So the episode being released today is my episode with Malcolm Kendrick.

About this guest -

Dr Malcolm Kendrick is a Scottish doctor, author, speaker and sceptic.

Malcolm, a recently retired family doctor, has always harboured a healthy dose of scepticism towards the conventional reasons for heart disease and using Statins to reduce cholesterol.

Malcolm has written the following books: The Great Cholesterol Con, Doctoring Data, and his most recent, The Clot Thickens.

I had an absolutely fascinating chat with Malcolm, where we tackled everything from his win to politicians quirks to the complexities of medical science. We started with a bit of humour because serious topics sometimes need a touch of light heartedness to make them more palatable. Malcolm shared his candid views on the lack of authenticity among politicians and how the civil service often pulls the real strings behind the scenes.

Shifting gears, we dove into medicine and public health, especially the murky world of medical publishing. It is shocking how much of it is profit driven and influenced by pharmaceutical companies. Malcolm has strong reservations about the cholesterol hypothesis, and we unpacked that in detail. Rather than blaming cholesterol outright, he emphasised looking at processes such as blood clot formation and healing mechanisms. Did you know arterial plaques are essentially remnants of blood clots? That was new to me.

We also discussed statins, their potential benefits but also their side effects, such as blocking nutrients like Coenzyme Q ten. Malcolm raised some eyebrow raising points about over medication and how research often appears skewed by the interests of big pharma. It is maddening to think how clinical trial data can be manipulated, and yet the FDA approves the vast majority of drugs anyway. What does that say about regulatory oversight?

Then there is the personal cost of speaking out. Malcolm shared how challenging it is for professionals to raise ethical concerns without risking their careers. It really hit home how much reform is needed, not only in healthcare practices but in the entire system.

We rounded off the conversation by stressing the importance of maintaining proportion, whether in medical treatments, nutrition, or public health debates. There is no magic bullet for cardiovascular health, but understanding the body’s processes and taking a holistic approach makes all the difference.

This was a deeply engaging conversation that had me reflecting on many aspects of healthcare, ethics, and the influence of money on modern medicine. Malcolm’s insights are both eye opening and inspiring. If you are curious about the big picture questions in health and politics, this episode is definitely for you.

Much love

Doc Malik

What I Offer

In a world of rushed 7-minute consultations and endless referrals, I offer you something rare: time, context, and clear guidance.

As your health advocate, I can help you:

  • Understand your diagnosis and decode medical jargon

  • Decide who to see: GP, specialist, osteopath, physio, accupuntcurist, homeopath etc?

  • Break down treatment plans in plain, easy to understand non jargon English

  • Prepare for surgery, understand your risks, obtain true informed consent, and optimise yourself pre-op

  • Recover from surgery, advise you how to heal faster and quicker and minimise post-op complications

  • Manage chronic illness with lifestyle, mindset, and dietary changes

  • Explore holistic options that complement conventional care

  • Implement lifestyle changes like fasting, stress reduction, or movement

  • Ask better questions, and get real answers

  • Get an unbiased second opinion


Why This Matters

Informed patients make better decisions. But today, so many are left confused, rushed, and disempowered. They leave consultations with more questions than answers, unsure who to trust or where to turn next.

I’m here to change that.

I’m not offering diagnosis or treatment, I’m offering clarity, confidence, and conversation. I’ll walk beside you, explain what’s going on in your body, help you explore your options, and support you in taking back control of your health.


⚠️ A Quick Note

I’m no longer registered with the GMC. This means I don’t diagnose or treat medical conditions. My work is purely educational and advisory, designed to help you get the most out of the formal healthcare system — not replace it.


Ready to Take Control?

If you're navigating a health concern, preparing for a big decision, or simply want to feel more confident in your path forward, I’d love to support you.

With clarity and care,

  3. Attract More Guests & Opportunities – High engagement makes it easier to bring on bigger, more influential guests.

  4. Strengthen the Community – More listeners mean more discussions, shared learning, and a stronger movement.
