Our Crazy CHOLESTEROL Obsession with Dr Ross Walker

from The Aging Project · host The Aging Project

“Your cholesterol is high.” It’s a phrase millions hear each year—often followed by a statin prescription and little else. But with statins now the most prescribed drugs on the planet, why is heart disease still the world’s #1 killer? And why are we not talking about the bigger picture? In this hard-hitting episode, we’re joined by Dr. Ross Walker, one of Australia’s leading voices in preventive cardiology, to challenge the mainstream narrative—and ask the questions that could save lives. We explore:  The truth behind cholesterol—what it is, what it isn’t, and why one number shouldn't define your risk. Statins: miracle drug or misunderstood medicine? Who really benefits, and at what cost? The role of genetics—including the common but underdiagnosed condition, Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH). Visit the DNA Screen Project to learn more: https://dnascreen.monash.edu/  Why prevention struggles to compete with Big Pharma—and what needs to change. The 30-Day Heart Health Plan every listener should hear, with Dr. Walker’s actionable advice on food, movement, stress, and testing. This episode is not anti-medication—it’s pro-information. Because your heart health deserves more than a prescription. 🎧 Listen now to rethink what you’ve been told, and what you’ve accepted. Your life—or the life of someone you love—may depend on it.
