Beating The World's Biggest Killer

from Food For Thought

According to the World Health Organisation, over 18 million people die from it every single year, that’s over 30% of all global deaths.

To help answer these critical questions and hopefully help save lives is Professor Martin Cowie, Consultant Cardiologist at Imperial College London.
