Description

Cholesterol was the first measurable biological marker of heart disease discovered in medical research. Biomedical research became obsessed with cholesterol. In fact, studies of cholesterol’s role in disease have garnered 13 Nobel Prizes. This episode touches on what we know about cholesterol, what we don’t know, and the mythology that has been built around it and around the drugs that treat excess amounts of cholesterol.
