31 Tips and Comments on Health & Heart Disease

About omega-3's: "...relatively simple dietary changes achieved greater reductions in risk of all-cause and coronary heart disease mortality .. than any of the cholesterol-lowering studies to date. This is emphasized by the finding that the unprecedented reduction ... was not associated with differences in total cholesterol.." This is from a landmark editorial in Circulation about the 70% [!] reduction in deaths in those given 2 table-spoons of canola oil per day, most as a non-hydrogenated margarine given to the family. One measly tea-spoon of flax (linseed) oil has as much omega-3 (alpha-linolenic). Flax, a unique nutritional power seed.
