Avocados? You gotta be kidding.

100% of the people who have eaten Avocados have died.

Met ol’ Wilford at the Alta Ski Resort in Utah years ago. Happened to sit across from him in one of the restaurants for a noon bowl of chili. Nice guy and just like he appears on TV. Also saw him a few other times on the slopes.

My heart is in big trouble because I don’t like any of the 10 things listed.

My heart told me it really likes chili, cheese fries.

My wife has tried to foist Salmon on me, and I just cannot stand the taste of it. I don’t do soy, or flaxseed either, but the rest we eat.

Cholesterol theory IS a myth in the same vein as AGW. Read “The Great Cholesterol Con by Malcolm Kendrick. It will open up your eyes.

Well, I can handle blackberry pie or jelly - but that’s about it.

My good cholesterol level is right in the middle to low end of normal, and my bad cholesterol is at the very low end of the normal range.

I’d die if I had to eat most of the stuff on that list, although I love salmon and most beans.

It seems like the entire emphasis was on Omega-3 fatty acid. But while it isn’t bad, this isn’t the only way to go with heart health.

(That being said, if you will eat oatmeal, you might try oat bran hot cereal. It has a different texture, and somewhat more flavor.)

A lot of the strain on the heart happens from pre-diabetic and diabetic conditions, and kidney stress. Within the last few weeks it has been learned that a lot of this stress can be alleviated by taking 300 mg of ordinary Vitamin B-1 (Thiamine) a day for three months. An excellent idea not just for diabetics.

The heart is very dependent on the balance of minerals in the body. It is especially reliant on sodium, calcium and potassium, magnesium, iron, iodine, and even some trace minerals. The better the balance, the less stress on the heart. And lots of things can cause imbalances that should be addressed.

If you live inland, you might consider getting a bit a sea salt at the grocery, that when used occasionally will restore the tiny amounts of rare trace elements not usually found inland.

Don’t do oatmeal (the smell - blech), salmon, flaxseed or soy. Avocados, olive oil and berries daily if I could. Legumes, yes. The other two yes.
