WHO: No relationship between cholesterol & heart disease
An ongoing study by the World Health Organisation, reported here by Dr
Malcolm Kendrick MD, shows no relationship between cholesterol level & heart disease. Russia has a high incidence of heart disease but the third lowest average cholesterol. Chinal had 2% of population with high cholesterol (6.5mmol/l) and Switzerland has a wopping 51%. http://www.redflagsweekly.com/kendrick/2004_sept16.html Does this mean I can eat Chinese takeaway with impunity?! gtoomey

Was this correlated for other risk factors as to avoid bias? Given the current situation is Russia, I would say most of the low cholesterol comes from liver intoxication, thanks to vodka consumption. Then, if you compound that with a catastrophic healthcare system and low incomes, it's no wonder they're doing so badly. On the other hand, Switzerland has one of the best healthcare system and one of the highest GPD per capita on this planet. It doesn't take into account cholesterol breakdown (HDL,LDL) and triglycerides, which are a lot more meaningful than total cholesterol.

No. LOL This from the anti-science, anti-journals, anti-expert fool who complains about others not being helpful. Idiot. Opinion with no basis for belief. Faith, not information. Not facts. Not reason. Not logic. Not constructive data. Not a real name - not showing any balls... Nothing new. Move along... nothing to see here... Bob
