The Big Bang theory describes the time and place when the entire Universe was born. Ill health also has some origins and one primary foundation of ill health has to do with the idea that, “nature can produce designs that aren’t perfect.” From that flawed theory we have evolved the idea that nature also needs to be feared and controlled because it can produce flawed outcomes, which can kill you prematurely. As we are told to fear nature, we are also told that science can save us from those manufactured fears. Is this the truth?

For example, I have many people in my office who “repeat” the idea that they just got some blood tests back and that their “good” cholesterol was fine but their their “bad” cholesterol was high.  I see the fear in their eyes, based on the belief that their body can in fact kill them by mistake and of course we see them running to the sales person for the solution…….in regards to drugs that manipulate the cholesterol production of their faulty body. Should we believe our bodies are faulty?

In fact, HDL and LDL are not  cholesterol at all…………..they are proteins that carry the cholesterol around the body. The body produces cholesterol in the liver because cholesterol is needed for the proper formation of every cell in the body. You also need cholesterol to produce all your hormones. Your body itself regulates cholesterol production based on how much cellular repair and hormone production it needs to undertake, at that particular time of day.

If you live an unhealthy lifestyle, you will have an excess of cellular death. (all cells die anyway overtime but they just die faster when you abuse your body with bad food and chemicals)  So high cholesterol indicates that you are abusing your body. That’s it!

High cholesterol is your body’s way of trying to repair the damage your inflicting on yourself. What most people call good cholesterol is the protein that takes the cholesterol back to the liver for recycling (indicating that not much repairing had to be done) and what most people call bad cholesterol is the protein that transports the cholesterol to the “work site”  or the area where your bad foods have put massive holes in your tissues.

Cholesterol is the body’s healing paste and the body uses cholesterol to patch holes in your tissues. You are alive today because of cholesterol. You are alive today because the body knows when to produce cholesterol on your behalf. You didn’t get a faulty body. The body regulates your cholesterol to keep you alive as long as possible, given what you’re doing to it. Without your body controlling your cholesterol, you die quicker………much quicker. If you want to be healthy, you need to eat better and you really want to avoid eating chemicals in an effort to teach your body who’s boss.

If you eat bad, you get a lot of holes in your cells and if you have lots of holes in your cells (because you don’t live healthy) you will test high for the protein that transports the cholesterol to the areas where those holes need patching.

If you ever take medication that stops your healing cholesterol from being produced, you unfortunately are in line for more decreases in health because 1) you will still keep living the lifestyle that places massive holes in all your cells and 2) you now take drugs that prevent your body from patching those holes with healing cholesterol……………..and that’s where all the dangerous side effects regarding cholesterol medication comes from. When you start thinking nature is bad and that science should be controlling body functions…………..you’re in trouble.

Find someone who takes 1 medication. OK, now find someone who takes 3. OK, now find someone who takes 5. Do you see the health of those people increasing regarding how much medication they take or do you see their health decreasing? If someone contemplates suicide, do they ever consider eating too much organic vegetables or do they often reach for a whole bottle of ANY medication? Check your programming. If you think a small daily dose of poison is good but the whole bottle is bad…………you need to think a little deeper about what you’re really doing and why.

The idea that nature got it wrong and that science can correct the faulty product of nature, is at the base of some of the most unhealthy sales pitches of all time. For example, the same groups say to eat low fat products because fat is bad………..because nature produced something that’s dangerous. Be afraid of nature and run to the man made solutions. That is just another example I will discuss next. Nothing could be further from the truth and in fact avoiding healthy fats can make your health nose dive, just like in the case of the flawed cholesterol theory.

Can you pick out sales pitches, which are based on science knowing more than nature? Try it and see if you can name any before I discuss them over the next couple of blogs.
