Summary
Statins are among the most widely prescribed drugs in the world. Yet many report unacceptable side effects, and a US survey revealed that 75 per cent of respondents stopped taking them within a year.
So what is the evidence for their benefits? Dr Aseem Malhotra, author of the best-selling The 21-Day Immunity Plan and co-author of the best-selling The Pioppi Diet, examines the claims for statins and their role in lowering cholesterol and preventing heart disease. He introduces us to his targeted heart-health plan, which, with a diet plan, recipes and advice on reducing stress and increasing movement, can help us to live statin-free and take control of our own health.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Brilliant Book
Once again Dr Aseem Malholtra writes an easy to understand and informative book. This has helped my husband and I enormously whilst we wait for him to have an angiogram in hospital for an, as yet, undiagnosed reason for AF. Whilst waiting, of course as mentioned by Aseem, my husband has been put on the full range of normal drugs!!! No explanations, even when questioned! At least when we have a diagnosis we will be able to make more informed decisions as to the way forward. Oh, and when I mentioned Coronary Calcium Score, the Junior Doctor thought I was ‘in the profession’. 😃 Thank you!

Lots of research so took time to ‘cut to the chase’
Some useful practical information but not until much later in the book in the latter chapters.

Audio book not worth it as need the handouts that go with the book
Great book but should have been offered as a package with the actual printed book or some way of downloading the menus etc

Explains hidden truths very well.
Very informative book. Talks about so much more than statins. I highly recommend listening to this audio book if you had a heart attack like myself at an early age due to possible stress with no blocked arteries.

Well 5 stents one heart attack and one stroke
I’ve changed my diet completely
Been doing Keto for 3 months and type 2 I have reversed my diabetes, and come of 2000 mg metformin daily.
I am on 40mg of statin with this I have ED, erectile dysfunction,
I’m in talks with my Dr to half my dose, my cholesterol is 4 now after having a test done last week. I feel so much better still slightly high blood pressure 127/79, but im working on the breathing exercises in this book, so we’ll put together. I must listen too if you have side affects that made me question mine.
Thanks so very much , I tend to listen to it every month, to see how else I can change something.

Excellent, sensible, simple advice.
A great book with simple explanations and instructions.
Anyone looking for an alternative narrative for heart health should have a listen.

It works and is shocking that it’s not standard
I adopted a Low Carb diet after being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol. Statins and Metaformin for life the doctors said, I chose to research an alternative path.
From 102.5 kg to 85kg in a little over a year cholesterol sorted and type 2 reversed and no exercise ( need to improve here).
I recently had a CAC test and was given a heart age of less than 30years old. I’m 54 in August. No medication just diet, meat, cream, butter, all the stuff they tell you not to eat. Zero carbs, zero sugar - Keto is the way…
