The Clot Thickens

The Enduring Mystery of Heart Disease

De: Dr Malcolm Kendrick

Narrado por: Matthew Lloyd Davies

This is a 150-year detective story with a cast of unrecognized heroes who may, finally, become known for their work on the true causes of heart disease. Exploring the truth about cholesterol—the apparently tried, and convicted, cause of millions of deaths from heart disease—with billions spent each year on lowering cholesterol with diet and drugs.

Is it possible that our villain was simply left holding the gun whilst the true culprits ran and hid? Have they escaped our clutches?

Dr. Kendrick also introduces us to a range of other lesser known characters in this tale of selective reporting, data manipulation, and intrigue. The true story of heart disease is out there, and the evidence has been brought together here—a scientific mystery for our time that is ready to unfold.

Long, but great details

Helps us see cholesterol for what it actually does, and sheds light on less-mentioned causes of heart attack and stroke.

Wow! The science stood out the most.

It is another fabulous book pointing to the truth. Eventually, the titanic of the regular medical, pharmaceutical and insurance systems have to turn around or sink as more and more people learn of the false information and manipulation that they are based on.

Perfect: deeply informative and enjoyable

Open my eyes about what needs to be done. It’s in line with our current path: fasting, low carbs, high intensity exercise and great nutrition but it has helped us refine and enhance our program. Highly recommended.

Shots Fired!

An anabashed, snarky review of the theory that cholesterol (LDL) causes heart disease. Sign me up.

Excellent, eye opening book

Great health information presented with humor. Covers many health aspects. I wish my doctor would read this....

Information Everyone Needs

Loved that the narrator caught Dr Kendrick’s personality. The information is empowering and a necessary counterpoint to the prevailing “wisdom.”

Pulling back the veil of medical science

A gift of health you can give yourself without a co- payment.
Truly an eye-opener.q

Enjoyable way to learn biochemistry!

Light-hearted humor surrounded by facts and facts and realistic hypotheses, rather than propaganda (translation rubbish).

Great info. Enjoyable presentation.

I never imagined that I would enjoy a book about cardiovascular disease, but this was a pleasurable read with incredible information. I highly recommend this to anyone who is suffering from heart disease or anyone who knows someone suffering from heart disease (basically everyone).

Excelent!

Beautifully done! I've already listened to it at least four times, adding more notes each time. The humor and charm of the author make this subject feel like common conversation. Give us more!
