Statins and Lowering Cholesterol Do Not Stop Heart Disease: Dr. Malcolm Kendrick

from British Thought Leaders · host British Thought Leaders

NTD’s Lee Hall sits down with author Dr. Malcolm Kendrick, a general practitioner who has spent decades speaking out against the idea that high cholesterol causes heart disease. Kendrick says we have been misled about the effect that eating saturated fat has on heart health. He also talks about statins, the most widely prescribed and profitable drug in the history of medicine, which he says provide very little protection against heart disease and come with the risk of considerable side effects.
