    Food Choices and Coronary Heart Disease: A Population Based Cohort Study of Rural Swedish Men with 12 Years of Follow-up. Sara Holmberg, Anders Thelin and Eva-Lena Stiernström. Int. J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2009, 6(10), 2626-2638; doi:10.3390/ijerph6102626 - published online 12 October 2009 Coronary heart disease is associated with diet. Nutritional recommendations are frequently provided, but few long term studies on the effect of food choices on heart disease are available. We followed coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality in a cohort of rural men (N = 1,752) participating in a prospective observational study. Dietary choices were assessed at baseline with a 15-item food questionnaire. 138 men were hospitalized or deceased owing to coronary heart disease during the 12 year follow-up. Daily intake of fruit and vegetables was associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease when combined with a high dairy fat consumption (odds ratio 0.39, 95% CI 0.21-0.73), but not when combined with a low dairy fat consumption (odds ratio 1.70, 95% CI 0.97-2.98). Choosing wholemeal bread or eating fish at least twice a week showed no association with the outcome.

    MSG is extremely dangerous.  I ingested quite a bit of it in some homemade chicken soup that I made last week with organic chicken broth.  As a result, I became afflicted with extremely painful and nearly blinding headaches and foot and leg swelling that led me to fear the worst.  I've used this particular brand for years without a problem.  They have apparently changed the recipe.

    It took me several days to detox from it, and I am okay now, thank God.

Enviroblog: Ask EWG: How should I wash my fruits and veggies? - 0 views

  • The University of Main posts valuable information on this topic at http://www.umext.maine.edu/onlinepubs/htmpubs/4336.htm. Based on their research, they recommend soaking produce in distilled water for 1-2 minutes. They tested commercial produce washes, and found no benefit over the use of distilled water.
  • veggie & fruit washes: for years,i have felt confident in the info i heard that E-COLI & SALMONELLA, as well as waxes & other residues are neutralized by bathing items in a bowl of water, as pure as possible, and "A SWIG" of un-filtered APPLE CIDER VINEGAR... the key is the concentration of the "mother" floating in the un-filtered variety... 2 minutes to soak, then a bathing rinse in pure water.. only wash what you plan to eat within 12-18 hours, as wilting will occur on more delicate veggies...
  • Washing fruits and vegies that are not organically grown. Use a large receptical or pot - fill halfway with filtered water, or authentic spring water, add a heaping spoon of Kosher salt, 1/8 cup lemong juice (this mixture creates hydrochloric acid). This combination of "do-it-yourself home remedy" works better than store bought washes. I generally add, for additional protection, if there is such a thing - 3 Tbsps vinegar

  • A couple of months ago I heard a piece on NPR about a study on commercial fruit/veggie washes. While they didn't test plain water alone, they tested fancy veggie wash vs. white vinegar vs. a quick polish with a cloth. The vinegar cleaned the best, and also had anti-microbial effects. So I'm using white vinegar followed by a water rinse now.
  • I personally wouldn't use hydrogen peroxide to wash my produce -- it's linked to neurotoxicity, organ toxicity, and cancer, and its use is restricted in Canadian lip products. Here's the Skin Deep report for that ingredient.
  • For fragile fruits and veggies, such as lettuces, or soft skinned fruit like peaches, etc. two minutes is long enough for a wash. The harder skinned items such as apples, Qs, tomatoes, etc. for 5-minutes. After this wash, rinse thoroughly with filtered water, pat dry with a clean dish cloth. It is well advised to peel those food items with skins on them. As for the more perishable ones like leafy or tender vegies, wash only before consuming, and only what you intend to eat at the tiem. Pat dry with a paper towel or cloth. Additonally, if you consume ORGANIC fruits and vegies, wash them as well with filtered water and vinegar and rinse clean just before consumption. This cleans off the grit and any tiny creatures left on them. If you can afford to pay a little extra, buy ORGANIC. IT IS HEALTHIER FOR YOUR BODY.

  • Orange juice: Attendees were informed that 22 samples of orange juice were tested for 54 pesticide residues.  Three of the samples were imported from non-EC countries and 19 were of unknown origin.  None of the samples contained any residues from those sought.  None of the samples was labelled as organic. One member asked whether both fresh and UHT samples were included in the survey.  The Secretariat confirmed that this was the case, and agreed to add a statement to the introduction for this commodity.

  • The researchers conclude: “This study shows a strong association between 25(OH)D levels and cause-specific mortality in patients with prostate cancer. The strength of the association indicates that prostate cancer patients can benefit from increasing the level of serum 25(OH)D if it is below 50 nmol/l.”

    MedWire News: Serum levels of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) play a role in prostate cancer disease progression and are a potential prognostic indicator, Norwegian study findings suggest.
