About this listen

This is a 150-year detective story with a cast of unrecognized heroes who may, finally, become known for their work on the true causes of heart disease. Exploring the truth about cholesterol—the apparently tried, and convicted, cause of millions of deaths from heart disease—with billions spent each year on lowering cholesterol with diet and drugs.

Is it possible that our villain was simply left holding the gun whilst the true culprits ran and hid? Have they escaped our clutches?

Dr. Kendrick also introduces us to a range of other lesser known characters in this tale of selective reporting, data manipulation, and intrigue. The true story of heart disease is out there, and the evidence has been brought together here—a scientific mystery for our time that is ready to unfold.

Dr Malcolm Kendricks gives a very compelling case for an alternative hypothesis for heart disease. And completely demolishes the cholesterol hypothesis. Anyone even remotely interested in health should read this book. Heck, even those not interested at all should read it. Everyone should.

A must-read!

An excellent introduction to heart disease and an eye opener to what could have happened as opposed to what most of the medical profession would have you believe has happened.

This is perhaps the best book I've read on this topic by a mile. The author breaks down complex topics so easily that any lay man can understand. Surely a 5 star book with a 5 star narrator. A very useful contribution to understanding CVDs and related issues

A MASTERCLASS

Essential exposure of the flaws in the ever-failing cholesterol hypothesis, making the clotting theory obvious. Accessible to anyone, so brilliantly explained. And packed with humor, who would have thought possible for such a topic!
