Many cardiovascular patients take vitamin B6, B12 and folic acid on a daily basis, because previous studies have shown that they are beneficial to cardiovascular disease; however, a report of more than 5,000 people over a five-year period says that these nutrients cannot prevent cardiovascular disease. (Western medicine has always been like this. When you want to sell western medicine, you say it has been proven. After the real proof in the future, it is found to be ineffective. This proves that many western medicines have not been genuinely proven before being marketed, and it is unlucky for the people. .)"
"At the 55th Congress of the American College of Cardiology, researcher Long reported this two-day study called "Heart Disease Prevention Evaluation (HOPE 2)", which overturned the previous concept of diet prevention of heart disease. (Diet can definitely prevent heart disease, but vitamins are not the same as diet. They are completely different. This person equates them.)"
The subjects of this study were chronic stable cardiovascular patients over 55 years old. The experimental group took 2.5 mg of folic acid, 1 mg of vitamin B12 and 50 mg of vitamin B6 every day, while the control group took a placebo.
After five years, there were no significant differences between the two groups in the rates of heart disease, cardiovascular death, and stroke.
The study found that after two years of study, the concentration of homocysteine (homocysteine) in the blood of patients in the experimental group decreased, but not in the control group. However, the risk of heart disease in both groups was comparable.
Previous studies have suggested that high levels of homocysteine in the blood are associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases, while folic acid, vitamins B6 and B12 can promote the conversion of homocysteine into methionine and cysteine (cysteine), which is excreted from the body in urine, thereby reducing the risk of heart disease.
As a result, many high-risk patients are taking high-unit B vitamins and switching to folic acid-fortified breakfast oatmeal; however, this study concluded that these nutritional supplements have no preventive benefit in chronic stable cardiovascular disease .
Study: Drinking more fruit juice may prevent Alzheimer's disease

(Agence France-Presse, Washington, 31st) According to a research report published in the American Journal of Medicine in September, drinking fruit or vegetable juice a few times a week can help prevent Alzheimer's disease. (Everyone pay attention here, fruit juice and vegetable juice must be made with fresh fruits and vegetables to be effective, if it is bottled, it will be useless.)
The nine-year study, directed by Professor Dai Qi (translation) of Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, studied nearly 2,000 people and found that after drinking fruit or vegetable juice more than three times a week, the risk of developing Alzheimer's The risk of developing Alzheimer's disease was reduced by 76%. Alzheimer's disease causes brain degeneration that affects a person's memory, thinking and mood. (Nutrition is the main reason.)
As for those who only drank fruit juice once a week, the risk of disease reduction was 16 percent.
This study originated in 1991. The researchers spent two years tracking 1,836 people without dementia in Seattle and Washington, conducting surveys on life, eating habits and cognition function test.
While scientists have long believed that certain antioxidants, such as vitamins C, E or carotene, were effective against Alzheimer's disease, this study confirms the researchers' belief that "there must be something else as well." ” thoughts. Deich points specifically to polyphenols, a type of natural antioxidant found in fruit juices, tea and wine. (There is a mistake here, it should be Chinese medicine.)
He said that animal experiments and laboratory cell culture experiments have confirmed that polyphenols in some fruit juices have stronger neuroprotective effects than antioxidant vitamins.
But the report did not say that drinking those fruit juices had a better effect.
In the United States and Western Europe, 4.5 million people and 5.4 million people suffer from Alzheimer's disease, respectively. (It's because these people are idiots who believe in western medicine factories, so they get this disease.)
Comment
Alzheimer's disease is caused by the side effects of western medicine, which would not have happened to humans, so the only way to avoid this disease is to stay away from western medicine, take traditional Chinese medicine when sick, and use acupuncture when there is pain , everyone go back to the past era, so this Alzheimer's disease will be extinct.
