Re:New cholesterol guidelines for converting healthy people into

patients

 

 

If cholesterol causes coronary heart disease and cancer, it should be easy to

prove. Virtually all oils and fats used for culinary purposes prior to the 1920s

were derived from animal sources, the major exceptions being olive, coconut and

palm kernel oils, the latter two of which are also high in cholesterol. If

cholesterol actually does caus CHD and cancer, medical records from the late

19th and early 20th century should show epidemic levels of of these diseases.

The fact is that they were EXTREMELY RARE. With the introduction of new

technology in the 1920s that allowed oil to be extracted from seeds that do not

easily give up their oil (corn for example), cases of CHD and cancer levels

began to accelerate, culminating in the epidemic levels of these diseases today.

The process of hydrogenation was also invented about the same time. Procter &

Gamble introduced their Crisco brand of hydrogenated cottonseed oil to the

market in 1922.

 

No only does historical data fail to prove the Lipid Hypothesis, it totally

demolishes it! The large corporations that push the Lipid Hypothesis certainly

don't let facts stand in their way when it comes to propaganda that sells their

frankenoils though. Although the Framingham study which the Ravnskov article

mentions also demolished it, the government and manufacturers just put their own

spin on the study, claiming that it proved the hypothesis. Sounds like something

out of Alice in Wanderland! (Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee?)

Why would someone pay $1.89 for a bottle of Evian water?
