"Forget the 'science' that has been drummed into your
head for decades. The science that saturated fat alone causes heart
disease is non-existent. The science that saturated fat raises blood
cholesterol is also very weak. Since we now know that cholesterol is not
the cause of heart disease..."
Dr. Dwight Lundell, M.D., shares very important and health-full facts about what really causes heart disease and damaged arteries. Yet again we are informed that we have been mislead by popular science that fabricates data that leads to dependence on drugs. Much of the alternative lifestyle philosophies have already acknowledged the purer the food the better off we are. But now it is hitting mainstream more openly. Kudos to this man who is another voice helping to reverse the brain-washing that has all but taken over our collective consciousness. -S.C.-

We physicians with all our training, knowledge
and authority often acquire a rather large ego that tends to make it
difficult to admit we are wrong. So, here it is. I freely admit to being
wrong. As a heart surgeon with 25 years experience, having performed
over 5,000 open-heart surgeries, today is my day to right the wrong with
medical and scientific fact.
I trained for many years with other prominent physicians labelled "opinion makers." Bombarded with scientific literature, continually attending education seminars, we opinion makers insisted heart disease resulted from the simple fact of elevated blood cholesterol.
The only accepted therapy was prescribing medications to lower cholesterol and a diet that severely restricted fat intake. The latter of course we insisted would lower cholesterol and heart disease. Deviations from these recommendations were considered heresy and could quite possibly result in malpractice.
