This
is a two hour long presentation with the first speaker spends an hour.
Though the I was transfixed, I realise that many have neither the time
nor the inclination to sit down for an hour to watch it.
"Killing for profit"
The first hour mainly focusing on the words of Aseem Malhotra, and interventional cardiology specialist of many years standing, who is sharing what he has learned in his career.

If you want to simply jump to
a point of interest, here the ones
which I found highly informative:
14th minute, breast screening
16th minute, statins/stroke reduction
19th minute, statins case history
32nd minute, criminal activity
34 beta-blocker drugs. Responsible for 800,000 excess deaths
Drug companies spend twice as much on marketing as they do on drug development.
"Most doctors want to do the right thing,
but they are misinformed".
37th minute ...
Richard Smith, former editor of the British Medical Journal
Spoke to an event with lots of academics,
where he asked the audience,
"How many of you are aware
of research misconduct in your institution?',
he said a about a third to a half put their hand up."
He said, "How many of you reported it?"
They all put their hand down.
The UK is the Fat Man of Europe.
More than 60% are overweight or obese.
44th minute
Sugar. References to Lustig.
60th minute
he goes onto ultra-processed food.
1:01:00
Overtreatment by medication.
Reckoned to be the third most common
cause of death after heart disease and cancer.
(IMO, if we take death by chemo into account,
prescription medicine is the
most common cause of death.)
He wrote a book called the Pioppi Diet,
named after a village he studied in Italy.
There is a section 'Myth Busting':
"Eating fat does not make you fat,
Saturated fat does not clog arteries.
Cholesterol can be good for you
(and if you're over 50 "bad cholesterol
Protects you from an early death).
Physical activity is a myth (you
can't outrun a bad diet)
Dietary change is more powerful than any
drug for preventing and treating heart
disease and type 2 diabetes (which is
reversible) and effects/benefits are
immediate."
1:09:00
A heart disease quiz,
covering stents, aspirin and statins.
"Lifestyle changes are more powerful
than any drug, with no side-effects."
His final statement is in
acknowledgement of
Hans Christiaan Barnard
the great Suth African
heart transplant pioneer:
"I have saved the lives of 150 people
with heart transplants. If I had focused
on preventive medicine earlier,
I would have saved 150 million."
