I have been reading this book this weekend and I am in total agreement that the whole Cholesterol thing is a bit of a red herring. Being involved in the food industry the mass use of low fat foods that replace fat with carbohydrates cause the problem in my view.

It is an excellent read, very funny in places and makes quite a good easy read. Before you spend £000’s on cholesterol lowering foods, spreads and cheeses probably best to read it!
