If it's genetic, then what's the point of eating a "heart healthy diet"? You might as well eat whatever we would like!

The diet the American Heart Association recommends:

Aim to eat a diet that's rich in:

• Fruits
• Vegetables
• Whole-grains
• Low-fat dairy products
• Skinless poultry and fish
• Nuts and legumes
• Non-tropical vegetable oils

Limit:

• Saturated and trans fats
• Sodium
• Red meat (if you do eat red meat, compare labels and select the leanest cuts available)
• Sweets and sugar-sweetened beverages

Sorry but I sort of snickered when I read the title of the article. In retrospect a feel a bit bad!

Modern medicine holds a % genetic % lifestyle explanation for everything, but without giving mechanisms or percentages, which is a combo that makes them philosophically untouchable and never liable of being wrong, while still looking like they are making an authoritative and meaningful statement. The same strategy coincidentally also is ideal when you’re a con artist, a PR specialist or politician, a spy, or just trolling on the internet.

I've wondered if the people who promote the so-called heart healthy diets have an idea of the truth. This is my answer. Warner sounds like he was as misled as the people that listen to him.

Just because he was the president of the AHA doesn't mean that he actually ate and lived as they promote. But funny how they promote low fat dairy like Peat, Fruit, 2nd tier Peat with "vegetables" (Peat on eating well cooked greens), and skinless chicken which Peat has said he removes the chicken fat from his chicken broth, and also low fat fish like cod/sole/tilapia which Peat likes. So it's odd that people would try to paint it as so one sided.

He was overweight. Look at his pudgy gut:

And look at his neck here:

>> Just because he was the president of the AHA doesn't mean that he actually ate and lived as they promote.

I assume he follows the AHA rules because heart attacks don't just happen.
He does have a pudgy gut, haha. Aw. Kind of makes me feel bad for him.

yeah honestly I'm not shocked by most of these recommendations, eat low fat meat and dairy, fruits and vegetables isn't this what we all do? Plus unless you have access to grass fed beef, I wouldn't do red meats. Grain feeding is atrocious for the animal.

Their paranoia of sodium and saturated fats is crazy. On top of that recommending vegetable oils and whole grains are the worst things to do. Nuts, legumes and sweets I'm neutral on the matter for various reasons. I don't know.
