This book was recommended to me by a holistic medical professional aboard a cruise ship who happened to be from Australia. The book goes into great detail about the myths that we have been led to believe (and which perpetuate due the huge money that cholesterol medications generate) and the risks of taking these medicines, so that one can make an educated decision. They also point other factors that are equally, if not even more indicative of possible future heart trouble which you might not even hear about from your doctor, they're so fixated on cholesterol! They conclude the book with common sense nutritional guidelines and recipes. A very informative read!
