Big Money vs Your Health

Why Health Authorities, Drug Companies and Diet 'Gurus' Do NOT Want

You To Listen To This Man!

 

Anthony Colpo knows that most of what passes for accepted diet and

health wisdom is complete nonsense--and he's got the research to back

up his claims!

 

Did you know that:

 

-There has not been a single tightly-controlled clinical trial that

has produced any reduction in CHD mortality that can honestly be

attributed to saturated fat restriction or cholesterol-lowering?

 

-Long-term follow-up studies have shown that those with the lowest

cholesterol levels tend to live the shortest lives?

 

-So-called heart-healthy polyunsaturated vegetable oils have been

linked to cancer and heart disease?

 

-Cholesterol-lowering drugs have not been shown to provide any clear

longevity benefit to women, the elderly, or men free of existing heart

disease?

 

-In Japan, where low-fat diets supposedly protect people from

cardiovascular disease, it is actually those who eat the most

saturated fat that have the lowest rates of stroke?

 

-There is no clinical evidence that eating more whole-grains will

reduce your risk of heart disease or colon cancer?

 

-Vegetarians do not live longer than people eating a typical mixed

diet?

 

-Low fat diets, rather than boosting health, actually restrict your

intake of important fat-soluble vitamins and essential fatty acids?

 

-Most of the information disseminated by health authorities today is

designed not to protect your health, but to benefit vested financial

interests?

 

Outrageous claims, you say? Every assertion made above is backed by

solid evidence published in the world's most prestigious medical and

dietetic journals. You haven't been told about this conflicting

evidence because the extremely powerful food and drug industries, and

the supposedly 'impartial' and 'prestigious' health organizations they

finance, don't want you to know about it! The cold, hard truth is that

their continued profitability is of far more concern to them than your

health! An enlightened consumer, as opposed to a brainwashed one, is

the last thing they want! This is why the food and drug industries

spend millions of dollars each year lobbying government agencies and

'donating' money to private health organizations--such activity

ensures that official guidelines continue to cast their products in

the most favorable possible light.

 

Get Enlightened!

 

TheOmnivore gives you the plain, scientifically-validated facts...and

apologizes to no-one for doing so!

 

Most of what you've been told about health and nutrition is plain

WRONG!

 

The medical and health establishment would have you believe that the

use of low-fat foods, cholesterol-lowering regimens, avoidance of

sunshine, diets high in cereal products, and the use of Big Pharma's

" wonder drugs " are the keys to longevity and good health. However,

modern society's biggest killers--degenerative ailments such as heart

disease, cancer, diabetes, and obesity--are NOT caused by a failure to

implement any of the aforementioned strategies.

 

They are caused in large part by the modern abandonment of the dietary

and lifestyle habits that human beings evolved on. For all but the

last 10,000 years of its entire 2.4 million-year history, the human

species consumed a hunter-gatherer diet comprised of fresh meats,

fruits, berries, nuts and non-cereal vegetation.

 

Unlike today's sedentary lifestyles, the very nature of Stone Age

existence necessitated a high level of physical activity. Paleolithic

humans were not exposed to the myriad of unnatural stresses

experienced by residents of industrialized societies, and their sleep

patterns were in synch with nature's light-dark cycle. Those who lived

in sunny climates received plenty of vitamin D-boosting sunshine,

while those who lived in colder climates met their needs for this

all-important substance by eating fatty vitamin D-rich animal foods.

 

Paleolithic humans did not use alcohol, cigarettes, nor illicit drugs.

 

It is not possible for us to return to the Stone Age, nor would most

of us want to. Virtually all of us, however, can make relatively

simple modifications to our diets and lifestyles that reflect the

evolutionary requirements of our genome. The purpose of this web site

is to help you rediscover what those requirements are, and to dispel

many of the scientifically untenable myths perpetuated by modern-day

health " experts " .

 

 

It's sad, but much of the information we receive through the popular

media nowadays is the product of greed, politics, and plain old

ignorance. TheOmnivore will help you discover the truth about:

 

Low-carbohydrate diets

Saturated fat and cholesterol

Paleolithic Diets

Protein

Diabetes

Cereal grains

Soy

Omega-3 fats

Vegetarianism

Cholesterol-lowering drugs

Health authorities

Drug Companies

-and more!
