The Statin Lie: How Big Pharma Corrupted Science

Dr. Aseem Malhotra exposes the shocking systemic corruption that dictates which medicines we are prescribed. In this powerful clip, he reveals how the journey from scientific discovery to the pharmacy shelf is rigged by commercial interests, leading to exaggerated benefits and hidden side effects for millions of patients.

We trust that the drugs we take are approved based on solid, independent evidence. But what if the entire system is broken from the start? Dr. Malhotra explains how pharmaceutical companies, driven by a legal obligation to shareholder profit—not patient health—design clinical trials to guarantee favorable outcomes.

Discover how:

Drug trials are engineered before they even begin to bias the results.

Regulatory agencies approve medications without scrutinizing the raw data—relying instead on summaries from the drug companies themselves.

Prestigious universities and researchers, receiving hundreds of millions in funding, operate with an inherent conflict of interest.

The case of statins, one of the world's most prescribed drugs, reveals a vast gap between published claims and real-world patient experiences.

This isn't a conspiracy theory. It's a documented flaw at the heart of modern medicine. Learn why the safety and benefits of drugs are "invariably grossly exaggerated" and what this means for your health.
