Jing Luo, Negative Energy & Nutrients (6)

According to one researcher he noticed that the tempo in medical field does not always match with the scientific discovery and he further added that we do not have time to wait and if we were to wait for medical development or final application, it may then be too late for we may not survive that long. You may say it is nonsensical but it is not. Just to illustrate the point it was stated that during the 70s a well known researcher , pathologist and professor Dr. Kilmer McCully had noted that there was some correlation between heart attach or diseases and homocysteine and if the level of homocysteine was high and far above the level of 9 then there was a high probability of getting stroke or heart attack and that homocysteine was the main culprit of stroke and heart diseases but such finding was dismissed at that time as nonsensical however about 20 years later this was subsequently acknowledged to be the correct finding. Dr. Kilmer McCully was vindicated yet today most doctors still talk about bad cholesterol as the main factor and seldom check on the level of homocysteine and more often than not doctors will insist on the checking of the cholesterol level which is a must but not that of homocysteine ! We also often heard that friends who passed away due to heart attack but their cholesterol levels were at the acceptable normal level or they did not have history of heart diseases. How do we explain this ? The so called bad cholesterol is the essential ingredient for our building our body cells and it is only bad when it is being oxidised into the form of fatty streak which attaches itself to the lining of the artery. The fatty streak is an inflammatory lesion and will cause the formation of plaque and if the situation is not checked it will slowly lead to the formation of thicker plaque and hardening and narrowing of the arteries. It is also reported in medical journal that those who have osteoporosis usually tend to have high level of homocysteine. Thus whether there is a link between osteoporosis and homocysteine ? In order to prevent osteoporosis why not take step to lower the level of homocysteine rather than waiting for the final confirmation by the relevant authority since it is also link to heart diseases and stroke ? You can find many articles on homocysteine if you make searches on the internet. If one can lower the level of homocysteine and at the same time increased the level of antioxidant then many diseases caused by free radicals can be avoided.
