Nick Norwitz Has Total Cholesterol of 700 — So Why Zero Plaque? – TFP #030 | Nick Norwitz MD PhD

In this episode of The Feldman Protocol, can living with an LDL of 700 for seven years actually leave your arteries plaque-free? Nick Norwitz (MD PhD) makes the case that the conventional cholesterol narrative is far more complicated than mainstream medicine admits, while Dave and Nick also cover the paternalistic medical system, statin side effects in women, Nick's surprising decision to take a cholesterol-lowering drug, and the recent Peter Attia rebuttal to lean mass hypersponder research.
