    Author: Ravnskov U.
    Journal: J Clin Epidemiol; 2002 Nov; 55(11):1057-63. PubMed ID: 12507667.
    Abstract:
    An almost endless number of observations and experiments have effectively falsified the hypothesis that dietary cholesterol and fats, and a high cholesterol level play a role in the causation of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. The hypothesis is maintained because allegedly supportive, but insignificant findings, are inflated, and because most contradictory results are misinterpreted, misquoted or ignored.
