I am not a doctor, I am not selling anything, and this may not work for all forms of kidney stones. I had kidney cancer and I lost one of my other kidneys but I survived. Then for some reason that doctors said they don’t know why my only remaining kidney started making kidney stones. I have had 5 kidney stone surgeries (they are horrible and very painful), 2 years ago I had complete kidney failure from a kidney stone getting stuck in the tube that goes from our kidney to our bladder call the ureter and as a result I almost died. I could have ended up on dialysis for the rest of my life. Regular doctors told me I would have to have kidney stone surgery 1 to 2 times a year till my one and only kidney finally fails. This was the only option they gave me. I asked them why I was getting kidney stones. – They said, "They did not know", I asked them is there anything I can change or take to prevent kidney stones? – They said, "No". Desperate I turned to natural treatments, I was a skeptic like most people, but I heard about and starting drinking 2 tablespoons of Organic Apple Cider Vinegar in an 8 oz glass of water before bed every night. Within 3 month all the kidney stones were gone, dissolved, they became so small they passed without any pain. Why did this work? What is the principle behind this? I have researched it and here is what I have learned. It is not complicated to understand, so please listen and learn. Your body needs your blood to be alkaline to be healthy <b>…</b>
New Answers to High Cholesterol
Husband has high cholesterol and has totally changed his diet.
Thing is i have changed with him.
Our meals now are limited, we eat chicken and fish recipes throughout week, weekends soup on a sunday with vegetables.
He loves vegetables whereas i am not keen. Can anybody give me some recipes that are quick to prepare as time is not the essence.
We used to have a varied diet, i know pasta is a good option but he refuses to eat the ground pork or beef so can’t have bolognese.
Any ideas to spice things up would be great, we both love spicy food.
Make sure to stay away from buffalo. Alot of people with high cholesterol switch to it becasue it’s more lean. But it is so much higher in cholesterol than beef you are really shooting yourself in the foot.
I just got a call from my dr that my cholesterol level is 245. This is the first time I’ve ever been diagnosed as having high cholestrol. I am 27 years old, don’t smoke, in the normal range of weight for my height, exercise 5 days a week for 60 minutes. What else could be causing this?
At this young age and with such an excercise regime, it appears to be heredity. If yours parents/grand parents are in fine health, then read the followings, which I have seen on the net.
Renegade Australian researcher reveals
The Greatest Scam in the History of Medicine!
Why Your Fear of Cholesterol Could Be Killing You
If you’re like most people, you honestly believe that keeping a low blood cholesterol level and avoiding fatty foods are the keys to escaping the deadly clutches of heart disease.
For years you’ve been watching your cholesterol levels like a hawk. You’ve been meticulously trimming the fat from your meats, drinking skim milk, and eating only the lowest fat foods you can find. Your doctor has even placed you on statins, those ‘miracle’ cholesterol-lowering drugs that allegedly slash your risk of heart disease by one-third!
Guess what?
You are WASTING YOUR TIME – and MONEY!
You don’t know it yet, but you’ve fallen hook, line and sinker for the biggest scam in the history of medicine! You’re not alone – your neighbours, your doctor, the reporters who write the health articles appearing in your daily newspaper, and even thousands of experienced researchers have also been effortlessly taken in by this elaborate con!
It’s time the truth was known. Despite years of vilifying animal fats and instilling cholesterol paranoia in people the world over, the sad reality is that the age-adjusted incidence of heart disease has not declined one iota! Health authorities are quick to boast that the death rate from heart disease has declined since the late sixties, but this is wholly due to improved medical care of those who already have heart disease!
The medical establishment is not preventing heart disease from occurring – it is only extending the lives of those who already have heart disease. If the anti-cholesterol, anti-fat campaign was effective in reducing heart disease, it would stop people from having heart attacks in the first place. But it doesn’t!
How many more lives must be needlessly lost before people realize they’ve been conned?
I’m here to tell you that blood cholesterol does not cause heart disease – and never has! Neither do those highly vilified saturated fats you go to painstaking lengths to avoid! In fact, there is abundant evidence to show that saturated fats are good for you!
By now you’re probably asking yourself, “Is this guy crazy?”
Well, that’s what the drug companies and low-fat food manufacturers who make billions in revenue each year as a direct result of the reigning cholesterol paranoia would like you to believe! It’s also what ‘respectable’ health authorities – who receive millions in ‘donations’ from food and drug companies in one hand, while disseminating allegedly ‘impartial’ health advice to the public on the other – would have you believe.
But the truth is, I’m not an axe-grinding fringe lunatic. My name is Anthony Colpo and I’m a very serious independent researcher. When I say cholesterol does not cause heart disease, I can readily back up my assertions with a mountain of evidence from peer-reviewed medical journals. I’ve also had my own research published in the peer-reviewed scientific literature (you can click here to view this research).
Unlike the drug companies, the food manufacturers, and the public and private health agencies that have intimate financial ties to these industries, I don’t profit from cultivating cholesterol paranoia.
For years, I’ve been challenging all-comers to prove me wrong, to provide the definitive clinical evidence that cholesterol and saturated fat cause heart disease.
No-one has been able to do so (you can view one unsuccessful attempt here along with my reply), and here’s why:
The Evidence does NOT exist!
The shocking, sordid tale of the cholesterol scam – a mind-boggling saga of ignorance, corruption, deceit and greed – is a subject worthy of an entire book! So that’s exactly what I’ve done; after years of research, I’ve finally put together The Great Cholesterol Con: Why Everything You’ve Been Told About Cholesterol, Diet and Heart Disease is Wrong!
Make no mistake, this is not just another forgettable health book that fails to live up to its initial hype. Instead, The Great Cholesterol Con is a riveting demolition job that destroys every last possible defense of the cholesterol theory of heart disease!
In The Great Cholesterol Con, you will learn how decades of research, published in the world’s most prestigious medical journals, clearly show that the anti-cholesterol campaign is a farce!
The Great Cholesterol Con will take you right back to the beginning of the cholesterol theory. You’ll learn how the initial research implicating cholesterol and saturated fats in heart disease was based on some very questionable assumptions.
Not only was the research that launched the cholesterol paranoia a sham, but so too is the ‘research’ that keeps it alive and thriving.
You will learn why:
A single disgruntled researcher, who conducted some of the sloppiest and most shamelessly biased research ever seen, was largely responsible for launching the anti-animal fat/anti-cholesterol mania as we know it today!
The rise in coronary heart disease that occurred during the twentieth century had nothing whatsoever to do with saturated fat intake!
Study after study has shown that people with so-called ‘healthy’ low cholesterol levels actually live shorter lives!
Upon closer scrutiny, the very studies that have formed the cornerstone of the anti-cholesterol argument actually show that cholesterol and saturated fat are not harmful!
Numerous populations consuming high saturated fat diets have been documented to enjoy very low rates of heart disease!
Over fifty years’ worth of clinical dietary intervention trials have completely failed to show any mortality benefit among those following saturated fat-restricted diets – in fact, several of these studies showed higher death rates among those assigned to diets low in saturated fats!
Many dietary recommendations made by ‘experts’ to reduce heart disease have actually been shown in animal and human studies to increase heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity!
The primary force behind the anti-cholesterol paradigm is not public health, but greed! Drug companies, food companies, the medical profession, and health organizations all make billions in dollars of profit from the cholesterol theory!
If you have been convinced that the cholesterol theory is all about furthering public health, you could not be more wrong!
After reading The Great Cholesterol Con, you’ll know more about cholesterol and heart disease than most doctors! And more importantly, you’ll discover what really promotes heart disease and what you can do to prevent it!
Did you know that:
Your blood sugar level is a far more powerful influence on your future heart attack risk than blood cholesterol could ever dream of being?
Stress is one of the most powerful, but underrated, triggers of heart disease?
That the low-fat diet you are following to avoid coronary disease may in fact be setting you up for a deadly heart attack?
That, despite an abundant calorie intake, the diet eaten by most people leaves their hearts and arteries starved of the very nutrients they need to repair themselves?
That a little-known substance exerts a huge influence over whether or not you will succumb to heart disease? (Learn what this substance is, and how to maintain healthy levels of it!)
That the type of fat you eat is more important than the amount of fat you eat?
That regular exercise can keep ‘old’ hearts as robust as young ones?
That the mineral iron may hold the key to one of the greatest heart disease mysteries of all time?
That your dentist may be a more powerful ally in your quest to avoid heart disease than your doctor?
That the massively-hyped Polypill is based on some highly questionable research assumptions?
That a safe, effective drug-free ‘Polypill’ is already widely available?
When it comes to increasing lifespan, aspirin, cholesterol drugs, bypass surgery and angioplasty are utterly useless for the majority of people they are prescribed for?
That vegetarian eating has not been shown to extend mortality or protect against heart disease?
Here’s some feedback on The Great Cholesterol Con from two of the most knowledgable cholesterol experts in the world:
“I wholeheartedly urge you to read this book from cover to cover – it could be your life that is saved by the valuable information gracing the pages of this long overdue book.”
- Duane Graveline, M.D., MPH. Former astronaut, NASA physician, author of Lipitor: Thief of Memory and Statin Drugs, Side Effects and the Misguided war on Cholesterol.
“In this timely and urgently needed book, Colpo starts by pointing out the many contradictions inherent in the lipid hypothesis. Meticulously, he dissects the numerous fallacies of the anti-cholesterol campaigners and highlights their blatant misuse of statistics.”
Uffe Ravnskov, MD, PhD. Independent researcher, spokesman for The International Network of Cholesterol Skeptics (www.thincs.org) and author of The Cholesterol Myths: Exposing the Fallacy that Saturated Fat and Cholesterol Cause Heart Disease.
These guys are not your run-of-the-mill family physicians! Duane ‘Spacedoc’ Graveline is the renegade NASA doctor who helped alert millions to the phenomenon of statin-induced memory loss, while Uffe Ravnskov is the highly regarded author of dozens of published peer-reviewed articles on both kidney disease and the fallacy of the cholesterol paradigm.
Make no mistake–this book could save your life!
Not only is heart disease is a killer, but it is the disease most likely to take your life. So don’t you think you should at least consider what I’ve got to say? For years, I’ve been attacked and vilified by defenders of the cholesterol paradigm, but when I present these folks with the simple request to “Show me the evidence!”, they just can’t do it! Sure, some have tried, but in every instance I have promptly torn their convoluted and scientifically untenable arguments to shreds. Once you have read The Great Cholesterol Con, you will be able to do the same!
Stop being hoodwinked!
Don’t you owe it to yourself to find out the truth about the cholesterol fraud?
When it comes to health advice, the stakes are very high. Think about it for a moment – if your strategy for avoiding heart disease is based on information that is completely false, then nothing less than your very life is potentially at stake!
Do you really think it is wise to continue eating unnatural diets and taking potentially toxic cholesterol drugs, when such a huge volume of evidence exists to show that cholesterol does not cause heart disease? Shouldn’t you be focusing on the things that really matter?
The Great Cholesterol Con doesn’t just stop at destroying fallacious myths, but explains clearly what does matter in the battle against heart disease. While the book has been painstakingly researched and contains over 1400 references, it is surprisingly easy to read and understand.
For a limited time, The Great Cholesterol Con is available in convenient e-book form for the introductory price of $9.95 – less than what you would pay for a single, unappetizing low-fat meal!
It’s taken me years to research and write The Great Cholesterol Con – few people would have any idea just what an expensive and time-consuming process it is to piece together a book like this! But now, for less than ten dollars, you can have ready access to hundreds of pages of valuable information that cost me thousands of dollars and countless hours to compile!
Is your life worth $9.95? I don’t think you should have any problem answering “Yes!” to that question! But if you’re still wondering whether whether or not you should purchase my book, then what the heck…I’m going to make an offer that you would have to be plain crazy to refuse!
Here’s the deal:
I want you to read The Great Cholesterol Con in its entirety, and if you are not entirely convinced that:
1. The cholesterol theory of heart disease is a complete sham;
2. The information in the book could one day save your life;
3. It is the most important health book you have ever read;
- then I want you to return the book for a 100%, no-questions-asked, refund!
Yes, that’s right! If for any reason you are not totally satisfied with the book, then you can return it within 8 weeks of purchase and get your money back!
What could be fairer than that?
And to sweeten the deal even further, I’m going to give you a free gift! If you order the book within the next 48 hours, you will also receive your very own copy of The Junk Science Self-Defense Manual. This manual contains six vital tips that will help you easily recognize dubious health claims – no matter where they occur or who is issuing them!
Those who have already read The Junk Science Self-Defense Manual insist that it alone is worth more the $9.95 I am charging for The Great Cholesterol Con! In fact, several of my colleagues feel the information in this handy little manual is so important that they are urging me to create an expanded version and sell it seperately! They are adamant that it deserves to be sold as a stand-alone book! I might just take their advice, so grab this terrific opportunity while it lasts!
Remember, if you aren’t 100% satisfied with The Great Cholesterol Con, then you can return it within 8 weeks for a full refund. And even then, The Junk Science Self-Defense Manual is yours to keep, forever!

I have high cholesterol and would love to find a website that teaches me about eating right and lowering my cholesterol. Where can I find this website?
for sure! good thing you seek to lower your cholesterol the natural way instead of going with the medical approach. I know CureShare.com has a ranking of the best food that helps lower cholesterol, check out this link http://www.cureshare.com/view_condition.php?cond_id=22
My doctor told me that my cholesterol was high ever since last year…I think it was like 300 something..
The thing is I don’t even eat any kinds of meat whatsoever…but I SOMETIMES eat yogurt and cheese…That’s all.
My parents don’t have high cholesterol or anything either so I seriously don’t get what the cause is…
What am I supposed to be eating so it becomes low?
Thanks.
What exactly is your cholesterol ratio.Be proactive in understnading cholesterol. Don’t guess the number. Ask your doctor what your numbers are. What is the LDL and HDL if the doctor doesn’t know how to figure out the ratio. I will be happy to help you.What are your triglycerides/ Also if you are not eating large quantities of meat, then meat must not be the culprit behind poor cholesterol ratios. As a matter of fact, if your insulin/glucose levels are unstable they will cause the liver to work overtime. It is the liver that regulates cholesterol. If you ate nothing but paper, the liver would still manufacture cholesterol. Honestly, by not eating meat,eggs, chicken, fish etc, you are risking higher cholesterol levels because it is these foods that stabilize blood glucose,insulin and glucagon. Glucagon especially, contributes to healthy cholesterol levels but glucagon is non-existant if insulin is unstable. Not only add meat, poultry, fish and eggs remove breads, cereals, rice, potatoes anything that contributes to an insulin spike. Remove sugars. Some fruits have more sugars than others. Apples and oranges have higher amounts of sugars than strawberries and cantalope. Have no fear, strawberries and cantalope are also higher in nutrients.Avocadoes, a fruit, are the most nutritious fruit on the planet and are extrememely low in carbohydrates. Carbohydrates, in any form, become glucose in the blood, which is okay because we need small amounts of glucose. But, even if we ate only meat, that protein would become glucose as the body needs it.
My hubby’s reading today was
HDL – 61
LDL – 167
Trigy – 89
Cholesterol ratio – 4.0
Total cholesterol – 246
Fasting glucose – 93
Blood pressure 138/80
Does this look normal or should he be on medication due to the high LDL? At what readings should a person be diagnosed with medication? Appreciate your kind replies.
Thanks so much for your kind reply, Pauline.
Its not bad… and definitely not bad enough to take medication. I am not a doctor but I am a natural health nut who has family with high cholesterol and I watch this stuff closely.
Medication is an absolute last resort. What you will usually get is Lipitor and one your on that, its pretty much forever…. its tailored that way.
The best way to lower cholesterol is change your diet.. figure out what foods created it in the first place (chips, mashed potatoes and gravies, red meat, bacon…..its pretty obvious what does unless you just naturally produce cholesterol in your bloodstream) and eliminate them. A good routine is always eat a whole grain breakfast within 30 minutes of waking in the morning (even if you dont eat breakfast, its the most important meal and your cholesterol will lower just by doing that in most cases)as well drink 8 to 16 oz of water, clean fresh water, not tap. Then eat fibre througout the day at least every two hours.. carrots, apples, fibre bar whatever…. drink lots of water (this is the nectar of life, it has been neglected for years but science is realizing its really important to keep cells in your body working properly). There is also another thing you can do… drink an ounce of apple-cider vinegar every morning….. it cleans the arteries…. and get a multi-vitamin that contains B50 and niacin…. these also help keep the arteries clean and feed the heart which is what we worry about with high cholesterol. I know this is long but I just wanted to help… I dont promote taking any pills for quick fix… because its not good for your body to take pills.. then you have to take other pills to offset side effects and the next thing you know you have 20 pills to take every day.. the body isnt designed to filter pills….. which is why I believe people are sick in this day and age.
Good Luck
I suffer from High blood pressure and high cholesterol what would be a good and safe workout in regards to weight machines and cardio machines. What should i push my heart rate too if my resting heart rate is 89 bpm. What percentage of my max should i lift?
Sorry you cannot do weight lifting, but you can do walking, even brisk, avoid fat, sugar, stimulants. and be stress free.
So yeah is it possible to have high cholesterol without suffering from hypertension? I ask it because hypothetically speaking your heart would have to work harder if you have veins clogged by cholesterol. If this is true if you have high cholesterol you will suffer from hypertension. Again this is just an hypothesis, im not sure and would like to know how this works. Any info is greatly appreciated! =[) THX!
Patients who have an elevated blood pressure and patients who would be considered at relatively high global risk don’t necessarily have high cholesterol. If your cholesterol is over 10, then it is possible you may have a condition called hypercholesterolaemia.
If you smoke, are overweight and take no exercise, then your risk will be quite significant despite your low blood pressure. In this case you should try and do something about these other risk factors, which might include lowering your cholesterol with drugs.
However if you are a non-smoker, not too overweight, and take some exercise, then your cholesterol is an isolated problem that on its own in not likely to be much of a problem to you.
You should talk to your doctor.
Take care as always!\
My mom just got diagnosed with high cholesterol. What foods are good at reducing cholesterol. Is there a certain exercise that would help reduce it too?
I’m 56, too, Joeygirl, and also was just diagnosed with high cholesterol. All of the suggestions given so far are good. My doctor told me to keep my intake of carbohydrates at less than 50% of my daily calories, keep saturated fats at under 20 mg. per day, eat more protein, take fish oil capsules, do exercise like walking, and also, take this supplement:

Just recently after seeing the doctor I find out my cholesterol and blood pressure is very high. I have to take medicine and exercise and watch what I eat. I have watch those Nutricious labels and salt in-take. Your advise is most appreciated and web sites to find good affordable nutricious food recipes
Hi Carol
Here are some ideas to take care of your issue. Testimonials at the bottom.
Cause:
High Blood Pressure: There is a thickening of the blood from catarrhal and excess glutinous and fibrinous matters loading the circulatory system. Generally there is a clogging of the bowel with putrid body waste, making it necessary to cleanse the excretory systems in order to purify the blood.
Low blood and high blood pressure are both due to malfunction of the circulatory system. High blood pressure in many cases works just like low blood pressure. Cholesterol must be eliminated from the system in order to get the blood flowing more freely. The condition is brought about by improper diet, insufficient rest and exercise and a lack of vitality within the system.
Herbal Aids:
1. High Blood Pressure: With high blood pressure, cholesterol and mucus form a sludge within the body. Avoid the mucus-forming foods and take herbs that act as a solvent by liquefying impurities such as cayenne, garlic or sassafras. Take cayenne, working up to a teaspoon three times a day. This increases the power of the heart and corrects the circulation problems. Garlic in copious amounts will bring down high blood pressure. Pure tomato juice is very good as a nutritional and a medicinal herb. Wheat germ oil is excellent for feeding the heart and helps cut the cholesterol and smoothens its removal from the area. Avoid the use of liquor and tobacco, do not keep late hours, and avoid over-tiredness and worry. There is an intricate inter-relationship between ones living habits and his body condition.
2. Low Blood Pressure: More oxygen is needed to correct this condition. Garlic is a good oxygen carrier. One of the greatest aids for low or high blood pressure because of oxygen starvation is deep breathing, which serves as a catalyst and helps the herbs react more rapidly. An immediate increase in circulation may be obtained by the use of cayenne and non mucus-forming foods. Grape juice as well as other juices rebuild and give endurance to the system.
3. Shock: Cayenne should be taken internally to equalize the blood pressure and insure that the internal functions will remain stabilized during the intense systemal distress.
4. Dr. Shook’s High Blood Pressure Formula (hardening of the arteries, etc.): See formula using sassafras, European goldenrod, buckbean, black cohosh, poke root, Indian senna, buckthorn and cassia bark.
5. Dr. Shook’s High Blood Pressure Compound: See formula using valerian root, licorice root, buckthorn, speedwell, linden flowers, rue and golden rod.
6. Dr. Christopher’s Blood Pressure Formula: (BPE) This formula feeds calcium and ginger into the circulatory system, the cayenne working from the bloodstream to the heart and arteries, out into the veins. The other herbs included are to cleanse, heal and give natural elasticity to the venous structure. It is a group of herbs working together to equalize the blood pressure whether high or low and to bring it to a good systolic over the diastolic reading. Blood flow is life itself. This combination contains: Ginger, Cayenne, Golden Seal, Ginseng, Parsley, Garlic.
7. Vitamin K: The blood clotting properties of Vitamin K, it has been found effective in preventing and curing high blood pressure in test animals, and may turn out to be important for the same use in humans. It is important that in the plant kingdom, only Alfalfa contains a significant amount of Vitamin K; most plants are quite deficient in the vitamin.
8. Kelp: It is an arterial cleansing agent and gives tone to the walls of the blood vessels. It is helpful in some cases of arterial tension (high blood pressure). Practitioners believe that it helps to remove deposits from the walls of the arteries and restore their elasticity, thereby lengthening life. Sufferers from low blood pressure can also have this condition normalized with the use of Kelp.
9. Shepherd’s Purse: Acts to constrict the blood vessels and thus can raise blood pressure but it has also been said to regularize blood pressure and heart action whether the pressure is too high or too low.
10. Valerian: The herb has a beneficial effect on the heart and on blood pressure. One man felt “jittery and woozy” taking his blood pressure medicine and asked an herbal practitioner for something to help him. He didn’t say that he was going to stop taking his medicine but a few weeks later, he said that he had been to his doctor, and that his blood pressure was down to normal. He didn’t have the nerve to tell the doctor that he had stopped taking the medicine and was drinking a tea composed mostly of Valerian and hawthorne.
11. Hawthorn Berries: A celebrated cardiac tonic for many centuries. Under conditions of stress, the heart often “works overtime.” Hawthorn berries can help in treatment of high or low blood pressure, tachycardia, and arrhythmia. It is also anti-spasmodic, sedative, and soothing to nerves, especially in nervous insomnia.
12. Garlic: Many people have been helped in ridding the body of worms by inserting a peeled button of garlic as high as possible into the rectum. Do this just before retiring at night and it will come out with the first bowel movement in the morning. (This is also a fine aid in adjusting high blood pressure and low blood pressure).
13. Water: It is very beneficial to drink a gallon of “steam distilled water” each day. This will aid to cut down the hardening of the arteries, adjust high and low blood pressure, and retard body dehydration. The amount of water depends on the weight of the individual. Use one ounce of “steam distilled water” to each pound of body weight. i.e. a one hundred and thirty pound individual should drink a gallon of the water (132 oz.) or a twenty pound child, twenty ounces of the water.
14. Juices for High Blood Pressure: Celery-garlic-parsley, celery, dandelion, grapefruit.
15. Juices for Low Blood Pressure: Beet, grape, pomegranate.
16. Ephedra: Excessive amounts of ephedra should not be used by those people who have high blood pressure, but the small amounts in Dr. Christopher’s formulas will have no adverse effects. Ephedra is great for those suffering from low blood pressure.
17. Vegetables for Blood Pressure: The green bell-shaped pepper is especially good for … high blood pressure and acidosis. The Sweet Potato used… for problems of low blood pressure and poor circulation. Peaches are considered valuable in cases of …high blood pressure Pineapple is considered good for… high blood pressure. Strawberry is recommended for … high blood pressure. Ample consumption of tomatoes is considered to improve … high blood pressure.
18. Pecans: These have been used where there is a problem with low blood pressure…Pinon nuts have saved the life of many an Indian baby when made into a nut soup and used as milk for the baby when the mother had no milk. The nut is considered to be effective where there are problems with the lungs such as tuberculosis, impotence, paralysis, low blood pressure, and emaciation. The Pinon nut is one of the best sources of protein in the nut family.
Testimonials:
1. Dr. Christopher Tells the Story: I traveled with a man younger than myself several years ago all over the western part of the United States on business. He marveled at the stamina that an older man could have on long drives without displaying the usual fatigue. Each morning I would get up and have my cayenne and my wheat germ oil (I don’t pay attention to anyone else, I just take them, regardless). Finally he got curious and said, “What’s that stuff?” So I gave him an illustrative lecture, and he responded, “Well, I have hemorrhoids; my mother died of high blood pressure, and I have high blood pressure; and with the hemorrhoids I have to wear a belt, as you probably noticed, to keep my hemorrhoids up in place. Do you think that (meaning cayenne) will help?” “Not unless you take it,” I replied. “Well, I will start taking it.” Then I added, “I don’t think you’re man enough; I don’t think you are brave enough,” and I turned and walked away. Now, he was well-proportioned and a weight lifter, so after I left, he went over and got into my can and started using the cayenne along with the wheat germ oil, and by spring he did not have to wear a belt any longer as his hemorrhoids were cleared. Then he had an amazing surprise when he went to his doctor for a regular check-up; the doctor took his blood pressure three or four times and said, “This is supposed to be progressively worse. I don’t know what has happened; your systolic and diastolic are near perfect. You don’t need to come back any longer –I don’t know what happened!” Well, he did not have to go back, and today this gentleman who lives in the Salt Lake City area has no high blood pressure, for he kept on taking his cayenne.
2. Dr. Christopher’s Own Story: Because of my own experiences I must tell you that I am a firm believer in the use of cayenne for the circulatory. I suffered ill health in my youth and from my middle twenties to the middle thirties it was impossible for me to purchase life insurance, even a thousand dollar policy. This was due in part to the hardening of the arteries and a disposition to high blood pressure which I suffered from.
During my middle forties I tried again for a substantially large policy of life insurance. Because of the amount of the insurance I had requested, I was required to see two different doctors, each of whom gave me an examination. After one examination the doctor exclaimed that he was astounded at my blood pressure which resembled that of a healthy teenager though I was forty-five years old. The second doctor measured my blood pressure five times, in each instance shaking his head and repeatedly scrutinizing my case history chart. I was becoming irritated and asked him if his equipment was broken, seeing that he had repeated the reading over and over. He told me that the equipment had been used without trouble for some time, but since my age was forty-five and I had a perfect systolic over diastolic pressure he had to wonder if the reading was correct. I assured him that it was and related what the other doctor had said. I got an O.K. for the policy from both practitioners.
Last year as I neared seventy years of age I told this story to a class I was instructing. One of the pre-medicine students asked if my blood pressure was still as good as it had been then. So I gave him permission to take my blood pressure. Amazingly, the group saw the blood pressure reading of a healthy young man and not the average reading of a seventy-year-old individual. This was very gratifying to me to say the least. The main reason for this good blood pressure of mine, besides my close adherence to the mucusless diet, was the use of cayenne as a food each day. I take one to three teaspoons or more of cayenne every day of my life and the resulting healthy blood pressure is what I call a good pay-off for a total effort.
3. Dr. Christopher’s “Hawthorn Berry Syrup has been doing us so much good. It’s difficult to find adequate thank you expressions for you. In addition to help for heart problems it has also been stabilizing a high blood pressure problem of long standing which is really worthy of praise. We take it only twice a day, but perhaps if it was taken three times, it would bring the blood pressure to normal … At least we are not using the drug prescription for some time now.”
Best of health to you

Vytorin is a high cholesterol drug and I would like to know what its source is and how its detected in the body.
There is a specific blood test for cholesterol levels.
