There is no advertising, PR or investigation in this book. Its author strives to find a clear, reasoned and realistic-sounding answer to the questions: why, if smoking, drinking and eating cholesterol-containing products is so harmful, in no country in the world are distilleries, tobacco factories, drinking establishments, meat processing plants, gambling houses and casino? Why does no one at the state level prohibit or practically restrict advertising of all of the listed forms of business? Why is it that all the variety of ways to influence the situation (if it is as alarming as they claim!) is reduced to the dissemination of scientifically untenable theories in the general public and to the popularization of completely incompetent concepts? Everyone has the right to know the truth - the truth based on facts. Facts are at the heart of this book. Readers will learn: what role cholesterol actually plays in our bodies (the latest scientific evidence); what are the dangers of LOW cholesterol levels; what are the ways to control cholesterol levels; exposing the “swindle of the century”; what humanity got instead of cholesterol; who, how and to what extent was the benefit of the “cholesterol war”? The book is intended for the widest range of readers - regardless of age, gender and income level.
