Then go for it.

The Dr. Hyman Show

Put it in the water supply.

The Dr. Hyman Show
The Cardiologist Who Stopped Prescribing Statins Explains the Real Cause of Heart Attacks | Dr. Aseem Malhotra - ENCORE

But unfortunately, it does.

The Dr. Hyman Show
The Cardiologist Who Stopped Prescribing Statins Explains the Real Cause of Heart Attacks | Dr. Aseem Malhotra - ENCORE

And that's simply just not true.

The Dr. Hyman Show

So therefore, you then have to then talk about, you know, and some of the doctors come from a mindset, Mark, where they don't even, and this is a different school of thought, but I don't agree with it.

The Dr. Hyman Show
The Cardiologist Who Stopped Prescribing Statins Explains the Real Cause of Heart Attacks | Dr. Aseem Malhotra - ENCORE

It's not about agreement.

The Dr. Hyman Show

I mean, okay, maybe it's my opinion, is that they think that there should be an old school paternalistic practice of medicine.

The Dr. Hyman Show

Doctor knows best, patient do what I say.

The Dr. Hyman Show
The Cardiologist Who Stopped Prescribing Statins Explains the Real Cause of Heart Attacks | Dr. Aseem Malhotra - ENCORE

That's right.

The Dr. Hyman Show

It's not working so good anymore.

The Dr. Hyman Show

I'm about shared decision-making.

The Dr. Hyman Show
The Cardiologist Who Stopped Prescribing Statins Explains the Real Cause of Heart Attacks | Dr. Aseem Malhotra - ENCORE

I'm about explaining patients in a way that empowers them, that it's a more equal relationship.

The Dr. Hyman Show
The Cardiologist Who Stopped Prescribing Statins Explains the Real Cause of Heart Attacks | Dr. Aseem Malhotra - ENCORE

And that's fine.

The Dr. Hyman Show

Maybe it's a philosophical disagreement, but that's the stance I'm going to take.

The Dr. Hyman Show

And I'm prepared to die on that hill.

The Dr. Hyman Show
The Cardiologist Who Stopped Prescribing Statins Explains the Real Cause of Heart Attacks | Dr. Aseem Malhotra - ENCORE

Yeah, so I deal with those actually quite regularly.

The Dr. Hyman Show

So interestingly about the saturated fat, I think you're right, Mark.

The Dr. Hyman Show
The Cardiologist Who Stopped Prescribing Statins Explains the Real Cause of Heart Attacks | Dr. Aseem Malhotra - ENCORE

There are definitely a subgroup of people who have very high saturated fat intake

The Dr. Hyman Show

actually it does affect their inter-resistance or make their triglycerides go up.

And in fact, there was a paper done by, I think his name's Ronald Kraft, if I'm not wrong.
