Our Crazy CHOLESTEROL Obsession with Dr Ross Walker

“Your cholesterol is high.” It’s a phrase millions hear each year—often followed by a statin prescription and little else. But with statins now the most prescribed drugs on the planet, why is heart disease still the world’s #1 killer? And why are we not talking about the bigger picture? In this hard-hitting episode, we’re joined by Dr. Ross Walker, one of Australia’s leading voices in preventive cardiology, to challenge the mainstream narrative—and ask the questions that could save lives. We explore:  The truth behind cholesterol—what it is, what it isn’t, and why one number shouldn't define your risk. Statins: miracle drug or misunderstood medicine? Who really benefits, and at what cost? The role of genetics—including the common but underdiagnosed condition, Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH). Visit the DNA Screen Project to learn more: https://dnascreen.monash.edu/  Why prevention struggles to compete with Big Pharma—and what needs to change. The 30-Day Heart Health Plan every listener should hear, with Dr. Walker’s actionable advice on food, movement, stress, and testing. This episode is not anti-medication—it’s pro-information. Because your heart health deserves more than a prescription. 🎧 Listen now to rethink what you’ve been told, and what you’ve accepted. Your life—or the life of someone you love—may depend on it.

Aging. Everyone’s doing it, right? And it’s a hell of a lot better than the alternative. So why is it so often portrayed as something for women to fear and fight, rather than embrace and celebrate? The Aging Project is proud to present this trail-blazing podcast series that flips the bird to the notion that women in their forties and above should be either slowly fading into the background, or in a constant battle to look younger. We want to show you how we can all choose to age fabulously and without apology, and to own our age with pride - with great health, style and vitality. Hosted by Shelley Craft, the first season of The Aging Project podcast features candid, no-holds-barred interviews with twelve of the world’s leading and most inspiring minds in the field of aging well. Join Shelley as she discovers how everything from nutrition to meditation, style to gut health (and lots more!), can not only positively impact our journey into middle-life and beyond, but help make it the best time of our lives. We’re all in this together, ladies - let’s learn how to do it WELL.
