The medical establishment, pharmaceutical companies. . . all kinds of people believe and teach cholesterol causes heart diesease.
Along with that, they preach this gospel: “If you have high cholesterol, you need to be on a statin drug and low-fat diet.” Trying to treat heart disease naturally is considered heresy.
Well, sure it is. Drug companies make big bucks off people taking statin drugs.
It’s refreshing to see a doctor who is trying to get the word out that statins are NOT the answer:
From Dr. Dwight Lundell. . .
The Cholesterol Theory– A Tragedy To Health
We have done a disservice to the American people and it is time to right the wrong. Let me begin by saying quite emphatically based on scientific fact cholesterol does not cause heart diseaseThe good news is, inflammation is treatable naturally.
The theory began in 1948 with the Framingham Study, a study that was responsible for good information until 1961 when those early researchers focused on cholesterol and tunnel vision set in. From then on, cholesterol was deemed evil rather than the vital substance it is to life.
Over the course of 25 years and 5,000 heart surgeries, I’d often look at a patient on my table and wonder why he (or she) was there. His cholesterol was in check, he was not obese, did not smoke and in fact, had none of the typical risk factors associated with heart disease
I repaired his heart knowing well statistics were high he would be back for surgery again within 10 years with his cholesterol still in check.
Over 25% of the population takes statin medications.
Now there’s a feverish rush to prescribe statin medication preventatively to otherwise healthy people. If statins prevented heart disease, why has heart disease soared year after year and is the number one taker of human life?
Just that fact alone should have everyone questioning the validity of the cholesterol theory and taking statin medications.
Cholesterol does not cause heart disease – inflammation in the arteries does.
What is inflammation and where is it coming from?
The answer to that question is both tragic and sad.The very dietary recommendations born of the cholesterol theory of no-fat and low fat foods cause inflammation.
Polyunsaturated Omega-6 oils; packaged and processed foods created for shelf life and not long life; sugars and simple carbohydrates create inflammation. This is the cause of an epidemic of heart disease, obesity and other chronic illnesses.
Do you have unhealthy levels of inflammation? If you have been eating the typical American diet with the typical American lifestyle, more than likely yes.
Dr. Lundell has written a book, “The Great Cholesterol Lie” which is one of the most important books written since the cholesterol theory began in 1948. It talks about heart disease and the inflammation running amok throughout your body, cause by the dietary recommendations born of the no fat, low-fat diet foods theory which is now causing an epidemic of heart disease and inflammation.
Now science knows inflammation is linked to obesity from the very foods created from this theory that were supposed to make us slim and trim. Too bad they didn’t figure this out sooner, huh?
Dr. Lundell tells it like it is and shows you how to heal your heart and health naturally without statin medications.
I recommend you grab a copy of this book, “The Great Cholesterol Lie”.
I think you’ll find it an amazingly worthwhile book. It’s now wonder it’s selling like crazy in over 16 countries.
