Eat Eggs to Improve Your Health!

You have heard all your life that eggs are a source of fat and not very healthy.  Don't eat the yolks.  Just eat the egg whites.  But over the last few years scientists have learned just how wrong that advice was.  Eggs, it turns out, are a source of healthy dietary fat (and that makes sense because those mama hens are producing food for their baby chicks).  Let's take a quick look at eggs again!

How to Lower Bad Cholesterol without Killing Yourself

If your doctor is concerned about your cholesterol levels sooner or later he will recommend you start taking statins.  Unfortunately statins are not a safe medication.  As many as 40% of people experience side effects with statins (including memory loss) and they have been shown to be mostly ineffective in preventing heart attacks in people who have not already had heart attacks.  So why do doctors prescribe so many statins?  I don't know and I am not going to dwell on that.
