...thanks again ...debbie
How old are you? How high is your cholesterol? In older women higher
cholesterol levels are very protective -- to a point.
I found that info at http://www.mercola.com, like Zoe says.
Heart disease is due to the intake of too much
sugar/starch/carbohydrate. We've been lied to - big time!
The Great Cholesterol Con (book) by Anthony Colpo
http://www.thegreatcholesterolcon.com/ [quote]
The shocking, sordid tale of the cholesterol scam - a mind-boggling
saga of ignorance, corruption, deceit and greed - is a subject worthy
of an entire book! So that's exactly what I've done; after years of
research, I've finally put together The Great Cholesterol Con: Why
Everything You've Been Told About Cholesterol, Diet and Heart Disease
is Wrong!
* A single disgruntled researcher, who conducted some of the
sloppiest and most shamelessly biased research ever seen, was largely
responsible for launching the anti-animal fat/anti-cholesterol mania
as we know it today!
* The rise in coronary heart disease that occurred during the
twentieth century had nothing whatsoever to do with saturated fat intake!
* Study after study has shown that people with so-called
'healthy' low cholesterol levels actually live shorter lives!
* Upon closer scrutiny, the very studies that have formed the
cornerstone of the anti-cholesterol argument actually show that
cholesterol and saturated fat are not harmful!
* Numerous populations consuming high saturated fat diets have
been documented to enjoy very low rates of heart disease!
* Over fifty years' worth of clinical dietary intervention trials
have completely failed to show any mortality benefit among those
following saturated fat-restricted diets - in fact, several of these
studies showed higher death rates among those assigned to diets low
in saturated fats!
* Many dietary recommendations made by 'experts' to reduce heart
disease have actually been shown in animal and human studies to
increase heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity!
* The primary force behind the anti-cholesterol paradigm is not
public health, but greed! Drug companies, food companies, the medical
profession, and health organizations all make billions in dollars of
profit from the cholesterol theory!
