Part I presents the massive amount of scientific & medical evidence indicating that cholesterol & animal fat in the diet has no significant relationship to the probability of developing heart disease. It is presented in language understandable to both the lay person & the health professional. At present, this evidence is all but ignored by the medical establishment, even though it has been generated for the most part by individuals in the most prestigious medical institutions & universities. In a number of important studies reviewed by the author total mortality was actually higher in those persons on the low cholesterol regimens. The author discusses a number of dietary factors that appear from the scientific literature to be very closely linked to the future probability of developing, or not developing, coronary heart disease. These factors include such things as particular kinds of fish, certain nutrients-including certain vitamins & minerals, & certain types of fiber. The destructiveness of dietary sugar & heated vegetable oil (polyunsaturates) to the health of both animals & man is discussed. This is a book that could change medical opinion in a most controversial area. The book contains favorable comments from two Ph.D's, one of whom is a retired Professor Emeritus from Purdue University. Available through American Lite Company, 1118 Lombardy Rd., P.O.
