Preventing Coronary Artery Disease by Lowering Cholesterol Levels -- by Dr. Daniel Steinberg
[Karl Note: I have referenced Dr. Steinberg in the main article with these comments:
One of these master planners was Dr. Daniel Steinberg. Dr. Steinberg could be called the father of death by cholesterol lies. Click here for a recent claim by him. But, he has also been whitewashed -- made to look respectable. Click here to read an interview in which he, now, endorses vitamins as a preventive for heart disease. The whitewasher should have known better. But, for a more candid view of Dr. Steinberg's real position, click here. I covered Dr. Steinberg, and the entire cholesterol lie in Chapter Five of my Book -- beware there is some heavy stuff here.
Dr. Steinberg was a physician who worked on cholesterol drug research at the University of California at San Diego. He was the Chairman of the Conference and cut off any speaker who criticized the lie that was being launched. He may wish to forget this, or hide it, but those who were there will remember. This "conference" was NOT administered in the way prescribed by the rules!
After this had been published for just a few weeks I received this message from one of his apologists:
Dear Karl,
I was associated with Steinberg about 9 years back and was one of the key players of oxidation hypothesis of atherosclerosis.I respect your opinion but you are misrepresenting Steinber's views and twisting literature.
There is even greater reason now than before to believe that cholesterol in the diet plays a major role in atheroscelrsis.
I don't know what you gain by slandering and misrepresenting scores of research.
By your writing you are also insulting scientists like me who had nothing to gain by any of the drugs or pharmaceutical industries. Till to date, I had never taken a dime from pharmaceutical industries for my research and I truely believe based on my work that dietary cholesterol plays a major role.
Thomas Moore is not a scientifically informed person; if you are just after sensationalism rather than "saving" the millions from Steinberg and Grundy, you will start being fair and stop the nonsensical statements.

Preventing Coronary Artery Disease by Lowering Cholesterol Levels Fifty Years From Bench to Bedside  Daniel
Steinberg, MD, PhD; Antonio M. Gotto, Jr,
MD, DPhil In the more than 50 years since the founding of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and the American Heart Association, medical science has moved from an era in which hypercholesterolemia, as it is now defined, was not believed to be abnormal to one in which controlling hypercholesterolemia is known to reduce not only coronary artery disease morbidity and mortality but also total mortality. While the efforts and successes of many researchers involved in this evolution are impressive, atherosclerosis is still a major cause of death and disability in many developed nations, mostly in the form of myocardial infarction and stroke, and is an increasing cause of morbidity and mortality in developing nations. Many questions about the detailed pathogenesis of the disease remain. Elucidating the roles of high-density lipoprotein, other lipoproteins, and homocysteine, as well as the roles of cytokines and growth factors, will permit better understanding and treatment of atherosclerosis. With continuing support for research and encouragement of physicians and patients to follow recommended preventive regimens, further progress can be made against this major cause of death. JAMA. 1999;282:2043-2050
Financial Disclosure: Dr Gotto is a consultant or speaker with Parke-Davis, Pfizer Inc, Bayer, SmithKline Beecham, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Merck & Co, and Novartis Pharmaceuticals.
