Maroon’s anatomy: Low cholesterol linked to violence
Explores the relationship between occurrences of low cholesterol and episodes of violent behaviour.
This video explores the relationship between occurrences of low cholesterol and episodes of violent behaviour. It uses a study about Swedish inmates and their violent actions to show that low cholesterol and violent behaviour are linked. Interactions between a doctor and his patient result in a physical altercation, which is later discovered to be caused by low cholesterol. The intern doctors then present a detailed explanation of the science behind this relationship and attempt to show the mechanisms as to how low cholesterol really affects a person’s mood.
