About this listen

Statins are among the most widely prescribed drugs in the world. Yet many report unacceptable side effects, and a US survey revealed that 75 per cent of respondents stopped taking them within a year.

So what is the evidence for their benefits? Dr Aseem Malhotra, author of the best-selling The 21-Day Immunity Plan and co-author of the best-selling The Pioppi Diet, examines the claims for statins and their role in lowering cholesterol and preventing heart disease. He introduces us to his targeted heart-health plan, which, with a diet plan, recipes and advice on reducing stress and increasing movement, can help us to live statin-free and take control of our own health.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Lots of research so took time to ‘cut to the chase’

Some useful practical information but not until much later in the book in the latter chapters.

Audio book not worth it as need the handouts that go with the book

Great book but should have been offered as a package with the actual printed book or some way of downloading the menus etc

life Saving

This book is packed with goodness. A well written brief on the impact of big pharma and industrialised food production on our nations health. If we want to change the world for the better there is no place better to start than with ourself. This book will set the foundation for that world changing endeavour.

Brilliant Book

Once again Dr Aseem Malholtra writes an easy to understand and informative book. This has helped my husband and I enormously whilst we wait for him to have an angiogram in hospital for an, as yet, undiagnosed reason for AF. Whilst waiting, of course as mentioned by Aseem, my husband has been put on the full range of normal drugs!!! No explanations, even when questioned! At least when we have a diagnosis we will be able to make more informed decisions as to the way forward. Oh, and when I mentioned Coronary Calcium Score, the Junior Doctor thought I was ‘in the profession’. 😃 Thank you!

A balanced approach to benefit & risk - excellent!

As a Nutritional Therapist, I fully recommend this book by Dr Aseem Malhotra to any family members or friends that may be prescribed statins to fully understand the risk / benefit ratios of such medication.

that you don't necessarily need statins

interesting read not sure if my doctor will agree, but it's definitely worth my investigating the need for statins

Explains hidden truths very well.

Very informative book. Talks about so much more than statins. I highly recommend listening to this audio book if you had a heart attack like myself at an early age due to possible stress with no blocked arteries.
