Book by Ernest N. Curtis, M.D., Released by Dog Ear Publishing
The Cholesterol Delusion, published byDog Ear Publishing, traces the development of the Cholesterol Theory, Lipid Hypothesis and Diet-Heart Theory, pointing out where they are based on “faulty evidence and unscientific reasoning,” the author writes. The book goes even further, attacking the foundation of the “risk factor” paradigm that has dominated cardiovascular research as well as other medical research for decades. A glossary, appendices on how to read medical journal reports, and actual reports on a lipid research clinics trial and a heart study prove to be helpful tools in comprehending this complicated issue. This book, written for intelligent laymen, will open the eyes of anyone who has been told he has elevated levels of cholesterol that must be medically controlled.
