Introduction

At the turn of the century, heart disease and arteriosclerosis were virtually unheard of. Today, however, they are the Western world’s number one killers, with cancer running right behind.

As a practitioner who has examined many people, I know that clogged arteries and poor circulation are an unfortunate fact of life for many. While mortality statistics at the turn of the century are not altogether reliable, there is always a consistent figure for deaths from heart attacks or heart disease: between 6-8%. By the 1950’s, that number had climbed to 30%. Today, almost 50% of all deaths in the United Sates and Australia are from cardiovascular disease (CVD) or coronary heart disease (CHD). What went wrong?

As we shall see in this little book, the answer will surprise you. Most of the public (as well as most medical professionals) believes that CVD and CHD are mostly caused by an improper diet and in this they are correct. Where they go wrong, however, is in the elements of that diet.

It is very common to hear such nutritional mantras as, “Saturated fat clogs arteries,” and “Don’t eat too much cholesterol—it’s bad for your heart.” These assertions are false. Surprised? You should be. The very diet that has been recommended to reduce heart disease by many medical and nutritional practitioners for the past 50 years is the very diet that CAUSES it!

Heart disease is a very complex rubric of different causes with diet being a major, but not the only component. It is hoped that his book will enlighten all who read it. It is hoped that you will avoid heart disease by following the instructions in this volume.

Why we like this book

It tells the truth about what is really contributing to the continual rise of heart diseases in this country. You’ll be relieved to know that whole foods like eggs, raw milk, raw milk products, and unprocessed meats are not the cause. A must read for anyone with heart disease in their family history. It’s a quick and easy read. For a much more in depth look at the subject, check out The Cholesterol Myths.

Lastly, though we don't agree with every point the author makes or some of his/her suggested methods, we have found this book to be informative and worth recommending. However, by selling this book, we are not recommending other works by the author or his/her chosen lifestyle.

HI,
I should have written this note ages ago. Herbs have transformed my family's life!!! We have entered a stage of health instead of illness, and have benefited amazingly from the use of herbs. I so appreciate the information and articles you supply, as well as the great priced herbs, great shipping and great quality. Thank you, thank you and thank you again.

My husband thought I was a little off the deep end with how much I use herbs. But, when he saw my normally ill son transformed into a healthy boy, he decided to try what I offered him. When he saw how quickly he himself became better, he too became convinced of the benefits of herbs.

I am a registered nurse, and have found that modern medicine is generally a waste of one's money and time. I myself avoid the doctor's office as much as possible (except for work, of course). There is a time and a place, but most people go when they don't need to. It is disheartening to see so many flocks to the doctors when herbs would cure what ails them. But instead, they are on prescription after prescription after prescription which takes away any health which they may have once had.

I am also the healthiest employee at my facility. I never get the flu shot, and I don't get the flu, and I don't get the illnesses that sick people bring in, while my colleagues often do.

I would like to offer a remedy…

I suffer from many urinary tract infections related to abnormalities from birth. These infections have been getting worse over the years, and the last two were extremely painful. Within 2 hours of the first symptoms, I could barely walk. Over the last 18 months, I began developing allergies to the antibiotics so, on the last infection, I decided to try herbs, and was astounded at the results. No more antibiotics for me.

I took 1 tsp. of raw apple cider vinegar every 15 minutes, 2 homemade garlic pills every 6 hours, 2 homemade Cayenne pepper pills every hour, a dropper full of The Immune Booster every 8 hours, and the infection was gone faster than the antibiotic usually relieves it. Since antibiotics usually take 5-10 days, I decided to follow up the above regimen w/ 1tsp. of apple cider vinegar, 2 garlic pills, 2 Cayenne pills, and The Immune booster 3-4 times a day for a week. That was October 1st, and I haven't had a problem. No re-occurrence, no side effects.

Thank you for your time, your wonderful articles, your wonderful store, and your wonderful herbs.

Gratefully yours,
~J
