Cutting calories helps people lose weight, but doing so by filling up on whole grains may be particularly heart-healthy, new research suggests. Those who trimmed calories and increased their whole-grain intake shed more belly fat and lowered their blood levels of C- reactive protein or CRP.
CRP is a marker of chronic, low-level inflammation in the blood vessels, and both abdominal fat and CRP, in excess, are linked to heart attack and stroke.
In contrast, dieters in the study who mainly ate refined grains, like white bread, were able to lose weight, but they trimmed less fat from the middle and showed no change in CRP.

refined grains


whole or refined may still be toxic

refined is almost always toxic

Today commercial food and drink are too toxic to be taken internally

they may even too toxic to use as scrubs.

A dirty world inhabited by greedy dirty people
of little or no intelligence

Do you trust them with your life ??

with LIFE on this rock ?

do you trust a cancer not to harm you ?
