On the show Justin will explain the truth about cholestrol and the Statin drugs that many people take to combat this condition. In 2007, Justin set out to write a book about common nutritional myths. At? this time, he was already aware of the issues surrounding cholesterol and? planned to devote one chapter of his book to this subject. However, after?looking into the subject in more detail, he was shocked to find just how?much evidence, contrary to the diet-heart hypothesis, existed. The natural?progression was to base his whole book on this subject.??Justin's book $29 Billion Reasons to Lie About Cholesterol was published?in 2009, and the following year, he started the preliminary work on the?documentary film Statin Nation.?? Before his career as a health practitioner, Justin obtained a degree in?engineering.
