The Great Cholesterol Con

Dr. Malcolm Kendrick is one of the most outspoken and insightful critics of the established medical understanding of cholesterol and heart disease. In «The Great Cholesterol Con« He ruthlessly dismantles the myth that cholesterol causes cardiovascular disease. This is not a careful academic review, but a hard-hitting, entertaining and deeply revealing piece of health journalism that should make any thinking person question the entire pharmaceutical industry and the so-called "experts" who have created a billion-dollar industry out of fear of fat.

The book's core message

Kendrick shows with surgical precision how the idea that cholesterol is harmful has become a dogme rather than a scientific conclusion. He reveals how research results have been manipulated, how the pharmaceutical industry has cynically promoted statins as a panacea, and how governments, doctors, and the media have uncritically adopted these claims – despite the lack of solid scientific evidence.

He goes through:

• How the first studies linking cholesterol to heart disease were grossly misleading and based on selective data harvesting.
• Why High cholesterol may actually be protective for health, especially in older people.
• How did I Statins have become a gold mine for the pharmaceutical industry, despite having little or no effect on overall mortality for most people.
• Why inflammation, stress and insulin resistance are probably the real drivers behind cardiovascular disease – not saturated fat or cholesterol.

Why this book is important

For those who have been told that they need to cut out fat, avoid red meat and eat plant-based for the sake of their heart, this is a book that shatters the illusionIt provides a sense of freedom – an opportunity to realize that we have been led astray by industry and politics rather than real science.

If you have considered reading one book that will change the way you look at health, diet and medicine, this is the book for you. Not because Kendrick asks you to blindly believe him, but because he encourages you to to think for yourself and follow the data, not the propaganda.

For anyone standing on the sidelines and still believing that low fat, grains, and statins are the way to a long life – this is a reality check you don't want to miss.
