  • The Truth About Fat: the Latest Update February 24Th 2016 Cathy Mazanec, MPH, RDN, CSSD, LDN
    The Truth about Fat: The Latest Update February 24th 2016 Cathy Mazanec, MPH, RDN, CSSD, LDN I recently attended a Fat Summit hosted by Integrative and Functional Medicine physician, Mark Hyman, MD, Director of the Center for Functional Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Hyman invited some of the most prestigious U.S. researchers to join this online Summit to share their individual research data. This academic bench of researchers and thought leaders was deep, some of whom included: Ronald Krause, MD; Daniel Amen, MD; Jeffrey Bland, PhD; Michael Roizen, MD; Chris Kresser, MS, LAc; Walter Willett, MD; David Perlmutter, MD; Dean Ornish, MD. I was so excited to finally hear the latest update about dietary fats and end the great fat debate once and for all. What a long awaited relief this would be…… This could not have been further from the truth!! Consistent with the pattern I’ve seen over my 37 year career, nutrition research from highly respected scholars often conflicts. The reason for this is each researcher is looking at a different piece of the same puzzle. In this case, the effect of a certain dietary fat on one piece of the puzzle may be very different from the effect that fat has on another piece of the puzzle. Hence, each researcher may have a different viewpoint and recommendation about the dietary fat being studied. So a lot of questions still remain unanswered but some information is very clear. Here's a snippet of the latest research regarding dietary fat and what we need to know ……….

  • The Great Olive Oil Misconception -- Dr
    The Great Olive Oil Misconception -- Dr. Ornish Responds | Heart-Healthy Food | Reader's Digest | Print Version Print | Close X The Great Olive Oil Misconception -- Dr. Ornish Responds Dr. Ornish answers questions about the health value of canola oil versus olive oil. By Dean Ornish, MD The Truth About Olive Oil In his September column, Dr. Dean Ornish reported that olive oil is not as healthy as everyone thinks it is. A number of readers were dismayed and disbelieving of this news, and others thought canola oil, which Dr. Ornish recommends, is unhealthy. Dr. Ornish addresses these concerns: First of all, on the health benefits of canola oil versus olive oil: Olive oil, like all oils, is 100% fat. Since fat has 9 calories per gram, whereas protein and carbohydrates have only 4 calories per gram, people consuming a lot of olive oil are also consuming a lot of extra calories. As I wrote in my column, olive oil “lowers” cholesterol only when substituted in equal amounts for foods that are higher in saturated fat. In other words, if you replace 60 grams of butter with 60 grams of olive oil, your LDL cholesterol level is likely to decrease—not because olive oil lowered your cholesterol level but because it didn’t raise it as much. This is a very common misconception, causing many people to consume a lot of olive oil in the belief that it will somehow magically lower their cholesterol levels. Studies comparing the effects of canola oil versus olive oil show that canola oil consumption results in lower LDL cholesterol levels.

All Rights Reserved Visit us online at: http://saveyourheart.com Page 2 of 35 Angina Pain Cured by 2-Time Nobel Prize Winning Biochemist In a case study reported in the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine, Dr. Linus Pauling described a nutritional protocol that resulted in the elimination of angina pain in a fellow biochemist. Even though the 71 year old biochemist had 3 coronary bypass operations and was taking 3 prescription medications, he still had to take sublingual nitro to suppress his angina pain when walking and working in the yard. Dr. Pauling suggested the nutritional protocol developed by him and Dr. Matthias Rath (MD) at the Linus Pauling Institute of Science and Medicine: a combination of specific vitamins, minerals and amino acids taken in precise doses twice a day. The biochemist started the protocol in April. By mid-June he could walk and do yard work without angina pain. By late August he cut up a tree with a chain saw. And in early September he painted his house. He also cut the doses of his heart medications in half. He writes: “I attribute my newfound wellbeing to Dr. Pauling’s nutritional protocol. The effect of the therapy borders on the miraculous.” Reference: Case Report: Amelioration of Angina Pectoris, Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine, Vol. 6, Pgs. 144-146, 1991.

  • WHY VEG A5 Flyer.Indd
    Boycott Cruelty Go Vegan! TURNING ANIMALS INTO FOOD Many people believe (and hope) that animals raised for food for humans must be very well treated because sick, diseased or dead animals would be of no use to agribusiness. But this is not true. FACTORY FARMING= INDUSTRIALISED CRUELTY The pressure to produce inexpensive beef, chicken, pork, veal, fish, eggs, milk and dairy products has led modern farming to treat animals as mere commodities or machines. There is a trend worldwide to replace small family farms with intensive, industrialised, factory farms. The philosophy of mass production is what lies behind it all. “...if the public knew more about the way in which agricultural and animal production infringes on animal welfare, the outcry would be louder.” BERNARD E. ROLLIN, PhD Farm Animal Welfare, Iowa State University Press, 1995. Bernard Rollin is author of more than 150 papers and 10 books on ethics and animal science. Hens in crowded cages suffer severe feather loss. “The life of an animal in a factory farm is characterised by acute deprivation, stress, and disease. Hundreds of millions of animals are forced to live in cages just barely larger than their own bodies. While one species may be caged alone without any social contact, another species may be crowded so tightly together that they fall prey to stress-induced cannibalism… the victims of factory farms exist in a relentless state of distress.” Humane Farming Association: 2 The Dangers of Factory Farming Inside a broiler house.
