How The War On Cholesterol Began!Back in the late 40's, scientists and researchers assembled in Framingham, NY to study the cause of, and hopefully find a cure for heart disease.This group, known as the "The Framingham Study" made some headway into discovering some things that contribute to heart disease. Then, in 1961, they stumbled upon cholesterol and with incomplete "faulty" research, lacking in scientific fact, became so convinced they found the answer, other research was disregarded and tunnel vision set in.Unfortunately, this "tunnel vision" blinded researchers and regulators from the truth that was right in front of them and big drug companies and special interest lobby groups used these findings to capitalize for their own greed.Soon after, the low-fat theory was born and the Food Pyramid followed that promoted manufactured, low-fat foods filled with sugar, promoted starches all of which the human body was never designed to process.Here's The Truth - Cholesterol Is Vital, Not Evil!Once you see how this colossal error began and allowed to continue, you'll understand that cholesterol is absolutely essential for human life. It is manufactured by the body and in fact, if you don't get enough from foods you eat, your body will manufacture its own supply. That's how important it is.Countless clinical studies have shown that lowering the amount of cholesterol in your diet has little to no effect on the amount that ultimately circulates through your blood stream.But, in spite of an overwhelming collection of evidence, we still cling to the notion of a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet, and the idea that heart disease is a result of too much cholesterol floating through arteries.Why? Because we are bombarded with statin drug commercials, mass media, marketing hype and doctors who insist cholesterol must be lowered.If you are interested to learn more
