We’ve been fighting the wrong enemy.
In the war against America’s biggest killer, heart disease, doctors told us for decades that we needed to cut saturated fat.
This, it turns out, is nonsense spawned by bad science.
One of the worst offenders is the 1969 Los Angeles VA Study.[i]
It looked at 850 elderly veterans who were divided into two groups.… Read More
Nature gave us stomach acid for a reason.
It helps our digestive system break down food and absorb nutrients. And it protects against germs.
When we eat something containing a virus or bacteria, our stomach acid kills it, stopping an infection before it starts.
But millions of Americans don’t have this protection.
Forty percent of older adults take heartburn drugs called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) that suppress stomach acid production.… Read More
Since March, 911 calls for medical emergencies have dropped by more than 26%.
At the same time, emergency calls to homes where someone has died have doubled, according a new study from the University at Buffalo/State University of New York.
What’s going on?
People are afraid to call an ambulance. They worry they will catch the coronavirus if they go to the hospital, researchers say.… Read More
Out-of-control inflammation is how COVID-19 kills.
And inflammation is the underlying cause of cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and many other deadly health conditions. A recent medical journal review called inflammation “the most significant cause of death in the world today.”[1]
Harvard University researchers go even further. They say inflammation may cause all disease. They call it the “unifying theory” of illness.… Read More
For decades, coffee got a bad rap from mainstream doctors. It started with bad science…
A 1946 Johns Hopkins study found that people who drank lots of coffee had a 300% higher risk of heart disease.[1]
The research was nonsense.
The scientists didn’t control for smoking. Back in the day, many people smoked cigarettes with coffee. Subsequent studies discovered it was the smoking, not the coffee, that was causing heart disease in coffee drinkers.… Read More
Eat eggs without guilt…even if you have heart problems, high cholesterol, or diabetes.
That’s the message from a new study that debunks warnings from mainstream doctors that we shouldn’t eat eggs.
For decades, conventional physicians have been telling us that eggs are one of the worst foods for your heart. They raise cholesterol, they said. They increase the risk of heart attack, they said. … Read More
