We assessed the effect of a diet high in leafy and green vegetables,
fruit, and nuts on serum lipid risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
Ten healthy volunteers (seven men and three women aged 33 +/- 4
years

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Some study

7 men and 3 women

ROTFLMAO


You imagine that they were all exceptions to the rule somehow?

The jokes on you, clown.



Ok I eat meat, LOTS of meat, my cholesterol level is under 100, been
there forever.

What's your level ?

My 80 year old Dad was taken off of meat three years ago, trying to
lower his cholesterol, they also added walking, and a bunch of other
things, for him to change, his levels dropped from 310 to 270, they then
put him on drugs to lower it, it dropped to 250, still too damn high
according to your researchers

My wife works with a person who eats like you do, ZERO MEAT, been doing
it for 20 years, their cholesterol level is 290

Why is their level not lower than mine ?????????????????????

Where the hell is their cholesterol coming from ?????????

Are me, my dad, and this person exceptions to the rule ??????????????????

Show me a study where low levels of cholesterol have extended life, even
1 single day over those who have high levels. If they don't die from
heart disease, they may die from cancer, or diabetes, but they still die.

I say we need to outlaw process sugar, and flower, now those are the
killers of man, so is margarine, and shortening ) all made from your
"holy" vege's, How about French fries.


I have fairly low cholesterol. My dad had high cholestrol. Cholestrol is also
increased by improper heart function, arrhythmias. Heridity is the major cause of
vast level changes, but in my case I guess my mother offset that. Its
got to be said somewhere that high LDL increases chances for heart attact.
Atkins diest high meat can reduce the bad cholestrol. Many vegatables
act creating the chance of blod clots. Hoe about carrots. You better NOT eat
carrots and green leafy vegetables. For me a blanced protien, carb, fat, diet is
the best way to go, including excercise. For those with high LDL, I would want
to be on drugs. Diet has a minimum effect on changing levels.
My dad even though on cholestrol medication and blood thinners, still
had heart failure and total blockage of the lower extremidies.
