If you are one of the nearly 100 million Americans struggling with high cholesterol, then Dr. Janet Brill offers you a revolutionary new plan for taking control of your health—without the risks of statin drugs. With Dr. Brill’s breakthrough Cholesterol Down Plan, you simply add nine “miracle foods” to your regular diet and thirty minutes of walking to your daily routine. That’s all.

Download or read book The Great Cholesterol Myth Revised and Expanded written by Jonny Bowden and published by Fair Winds Press. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The best-selling book on heart disease, updated with the latest research and clinical findings on high-fat/ketogenic diets, sugar, genetics, and other factors. Heart disease is the #1 killer. However, traditional heart disease protocols—with their emphasis on lowering cholesterol—have it all wrong. Emerging science is showing that cholesterol levels are a poor predictor of heart disease and that standard prescriptions for lowering it, such as ineffective low-fat/high-carb diets and serious, side-effect-causing statin drugs, obscure the real causes of heart disease. Even doctors at leading institutions have been misled for years based on creative reporting of research results from pharmaceutical companies intent on supporting the $31-billion-a-year cholesterol-lowering drug industry. The Great Cholesterol Myth reveals the real culprits of heart disease, including: inflammation, fibrinogen, triglycerides, homocysteine, belly fat, triglyceride to HDL ratios, and high glycemic levels. Best-selling health authors Jonny Bowden, PhD, and Stephen Sinatra, MD, give readers a four-part strategy based on the latest studies and clinical findings for effectively preventing, managing, and reversing heart disease, focusing on diet, exercise, supplements, and stress and anger management. Myths vs. Facts Myth: High cholesterol is the cause of heart disease. Fact: Cholesterol is only a minor player in the cascade of inflammation which is a cause of heart disease. Myth: Saturated fat is dangerous. Fact: Saturated fats are not dangerous. The killer fats are the transfats from partially hydrogenated oils. â?? Myth: The higher the cholesterol, the shorter the lifespan. Fact: Higher cholesterol protects you from gastrointestinal disease, pulmonary disease, and hemorrhagic stroke. Myth: High cholesterol is a predictor of heart attack. Fact: There is no correlation between cholesterol and heart attacks. Myth: Lowering cholesterol with statin drugs will prolong your life. Fact: There is no data to show that statins have a significant impact on longevity. Myth: Statin drugs are safe. Fact: Statin drugs can be extremely toxic including causing death. Myth: Statin drugs are useful in men, women, and the elderly. Fact: Statin drugs do the best job in middle-aged men with coronary disease.

Book excerpt: The Ultimate Solution to Lower Your Cholesterol Without DrugCholesterol is an important substance that your body need. There are 3 types of cholesterol – the bad cholesterol (LDL), good cholesterol (HDL) and triglycerides. If your bad cholesterol level is higher than the normal level in your bloodstream, it causes blockage of your arteries. However, there are things that you can do to manage cholesterol levels and lower your risk. High cholesterol is one of the health problems that are affecting millions of people all over the world. It is considered as one of the major risk factors for heart disease. You will have difficulties in dealing with it if you are not aware what cholesterol is. There are lots of myths and misconceptions about cholesterol, which worsen the situation and in some cases it even lead to stroke and heart attack. This book wants to emphasize that cholesterol is NOT your enemy. It is a substance needed by several vital organs like liver in order to function properly. This book is written not just to define terms and collect information that you already knew. It contains details and facts that are unknown to you.

It has been proven many times that “prevention is better than cure.” This also applies to having a high cholesterol. The last few chapters of this book include the right diet, workouts, and home remedies to help keep your cholesterol under control. Several studies have been reported showing the side effects of taking medications to lower your bad cholesterol. The key to a healthy cholesterol level is a proper diet.

Download or read book Hidden Truth about Cholesterol Lowering Drugs written by Shane Ellison and published by Health Myths Exposed. This book was released on 2006 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a drug chemist for a leading pharmaceu-tical company I made a startling discovery: you do not have to be dependent on FDA approved drugs to, avoid heart disease. In fact, research clearly shows the opposite. You don't need a single prescription drug to avoid this killer. The best selling drugs of all time are the cholesterol-lowering drugs known as "statins". They procure drug makers and their shareholders billions of dollars in profits every year. The success of these drugs is not attributed to their effectiveness but instead to slick and misleading marketing practices. This hype is fueled by egregious conflicts of interest amongst drug company servants disguised as experts. Don't I be surprised if your own doctor falls within this group. The truth be told, statin drugs are poisons - foreign to the human body and may at times be, life threatening. Avoiding heart disease should not be expensive or dangerous. A plethora of natural alternatives exist. Understanding them as outlined in this paradigm shifting book will arm you with the understanding and courage not to accept popular dogma. It may prove to be one of the greatest assets to your health.
Download or read book Low Cholesterol Myth written by Selene Josh and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A high blood cholesterol level increases your risk of coronary artery disease. Lower cholesterol is usually better, but in rare cases having a very low level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or "bad") cholesterol or a very low total cholesterol level has been associated with some health problems.Doctors are still trying to find out more about the connection between low cholesterol and health risks. There is no consensus on how to define very low LDL cholesterol, but LDL would be considered very low if it is less than 40 milligrams per deciliter of blood.Although the risks are rare, very low levels of LDL cholesterol may be associated with an increased risk of: CancerHemorrhagic strokeDepressionAnxietyPreterm birth and low birth weight if your cholesterol is low while you're pregnantThe potential risk of lowering LDL cholesterol to very low levels has not been confirmed, and its association with certain health risks is still under debate.Recent trials using novel treatments to lower cholesterol have reached extremely low cholesterol values with no increased risk for major side effects, but the follow-up was relatively short.In some cases it is not clear if low cholesterol causes the health problem or if it's the other way around. For example, people with depression may have low cholesterol levels, but it has not been proved that lowering cholesterol with statin therapy causes depression.However, the benefits of lowering total and LDL cholesterol have been demonstrated extensively, particularly in individuals with heart disease or at high risk of heart disease or strokes.If you're concerned about your cholesterol level, consult your doctor. If you're taking statins, don't stop without first consulting your doctor. He or she can determine the cholesterol range most appropriate for you
