Pu-erh tea contains **lovastatin**, a type of statin. Lovastatin was found in Pu-Erh tea under ethyl acetate extraction, and it existed merely as lactone form in ethyl acetate and methanol extracts. Clinical trials have confirmed that statin decreases the incidence of major coronary and cerebrovascular events and this may be due to its hypolipidemic and anti-inflammatory effects.  Rolleyes

Statins are prescribed for the treatment of bad cholesterol which is a chronic disease. Drinking tea which contain a statin naturally or taking a tablet of statin is the same thing.
