The Great Cholesterol Con

Statins are commonly prescribed to reduce cholesterol and are touted as the ultimate defense against heart disease. Regarded as completely safe and capable of preventing numerous conditions, they have become the most lucrative drug ever.

 In this eye-opening book, GP Malcolm Kendrick challenges these claims and reshapes our understanding of cholesterol. He dismantles the diet-heart theory linking high cholesterol and fat intake to heart disease, criticizing the pharmaceutical industry and medical community for promoting misleading ideas about “good” and “bad” cholesterol.

“The Great Cholesterol Con” offers a compelling, clear-eyed argument against statins and calls for a more sensible approach to heart health and wellbeing. This essential read exposes the myths surrounding diet, drugs, and heart disease, urging readers to rethink what truly supports coronary health.
