The cholesterol campaign is the greatest medical scandal in modern time. If you have read the author's previous books ´The Cholesteol Myths´ (out of print) or 'Fat and Cholesterol are GOOD for You', you should know that for certain. For instance, according to more than 25 scientific studies old people with high cholesterol live the longest. Another shocking fact is that the authors of a recent American study of more than 130,000 patients with acute myocardial infarction found that on average, their cholesterol was lower than normally. Their finding has already been confirmed by others. What they also found was that three years later, mortality was twice as high among those whose cholesterol was the lowest. Their conclusion? We must lower cholesterol even more! But there is much, much more. The author's aim with this book is to show how prominent scientists have turned white into black by ignoring all conflicting observations; by twisting and exaggerating trivial findings; by citing studies with opposing results in a way to make them look supportive; and by ignoring or scorning the work of critical scientists. Those who have not read his previous books may not quite understand the width of these misleading processes. He has therefore included a short and simplified review of the most obvious contradictions to the cholesterol hypothesis. At the end he presents what he and his colleague Kilmer McCully think is the real cause, here told in a more simple way than in his previous book.
Ignore the awkward! How the cholesterol myths are kept alive edition by Uffe Ravnskov Professional Technical eBooks
The book is the latest by a doctor who has done more than anyone else in the world to show the fallacy of Cholesterol Phobia.He hi-lights the fact that there are no studies showing that avoiding saturated fat and cholesterol is beneficial. In fact, there are many studies showing that dietary replacements may make health worse. Interestingly, people in the low blood-cholesterol groups in most studies die first, and often from diseases with long periods of suffering.
He makes an irrefutable case that that many with drug, food, research or other financial interests ignore and suppress the global evidence.
He shreds the cholesterol-lowering statin studies and illustrates the soft science, the soft endpoints and the conflicts of interests that are the rule in these trials. Give this book to your doctor if he/she wants to put you on a drug to lower your cholesterol. A worthwhile investment especially if you read the book first.

Ignore the awkward! How the cholesterol myths are kept alive edition by Uffe Ravnskov Professional Technical eBooks Reviews
If I should meet a person, that by doctors have been told to take pills against too high Cholesterol number, I will advice the person to read this, the latest book, from Uffe Ravnskov. Because this book is the newest concerning the biggest failure in medicine history, and contains nearly all about Cholesterol, compressed down into a small book.
In February 2 years ago, on my initiative, I and my wife went to the expensive RAM hospital, here I Chiang Mai, where all foreigners come, just to have a control of our health, most by measuring the blood. The result showed that my wife, here from Thailand, had the total of Cholesterol on 279, and mine only 196. And for that the doctor wanted my wife to start on pills, something like Statin, and besides other treatments in the hospital, to get the Cholesterol down under 200. And this treatment was started.
When I was in high school, back in the start of sixties, we in the news read and heard more and more about that it was bad to eat fat or eggs, and that this and having a Cholesterol number higher than 200 was the reason to that too many people died by heart attack. First years later we were told how the distribution between the god and the bad parts of the Cholesterol should be, I se that when looking in my old hospital journals.
But in Denmark, especially after my engineering education, I've received much science writings about, among other, that Asia is the place on Earth where people take most pills, and besides that the more pills that are taken the sooner the bacteria will chance, so that the pills by time will be ineffective. And besides nearly all pills have side effect, some very dad. So I started buying books concerning Cholesterol, and already after 2 month I advised my wife to stop taking these pills and going to the doctor, and telling why.
I've bought 10 books especially about Cholesterol (own more than 200 books concerning health, body, biology and so on) and January last year, as number 9, I bought Ravnskovs "Fat and Cholesterol are GOOD for you". After having read about it in the Danish news, where it came after the book was translated to Danish. I bought it, in English, and it was so good so that when in January this year informed me about the existence of the new book from Ravnskov, "Ignore the Awkward!" I immediately ordered it.
This book is so new and up to date concerning Cholesterol, and written by a person that in many years, as a neutral person, like a research person shall be, especially by reading reports, have been studying Cholesterol. And by that we get the most correct information concerning Cholesterol, and hereby learn that in nearly all cases having high Cholesterol is good. For example women having highest Cholesterol lives the longest. Quit opposite to what the doctors told my wife.
And besides one interesting thing mentioned, which I did not know, that I 1985 two persons got Nobel price for something concerning Cholesterol witch later turned out to be wrong..
And in the book Ravnskov also writes about Duane Gravelines story told in the book "Statin Drugs Side Effects", a good book that I bought last year.
And on the last side Ravnskov tells about the B (B12), C and D vitamins. Good information to the readers about these 3 vitamins which science trough time go on finding more and more necessary. In Denmark they talk about maybe this year to start putting D in the food, because 80 % of persons living I Denmark get to little sunshine, and thereby D vitamin.
And by Ravnskovs mention of the C vitamin I started thinking about Linus Paulings "Vitamin C the Common Cold and the Flu", which I bought in 1981, I remember how the medical industry, after that book, went against Linus Pauling, and even told people that they could die by getting too much C vitamin. Of course because the industry could not make patent on the C vitamin, and thereby earn much money. And this is exactly the same which is going on concerning Cholesterol, for which they earn billions of dollars each year, and don't want to loose the customers. Not taking care fore that people die by taking pills against Cholesterols.
I absolutely loved this book! It's an easy, relatively short read, and it was VERY well written as if the good doctor was a prosecuting attorney set out to win the case of his life. He left no stone unturned and he provides the information PERFECTLY so that one can clearly understand just how manipulated we are by the pharmaceutical industry. After reading this book I was able to have clear and strong conversations with peers regarding the use of statins and frankly, I'm convinced that because of this book, this man has saved MANY lives; and he's certainly put fewer at risk than what the pharmaceutical industry is doing.
While the title of the book may be "awkward" the book itself is full of detailed explanations on every major study that was supposedly done in support of drugs which lower cholesterol. He shows the holes in those studies as well as the studies which would improperly label "bad cholesterol".
Last, but not least, I valued the fact that this highly decorated doctor put his reputation on the line by standing up to this particular industry as well as the FDA in writing this book. I applaud anyone who is willing to spend the time to do so and it's evident that the only "monetary motive" this doctor can be accused of in writing this book is the income that he'll make from selling this book. That's a tiny drop in the bucket compared to what he paid to complete all of his research on this matter.
Dr. Ravnskov sounds a great warning for anyone accused of having high cholesterol, and provides much needed information for making informed decisions. It takes a lot of guts to stand for the truth when the world at large maligns your efforts. We revere men like Galileo, Luther, and Abe Lincoln who risked their livelihood and even their lives for their beliefs, but we still pillory those who go against the grain today. Dr. Ravnskov shows great moral courage in standing up to the drug companies and professional ridicule from other doctors for what he has deduced from the tests on cholesterol's connection to heart disease. He comes to the debate with excellent credentials and gives careful documentation and clear reasons for his stand. I understand the reluctance of researchers to destroy their career by publishing results contrary to the interest of those who fund their work, but the lives of innocent people hang in the balance here. Bravo, Dr. Ravnskov!
