Summary
The best-selling book on heart disease, updated with the latest research and clinical findings on high-fat/ketogenic diets, sugar, genetics, and other factors.
Heart disease is the number-one killer. However, traditional heart disease protocols - with their emphasis on lowering cholesterol - have it all wrong. Emerging science is showing that cholesterol levels are a poor predictor of heart disease and that standard prescriptions for lowering it, such as ineffective low-fat/high-carb diets and serious, side-effect-causing statin drugs, obscure the real causes of heart disease. Even doctors at leading institutions have been misled for years based on creative reporting of research results from pharmaceutical companies intent on supporting the $31-billion-a-year cholesterol-lowering drug industry.
The Great Cholesterol Myth reveals the real culprits of heart disease, including inflammation, fibrinogen, triglycerides, homocysteine, belly fat, triglyceride to HDL ratios, and high glycemic levels.

High Cholesterol, you need to get this
I was told I needed statins about a week ago and I held back.
2 days later I got this and listened to it non stop, im glad I did.
1 it confirmed my desired not to be on statins and it made me look for alternative options.
its confirmed what I've known for a while.
seriously this book needs to be read by everyone.
you owe it to yourself

Excellent but amusingly hypocritical
Great book and I agree with all the content and message. They rightly criticise the pharma industry’s approach to statistics using relative rather than absolute improvements. Then they go on to do exactly the same thing themselves for the rest of the book! Not a problem as I understand what they mean but it kept me amused!

Learnt a lot from this book. A little ranty at the start.
First few chapters were a little irritating with the disproportionate ranting:educational content and I nearly quit the book. I’m so glad I persisted because I have learnt a lot and think there are life-tips in here for everyone. I particular enjoyed soaking up the content on statins! Thank you.

Excellent book
This is an excellent book, so much information! Explains so much about cholesterol and statins. I enjoyed it so much that I also bought a copy for reference. GPs in the U.K. just want to bang you straight on a statin and this book explains that a lot of people don’t need to be on them.
