Heart Problem: Why you should avoid Statins

May I ask whether taking flaxseed oil is helpful?:) tks.


As you get older the bodies ability to process flaxseed to extract the DHA will degrade.

If you are not a vegetarian taking fish oil is recommended over flaxseed because its a more direct way of getting DHA.

Do a google & you will see the many benefits of omega 3 is necessary to prevent high blood pressure, heart, brain, helps keep blood vessels flexible,...

However be aware that our seas are polluted , so look out for molecularly distilled fish oil. This process will get rid of all pollutants from fish oil.
 
Sorry for being slightly out of the topic. I usually get flatulence and minor gastric when I take Omega 3 supplements. So, I had to abandon it altogether. Can anybody shed some light on this or does anybody here experienced the same?
 
just avoid meat and meat related products. meat has cholesterol, you dun need the extra from meat, your body manufacture cholesterol at the right amount for you.

I don't have any problems taking fish oil before a meal.
However if you are sensitive to fish oils make sure you first have a meal before taking fish oil.

May also want to experiment with different brands as it may be a purity issue.

I was told that too much Omega 3 is bad because though it helps to reduce those bad stuffs but unfortunately one side effects of long term consumption is the thinning of blood vessel...
 
and say your prayers:D:D:D

We all have to go sometime but I think whats important is the quality of life & death. I'm starting to hear more & more friends, colleagues, acquaintances dying of cancer, a painful way to go. :(

If religion is important then pray. Some do charity work. Some old elitist is going around making speeches when there are big problems in his own backyard. To each his own :rolleyes:

For me i dun eat meat so that less animals are being killed for food as that is a very huge evil. It makes me happy when i do this daily.

Animals has their right to live a life like anybody else.

is scotts cod liver oil good enough?

It's an oldie, that brand has been around for as long as I can remember but I cannot recommend it. Nowadays the pollution of the seas is a reality & if you look at this product they don't mention if the product has been cleaned up via molecular distillation.

I know that the products the fish oil GNC carries has been molecularly distilled. So too are some brands found in Malaysia ie. JB.

GNC & Natures Farm has good products but unfortunately they are expensive
If you want reasonably good health products at cheaper prices look at Malaysia. I buy mine from the USA from www.iherb.com & they have fresh stocks & wide selection.
 
For me i dun eat meat ......


Humans are herbivores. Not everyone can be a vegetarian lah.

I came across a book which explains our diet preferences based on the blood type we have :eek:

This so called blood thinning effect is what people with heart problems want. It helps the blood flow more freely. Some people take aspirin to thin their blood, but taking fish oil is better.

In the old days aspirin was freely available over the counter. It was the panadol of the old days :)

As in everything, use moderation when taking any health supplements.

My kakis are more vulnerable to heart attacks. In fact more than half of my soccer team players from my teenage days have suffered heart attacks in recent years and all of them are under 50. :rolleyes:

The rest of us suspect it could be due to the diet we were on during those teenage days..... we trained at Farrer Park and before training it will be teh tarik and prata at the nearby sarabat stalls........ after training will also adjourn to the sarabat stalls for more teh tarik, kambing soup, briyani, tulang, mee goreng, mutton steak, murtabak etc to replace the energy expended during training.

We were on that kind of unhealthy diet for years :( ........ it's not surprising many of us kenna heart attacks in our later years........ can we sue FAS?

I know that my problems are a result of drinking too much sugar. It caused type II diabetes which lead to hardening of the arteries.

However the root cause may be due to pollution. Tests have shown that I have very high levels of heavy metals: for lead, zinc, ... Spore is a very polluted place with so many cars which may explain the high incidence of cancers & heart problems.

As we get older the heavy metals & man made chemicals build up in our bodies & start to interfere with the bodies functions. That's why treatments like angioplasty, open heart surgery are only temporary, its like putting a plaster over a wound. If you don't detox the heavy metals out of the body, the same problem will return.


Anyone in their 40's should start doing chelation therapy(heavy metal detoxing). Doing preventive intravenous chelation or oral chelation will avoid future problems.
 
Zn is not a heavy metal

may i know what was your last occupation? Because its really rare for someone to have high level of Pb in his blood level. The most likely cause of it was due to occupational exposure.

I work in an office, stuck behind a computer screen day in day out. Hearing alot of people getting cancers & some of it is lung cancer. There must be many airtight buildings in Spore where one is exposed to all those chemicals in carpets, furniture, laser print toner,....

With the high car population in Spore people are exposed on a daily basis to car exhaust. Even if the fuel nowadays is unleaded its still unhealthy.

You will find that lead & mercury(dental fillings) contamination is very common. Go to www.iherb.com & type "lead" & alot of products are available to counter this problem. It's not a matter of "if" you will get lead contamination but how much is already in your body :( Don't forget about all the other nasty chemicals in our environment that's just as bad.

Other than doing chelation, I have an FIR(Far infrared) sauna which I use to sweat out the bad stuff. It's also helps to vasodilate the blood vessels.

Too Many people are focused on cholesterol as the cause of heart problems. Its musch more complicated than just cholesterol :rolleyes:
 
the danger of mercury was overstated. there is a reason why Hg was used as dental filling in the past due to its inertness and our body do not really absorb Hg that well. its way below the threshold of the body.

nevertheless, Hg filling has long being banned so this is a myth that our dental filling has Hg.

close office environment or old building risk getting cancer is not due to heavy metal, but Asbestos. but even that has being banned in new building, many of the old one are in the process of removing it but the pace was ....... i was involved ever in a test on the amount of Pb that our car released into a section of a busy road somewhere in dover. The amount of Pb present in the dust was way below my standard calibrated curve. so sincerely i doubt your medical report as a office worker you have a high amount of Pb in your body. unless that section of the road is all from malaysia (even malaysia used unleaded), i highly doubt anyone living in Sg can have high exposure to Pb unless you are working in paint industry etc.

chelation without doctor supervision is a danger, chelating ions are non specific they chelate all ions present including the vital one like Ca,Mg.
