and strokes. there are also people who have high cholesterol and will not experience a heart attack in their life.

Those with high cholesterol have plaque in their arteries. That is not normal and I would consider that a state of disease.
