Best Foods to Eat (Health-wise)

Quote from bigarrow:

Hey Junior your being a prick.

For everyone else the cholesterol studies are interesting and there are thousands more to read on this subject. I could also have posted studies supporting a low fat diet, but I could not find one study supporting a total Vegan diet (not really, I didn't look). When it's used as a religion Vegan is capitalized.

The effects of a very-low-carbohydrate, high-saturated-fat weight-loss diet ...
CONCLUSION: An LC does not impair FMD. We observed beneficial effects of both diets on most of the CVD risk factors measured.

Dietary cholesterol from eggs increases plasma HDL cholesterol in overweight men consuming a carbohydrate-restricted diet.
Eighteen subjects were classified as having the metabolic syndrome (MetS) at the beginning of the study, whereas 3 subjects had that classification at the end. These results suggest that including eggs in a CRD results in increased HDL-C while decreasing the risk factors associated with MetS.

Westernizing diets influence fat intake, red blood cell fatty acid composition, and health in remote Alaskan Native communities in the center for Alaska Native health study.
CONCLUSIONS: Diets emphasizing traditional Alaskan Native foods were associated with a fatty acid profile promoting greater cardiovascular health than diets emphasizing Western foods.

Cholesterol levels did not increase in the Atkins group and systolic blood pressure decreased, although not significantly. Our patient will likely lose weight if she is able to continue with any of these diets. Although the evidence evaluating increased cardiovascular events in patients on the Atkins diet is not strong, the available evidence does not show that the Atkins diet increases this risk.

A randomized trial of a low-carbohydrate diet for obesity.
The low-carbohydrate diet was associated with a greater improvement in some risk factors for coronary heart disease.

I posted links to some Atkins type diets just to show everything isn't black and white when it comes to our body. I personally don't like the Atkins diet. These are a few of the literally hundreds of published studies showing the cholesterol question isn't answered yet.

Once you start reading up on this some you will find evidence supporting both sides. I also think a big part of diet is finding out what works for the individual, we are not all wired the same.

Thereare reams of evidence for the association of cholesterol to heart disease, and its well accepted in scientific community and amongst health care professionals. I doubt ANY amount of proof would convince you. You cherry picked a study, a pop website or two out of mounds to the contrary. 20 yrs from now you'll still be ignoring the greater body the evidence, cherry picking studies while you pop your statins and BP pills.


:D

Calcium consumption is high in the west, there are lots of cultures that get way less calcium and more magnesium and they don't have osteoperosis. The Cholesterol thing is just ridiculous, always was. All they knew was that artery walls were cracking and part of the repair was done with cholesterol so they jump to the conclusion somehow that less cholesterol is better...

You asked me to cherry pick three examples so I did. If you have problems with the examples take it up with pub med to have it removed from their site. There is evidence cholesterol causes heart disease and evidence it doesn't. I've read hundreds of summary's and quite a few full papers, you ought to try it. You might find you don't know everything like you think you do.
 
Quote from bigarrow:

There is also tons of evidence showing people and cultures eating fat and NOT having heart problems. All it takes is one opposite instance to nullify an absolute. If you don't understand it is not absolute that sat fat causes heat disease.

Not 3 studies...

the request is to name at least 3 CULTURES out of your 'tons' that eat high sat fat diets without heart disease.

well??


:D
 
Maybe you are unfamiliar with the concept of nullifying an absolute by needing only ONE example. You cannot say all saturated fats are bad and lead to coronary disease as PACIFIC ISLANDERS have eaten saturated fats in the form of coconut oil for 1000's of years with minimal cases of heart disease and even more interesting, very few cases of obesity.

And, you're reading comprehesion skills are lacking as bigarrow said there is tons of EVIDENCE that cultures that have high fat and saturated fat diets show little sign of coronary issues not tons of CULTURES themselves.

Learn to read, then maybe you will learn to understand things outside the narrow little box that is your life.

He is a jerk, just think what the people who work with him have to put up with. You would think we were talking about politics or religion instead of diet and science, oh well.
 
For a reasonably cheap mineral supplement, maybe try a teaspoon of organic mollasses a day.
Chock full of goodies, also chock full of calories, but consider its whats left when all the actual simple sugar is removed, it makes a lot of sense nutritionally.

If you like licorice flavour, it could be a boon.
