Four Reasons to Say No To Crestor
Image via Wikipedia Four Reasons to Say No To CrestorThere's been a deep lying suspicion that a deliberate push to get each and every American hooked on drugs, while at the same time bankrupting them, exists among Big Pharma, the U.S. government and the popular media. But now, a new study confirms this suspicion as fact. It's the JUPITER study.
JUPITER stands for Justification for the Use of Statins in Prevention: an Intervention Trial Evaluating Rosuvastatin. It's not a clinical trial. It's a rouse to promote drugs as vitamins. Dr. Timothy J. Gardner, president of the American Heart Association, was so excited by it that he insisted, "this one [JUPITER] is pretty clearly a winner for statin therapy."
The New York Times gave us the infomercial, scripted response of, "Taking the statin Crestor, also known as rosuvastatin, slashed the risk of heart attack by more than half according to the JUPITER results." But if you believe this, then you're already on too many drugs.
Big Pharma money can be intoxicating. Like a frat boy with beer goggles, few health professionals or popular media outlets could see the ugly truth. Four important points of the JUPITER rouse were missed, which serve as four reasons to avoid Crestor.
The media failed to mention that Crestor makers - AstraZeneca - funded the study. When a company pays for a study, they pay for the interpretation of results, which always involves statistical trickery.
Most of us learned this with the heartattack inducing, pain killer Vioxx. Touted as the safest NSAID of all time, it proved to be the deadliest once unleashed with the rubber stamp approval of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) - it snuffed out an estimated 40,000 lives, fast. Its' wake of destruction still resonates within Americans, but apparently not with the media.
The media failed to mention the statistical trickery at work. Cardiovascular events were reduced by an absolute, paltry 0.9% with Crestor use. Using a few tricks of the statistics trade, this bland number was converted into the more lucrative, "relative risk reduction" of 53%. This trickery happens so fast, it's like watching magician David Blaine pull his heart out of his chest. You don't know if it's real or just a cheap magic trick. Dr. Mark Hlatky of Stanford shows that it's just a trick.
Commenting on the trickery, he told the New England Journal of Medicine that, "absolute differences in risk are more clinically important than relative reductions in risk in deciding whether to recommend drug therapy, since the absolute benefits of treatment must be large enough to justify the associated risks and costs." But, using statistical sleight of hand helps AstraZeneca make some serious cash.
The media failed to mention that it would cost bookoo bucks to follow JUPITER's recommended Crestor protocol. The drug giant stands to pocket an estimated $500,000 per patient, courtesy of their insurance company, if the drug is used as recommended by the study - over a patient's lifetime.
And finally, the media failed to mention that Crestor users risk the particularly, nasty side effect of liver failure, rhabdomyolysis, diabetes and more. If you really needed another one, that's the fourth reason to say no to Crestor: It's a seriously expensive way to get sick.
Falsely promoting ineffective and dangerous drugs, while pillaging bank accounts, is illegal. Street thugs go to jail every day for it. If the JUPITER rouse is to be condoned by the federal government and supported by the media, then there is no need for the FDA since Big Pharma can violate the laws with predatory prescription hype disguised as science. Say no to Crestor and all the other cholesterol-lowering drugs. Otherwise, face the outcomes of government mandated drug addiction.

Total Fat Loss Wellness Program
Are you prepared to:
You can learn to defy obesity and diabetes just like anybody else who succeed .What if the pandemic killers like diabetes, heart disease and cancer weren't that far down the road and you'd be coming face to face with them in just a few short weeks or years? Would you take action and invest in your health? Could you dedicate a mere 90 days to avoid them for the rest of your life?
Most of us don't like to think about the serious health complications that could be waiting for us, even though, in the back of our minds, we know we may face some of them. It's easy and much more comfortable to shrug those worries off, and assume that we won't have to deal with them anytime soon.
The fact is,even though most people knew that excess weight put you at a higher risk for many health problems, we just figured we were still young and healthy enough not to worry about it. Until one day your obesity finally caught up with you.
Obesity Gives Rise to Nasty Problems
People who suffered from a string of nasty health problems, including anxiety, fatigue, poor digestion and severe depression. Instantly, awoke to the reality that these were nothing more than signs of more urgent health complications. Most probably on the verge of type II diabetes...
Associated Press medical writers recently showed that, "The nation's obesity epidemic is exacting a heavy toll: The rate of new diabetes cases nearly doubled in the United States in the past 10 years."
Are you one of them?
At routine health checkups, your family doctor might have pushed an arsenal of cholesterol lowering drugs, blood pressure meds, and anti-depressants on you.
This is the path most people take...And it's a horrible way to make it through life.You Can Stop Obesity and All of its ComplicationsYou could be close to suffering a health catastrophe that could ruin (or even end) your life. No more fancy dinners. No more chasing your children or grandchildren through the park. No more summer vacations listening to the waves roll onto the beach. No more late nights under the stars, enjoying wine and desert with your spouse. No more breathtaking sunsets.
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), people who are overweight or obese are at a higher risk for all of the following:
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Osteoarthritis (a degeneration of cartilage and its underlying bone within a joint)
- Dyslipidemia (for example, high total cholesterol or high levels of triglycerides)
- Type 2 diabetes
- Coronary heart disease
- Stroke
- Gallbladder disease
- Sleep apnea and respiratory problems
- Depression
- Some cancers (endometrial, breast, and colon)
Melt the fat, and you free yourself from all the above complications that are nothing more than consequences of carrying too much fat.
You are NOT ALONE and like many others ,You can Challenges Obesity and Wins:
Most importantly, you gonna have a body that you can expect to stay vibrantly healthy for many decades to come! does not have to fear diabetes! and will continue dropping the fat, and won't wrestle with bouts of anxiety and depression.
When you shed the fear of poor health and premature death! Your days are full of energy and sleep with no regrets or worries of pandemic health killers. Have you even dreamed that?
Ever though why people put off doing anything about their excess fat ? It is because they think that it will be too hard or that they are doomed by genetics. Wrong.
You shouldn't skipping meals,"grazing" on 5 small meals throughout the day,packing the fridge with low fat food.,drinking fancy diet shakes or food bars, going to the gym every day, or even every other day! ,abstaining from her occasional favorite beer or desserts,etc.Instead,just changing a few habits that help balance YOUR hormones. It's kinda like cheating without getting caught. It's that easy."
Genetics Don't Determine your Physique
Some people like to blame genetics. Don't fall for this excuse. Genetics are simply the loaded gun, your lifestyle habits determine whether or not you pull the trigger. Therefore, anyone can overcome genetics with The AM-PM Fat Loss Discovery, as it teaches 10 habits to live by, and they are easy habits that dont't require starvation or rigid exercise routines!
Combined, the simple habits of HIT carve out your perfect physique in a matter of 90 days - at any age! Your friends and family won't even realize you are doing anything different! My own Mom realized this quick!
HIT is so phenomenal at optimizing and governing metabolism that it was featured in a recent edition of Time Magazine.
Hormone Intelligence
To understand the miracle-like benefits of HIT, you must understand the complexity of the human metabolism. It's a delicate and intricate balance of hormone production and balance. Combined, they control proper organ function, hormonal activity, mood, appetite control, and biogenic amine output.
Time Magazine recently described these as "overlapping systems." Some of the hormones highlighted were ghrelin for its ability to turn off hunger, leptin for its ability to ward off excess fat, cholecystokinin to tell us when it's time to stop eating, and many, amny more more. All of these systems work in orchestra-like unison to confer the perfect metabolism for low body fat and sexy, well-defined muscle - at any age. They are also the key to slowing the aging process. But they must work together! You can't simply control one of the systems.
The Pharmaceutical Industry's Forbidden Cure
I spent my entire graduate school career studying these overlapping, biological systems and how they can be controlled. I even designed and synthesized novel molecules that serves as backbones to the synthesis of almost any hormone found in the human body! This has helped chemists discover the actions of each and every hormone. That's when I found HIT - it took over a decade of arduous study.
By combining key lifestyle habits with the use of select nutrients, herbs, amino acids and proteins, the human body responds by producing and balancing its own fat burning and anti-aging hormones. The results are incredible, which is why I insisted that my Mom use all of them as The AM-PM Fat Loss Discovery. Most wonder why thier doctors aren't using it...
Funding and research by Big Pharma surrounding HIT is dwindling. Despite its' powerful effects, it's an all-natural product. This means that it has no monopoly power and is of no interest to the drug industry. Its forbidden! Without a monopoly, the drug industry cannot charge exorbitant prices in order to make billions. Therefore, don't expect your doctor to know about this any time soon.
What to Expect While Cheating Your Metabolism
Imagine all the benefits you can have once you utilize HIT:
- You won't be in the "danger zone" of risk for life threatening, debilitating health problems like heart attacks, diabetes, and cancer
- Know that you have a healthy, fit body that will carry you well into your golden years with zest and vitality
- Have the confidence that comes with looking your best in a bathing suit
- Smile the entire time you are out buying a new wardrobe
- Enjoy the envy from your friends as you sport smaller, sexier clothes
- Rest easy knowing that your heart isn't being overworked by excess fat and sugar overload
- Be confident in the bedroom knowing that your libido will respond and that you can enjoy your spouse like you were meant to
Hurry Before Someone Steals Your Supply
Will you keep putting off losing those unwanted pounds and sitting on the ticking time bomb of health problems that could go off at any moment?
Stop gambling with your health, and discover the simple, effective solution that will melt away your excess fat - giving you the look you've always wanted, and the peace of mind that only comes with a fit, healthy body!

Low-Cost Cardiovascular Cure
For living a wellness life,wise investing serves as a security blanket - in an insecure world - for family and future. It allowed us to escape an arduous nine-to-five career .And making wise investments in you health -probably the biggest and most rewarded investment you ever had,It always one of the most important things in your life.Talk about the foods you eat and the activities you engage in ,would you spend little bit more money on getting a quality products.
This is the fact, your health is an investment. Possibly the most important investment you will ever make. If you invest in it now, you can see big returns in the future. If you don’t invest in your health, it could cost you big time down the line.
According to a recent report by CNN Money,
"The retirement health tab can run between $64,000 and $122,000 for a 65-year-old man whose former employer pays his insurance premiums, and between $86,000 and $140,000 for a woman of the same age. For retirees who don't have access to an employer-offered plan, the costs - mostly for prescription drugs - run even higher.”
In addition to these exorbitant drug expenses, most Americans have one foot in the grave. Obesity, heart disease, diabetes and cancer are at an all time high. And it's expected to get worse!
The Journal of the American Medical Association predicted that one in three born in the year 2000 will succumb to type II diabetes, which is simply a "gateway" disease to all the pandemic killers. This rampant sickness is being met with an arsenal of cholesterol-lowering drugs, blood pressure meds, anti-depressants, and hypoglycemics. None have been proven to increase lifespan - just toxic and ineffective. Yet, they are continually pushed upon us for one reason: Financial gain.
Health doesn't have to be so damn expensive or risky. Science proves this. Mother Nature provides four cardiovascular cures that cost next to nothing. Combined, they can help us overcome a weakening heart and even type II diabetes.
Low-Cost Cardiovascular Cure #1: Psyllium Husk.
Psyllium husk is a soluble fiber, meaning it is an indigestible, complex carbohydrate. Once consumed, it undergoes fermentation in the large intestine, yielding a broad range of heart-healthy benefits, most notably the control of appetite, blood sugar and insulin.
A pooled analysis of 10 prospective cohort studies of dietary fiber intake in the US and Europe found that each 10 grams/day increase in total dietary fiber intake was associated with a 14 percent decrease in the risk of coronary events, such as myocardial infarction (MI), and a 24 percent decrease in deaths from coronary heart disease.
Psyllium husk is one of my favorite supplements due to its ability to help control blood glucose. Excess glucose in the blood stream can cause heart disease for its ability to become "oxidized." This oxidation leads to a change in the molecular structure of glucose - causing what is known as advanced glycation end products or AGE-products. Like a knife carving clay, AGE products scar arterial walls. The scarring results in plague buildup and excess blood clotting. This mechanism is why diabetics have a 4.5 times increase of suffering from heart attack and stroke relative to non-diabetics.
Go to your local health food store and purchase psyllium husk. This will cost you no more than a few bucks. In the bulk isle, psyllium can be purchased for about $3 per month.
Low-Cost Cardiovascular Cure #2: B Vitamins.
These vitamins are required for proper functioning of the brain, nervous system, and the formation of blood. They are also involved in the metabolism of every cell of the human body, especially for proper DNA synthesis and regulation, but also for fatty acid synthesis and energy production. Harvard researchers writing in the Journal of the American Medical Association stated that women could cut their risk of heart disease by half with daily consumption of B vitamins.
B vitamins are responsible for igniting a chemical cascade within the body known as methylation. This process rids the arteries of the damaging molecule known as homocysteine. The lower your levels of homocysteine, the less risk you have of suffering from cardiovascular disease.
Start supplementing with B vitamins today. A daily B vitamin supplement should cost no more than $10 per month.
Low-Cost Cardiovascular Cure #3: Flavonoids.
These are plant derived pigments. Over 4,000 have been studied for their cardiovascular and anti-cancer benefits. The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reported a 20 percent decrease in heart disease mortality risk among those who consumed at least 7.5 mg daily.
Flavonoids preserve the cardiovascular system and heart by three major actions: improving blood flow in order to enhance oxygen and nutrient delivery throughout the 100,000 miles of adult veins, arteries and capillaries, preventing the formation of artery-scarring, oxidized LDL, and relaxing the coronary arteries to prevent high blood pressure.
Make sure your shopping cart is loaded with food that are packed with flavonoids. The best sources of flavonoids are broccoli, hawthorn, grapeseed extract, black tea, citrus fruits, and organic dark chocolate.
Using these three cardiovascular cures to preserve health rather than drugs is a wise investment. It could potentially save you $64,000 in drug costs. What could you do with an extra $64,000 and good health? For me, it is more education, snowboarding, and of course Date Nights in exotic places around the world.

New York Times Comes Clean on Cholesterol Lowering Drugs
Every now and then, the truth shoves its way into the popular media. Hopefully all the Aunt Helga's and Uncle Bob's are reading. This comes direct from The New York Times:

Lipitor Lies
What is a Contortionist?For ordinally people like us ,it's like a hardest sport that we can do for our body..What do you know about Contortion also (known as contortionism)?
It is an unusual form of physical display which involves the dramatic bending and flexing of the human body.Statistical contortionism is the art of converting healthy people into patients by using numbers to exaggerate drug benefits.
Lipitor is a prime example. Drug companies and physicians use "relative risk reduction" while ignoring the "absolute risk reduction" in order to promote Lipitor use to a wider audience. This practice of statistical contortionism is akin to hiding evidence because it exaggerates benefits. See for yourself.
Lipitor promoters insist that those with so-called high cholesterol can achieve a 36% "relative risk reduction" in heart attack by using the cholesterol-lowering drug. The contortionists ignore that the same raw data can yield a more revealing "absolute risk reduction" of a paltry 1%. Using absolute risk reduction is more accurate because it compares the actual difference between the treated and untreated groups. Unfortunately, it is not good for increasing sales.BTW check out our previous post about 5 Reasons to Get Off Cholesterol Lowering Drugs
That Lipitor does not prevent heart attack is a death-blow to promoters. It goes virtually unnoticed because they push the absolute risk reduction under the drug-rug while magnifying relative risk reduction. This type of advertising disguised as science is the most dangerous trend in journalism today. It promotes drug use among healthy populations who are needlessly putting themselves at risk for adverse effects of Lipitor like cancer and heart failure.Check out:

Aspirin Hidden Danger Part II
Common OTC Medication Depletes Life-Saving Nutrient
Many Adverse Drug Events (ADR's) are not caused by the drug directly. Instead, they are the result of drug-induced nutritional deficiencies.One glaring example of this would be Aspirin™.
Marketed and prescribed for daily use to prevent heart attack, Aspirin™ depletes the body of the life-saving nutrient folic acid (as well as iron, potassium, sodium and vitamin C).
Symptoms of folic acid depletion include anemia, birth defects, elevated homocysteine (a risk factor for heart disease), headache, fatigue, hair loss, insomnia, diarrhea and increased infection.
This warning should not be taken lightly. Studies show that the side effects of Aspirin™ are so severe that they can cause a higher death rate relative to the populations who do not take it. Aspirin™ is a shining example of how marketing hype can supercede science.

The Billion Dollar Diet Pill
Have you often stress on overweight?knowing that fat loss and muscle growth is the absolute most important component of health at any age.
This is what has motivated me over the last 14 years to study this topic so rigorously.I just completed an overview of ALL THE MAJOR DIET PILLS ON THE MARKET.those wellness business.. Here is a sneak peak:
The Billion Dollar Diet Pill By Shane Ellison
I agonized over writing this article. The entire diet pill industry (prescription or otherwise) is wrought with hype and false claims. At first glance, it appears impossible to find an ounce of truth among the hype that fuels the billion dollar industry. But, after I applied the basic science of metabolism and medicinal chemistry, the facts surfaced.
You can't swallow a pill to achieve what companies are selling: effortless fat loss and the building of sexy, lean muscle. Such attempts have led to devastating results. However, that same science elucidates select herbal blends that can serve as a "metabolic spark" to our fat loss fire.
To understand the inherent failures and risks of diet pills, you must understand the complexity of the human metabolism. It's a delicate and intricate balance of organ function, hormonal activity, appetite control, and biogenic amine output all working in orchestra-like unison. Once achieved, the perfect metabolism confers low body fat and defined muscle. This "natural intelligence" of the human body cannot be mimicked or activated by any one pill.
But this hasn't stopped the drug and supplement industry from trying to activate at least one function to trigger fat loss. Such attempts have proven futile and even dangerous.
Death by Diet Pill
The first diet pill to hit the market was a combo of the psychostimulants fenfluramine and dexfenfluramine (marketed as Fen-Phen). Made by Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, its $52 million dollar marketing plan began selling the pants off fat Americans in 1992 by promising appetite control – despite not having FDA approval for the so-called, anorectic drug combo. Its benefit hardly outweighed its risk. Users lost a mere 5.5 lbs. of body weight compared to that achieved by dieting alone.
The New England Journal of Medicine showed that users of the combo faced a 23-fold increase in the risk of developing pulmonary hypertension and cardiovascular complications. Marketing ceased in 1997 after rampant heart disease and death. Wyeth paid about $17 billion in damages, but was never charged by the FDA for the illegal marketing of an unapproved drug.

Cardiovascular Nutrient
Vital for the Cardiovascular SystemMagnesium appears to be vital for proper cardiovascular function. Reported by the National Institute of Health, magnesium maintains normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, ensures the integrity of the arterial wall by controlling blood pressure and keeps bones strong.
It also helps regulate blood sugar levels and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis. The most advantageous forms of magnesium are avocados, mineral water and magnesium-L-asparate (500 - 1000 mg daily are recommended).

The Cholesterol CURE and Fact
You probably heard that physicians need to give children cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins).
You probably heard that statins are the bestselling drugs of all time. You
probably heard that statins can help lower cholesterol.
But what you rarely hear is that statin drugs are deadly.USA Today wrote that,
"Statins have killed and injured more people that the government wnts to admint."
What you have not heard is the REAL CHOLESTEROL CURE.
The truth is you should NEVER FEAR CHOLESTEROL AND HEART DISEASE AGAIN - WITHOUT STATINS.Cholesterol Does Not Cause Heart Disease!
Check out the article below to learn more about Cholesterol by Andreas Moritz ,he is a medical intuitive; a practitioner of Ayurveda, Iridology, Shiatsu and Vibrational Medicine; a writer and an artist. He has authored four“The Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush”, “Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation,” “Lifting the Veil of Duality,” and “It’s Time to Come Alive"
What is Cholesterol
Cholesterol is an essential building block of every cell in the body, required for all metabolic processes. It is particularly important in the production of nerve tissue, bile and certain hormones. On average, our body produces about half of a gram to one gram of cholesterol per day, depending on how much of it the body needs at the time.
By and large, our body is able to produce 400 times more cholesterol per day than what we would obtain from eating 3,5 ounces (100 grams) of butter. The main cholesterol producers are the liver and the small intestine, in that order. Normally, they are able to release cholesterol directly into the blood stream, where it is instantly tied to blood proteins.
These proteins, which are called lipoproteins, are in charge of transporting the cholesterol to its numerous destinations. There are three main types of lipoproteins in charge of transporting cholesterol: Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL), and High Density Lipoprotein (HDL).
In comparison to HDL, which has been privileged with the name 'good' cholesterol, LDL and VLDL are relatively large cholesterol molecules; in fact, they are the richest in cholesterol. There is good reason for their large size. Unlike their smaller cousin, which easily passes through blood vessel walls, the LDL and VLDL versions of cholesterol are meant to take a different pathway; they leave the blood stream in the liver.
The blood vessels supplying the liver have a very different structure from the ones supplying other parts of the body. They are known as sinusoids. Their unique, grid-like structure permits the liver cells to receive the entire blood content, including the large cholesterol molecules.
The liver cells rebuild the cholesterol and excrete it along with bile into the intestines. Once the cholesterol enters the intestines, it combines with fats, is absorbed by the lymph and enters the blood, in that order. Gallstones in the bile ducts of the liver inhibit the bile flow and partially, or even fully, block the cholesterol's escape route.
Due to back-up pressure on the liver cells, bile production drops. Typically, a healthy liver produces over a quart of bile per day. When the major bile ducts are blocked, barely a cup of bile, or even less, will find its way to the intestines. This prevents much of the VLDL and LDL cholesterol from being excreted with the bile.
Gallstones in the liver bile ducts distort the structural framework of the liver lobules, which damages and congests the sinusoids. Deposits of excessive protein also close the grid holes of these blood vessels (see the discussion of this subject in the previous section).
Whereas the 'good' cholesterol HDL has small enough molecules to leave the bloodstream through ordinary capillaries, the larger LDL and VLDL molecules are more or less trapped in the blood.
The result is that LDL and VLDL concentrations begin to rise in the blood to levels that seem potentially harmful to the body. Yet even this scenario is merely part of the body's survival attempts. It needs the extra cholesterol to patch up the increasing number of cracks and wounds that are formed as a result of the accumulation of excessive protein in the blood vessel walls.
Eventually, though, the life-saving cholesterol begins to occlude the blood vessels and cut off the oxygen supply to the heart.
In addition to this complication, reduced bile flow impairs the digestion of food, particularly fats. Therefore, there is not enough cholesterol made available to the cells of the body and their basic metabolic processes.
Since the liver cells no longer receive sufficient amounts of LDL and VLDL molecules, they (the liver cells) assume that the blood is deficient in these types of cholesterol. This stimulates the liver cells to increase the production of cholesterol, further raising the levels of LDL and VLDL cholesterol in the blood.
The 'bad' cholesterol is trapped in the circulatory system because its escape routes, the bile ducts and the liver sinusoids, are blocked or damaged. The capillary network and arteries attach as much of the 'bad' cholesterol to their walls as they possibly can.
Consequently, the arteries become rigid and hard.
Coronary heart disease, regardless of whether it is caused by smoking, drinking excessive amounts of alcohol, overeating protein foods, stress, or any other factor, usually does not occur unless gallstones have impacted the bile ducts of the liver.
Removing gallstones from the liver and gallbladder can not only prevent a heart attack or stroke, but also reverse coronary heart disease and heart muscle damage. The body's response to stressful situations becomes less damaging, and cholesterol levels begin to normalize as the distorted and damaged liver lobules are regenerated. Cholesterol-lowering drugs don't do that.
They artificially reduce blood cholesterol, which coerces the liver to produce even more cholesterol. But when extra cholesterol is passed into the bile ducts, it remains in its crystalline state (versus soluble state) and, thereby, turns into gallstones. People who regularly use cholesterol-lowering drugs usually develop an excessively large number of gallstones. This sets them up for major side effects, including cancer and heart disease.
Cholesterol is essential for normal functioning of the immune system, particularly for the body's response to the millions of cancer cells that every person makes in his body each day. For all the health problems associated with cholesterol, this important substance is not something we should try to eliminate from our bodies. Cholesterol does far more good than harm.
The harm is generally symptomatic of other problems. I wish to emphasize, once again, that 'bad' cholesterol only attaches itself to the walls of arteries to avert immediate heart trouble, not to create it.
This is confirmed by the fact that cholesterol never attaches itself to the walls of veins. When a doctor tests your cholesterol levels, he takes the blood sample from a vein, not from an artery. Although blood flow is much slower in veins than in arteries, cholesterol should obstruct veins much more readily than arteries, but it never does.
There simply is no need for that. Why? Because there are no abrasions and tears in the lining of the vein that require patching up. Cholesterol only affixes itself to arteries in order to coat and cover up the abrasions and protect the underlying tissue like a waterproof bandage. Veins do not absorb proteins in their basements membranes like capillaries and arteries do and, therefore, are not prone to this type of injury.
'Bad' cholesterol saves lives; it does not take lives. LDL allows the blood to flow through injured blood vessels without causing a life-endangering situation. The theory of high LDL being a principal cause of coronary heart disease is not only unproved and unscientific.
It has misled the population to believe that cholesterol is an enemy that has to be fought and destroyed at all costs. Human studies have not shown a cause-and-effect relationship between cholesterol and heart disease. The hundreds of studies so far conducted on such a relationship have only shown that there is a statistical correlation between the two.
And there should be, because if there were no 'bad' cholesterol molecules attaching themselves to injured arteries we would have millions of more deaths from heart attack than we already have.
On the other hand, dozens of conclusive studies have shown that risk of heart disease increases significantly in people whose HDL levels decrease. Elevated LDL cholesterol is not a cause of heart disease; rather, it is a consequence of an unbalanced liver and congested, dehydrated circulatory system.
If your doctor has told you that lowering your cholesterol with medical drugs protects you against heart attacks, you have been grossly misled. The #1 prescribed cholesterol-lowering medicine is Lipitor. I suggest that you read the following warning statement, issued on the official Lipitor web site:
"LIPITOR" (atorvastatin calcium) tablets is a prescription drug used with diet to lower cholesterol. LIPITOR is not for everyone, including those with liver disease or possible liver problems, and those who are nursing, pregnant, or may become pregnant. LIPITOR has not been shown to prevent heart disease or heart attacks.
"If you take LIPITOR, tell your doctor about any unusual muscle pain or weakness.
This could be a sign of serious side effects. It is important to tell your doctor about any medications you are currently taking to avoid possible serious drug interactions..."
My question is, "Why risk a person's health or life by giving him/her a drug that has no effect, whatsoever, in preventing the problem for which it is being prescribed?" The reason why the lowering of cholesterol levels cannot prevent heart disease is because cholesterol does not cause heart disease.
The most important issue is how efficiently a person's body uses cholesterol and other fats. The body's ability to digest, process and utilize these fats depends on how clear and unobstructed the bile ducts of the liver are. When bile flow is unrestricted and balanced, both the LDL and HDL levels are balanced as well. Therefore, keeping the bile ducts open is the best prevention of coronary heart disease.

Grocery Store Cancer Fighter
Image via WikipediaPotent Cancer Fighter Found at Your Grocery StoreDo you know? Green tea's cancer fighting ability has been well established in both animal models and human trials. One mechanism by which green tea fights cancer is by blocking the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in our body. Doing so halts the growth of tumors – a welcomed benefit to cancer victims.
The cogency of these studies ignited the Division of Cancer Prevention at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to invite applications for grants to foster the identification of molecular targets from green tea. Rather than promote the unpatentable herb, these pharmaceutically compliant research houses are working toward developing a "copycat" molecule.
"We may be able to develop new anti-cancer drugs based on the structure of the EGCG molecule." - Professor Roger Thornely, John Innes Center in Norwich
A copycat molecule would afford patent rights to drug companies who refuse to sell proven natural products at inexpensive costs. They strive for monopolization - causing patients to trade wealth for health. Keep it simple, obtain green tea from your grocery store and drink it daily to ward off cancer.

Bamboozled - Hoodwinked
Bias among Statins Drug Trials
People of all ages as well as elderly have been bamboozled into taking cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins) to prevent heart disease.
All statin drug trials from 1990 to 1999 suffered from age and gender bias. The statin drug trials were mainly conducted using middle-aged men, and did not study the effects among women, children, and the elderly or ethnic groups. Among these studies were 4S, CARE, LIPID, EXCEL, REGRESS, PREDICT, ACAPS, AFCAPS, WOSCOP, KAPS. There were 19 studies in total.
The General Accounting Office (GAO) of the United States Government has recognized the bias and stated:
"The trials generally have not evaluated the efficacy of cholesterol-lowering treatment for several important population groups, such as women, elderly men and women, and minority men and women. Thus, they provide little or no evidence of benefits or possible risks for these groups."
This is not medical advice. Medical diagnosis and treatment is constrained by law to be the monopoly of state licensed practitioners.

No time: Avoid Tim Russert Syndrome
Image by sluisga via FlickrHis physician stated that, "Tim Russert was a good patient, taking medications for his heart disease and exercising, his doctor said.
He had no chest pains and he passed an exercise stress test weeks
ago [his cholesterol levels were great]. Yet at 58, he suffered a heart attack and died. That's uncommon."
Huh? Uncommon? Fat people die from heart attacks ALL DAY LONG
EVERY DAY! And Tim was fat, period!
Big Pharma doesn't have anything to help obesity. Therefore, they overlook the fact that being obese leads to heart disease, not cholesterol and blood pressure levels.
Doctors continued by saying, "Despite impressive advances in preventing and treating heart disease, experts say there's no easy way to know which patients are going to have a heart attack and which aren't."
Huh? What the hell are they talking about? Of course there is an easy
way to know which patients are going to have a heart attack: The fat ones!
I accepted this hard fact when I reached 30% body fat.
I descended to 11% and put the fear of heart disease behind me forever. Anyone can
do the same, without drugs!

Master Antioxidant

The Master Antioxidant
Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) has been considered the master antioxidant. It is unique in that, unlike any other antioxidant, ALA is both fat and water soluble; thereby allowing it to operate in all environments in the body.
ALA inhibits the "hydroxyl radical." The hydroxyl radical is considered to be the most damaging of the free radicals due to its ability to initiate heart disease.
Adding to the myriad of benefits, ALA regenerates (through redox cycling) other antioxidants like vitamin C and vitamin E, thus helping to prevent a deficiency in any one of these vital nutrients.
ALA also maintains and even increases our bodies' own antioxidant: glutathione. Glutathione's best attribute is its ability to protect us from cancer. Glutathione is the chief detoxifier for the human body.
Through a process known as "conjugation" it attaches to deadly chemicals and escorts them out of the body and into the toilet. No other antioxidant confers so many benefits to users. The best natural sources of ALA are spinach, broccoli, and beef.
Live free of pandemic killers such as obesity, insulin resistance, cancer, heart disease, and many others! This is not medical advice. Medical diagnosis and treatment is constrained by law to be the monopoly of state licensed practitioners.

Important Nutrient for Children

The Most Important Supplement for Children
Nutritional supplementation with zinc among children provides immeasurable benefits. Zinc supplementation (20 mg daily for 14 days during each episode of diarrhea) given to nutrient starved children in Bangladeshi prevented absolute death by 50% and decreased the need for antibiotics by 60% among those who suffered from diarrhea.
Zinc also prevents pneumonia among children by up to 41%. Scientists from the Johns Hopkins School of Health stated that the sum effect of zinc supplementation on childhood health has a greater preventative effect for pneumonia, which kills millions of children per year, than any other current intervention. Such results often go ignored in the pharmaceutically dominated media.
Live free of pandemic killers such as obesity, insulin resistance, cancer, heart disease, and many others!
