For more on the correct diet for diabetes

There is a new site at Diabetes-Diet.org.uk. They aren't selling anything — just giving away good advice. This site shows clearly how diabetes of both types can be defeated merely by a small change in diet. No drugs are needed.

On Cholesterol and Coronary Heart Disease

Cholesterol Is Good!
The "Cholesterol is Good" Web Ring is a linked list of non-affiliated individuals and organizations who believe:

  • Saturated fats from animal sources are an essential part of the diet.
  • Fear of eating red meats, dairy and eggs because of the saturated fat content is irrational.
  • Cholesterol-fear is doing more damage to the general health of our population than good.
  • The routine prescription of statin drugs by doctors to lower blood cholesterol levels of the people in the general population promotes profit, not health.
  • Cholesterol and consumption of saturated fat are not the culprits in increased rates of obesity and heart disease.

A new site at Cholesterol-and-Health.org.uk spells out, in easy to understand language, how important cholesterol is to our health, and why lowering your cholesterol artificially might not be such a good idea.


Another very useful site is that of The International Network of Cholesterol Skeptics. This website carries discussions by internationally renowned experts in the medical world. Just look at the membership list.


Dr Uffe Ravnskov MD, PhD , author of The Cholesterol Myths has researched this myth and published many papers on the subject. http://www.ravnskov.nu/cholesterol.htm


Risk analysis and health considerations

This site provides information from reviewed and published medical journals concerning health maintenance and risk factors. It includes tutorials about terms and concepts that are used. www.factsmart.org


On Vitamins and Minerals

The Vitamins and Nutrition Center provides accurate information on vitamins and nutrition, research on vitamins and the different effects of vitamin deficiency. The Vitamins and Nutrition Center is at http://www.vitamins-nutrition.org/
    Note that I do not take any vitamin supplements as I do not believe they are necessary if one eats properly, so I cannot guarantee the value or effectiveness of their products. The best multi-vitamin I know is liver, either beef or lamb's if the animals have been reared naturally on grass. Weight for weight, liver even contains four times as much vitamin C as apples or pears.


Uncovering the Truth about Soy

Soy is promoted as the miracle food that will feed the world while at the same time prevent and cure all manner of diseases. Now read about the dark side of soy. www.soyonlineservice.co.nz
