Bowden, Jonny,

The great cholesterol myth : why lowering your cholesterol won't prevent heart disease-- and the statin-free plan that will / [print] Jonny Bowden, Ph. D., Stephen Sinatra, M.D. - Beverly, MA : Fair Winds Press, (c)2012. - 239 pages ; 23 cm



Why you should be skeptical of cholesterol as an indicator of heart disease "Cholesterol is harmless!" ; Inflammation: the true cause of heart disease ; Sugar: the real demon in the diet ; The truth about fat: it's not what you think ; The statin scam ; Help your heart with these supplements ; Stress: the silent killer ; Putting it all together: a simple and easy blueprint for a healthy heart and life!

Traditional heart disease protocols, with their emphasis on lowering cholesterol, have it all wrong. Emerging science is showing that cholesterol levels are a poor predictor of heart disease. Many research results actually stem from pharmaceutical companies intent on supporting the 31-billion-a-year cholesterol-lowering drug industry. Bowden and Sinatra give readers a strategy for effectively preventing, managing, and reversing heart disease, focusing on diet, exercise, supplements, and stress and anger management.
