The Great Cholesterol Con - The Truth About What Really Causes Heart Disease and How to Avoid It

Informationen zum Autor Malcolm Kendrick Klappentext Believed to be completely safe, statins have been the most profitable drug in the history of medicine. Dr Kenderick, however, presents the evidence that they don't have much effect on cholesterol, that cholesterol doesn't cause heart disease anyway and that statins have dangerous side effects. The first edition of this controversial book sold well, and was serialised in the "Daily Mail". Zusammenfassung Statins are the so-called wonder drugs prescribed to lower blood cholesterol levels and claim to offer unparalleled protection against heart disease. This book exposes the truth behind the hype, revealing high cholesterol levels don't cause heart disease, and, a high-fat diet - saturated or otherwise - does not affect blood cholesterol levels.
