Eliminate Your Bad Cholesterol while continuing to eat meat
Linus Pauling had studied chemistry, physics and mathematics in the 20s at the California Institute of Technology.
He received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1954 and the Nobel Peace Prize in 1962. He has been honored more than 40 times by universities.
He died in 1994 at the venerable age of 93 years, thanks to medical experiments at the “Institute of Science and Medicine”
One of the leitmotifs of Linus Pauling is its warning against fast sugars (refined sugars).
It indeed demonstrates in his book “How to live better and feel better” than the impact of fat on cholesterol is negligible.
According to him, and he cites a fascinating experience to prove it is the refined sugars that are responsible for the presence of bad cholesterol in the blood.
This experiment, conducted in 1964 and 1970 by Milton Winitz, focused on 18 subjects. During 6 months, they were isolated and their food was controlled. They were fed early without giving them refined sugars.
The concentration of cholesterol in the blood before the experiment was 227 mg / dl. After 2 weeks of diet alone, it had fallen to 173, then 2 weeks later, 160.
In delivering refined sugars in their diet, cholesterol increased to 178, then 208.
By removing again refined sugars and replacing them with carbohydrates in a few weeks, the rate had dropped to 150!
Boards of Linus Pauling
1. Do not put sugar in your tea or your coffee. Avoid putting on the table sugar.
2. Do not eat sugary cereal in the morning. Some industrial preparations contain up to 50% sugar. Take instead of cereal without sugar, even if you sprinkle a little sugar on it if you can not do without.
3. Do not eat sugary desserts at every meal. This does not mean that you must refuse dessert when you are prompted with friends, but the restaurant, for example, fruit is preferable.
4. Do not drink sugary drinks like “cola” or “lemonade”. These drinks contain large amounts of sugar.
5. Take vitamin C. This will also help you destroy cholesterol. A 1982 study (Fidanza, and Audizio Mastroiacovo) showed that daily intake of 3 grams of vitamin C decreased cholesterol by 18%.
So no need to eliminate fatty foods from your diet. After all, your brain is almost entirely fat.
