Cholesterol Myths

"The Cholesterol Myth."

No new conclusions, but lots of supporting evidence for things I have heard before and that are only logical.



How to prevent a heart attack:
· Exercise More

· LOWER YOUR STRESS In Life
· Avoid Sugar And Polyunsaturated Fats, Especially Margarine.
· Enjoy Your Butter And Red Meat. Leaving Them Out Will NOT Reduce Your Risk Of Heart Attack Nor Lower Your Cholesterol.

Taking drugs to lower your LDL is a gamble.

First of all, lower cholesterol has NOT been shown to affect the rates of CHD (Cardiac Heart Disorder). High LDL is often associated with CHD, but excessive bleeding is associated with cutting your wrists, too. That doesn't mean that bleeding causes gashes in your wrist.

Cholesterol drugs do reduce the risk of CHD, though they don't always reduce Cholesterol levels.

However, the rates of cancer in those who take the anti- Cholesterol Drugs is significantly higher.

So choose your poison; heart disease (maybe) or cancer. I will take the heart disease, personally.

I am updating the fat section of my health book, “Caring for Your Masterpiece,” to reflect the new information I have.
