subject: The Cholesterol Lie Review [print this page] Back in the late 40's, scientists and researchers assembled in Framingham, NY to study the cause of, and hopefully find a cure for heart disease.
This group, known as the "The Framingham Study" made some headway into discovering some things that contribute to heart disease. Then, in 1961, they stumbled upon cholesterol and with incomplete "faulty" research, lacking in scientific fact, became so convinced they found the answer, other research was disregarded and tunnel vision set in.
Unfortunately, this "tunnel vision" blinded researchers and regulators from the truth that was right in front of them and big drug companies and special interest lobby groups used these findings to capitalize for their own greed.
Soon after, the low-fat theory was born and the Food Pyramid followed that promoted manufactured, low-fat foods filled with sugar, promoted starches all of which the human body was never designed to process.
This is what you are about to discover - how treating the wrong cause created an epidemic of heart disease since 1948.
What is inflammation? It is simply your body's natural, physiological response to protect itself from a foreign substance but under the right set of circumstances, it can literally turn against you in your arteries setting up a chain reaction of events with deadly consequences.
How many doctors do you know who will do that? The reason is, he truly cares about you. He cares about curing heart disease. As a surgeon, he repaired damaged hearts; by writing this book and giving you simple steps to follow, he knows you can heal your heart.
