The Cholesterol Code, a feature-length documentary investigating the link between cholesterol and heart health will be available on Amazon Video starting April 17, 2026.
Part investigative thriller, part personal journey, The Cholesterol Code follows Dave Feldman, a software engineer from Las Vegas, Nevada, whose unexpectedly high cholesterol results after adopting a low carb diet sparked a worldwide scientific inquiry. What began as a personal experiment evolved into a research study that challenges conventional thinking on cardiovascular risk and metabolic health.
The Cholesterol Code is more than a documentary, it’s a high-stakes David-versus-Goliath battle for truth. The film probes whether modern medicine’s fear of cholesterol is shaped more by long-held dogma than by science, and whether low-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets–criticized for decades by the medical establishment–may actually hold the key to reversing chronic disease.
Driven by curiosity and grounded in science, the film follows Dave and a team of researchers through a landmark research study using high-resolution heart imaging. The film features stories of recovery from physical and mental health conditions induced by simple dietary changes, and raises a daring question: Have we been fighting the wrong enemy all along? The Cholesterol Code is a story for anyone who’s ever questioned the medical status quo—and wondered if the truth might be more complex than we’ve been led to believe.
How to Watch: Starting April 17, audiences can screen The Cholesterol Code on Amazon, YouTube Movies and Google Play.
