All of us that have been living since World War II have been subjected to one of the biggest propaganda campaigns of all time. It is a narrative concerning cholesterol and dietary fats and how they result in serious illness such as heart attacks and strokes. It has led to the wholesale abandonment of traditional diets and populations switching to supposedly healthy low-fat foods.
We have previously exposed the pseudoscience of the industry’s ‘Food Pyramids‘ and now we look more closely at the medicalisation of the narrative. It had already captured our attention when we alerted the public to “10 Ways You are Being Tricked by the CDC“. Claiming that the health of a nation has improved is bad enough, using it as a cover story for the healthcare system hoax is a crime.
In the video I outline the science of cholesterol and the recommended “treatment” with statins, one of the pharmaceutical industry’s blockbuster drugs. Do you need to worry about lipid and cholesterol tests or, like blood pressure, are they false targets? Finally, how does this relate to terrain theory and finding your best path to true health through natural lifestyles and diet.

Love your work! Thanks so much!
Quote: Dr Natasha Campbell-McBride at the end of the film; ‘Statin Nation’:
“The last thing you want to do is to interfere with your blood levels of cholesterol. Your body knows what it’s doing. Whatever level of cholesterol you have got at the moment in your blood stream is the right level for you. Don’t mess around with it.”
Sums it up nicely. Good movie.
Thanks, Sam.
Hey guys, you missed the opportunity to say how Ancel Key’s research has come into question due to cherry-picking.
Even ChatGPT is saying the evidence that saturated fat being the principal cause of heart disease is “complicated”.
thank you dr sam great video
So much great content Dr Bailey, and this one is no exception. Thanks for your tireless work exposing the “anti” health industry. One day it will all be very clear to everyone, and this period in time will look like a very dark stain in the history of medicine and science.
I think you’ll find that total revenue, globally, from Statin Sales is nearer $1 Trillion!!!
