  And the original natives of Alaska ate almost nothing but meat and fat and 
never had heart disease before being introduced to processed foods.

exactly follows the use of industrial oils as food.

    Mindblowing expose of the whole scam.

    How to LOWER cholesterol, first IF we look as to why the body produces 
cholesterol we would find it is the bodies attempt to HEAL.  Number ONE 
culprits are grains, sugar and starches these trigger off insulin production  
that damages the walls of the arteries and the body then PRODUCES cholesterol 
to repair the damage.
    So the true trick to lowering cholesterol production is to lower the quick 
release carbs that are CAUSING THE PROBLEM!!!
    Omega 3's helps lower the free radicals (they also damage the walls) so it 
is helpful as well. but the main thing is to lower the carbs!!!
    Now the reason to take vit B's is the sugars and starches also lower them 
as well as the Omega 3's.  But in either case lowering grains, sugar and 
starches are the way to solve a LOT of health problems not just cholesterol.
    It will also lower inflammation (often the cause of pain) so there is a lot 
of incentive if you are sick or want to be healthier to lower the grains (wheat 
being the worse of the grains by the way)
