He knows the root cause of the cholesterol problem is not the cholesterol itself, but the arteries that harden as we age and make the passage tougher. He has natural methods for helping the body take care of the cholesterol the way it did when we were younger.

Again, do your own research and make your own conclusion. There is a wealth of info out there. I fully admit I am not a Big Pharma fan, I think they have ruined Western medicine because we no longer look for cures, just pills to mask and cover what is really ailing us.
Ah, too bad. Pauling was not a medical man nor trained and experienced in epidemiological studies. His vitamin C theories were debunked a very long time ago. There are still a few people out there on the internet trying to make money off those theories, but that's it.

There is some evidence that ordinary doses of vitamin C, 500-1000mg, reduce cholesterol a small amount. More than that seems to make it worse.

And of course Linus and his wife died of cancer.
