From the bestselling author of The 21-Day Immunity Plan and co-author of The Pioppi Diet, a revolutionary life plan for tackling heart disease - without the use of statins.
'Giving you all the facts to help you decide how best to have a healthy life. - Dr Phil Hammond
Statins are among the most widely prescribed drugs in the world. Yet many report unacceptable side effects and a US survey revealed that 75 per cent of respondents stopped taking them within a year.
So what is the evidence for their benefits? Dr Aseem Malhotra, author of the bestselling The 21-Day Immunity Plan and co-author of the bestselling The Pioppi Diet, examines the claims for statins and their role in lowering cholesterol and preventing heart disease. He introduces us to his targeted heart-health plan, which, with a diet plan, recipes and advice on reducing stress and increasing movement, can help us to live statin-free and take control of our own health.

'Get this book to figure out if a statin-free life is right for you.' - Dr Robert Lustig
