I know this is extremely controversial for many people, especially those who devote their lives to protecting all animal life. Vegan diets are known to be deficient in essential vitamins and minerals, sometimes impossible to obtain from anywhere other than animal products.

In the 1940s, a group of farmers decided tried to fatten their pigs by feeding them coconut oil. To their surprise, the pigs lost weight and became more active.

Were they silly enough to try it again? Of course not. Pigs are fattened with grain and skim milk.

How long are we going to persist with something that doesn't work?

Statins rob your body's ability to fight inflammation. Once the dust settles and main stream medicine concedes that statins are over prescribed, I'm sure the big medical companies will start making pills that BOOST our cholesterol.

Cholesterol is the villain of the 20th century. In the 21st century, however, the evidence that vilifying the building-block of hormones and cell membranes has more negative than positive consequences is accumulating. The latest piece to the pro-cholesterol puzzle is a study from the Capital Medical...

Studies are showing that fat in the bloodstream is caused by carb consumption and not by fat consumption. This is important for anyone wanting to improve heart health!

New research links diabetes, heart disease risk to diet high in carbs, not fat

Reposted from Reversing Diabetes Group:
Somewhere between 10,000 and 53,000 people were tested on diets in which saturated fats were replaced by unsaturated vegetable oils (the tally depends on which trials are counted). However, the results did not turn out as hoped, and so researchers, either unable or unwilling to believe the outcomes, largely buried the data.

For instance, the leaders of one large NIH-funded study with findings unfavorable to the diet-heart hypothesis did not publish them for 16 years. When asked why, one reportedly replied that there was nothing wrong with the study; "We were just disappointed in the way it turned out."

Best-selling author Nina Teicholz and Dr Eric Thorn disagree with the recent American Heart Association Presidential Advisory on saturated fat and cardiovascular disease.
