Fish Oils Don't Prevent Heart Disease

A very large study in Italy reported in May 2013 in the New England Journal of Medicine was conclusive in proving that fish oil was completely ineffective in preventing heart disease for a large group of high risk patients. Dr. Eric Topol editor-in-chief of Medscape and leading Cardiologist, recommended discontinuing all fish oil supplementation for the prevention of heart disease. The real truth about fish oil is finally being championed by cardiovascular doctors in mainstream medicine industry.

Another breakthrough study reported in Food & Nutrition Sciences Sept 2013 stated that the human body simply cannot metabolise the huge doses of EPA & DHA found in fish oil supplements. The study says 'EPA & DHA are adulterated oxidised 'derivatives' carried by LDL-Cholesterol into the arterial system and dumped as plaque where they can clog up our arteries.  Scientists now believe that the body can make sufficient EPA & DHA for optimum health benefits from the 'parent' essential oils and we actually don't need to take  fish oil supplements for heart health. Parent Essential Oils ( PEO's)  are cold pressed organic unadulterated omega 6 and omega 3 seed and plant oils including sunflower, borage, evening primrose, flax oil and pumpkin seed oil. 

'Greens' Neutralise Harmful Diet Toxins

Ever wondered why domestic animals (dogs and cats) eat grass when they feel sick? The answer is that grass is rich in chlorophyll, which helps cleanse the body of unhealthy toxins. Whilst we humans aren't obvious grass eaters, we do eat something similar but more trendy which gives the same effect as dogs get. All edible 'greens' including; Barley Grass Juice, Wheat Grass & Kamut contain two different types of chlorophyll (chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b) that has been proven in clinical studies effective at blocking or neutralising uptake of many harmful toxins added or found in foods. These include; the liver toxin aflatoxin-B₁ found in peanuts, chemicals found in tobacco smoke, and nitric amines found in cooked meats.

The binding of chlorophyll to these potential carcinogens may interfere with gastrointestinal absorption of potential carcinogens, reducing the amount that reaches susceptible tissues. After studying the clinical research it seems logical that high chlorophyll foods like Wheat, Barley and Kamut would have cleansing and neutralising properties, that undoubtedly caused  many leading health pioneers including the  late Dr. Bernard Jensen, holistic health pioneer and author of Chlorella, Gem of the Orient, to state “Chlorophyll is the greatest natural tissue cleansing agent known to man'. 

Clinical studies also show that chlorophyll can form tight molecular complexes with certain chemicals known or suspected to cause cancer and eliminate them from the body. It makes sense to eat a daily diet containing 3-4  portions of  cooked steamed 'greens' like kelp, spinach, green cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprouts, beans and peas. If this is not possible take dried greens or an organic green powder supplement. Naturopath Linda Page, Ph.D., in her book "Healthy Healings Detoxification: Programs to Cleanse, Purify and Renew" quotes the fact that alkalizing minerals in greens like 'wheatgrass juice complement the blood-cleansing effects of chlorophyll, helping to reduce inflammation and other ill effects caused by overly acid conditions.
