After almost everybody began believing that cholesterol was dangerous then food products further promoted the idea by capitalizing on the fear. They began aggressively promoting food with “low fat, low cholesterol” labels and they replaced the fat and cholesterol content with sugar and carbohydrates for flavor. This was more dangerous compared to the fat itself because sugar becomes fat when it’s processced in our bodies.
Saturated fat vs. Trans fat :
The saturated fats that food contains is natural. Trans fat is man-made fat which is created in a process by adding hydrogen into vegetable oil. This is called hydrogenation, which makes the oil stay longer in the body.
One kind of Trans fat is margarine. Lately, many food products advertise that Trans fats are healthier when in fact it has been proven that Trans fats are related to heart disease.
This is why, when there are more products in the U.S. that claim to be low fat, there is more obesity in the U.S. than anywhere else. The consequence is that the more afraid we are of destroying our bodies, the more we will eat food that we think is safe for us.
Dwight Lundell, M.D., author of “The Cure for Heart Disease”, stated that “all this time we were catching the bull by the horns, but then discovered we were catching the wrong bull!”
De Lorgeril the chief of Lyon Diet Heart research, “we can summarize it with one sentence. Cholesterol is harmless”.
THE ACTUAL CAUSE OF HEART DISEASE
The answer is inflammation.
The first type of inflammation is acute inflammation.
Whether it’s from an itchy rash, a knife cut, or from a bruise you can feel the pain. It’s called acute inflammation.
The kind of inflammation we are concerned with is chronic inflamation.
Chronic inflammation can kill us.
Chronic inflammation causes diseases like Alzheimers, cancer, diabetes, liver and especially heart disease.
The inflammation spreads so that is why you will often hear that someone died from the complications of the disease. Inflammation in one place can be spread every where including up into your heart.
