More Nutrition and Cholesterol Nonsense

I am really amazed by the nonsense littering the web. Take for instance Julie Upton, a registered dietician, who has an article on POPSUGAR telling about food myths.  She lists diet soda as a product that doesn't cause you to get fat, Myth 2: Diet sodas make you gain weight. Fact: While you may have read that diet beverages make you gain weight, a recent clinical trial found just the opposite. In the 12-week study, published in the journal Obesity , dieters who drank diet beverages lost 13 pounds on average — 44 percent more than subjects drinking water only, who lost an average of nine pounds. What's more, the diet-soda drinkers reported feeling more satisfied. This study adds to a substantial body of research demonstrating that low-calorie sweeteners and the diet beverages that contain them do not hinder but can in fact help with weight loss. Two peer-reviewed studies published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition by researchers from the University of Nort...

Busted: Cholesterol Claims

Cholesterol Claims Confound Cholesterol-battling plant stanol-based Benecol has been busted in the UK for exaggerating TV advert claims even though they were based on UK National Health Service, British Heart Foundation (BHF) and World Health Organization (WHO) data. A veteran healthy foods consultant called the ruling   “stupid”   and advised Raiso-owned Benecol’s UK license holder, Johnson & Johnson, to sue the UK agency in question. The ads for Benecol drinking yoghurt claimed,   "two out of three adults have high cholesterol"   in the UK, but the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) said the claim manipulated BHF and other data and, “ therefore exaggerated the health benefit of the product.” ‘Stupid?’ Despite being approved by the broadcast approver, Clearcast, the ASA also ruled the ad had inappropriately used an EU-approved cholesterol reducing claim by stating Benecol was,   “proven  to lower cholesterol by up to 10% in just three weeks." “This...

Calculating Cholesterol

Natural Health News has over eight (8) pages of articles addressing the cholesterol charade.  I am posting the top four (4) in light of the new push to get more people on a very dangerous drug that in reality has no real benefit to protect you from cardiovascular disease. What statin drugs and other anticholesterol pharmaceuticals do is harm your health in so many other ways it is almost unfathomable that doctors them selves do not do more deep research on the concept. You are at risk of muscle damage and kidney failure, heart failure, liver failure, diabetes, dementia, cancer and many more health derangements should you fall into this drug deception. There are many safer and more natural ways to keep cholesterol in balance.  It is something you need not something to be depleted. If you are interested in balancing cholesterol please contact us for more information and natural suggestions that do work with a lack of serious adverse effects. And consider this -  Misle...

Study links statins to higher diabetes again

For years, more than a dozen at least, I have been covering the statin drug issue. My focus has been to educate people about the serious risks of this drug class and to help them realize that what they are being told is not always correct. Now, again, we have a new report on the fact that statins can raise your risk of getting diabetes. In light of all the serious risks from this drug class perhaps you might wish to consider natural care approaches to the cholesterol conundrum. Health Forensics An increased risk of diabetes among statin users was first seen in 2008, in a randomized controlled trial of the drug Crestor, says Vivian Fonseca, the American Diabetes' Association's president for medicine and science. A 2011 analysis in the  Journal of the American Medical Association  and a 2010 analysis in  The Lancet  also found an increased risk of diabetes among statin users.
