No change your diet.
Those things are horrific for you.
It is complicated, and individualized. I agree that large doses, over a long time, have some pretty ugly correlated health concerns.
For most of us, getting thinner, eating more plants and less animal fat, exercising a bit, managing stress better, and a light dose of statins is probably the best course. Then ease off the statins once success is achieved. But if you can get it down without the statins, more power to you and well done.
