Yes Omega3 has been postulated by some to be important in preventing
heart disease. The jury is still out. One of the problems with saying
that anything is at the core of preventing heart disease is separating
out confounding variables. For instance is it the omega3 that the
Eskimos eat that is responsible or is it their genetic factors or is
it something else that they do or is it their enviornment.  Separating
out different variables is extremely difficult to do. We need to work
on doing this though to try to find what really would be useful.
Hopefully your post is not an attempt to sell something.

Aloha,

  1. Hi,

    Heart disease amongst Eskimos is only 10% to that of comparable Americans or
    Danes.

    Eating fish rich in omega3 seems to be the main reason for this.

    To read on more research reports of eating fish rich in omega3 and the
    impact on the prevention of heart disease and even cancer  please look at my
    WEB page.

    I also have a txt file with several recipes for preparing exotic Asian dishes
    using a special fish rich in omega3.

    Please E mail me for details

  2. In 1990, Dr. David Nash, a renowned research cardiologist at the SUNY
    Science Center in New York, published a study in "Arteriosclerosis", an
    official journal of the American Heart Association, revealing the effect
    of high Linoleic Acid grapeseed oil on increasing HDL (the good
    cholesterol) levels.  The subjects used one ounce of grapeseed oil in
    their daily diets for four weeks and showed a 17.2% decrease in
    triglycerides.  Those with low HDL levels (less than 40 mg%), showed an
    increase of 14.6% in HDL levels.  In a second and larger study published
    in 1993 in the "Journal of the American College of Cardiology", Dr. Nash
    showed in a sample group of 56 men and women using up to 1 1/2 ounces per
    day, that grapeseed oil had the ability to raise HDL levels by 13% and
    reduce LDL levels by 7% in just three weeks.  The total cholesterol/HDL
    ratio was reduced 15.6% and the total LDL/HDL ratio was reduced by 15.3%.

    According to both the Helsinki and Framingham Heart Studies performed on
    thousands of patients over several years, each percentage increase in HDL
    affects a 3% to 4% decrease in the incidence of cardiac events.  Important
    is the fact that low HDL levels typically are noted as danger signs for
    potential cardiovascular problems.  Dr. Nashes studies, therefore,
    indicated a reduction ranging from 41% to 55% in the risk of cardiac
    envents by using high Linoleic Acid grapeseed oil in a low fat diet.
    Grapeseed oil may be the only food known to raise HDL and lower LDL in
    humans.  There are many processed foods that actually drive down the HDL
    levels including soybean and corn oil.

    In a published scientific study titled "Impotence and its Medical and
    Phychosocial correlates" they mention as "HDL devreased, the probability
    of impotence increased".

    Grapeseed oil can be used anywhere any other vegetable oil can be used and
    it is great for cooking and on salads.  It is high in natural vitamin E
    and other powerful antioxidants. It has a stable shelf life of about 2
    years without refrigeration in the absence of light. It is also one of the
    highest known sources of linoleic acid, one of the two fatty acids that
    are essential to human life and are produced only in the plant kingdom.

    Almost all vegetable oils on the market have been extensively altered to
    deorderize, decolorize and standardize them.  They are the ones sold in
    most stores and their use contributes significantly to heart disease.
    Expecialy harmful are hydrogenated or partially vegatable oils such as
    shortning and margarine.  They contain high levels of trans-fatty acids
    that disrupt the integrity of the membrane of every cell in the body and
    can actually contribute to the formation of tumors.

    Our bodies are made out of what we eat and drink.  

    Today many diseases can be reversed including pancreatic cancer, AIDS,
    diabetes and many more.  It is being done, and it is being done right now.

    You may be able to find grapeseed oil in your favorite health food store.
    If not,let us know and we can help you find it.

    Could you maybe tell me more about this "reknowned" concept?
