Dr. Kendrick mentions, down in the comments, that he intends to write an article about the right things to do to help combat CVD. Can't wait to see it!

**Two newly added articles (as of 5-12-16).

Here's part 9: https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/2016/03/16/what-causes-heart-disease-part-ix/

More great info!

Here's part 18.

Fried Mars bars????? Ewww, those don't even sound good. (To me they sound about as appealing as a green drink/smoothie . . . )



"Virtually the entire medical profession was wedded to the diet-heart cholesterol hypothesis – still is. Facts appear to have no impact whatsoever on this belief system."

Heh! Yeah, we can't let facts get in the way of our fully entrenched belief system, can we?

Part 20. This keeps getting more and more fascinating all the time. (Love the part where he calls the dood an idiot!). He, like me, does not believe that genetics is the ONLY factor involved in disease, in fact, far from it. As I've said before - I'm not my Dad or my sister yada yada. Each person is an individual and while I believe some things are genetic to a degree, I certainly do not buy into the bargain basement explanation of it being responsible for all our good and bad traits.

No way.

Saturated fat and heart disease, is it a "thing"?

Nope.

https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/2016/10/20/saturated-fat-and-heart-disease/

Contrary to everything modern medicine will tell you, your body needs saturated fats in order to function properly. It will take a century before people start to believe this, however, because they are "programmed" to believe otherwise. What a damned shame. Who knows how many people will die for a lack of good and decent information, and taking Rx drugs that just make things worse. A good many, you can be sure of that. The lies of modern medicine are not easily erased. It's the same when you tell people about the harm of vaccinations, or how our bodies actually NEED salt, etc. A long row to hoe to get people's attention in these matters.

Dr. Kendrick's take on Vitamin C & sepsis:

https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/2017/01/28/vitamin-c-an-update/

UPDATE: Below is a great article by Dr. Suzanne Humphries (I found it in the reader comment section of the above linked article by Dr. Kendrick). I'm going to also post it in the General Health topic here at this forum because I think LOTS of people should read it. Pass it on.

Here's part 26.

https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/2017/02/15/what-causes-heart-disease-part-xxvi/

The vid that went with this article isn't working (at least not for me, you have to sign in and I am not going there!) so I did an independent search and came up with two possible vid's that might be the one Dr. Kendrick included in his short article in part 26.

The first vid I had posted at the old forum would not open (said it was no longer available, imagine that).  I had also posted this one in my post at the old forum, and it played for me (hopefully it will play for a while yet).

This one just sounds interesting because of the salt aspect. BTW this was done in Davos but it was 4 years ago.

You will have to let me know what you think of his "theory". I'm especially interested in his theory vs the theory provided by WAPF.




 

Here's part XXVIII (28):

https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/2017/03/17/what-causes-heart-disease-part-xviii/

I know. The link makes it look like this is part 18, but in the series as written so far, it would be part 28. Of course, as usual, the damn blog isn't dated so I had to check on the reader comments to try to guess the approximate release date and today seems to fit.

I don't understand why bloggers, even DOCTORS, can't put a simple date on their work and why they don't understand the Roman numeral system. It's quite frightening, actually.

Sounds to me like "science" and the "fake media" (which includes all media, IMO) have been colluding for years to spread misinformation far and wide.

https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/2017/04/26/tim-noakes-found-not-guilty-of-something-or-other/

I still believe in a high fat diet, always have. But I'm not convinced that carbs, in moderation (not just "low" but in moderation on a daily basis - because every day is different) are the culprit people keep claiming them to be. Truthfully, I think more people need to take long walks, eat lots of good animal fats, well-raised meats, and not worry too much about the rest. But that's just me.

Not sure how I missed this segment of his series. It was written in mid-April and I must not have gotten a notification. Drat.

I'm going to post this link in about three places here at this forum, because it's important information for everyone to know, especially those who have heart disease OR high blood pressure. Read and learn - - and then share this. It is a fairly short but extremely valuable reading lesson, packed with information that most people would ask questions about (such as what kind of potassium should I use, what foods contain potassium, how much do I take and can it be too much, can I take it with Rx drugs, etc.) - - all of those questions are answered by Dr. Kendrick in a fairly precise way.

The overriding note to take away from this is that if you are already on a drug for high blood pressure, be careful and maybe start slowly increasing your dose. I take a supplement which contains potassium (K) aspartate (which is a combo of different types of K) and also contain a small amount of magnesium aspartate.

https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/2013/03/04/potassium-your-invisible-friend/

When a doctor tells you to cut back on potassium, tell him to eat dirt. Up your potassium intake and lower your Rx drugs, that's the answer. Doctors just want you to take more drugs so what else would they tell you to do, huh? This is why minerals are soooooooo important to all living things.

= = = = = = = = = =
NOTE:

I found this interesting to read. It comes from the comment section at Dr. Kendrick's last paper/blog on heart disease - about statins now being considered highly safe for ALL of us (which I posted in the Ask Your Questions Here) section of this forum, as I have been posting all of his messages on this subject since he started with Part 1 some time ago! Well worth reading all of them if you haven't already done so.

I hope the "Commenter" doesn't mind....

Alicia A. McDonough, Luciana C. Veiras, Claire A. Guevara, Donna L. Ralph. Cardiovascular benefits associated with higher dietary K versus lower dietary Na Evidence from population and mechanistic studies. American Journal of Physiology – Endocrinology And Metabolism, 2017; ajpendo.00453.2016 DOI: 10.1152/ajpendo.00453.20

The research team reviewed more than 70 studies related to dietary approaches to regulating high blood pressure and found that the interaction of sodium and potassium is integral to maintaining healthy blood pressure levels. The ratio of sodium to potassium excreted as urine is an indication of how much of these minerals is consumed. When dietary potassium intake is elevated, the kidneys — composed of millions of small tubes working together — shift fluid to the area near the end of the tubes where potassium secretes into the urine. This shift reduces the amount of sodium and water that’s reabsorbed into the body. In this way, high potassium diet signals the body to reduce the amount of sodium that is retained. This circular pattern regulates the levels of both minerals in the body, which in turn helps lower blood pressure. Higher intake and excretion of potassium has also been found to slow the progression of kidney and heart disease.

In addition to analyzing data about the sodium-potassium ratio and its relationship to chronic disease, the research team explored strategies to educate the public about the importance of potassium for blood pressure control and heart health. Suggested policies include:

Requiring manufacturers to print potassium content on Nutrition Facts labels,

Promoting low-cost and easily available sources of potassium (milk, dried beans, potatoes, bananas) and

Encouraging families to cook healthy, plant-based meals together.

“Consuming [an abundance] of [potassium] is a good strategy since our physiology evolved and was optimized to deal with high [potassium] low [sodium] intake, often referred to a Paleolithic diet,” wrote the research team. In other words, the human body functions best with a balance of the two nutrients.


I do NOT agree with his advice on eating strictly a plant-based diet. That is pure nonsense from a dietary point of view. People will, someday, learn that the hard way as people seem to need to learn everything. Also, don't let a "nutritionist" scare you off eating potatoes and don't let a doctor scare you off consuming proper forms of sodium. Those are my take-aways as advice to my readers.
