Heart Disease has many symptomologies including, Atherosclerosis, Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), Carotid Artery Disease (CAD), Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), Hypertension, Hypercholesterolemia, Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) and Death
According to my theory ALL of the symptoms or conditions of Heart Disease are ALL the result of an excess of dietary, environmental, respiratory and/or metabolic acid that have not been properly eliminated through the four channels of elimination. The four channels of elimination include urination, defecation, respiration and perspiration.
When metabolic and/or dietary acidic waste is not eliminated through the four channels of elimination they are either solidified by the body with alkaline compounds or pushed out into the connective and fatty tissues away from the organs and glands that sustain life.
Acidic metabolic and dietary waste when not eliminated from the blood or lymph fluid is solidified and buffered with alkaline compounds such as sodium, potassium, calcium and/or LDL cholesterol forming plaque or acid crystals that build up on the inside of the arteries, veins and lymphatic vessels. Plaque is made up of alkalizing fats, cholesterol, calcium, sodium bicarbonate, potassium and other alkaline substances found in the blood and interstitial fluids. Over time, acid bound plaque hardens or crystallizes forming a solid mass and narrows the arteries, veins and lymphatic vessels as seen in this picture. The flow of oxygen-rich blood and alkalizing compounds to the tissues, organs and glands that sustain life is reduced due to the narrowing of the blood and lymph vessels. The restriction of blood and lymph circulation and the build-up of metabolic and/or dietary acids can then lead to tissue, organ and gland ulceration and/or degeneration causing a stroke or heart attack leading to heart failure and sudden death.
Heart Disease is Epidemic – Something Has Really Gone Wrong!
Today over 25% of the US population takes expensive and highly acidic statin medications and despite the fact we have reduced the fat content of our diets, more Americans will die this year of heart disease than ever before caused by acidic drugs and acidic lifestyles.
Statistics from the American Heart Association show that 75 million Americans currently suffer from heart disease, 20 million have diabetes and 57 million have pre-diabetes. These disorders are affecting younger and younger people in greater numbers every year.
No health topic is more important, more full of misinformation, and more complex than understanding the cause and effect relationship between inflammation and cardiovascular disease. This article tackles the four most common conditions associated with inflammation and “heart disease”, including all of its symptomologies: hypertension, stroke, coronary heart disease, and congestive heart failure. I believe the information herein will be life changing and life saving for all heart dis-ease problems.
Cardiovascular or heart disease is the number one killer in the United States, and yet it does not induce terror or fear as cancer does. The reason for this is because people are horrified of the acidic cancer treatments or chemotherapy, radiation and surgery and NOT the disease itself. Alas, heart health is frequently ignored in lieu of cancer concerns, with breast cancer being an excellent example of this short sightedness. Case in point: For every woman who dies of breast cancer or from the cancer treatments (70 percent or higher) 11 more will die from coronary heart disease. About 60% of heart disease deaths happen suddenly in people who had no previous symptoms and normal LDL cholesterol levels. These people simply collapse unexpectedly. The real lesson here is to be educated, as you will see. Everything that we have been taught about cardiovascular/heart disease is WRONG! That’s right EVERYTHING! If the so-called experts whom many of us have been listening to were right, than cardiovascular/heart disease would not be the #1 failure of modern-day medicine.
Adhering to a critical holistic principle of non-invasive alternative medicine or true health care, it is important that we never adopt the foolishness of a typical physician, who will obsessively focus on only the organ displaying obvious symptoms. It is wiser to treat the whole patient instead of an organ, which means correcting problems with both lifestyle and diet. As is the case for practically all other chronic dis-eases! A heart patient usually brings the dis-ease upon himself or herself with his or irresponsible acidic lifestyle behavior for a period of many years, and only he/she can get himself/herself out of this acidic mess. Acidic toxic drugs can suppress symptoms for a while, like they do, but real change comes only from real changes in what you eat, what you drink and what you think. Merely masking the symptoms with toxic acidic drugs is the health policy of fools. The time bomb for a heat attack or stroke is still ticking, even though the timer has been hidden from view with useless modern-day big Pharma drugs.
Four Japanese researchers published an analysis on cholesterol guidelines and statin drugs in the April 2015 edition of the Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism.
Dr. Malcolm Kendrick, the Scottish doctor who wrote The Great Cholesterol Con recently stated on his blog that he has read the entire 116 page review:
For many years I have told anyone who will listen that, if you have a high cholesterol level, you will live longer. Equally, if you have a low cholesterol level, you will die younger. This, ladies and gentlemen, is a fact. The older you become the more beneficial it is to have a high cholesterol level.
This fact has become more difficult to demonstrate recently as so many people have been put on statins that the association between cholesterol levels and mortality has been twisted, bent and pumelled into the weirdest shapes imaginable. However, Japan, provides some very interesting data.
High cholesterol levels are recognized as a major cause of atherosclerosis. However, for more than half a century some have challenged this notion. But which side is correct, and why can’t we come to a definitive conclusion after all this time and with more and more scientific data available? We believe the answer is very simple: for the side defending this so-called cholesterol theory, the amount of money at stake is too much to lose the fight.
The issue of cholesterol is one of the biggest issues in medicine where the law of economy governs. Moreover, advocates of the theory take the notion to be a simple, irrefutable ‘fact’ and self-explanatory. They may well think that those who argue against the cholesterol theory—actually, the cholesterol ‘hypothesis’— are mere eccentrics.
We, as those on the side opposing the hypothesis, understand their argument very well. Indeed, the first author of this supplementary issue (TH) had been a very strong believer and advocate of the cholesterol hypothesis up until a couple of years after the Scandinavian Simvastatin Survival Study (4S) reported the benefits of statin therapy in The Lancet in 1994. To be honest with the readers, he used to persuade people with high cholesterol levels to take statins. He even gave a talk or two to general physicians promoting the benefits of statins. Terrible, unforgivable mistakes given what we came to know and clearly know now.
In this supplementary issue, we explore the background to the cholesterol hypothesis utilizing data obtained mainly from Japan—the country where anti-cholesterol theory campaigns can be conducted more easily than in any other countries. But why is this? Is it because the Japanese researchers defending the hypothesis receive less support from pharmaceutical companies than researchers overseas do? Not at all. Because Japanese researchers are indolent and weak? No, of course not. Because the Japanese public is skeptical about the benefits of medical therapy? No, they generally accept everything physicians say; unfortunately, this is also complicated by the fact that physicians don’t have enough time to study the cholesterol issue by themselves, leaving them simply to accept the information provided by the pharmaceutical industry.
Reading through this supplementary issue, it will become clear why Japan can be the starting point for the anti-cholesterol theory campaign. The relationship between all-cause mortality and serum cholesterol levels in Japan is a very interesting one: mortality actually goes down with higher total or low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, as reported by most Japanese epidemiological studies of the general population. This relationship cannot be observed as easily in other countries, except in elderly populations where the same relationship exists worldwide.
The mortality from coronary heart disease in Japan has accounted for around just 7% of all cause mortality for decades; a much lower rate than seen in Western countries. The theory that the lower the cholesterol levels are, the better is completely wrong in the case of Japan—in fact, the exact opposite is true. Because Japan is unique in terms of cholesterol-related phenomena, it is easy to find flaws in the cholesterol hypothesis.
Based on data from Japan, we propose a new direction in the use of cholesterol medications for global health promotion; namely, recognizing that cholesterol is a negative risk factor for all-cause mortality and re-examining our use of cholesterol medications accordingly. This, we believe, marks the starting point of a paradigm shift in not only how we understand the role cholesterol plays in health, but also how we provide cholesterol treatment.
The guidelines for cholesterol are thus another area of great importance. Indeed, the major portion of this supplementary issue (from Chapter 4 onward) is given over to our detailed examination and critique of guidelines published by the Japan Atherosclerosis Society. We dedicate a large portion of this work to these guidelines because they are generally held in high regard in Japan, and the country’s public health administration mechanism complies with them without question. Physicians, too, tend to simply obey the guidelines; their workloads often don’t allow them to explore the issue rigorously enough to learn the background truth and they are afraid of litigation if they don’t follow the guidelines in daily practice.
These chapters clearly describe some of the flaws in the guidelines—flaws which are so serious that it becomes clear that times must change and the guidelines must be updated. Our purpose in writing this supplementary issue is to help everyone understand the issue of cholesterol better than before, and we hope that we lay out the case for why a paradigm shift in cholesterol treatment is needed, and sooner rather than later. We would like to stress in closing that we have received no funding in support of writing or publishing this supplementary issue and our conflicts of interest statements are given in full at the end.
The Statin Scam: Don’t Let it Ruin Your Health!
The statin scam has been exposed, but there are powerful sources at work in the medical system to keep it going.
One of the best documentaries exposing the statin scam and interviewing doctors in the industry who have exposed it, was published in 2013 on ABC in Australia. The medical authorities were not successful in preventing it from being aired on TV, but they have removed almost all copies from YouTube now, and forced ABC to remove them from their website.
We currently are using copies by Dr. Eades posted on his Vimeo account. Take some time to watch these important documentaries produced by medical doctors on the statin drug scam, and be informed!
