Dear Dr. Barad,
Thanks 5/5 for you clarifying post.
In my case:
After the consumption of 'statins' to control my cholesterol etc. my
'homocysteine' levels went up to 27 whereas the normal levels are from 9 to
12.5. I had to drastically ingest 'folic acid' via tabs and spinach, which I
still do.
I fully endorse what you have stated.
B/rgds

My reply:
This is in addition to my earlier views. Lie, if repeated often enough and
long enough, people believe it and it eventually becomes the truth. It is
an
erroneous belief that 'heart attacks result from elevated blood
cholesterol
that is due primarily to increased saturated fat consumption'. This myth
has
been perpetrated and perpetuated by the cholesterol cartel of low-fat
food;
by lipid lowering drug manufacturers, by prestigious organizations and by
physicians that are the recipients of drug manufacturers' largesse. They
don't even want anyone know the actual composition of saturated fat that
is
contained in coconut oil. This is the very fate why saturated fat rich
coconut oil received bad name!
Best regards,
U. G. Barad
