Guest guest Posted December 11, 2001 Report Share Posted December 11, 2001 Evening Marianne, >Doctors and nurses have no excuse having all that inside information and of >course seeing it for themselves. What do you mean, " inside information " . I think most of them have access to less information than we do. Plus, their information is censored and distorted. For example, a friends wife was a working dietitian all her life. She died of a heart attack at work. And.... she did not drink, smoke, or curse. Somehow, her " inside information " failed her. She worked at a major hospital planning meals for other sick people. Of course I did not disagree with your post. I only have a slightly different view of the problems of the world.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Good Evening Wayne and Marianne, My reply is... I firmly believe that transfats are the major cause of heart attacks. It's really pathetic, but transfats are served even in hospitals!! Nutritionists have all the inside information, not necessarily the dieticians. That is my opinion anyway. :-) JoAnn JoAnn Guest joguest Friendsforhealthnaturally http://www.geocities.com/mrsjoguest/Fats.html Wayne Fugitt <wayne@f...> wrote: > Evening Marianne, > > >Doctors and nurses have no excuse having all that inside information and of > >course seeing it for themselves. > > What do you mean, " inside information " .

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Evening Joanne, >>hospitals!! Nutritionists have all the inside information, not >necessarily the dieticians. That is my opinion anyway. :-) Sounds like the fact of the matter to me. I always wondered why dietitians should not be replaced with nutritionist. Likely a real nutritionist could not stand the pressure and survive in a hospital situation. Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't it Dr. Mendelsohn who said that if you're sick, stay away from hospitals? He was less than impressed with hospital nutrition...

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Mindy, Hi! Evil and a very real fact of life. There aren't many hospitals that even link these transfats with cardiovascular disease. A few that specialize in alternative medicine come to mind. That's about it! I first heard of it through friends and Dr. Walter Willett of the Harvard Medical Center who manages to effectively link them with cardiovascular problems and thrombosis. Many don't have a clue that they are bad for you. Doesn't it irk you to see how " Benecol " and " Take Control " are advertised as healthy margarines! Nothing could be farther from the truth! And all these olive oil margarines that contain hydrogenated oils are a travesty. Old people eat them and think they're doing something great for their bodies. I would like to see their reaction if the public were confronted with the truth!! The aisles of our local groceries are loaded with the stuff. We need to take inventory of whose pockets we are stuffing when we ingest it!!! Not that I do at the moment! I thank God that I was presented with the truth a few years ago. They say that one doesn't go until it's their time,...I think that one can speed that up quite a bit by visiting the baked goods aisle of the local grocery!! :-) Now I stay in the outer aisles myself!! P.S. Have you ever heard of the way transfats are made? It's terrifying reading!!!
