Summary:

What if the basic premise of the connection between cholestrol and heart disease is wrong? This film argues that the link is tenuous and persists because of results from bad science, entrenched interests, and pharmaceutical profits. Authoritative and engaging experts investigate the cholesterol hypothesis with startling results.
