Heart Frauds: Uncovering the Biggest Health Scam in History (Paperback)

by Charles T. McGee at Amazon or other booksellers - maybe at your public

library as well.

 

Dr. McGee has written a very informative book on the subject. Contrary to what

the public is told; cardiovascular disease has rapidly declined over the past

decades. And, the reduction in mortality is not due to improvement in medical

technology but simply a boost in the public's intake of vitamin supplements

including anti-oxidants such as vit. A, C, and E.

 

Dr. McGee is not a conspiracy theorist, but a well-established doctor who is

more respectful of the scientific method than the medical establishment. He

supports every single statement with scientific studies. At the end of the book,

he discloses an excellent bibliography with a summary of the major studies he

refers to in order to advance his arguments.

 

In the author's mind, the whole focus on cholesterol is misguided. Studies

have not found a significant link between cholesterol and heart disease. He

states that one should focus instead on oxidation by avoiding foods that contain

oxidized fats or trans fats, taking anti-oxidant vitamin supplements, and eating

fresh fruits and vegetables. Also, eating eggs is just fine. No study has shown

any link between egg consumption and heart disease.

 

I have found raising your own chickens is how you get good eggs. If neighbors

object to noise get rid of rooster.

The Cholesterol Myths : Exposing the Fallacy that Saturated Fat and

Cholesterol Cause Heart Disease by Uffe Ravnskov

 

PS the cholesterol numbers came from a study done at a New York hospital with

elderly Jewish men.

If you are of north European extraction you may genetically run 100 higher and

trying to lower it to Mediterranean levels do yourself a great disservice.

 

I found walking a mile a day without stopping and avoiding sugar gave me

better health.
