Show 895: The Great Cholesterol Myth
WeÕve all heard that high cholesterol is a prelude to a heart attack. But doctors and patients alike may have been misled into focusing on this single risk factor among more than a hundred others. Our guests have scoured the medical literature and concluded that we need to re-think our approach to cholesterol and heart disease.
What is the optimal diet to reduce your risk of heart disease? (And why donÕt you need to worry about the cholesterol in your breakfast eggs?) Our guests give surprisingÐbut evidence-basedÐadvice on healthy living.
One further note: The New York Times blog describes the Sydney Diet Heart Study showing more cardiovascular mortality among volunteers who consumed less saturated fat.
