It is due to the fact that there are NO actual relation between CVD and cholesterol. Cholesterol is needed for our body. 25% of our brain is cholesterol, our hormones are produced from it, including vitamin D3.<br /> I suspect that there is a defined (genetic?) balance between exogenous sources of cholesterol and endogenous one. You should not try to disturb this balance as it would have impact on the longevity. The key is to understand the role of cholesterol sulphite and vitamin d3 connection... <br />Longevity and cholesterol according to the latest Norwegian Study: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1365-2753.2011.01767.x/pdf<br /><br />SaludosAri Supperinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-19162617630734800502011-03-11T11:29:28.667+02:002011-03-11T11:29:28.667+02:00I've bookmarked this because I found it funny....I've bookmarked this because I found it funny.

I came across this study just recently which found no relationship between CHD and low-gi carbs, but it's an epidemiological study though-<br />http://archinte.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/abstract/170/7/640<br /><br />I noticed in the study it just said 'grain products' no real indication of whether they were whole grains or refined grains with sugar added etc, unless I'm missing something.Sandynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-78061100514226288312010-08-10T10:15:55.939+03:002010-08-10T10:15:55.939+03:00@Anonymous,
If you look at the food pyramid, you&...@Anonymous,<br /><br />If you look at the food pyramid, you'll see that the recommendation is 3-5 servings of vegetables and 2-4 servings of fruit. So even the low-fat, low-vegetable diet (with 2 servings of each) is very close to the recommendations (only one serving of veggies is missing). <br /><br />Why should it be stressed that all measured items are reduced? Is reduced HDL a good thing? The whole point is that total cholesterol is not positively associated with mortality. LDL/HDL ratio is slightly better, and it got *worse*. Also, those are not all measured items, since ox-LDL and Lp(a) were also measured, and they were not reduced. <br /><br />- JLLJLLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01200324973565346888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-79249492521823781792010-08-10T02:27:36.128+03:002010-08-10T02:27:36.128+03:00In the conclusion it is not clearly stressed that ...In the conclusion it is not clearly stressed that ALL measured items (total chol., Trigly., HDL, LDL) are reduced in subjects on the low fat - high vegetable diet.<br />It should also be stressed, that the latter comes closer to a recommended healthy diet (high in leafy green vegetables, coloured vegetables, legumes, fruit, nuts, seed/pseudograins, roots, sprouts etc.) and that the low fat - low vegetable diet cannot be recommended by any reasonable person.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-74893629538954613442010-08-02T19:42:49.924+03:002010-08-02T19:42:49.924+03:00interesting article. fun and must read. learned al...interesting article. fun and must read. learned alot actually. hope to read more.Dr Eric Berghttp://www.drberg.com/noreply@blogger.com
