Welcome!

On this website you will find information and resources to accompany the book $29 Billion Reasons to Lie About Cholesterol.

Cholesterol-lowering has now become a large global industry worth at least US$ 29 billion each year. Pharmaceutical companies are of course very keen to protect this industry - they invest heavily in the 'education' of doctors and the general public.

It has recently been reported that Pfizer spent $241 million last year on consumer adverts for its cholesterol-lowering statin, Lipitor. The year before, $104 million was spent. A lot of money has been spent on telling people that cholesterol causes heart disease - and keeping this lie alive is getting more expensive each year.

Mainstream western medicine is facing a number of fundamental problems. Most people are not aware of the extent that these problems exist. For an introduction to these issues, please read chapter 9 of my book for free.

If you are concerned about statins, cholesterol, heart disease, diabetes, or if you are looking to loose weight, you will find a range of additional resources on this website.

I welcome your questions, comments, and suggestions, so please do use the contact page as appropriate.

To start with, you may want to click on the health topic to the left that concerns you most, read through the blog entries, or download a copy of published articles.

Sincerely,

Justin Smith
