Heart Disease Myths and Why Cholesterol Isn’t the Villain Everyone Thinks It Is | Dr. Malcolm Kendrick

What if everything you’ve been told about cholesterol and heart disease was wrong?

On this week’s Better Health Bookshelf, I’m featuring the book The Clot Thickens: The Enduring Mystery of Heart Disease. Dr. Malcolm Kendrick is a medical doctor with decades of clinical experience and a fearless voice when it comes to exposing dangerous heart disease myths. 

He’s the author of several books, a respected blogger, and a strong advocate for patients questioning the status quo in heart health.

If you’ve ever been told your cholesterol numbers are too high and you need to start statins right away—or if you’re worried because heart disease runs in your family—this episode is for you. 

Dr. Kendrick explains in plain, everyday language why the real root cause of heart disease may not be cholesterol at all, and what you should focus on instead.

Dr. Kendrick breaks down the biggest heart disease myths, why mainstream advice might be harming more than helping, and what everyday people can do to stay heart healthy for life. 

You’ll walk away with a fresh, empowering way to think about your health—and some easy-to-do action steps.
