Dave Feldman has made a number of claims about the relationship between LDL cholesterol and the risk of cardiovascular disease and death that are not supported by evidence. He has recently flamboyantly taken to offering money to anyone who could show that LDL cholesterol increases the risk of death in people who were otherwise healthy: who have high LDL but low triglycerides and high HDL. The so-called lipid triad. Deirdre Tobias, a professor at Harvard, took him up on this challenge using the latest methods. Watch this video to see how Dr. Tobias put Dave's claims to rest--once and for all.
