Eating Your Heart Out?: Diet, Lifestyle, and Cardiac risk

By Richard C. Williams

For over a half century, careful scientific researchers have known what a good balanced diet really means, yet most of us have largely ignored this important information. We have preferred to continue in our culturally determined ruts, eating ourselves to death. Major research projects have noted how some peoples in the world have lived healthy lives past the 100-year mark in communities, such as the Inuit, an Eskimo tribe living above the Arctic circle, and traditional residents of the island of Crete, in the Mediterranean, where cardiac events are completely unknown. Well-known studies during the middle and second half of the 20th century have discovered that very low carbohydrate and high fat diets combined with moderate exercise are actually the secrets behind these cultures. In spite of all this information, the easy and popular fast foods, fast living, and little real exercise has dominated the scene in most of the developed world and especially the United States. Many popular diets, not based on sound scientific principles, have captured the fancy of most modern cultures. The result: sharply rising obesity rates, more incidence of diabetes, and almost a sure cardiac struggle for all folks over 65. This book presents both a healthy diet regime and active way of life that, together, have the potential of eliminating obesity, reducing cardiac risk, and avoiding almost constant craving for carbohydrates. There are also detailed-easy to follow-protocols and recipes to guide us all on our way to a happier, healthier life. And a sustainable one. Read about it, try it, and change your life.
