Might be worth seeing video arteries-we are what we eat!

Casey I know you will love this one and why it is important as to diet and nutrition etc.  It is a short video, they say alot of patients die from heart disease, stroke and artery issues, seeing is believing, almost TMI (lol)

This video made me think. It made me think about the Bacon Cheeseburger and fried onion rings i had for dinner last night.
Probably lots of that gunk in me, maybe too late. But it made me think. And i emailed the link to my kids. Thanks for posting.

Yeah, Zufus, I'll let you know how it goes. The above linked movie is kind of shocking, but the Pauling devotees contend that this is not a "health" issue, per se, rather it's a correct treatment and diet issue. Apparently there's been a great deal of clinical study done about Vitamin C and some with L-lysine too and still more finding that plaque build up is the body's response for repairing damage due to dietary deficiencies. There's a comparison to a garden hose that's contantly crimped in the same spot... eventually it ruptures if there's not repairs made. The analogy is that the body deposits this plaque to repair the "hose" to keep it from rupturing.

There are a couple sites like "trackyourplaque" and a vitamin C site that have some people doing things, the Pauling Therapy among others, in an effort to reverse arteriosclerosis. It's pretty interesting stuff. And it's pretty interesting too that even with the wide spread use of statins, heart disease still is the number one killer of Americans.

See Red Yeast Rice... the drug companies are pi$$ed off that this stuff works and not only does it work, IT'S THE SAME COMPOUND AS IN THE STATIN! These nitwits spent time and ridiculous amounts of money "creating" something that already exists in nature.

From all I've read lately, particularly about some of the fats that are in general use now, as opposed to lard, schmaltz, and saturated oils like coconut and palm of yesteryear use, are actually worse for you. Even good old butter is better than all that oil formulated cr@p like margarine and can't believe it's not butter. And don't get me started on trans-fats.

And the thing that compounds these issues is sugar and processed wheat products. If you look at some of these "alternative" MD's, they're saying that the use of sugars in every packaged/processed good, along with the way that wheat has been changed to provide bigger yields, and the decades long fear of high cholesterol with the trans-fat and lack of saturated fats has had dire effects. Obesity, heart and cardio-vascular disease, and diabetes... seriously, I'm not big on conspiracies, but these dots connect pretty well.

...and there are also some links to certain kinds of cancer from the use of all of the above AND the remedies that traditional medicine provides... See GERD and stomach cancer.
