The great cholesterol myth Why lowering your cholesterol won't prevent heart disease-- and the statin-free plan that will

Jonny Bowden

Book - 2012

Traditional heart disease protocols, with their emphasis on lowering cholesterol, have it all wrong. Emerging science is showing that cholesterol levels are a poor predictor of heart disease. Many research results actually stem from pharmaceutical companies intent on supporting the $31-billion-a-year cholesterol-lowering drug industry. Bowden and Sinatra give readers a strategy for effectively preventing, managing, and reversing heart disease, focusing on diet, exercise, supplements, and stress and anger management.

A Note on Materials I have a studio full of art supplies I rarely use. In the end, I prefer to work with a fairly small list. With a few exceptions, the following is all you will need to do the projects in this book: - Mechanical pencil - Ultra Fine-Point Sharpie (permanent marker) - Ballpoint pen - White paint pen - Watercolors - #12 round watercolor brush - Soft vine charcoal - White gesso - White acrylic ink - Colored pencils - Markers (any kind) - 1 or 2 light grey Copic markers (or something similar) I work in small 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch (14 x 14 cm) sketchbooks, on white card stock from the office supply store, #140 hot-press watercolored paper, or wood.
