Chapter Overview

Description

The Great Cholesterol Myth (2012) takes medical orthodoxy and turns it on its head. Rather than blaming heart disease on cholesterol and dietary fat, this book calls for a more nuanced view of the causes of cardiovascular illnesses. Drawing on cutting-edge research into nutrition and human health, The Great Cholesterol Myth argues that we’ve misunderstood heart disease for decades.

Who Should Listen

  • Health nuts keen to learn the latest in medical thought
  • Amateur dietitians interested in healthy eating
  • Anyone living with cardiovascular disease
