❤️ Reversing heart disease | Plant based Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn


OILS & ANIMAL PROTEIN INJURE ENDOTHELIAL CELLS HE SAYS. WHAT ARE THESE? 

 

Endothelial cells are a type of cell that form a thin lining on the inside of blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and the heart, acting as a barrier between the bloodstream and surrounding tissues, regulating the exchange of substances between them; essentially, they are the primary cells that make up the inner layer of blood vessels, controlling blood flow and maintaining vascular health.  

·                            Function:

They regulate the movement of nutrients, fluids, and waste products between the blood and tissues, manage blood pressure by producing substances like nitric oxide, and play a role in inflammation and immune response. 

·                            Location:

They form a single layer of cells lining the inside of all blood vessels, including arteries, veins, and capillaries. 

·                            Importance in health:

Proper endothelial function is crucial for maintaining cardiovascular health, as dysfunction can contribute to conditions like atherosclerosis and hypertension. 

 To Pete:     Wow, the more I study the more I believe. Pete, to you it isn't important to change your diet as you're healthy & hopefully stay that way. But I'm facing death. I have to know these facts & follow them. And I am not aware of ever following a bad diet - I was WAY WAY above most Americans, & yet I came to this condition......most people don't know what is going on inside their bodies. Autopsies he explains, show that even young people in America are HEADED for heart disease. People from 17 to 30 were starting to have heart disease - autopsies show.  You get the strokes, heart attacks, way after - decades after the injuries & wrong eating. It also affects diabetes & dementia - it can all be prevented by the whole food plant based diet he says. 

Pete refers to a study on olive oil that says it’s good for these cells. I answer:

 Who did the study / report on olive oil?  Be sure that you know who did it as if it's the olive oil INDUSTRY then it might be BOGUS -     He explains that many studies are done by the industries that BENEFIT from the sale of certain items

            I saw the study, did not see who ordered it. And sometimes it's sneaky, they {the industry} hide under different names

 From William:

          Hi Rasa 

My wife just boils the vegetables. I sprinkle herbs on vegetables and soups and put spices on things like porridge. 

 

If your use to eating foods with strong flavors then it can be hard to eat food that are not like this. But herbs and spices can help. Traditional Mexican food is good for you but because its mostly beans which tastes bland. So they use hot spices to give it flavor. They do the same in India.  I personally don't like hot spices so I don't use them. The only hot spice I use is ginger.  

To me eating a healthy diet is more important than having bad health and taking loads of medicine. But I know some people don't think like this and have become addicted to junk food. 

 The food industry has many sneaky tricks. Back it the 1980s scientists found that eating eggs will give you high cholesterol and the sale of eggs went down. So the egg industry hit back, they employed corrupt scientists to do studies that said the opposite to this and got the public totally confused, so many people now believe that eggs don't cause cholesterol or that high cholesterol wasn't a problem.  This happened to my wife's brother, the doctor told him his cholesterol was high, but he read on the internet that you need not worry about cholesterol and didn't do anything about it. Then while fishing he had a heart attack and died.      william

           Hi friends,

                William I used to hate hot spice, but when I learned that is is REAL GOOD for you, I learned to like it.  Dr. Richard Schultze, herbalist, swears by cayenne pepper, the hotter the better. He said it can STOP a heart attack OR ALLEVIATE IT! I now drink hot sauce out of a bottle, 1 or 2 TBsp daily - have several bottles so I don't run out.  I also learned from him to eat Hawthorn berries which I take every day in capsule form & also have them in pod form to make later, tea I guess.  Hawthorn berries rebuild heart tissue.

    Pete like I said, you have nothing to worry abut if your heart is good so do what makes you happy.

    As for me, this is my third day & I know I will get used to this. It's like the celibacy or the lack of it. The doors open or close in my MIND. Once that's done, I don't desire the thing that is forbidden, & I desire the thing that is permitted. It's my virtue of OBEDIENCE which is one of my 2 strongest virtues. My other one is ZEAL for the Kingdom of God.

    After a decent study on the two items: NITRIC OXIDE & ENDOTHELIAL CELLS I am convinced he is right. He is NOT abut trying to make money or con anyone, like that Dr. Goo Goo {not his real name} who's endlessly annoying me with his ads about what's good or not good - all controversial, most the opposite or different from what Dr. Essel says. Someting about lepkins or lektins - which no one ever heard of so we listen to him & think he knows something we don't. It gets mysterious as he says we have to know our METABOLIC TYPE & it seems he wants to bamboozle us into thinking he knows things we don't & we have to go to him & pay money to find out what he knows. He to me is a con man trying to make money. He does not give details until you spend money - a sure sign this is a businessman rather than a humanitarian.

 

    But Dr. Essel is a true HUMANITARIAN. He explains CLEARLY again & again in FREE presentations. He says the basics in each video - some he gives new info.  So he has a book - big deal - books don't sell. His wife & daughter have a site where they give recipees, the daughter's husband also helps. They do all this for the sake of helping people, not gaining 'filthy lucre'. The daughter also has a recipee book - again - they don't charge for the free videos on You tube.

 

       And he is SO PATIENT. He doesn't get MAD at the people who disagree, challenge him & argue or dissent. He just keeps explaining. Whereas Dr. Schultze gets ANGRY & peope love it when he LASHES OUT at those who argue & argue re good health, who want to keep their bad habits & doing what they enjoy even if it's killing them. Dr. Schultze is also a vegan.

    I learned something. Dr. Essel said that not all vegans are good - he's helped some of them - he said they eat 'glazed donuts.' That's the 'demon' he's named a few times, where Dr. Schultze's pet demon is 'pepperoni pizza - people stuff themselves with that & when he presents an herbal tea they balk, fearing they might drink too much, lol. Today they call this diet 'plant based diet' instead of vegan.

    Here is our PROBLEM. We are stubborn. Even when we know what is right or wrong, we want to do what we want to do, like smoking, drugs, being uncaring or mean to someone - even 'the least of these.' We are selfish & egotistical. These are human traits. We don't want to humble ourselves & obey, even when someone tells us something we think might be true, we resist it because we don't want to do it.

    Dr. Essel explained how he gets people to comply.  By RESPECTING THEM. He said the other docs complain when people hear them in a 10-15 min. office visit. But he gives them a 6 hour seminar. He calls each person in it himself personally & answers questions. He gives them bookets which explain everyting, he follows up with them. And his rate is about 87% compliance - the other guys it's real low as they just BARK at you or state what you 'should do' slam, bam, thank you ma'am & you're supposed to do it. They don't put in the TIME.

    All I can say is I believe him & I'm going to try to reverse this disease & live as long as God wants me to.     Rasa

  1. I looked at the study again, Rasa, and I don't think the study authors or institutes have any sort of links to the olive oil industry:

    Conflicts of Interest
    The authors declare no conflict of interest.

    It is true that in various industries there are sneaky ways of hiding blatant conflicts of interest, but I cannot seem to find any here thus far.

    You are indeed correct that since you are facing death, you need to be far more conservative with your diet than the average person would. This is basically a sort of "Hail Mary" to reverse your heart disease, and I think it will work, God willing.

    Remember, my field is chemistry, not nutrition, so I am hardly an expert here.

    At this point, I can't say I really have any further advice for you in regards to heart health, except the famous Billy Joel lyric: "Working to hard will give you a heart attack, ack, ack, ack, ack...". (Not sure why he was stuttering, but certainly correct regardless.)

    Best of luck 🍀
    Pete

  2. And definitely the spices and hot peppers are a great idea. I enjoy those myself as well 😀
