The Clot Thickens: The enduring mystery of heart disease

Product Information

I’ve been thinking about starting a podcast of my own for a while now, where I talk to the most interesting and original thinkers in health and medicine. I listen to a lot of medical and health science podcasts, and there are some that are truly excellent, such as The Drive with Peter Attia, Ivor Cummins’ Fat Emperor podcast, and the Diet Doctor podcast with Bret Scher, but they’re still far too few to keep me satisfied. There are of course many more, often organized by the big medical journals themselves, which are also ok, but they shy away from interviewing the people with really groundbreaking things to say, because those things often fall outside of the current dominant dogmas. And as we know, the big medical journals are all about maintaining the status quo. It was only when I was directed to return to process, that I came to fully recognise her genius – and the genius of others. I only hope that this book will help to raise her status up to where it belongs. Along with Rokitansky, Duguid, Ross and all those who pursued the blood clotting route over the decades, nay, centuries now. the only way people can get immunity to a cold/other virus/bacteria is by exposure. The slight exposure from someone else’s aerosol triggers an immune response. Collectively, these three movements have caused untold iatrogenic harm and seriously harmed public health in the past century. Truly diabolical work by Big Pharma and the Industrial Food Complex, an entity I have collectively named the Medical-Pharmaceutical-Agricultural-Complex (#MPAC).

Many years ago, the French mathematician and science philosopher Henri Poincaré stated the following, which I find describes the situation almost perfectly. ‘Science is built of facts, as a house is with stone. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house.’ It might explain why sportsmen are keeling over, as they probably have larger blood vessels to feed the oxygen hungry muscles”.I’m beginning to wonder about the entire voting process. It’s the people who count the votes who matter. If you play around with the calculator, changing the cholesterol level makes very little difference to the patient’s risk, while for example, increasing the blood pressure or changing the smoking status, makes a big difference. It’s very obvious they’ve never actually tried this. The designers of the calculator could see that cholesterol made little difference, which is at least honest. Nice to know my BMI is right in the sweet spot. I shall have lamb chops with a glass of red this evening and try to be happy. As Shakespeare’s Henry V said; “We few, we happy few . . .” – I’ve done the ‘few’ bit, but how can I get to ‘happy’? They tell me that when I own nothing I will be happy, but I’m not convinced yet. Since I first read your musings about clotting being the root cause of cardiovascular disease, it just seemed right.

The Clot Thickens - The Enduring Mystery of Heart Disease

deaths in placebo arm, two of which were covid-related…this gives us the non-covid baseline of 15 deaths per 22,000 (range is likely 14-16) hi again Dr K – just following up on insulin… I wonder if the primary function of insulin being to transport glucose into cells means that it has some kind of power to weaken cell walls which might explain why it might be damaging.This week we are looking at two words which may be confused by learners of English: produce and product. Improve your English with Collins. What are your thoughts on this? A strong inverse relationship between heart disease and haemophilia would support your hypothesis. A couple of weeks age I asked you a couple of questions about Lp(a), and you, very reasonable suggested my questions revealed that I had not read your latest book. I am now at Chapter 2, and I realise my questions were not that bright, and what I learned is very interesting. A regular Vit C taker for at least forty years, I am hoping it has protected me up til now.

I listened to them with great interest. I particularly enjoyed the one about bones as I found the information absolutely absorbing. Each one of the Podcasts slightly different because of the guest/ guests input . Bought it! I am also following your advice on vits etc re the new big C. Etc etc. Jenny Ward in Louth, Lincs. It’s an old folks’ town where a lot of the old folks are wearing masks in the street. I sometimes cough when I pass them, just to watch them shrink away. p20 – Dr K quote the BMJ article saying “evidence from randomized trials did not support the intro of dietary guidelines..” but this is talking about cutting saturated fat. (Personal note – I am convinced on this – saturated fat satiates is delicious and healthy and you can’t really cut carbs without increasing it).
