260 #covid19 deaths last 24 hours in USA. 260 too many but lowest in months. Big cases, low deaths is herd immunity. Hope next 2 weeks this will continue. #progress

My post on South Asians and heart disease raised q

So crazy sad. 39. South Asians are at high risk.

So crazy sad. 39. South Asians are at high risk. Diet and genetics are a factor. Ghee, paneer and poor quality oils. Some of the most striking findings to come out of Masala relate to body composition. Using CT scans, Dr. Kanaya and her colleagues found that South Asians have a greater tendency to store body fat in places where it shouldn’t be, like the liver, abdomen and muscles. Fat that accumulates in these areas, known as visceral or ectopic fat, causes greater metabolic damage than fat that is stored just underneath the skin, known as subcutaneous fat.

Studies show that at a normal body weight — generally considered a body mass index, or B.M.I., below 25 — people of any Asian ancestry, including those who are Chinese, Filipino and Japanese, have a greater likelihood of carrying this dangerous type of fat. Despite having lower obesity rates than whites, Asian-Americans have twice the prevalence of Type 2 diabetes, which promotes heart attacks and strokes.

Heart risks tended to be greatest in South Asians, the Masala researchers found. In one recent study, in the Annals of Internal Medicine, they found that 44 percent of the normal weight South Asians they examined had two or more metabolic abnormalities, like high blood sugar, high triglycerides, hypertension or low HDL cholesterol, compared to just 21 percent of whites who were normal weight. #heart #heartattack #indianfood #southasian #prevention #plantbased

Do you agree? Moderation a reliable limit? Even spinach in excess can precipitate kidney stones. Can you smoke one cigarette or cigar a week and still be healthy? Eat one cookie a week? One Coke a week? One glass of wine a day? It is certainly true that amount of exposure matters. Does one drop of olive oil in a hemp oil capsule put anyone in harms way? What are your thoughts? Is it all or nothing? #discipline #moderation #limits #poison #dose

It is #alzheimersawareness Month. My national TV interview on @cheddar is in my story. A must view for PREVENTING AD. #plantbased #prevention #brain @alzassociation @womensalzmovement @beatalzheimers @alzheimerscaregiversupport @teamsherzaimd
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive disorder that causes brain cells to waste away (degenerate) and die. Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia — a continuous decline in thinking, behavioral and social skills that disrupts a person's ability to function independently.

The early signs of the disease may be forgetting recent events or conversations. As the disease progresses, a person with Alzheimer's disease will develop severe memory impairment and lose the ability to carry out everyday tasks.

Have a whole house RO system? Worth considering. I do. PFAS, BPA, metals and even medications in city water can get in the body in under 30 seconds in a bath or shower. Protect your health. Unfiltered shower water can contain an array of chemicals like chlorine (which we try to avoid whenever possible) as well as bacteria and fungus from the shower head.

The skin is much more than just a covering for the body. It is the largest organ and is responsible for important functions like vitamin d creation and synthesis. It also has the ability to absorb much of what it comes in contact with and we are learning that it has its own unique and important microbiome!

The most protection patients have ever had from hospital price gouging was ruled in court today to be legal. The hospitals are planning to fight to appeal it further to screw us all more with blind and random pricing. Fight to keep this on the law books. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-hospitals-lawsuit-idUSKBN23U3FY

Hooray for plants. But some suffer from calcium oxalate kidney stones. Limit and rotating these high oxalate foods may be wise. Black tea, rhubarb and beet root are some others. Just smart planning. #plantbased #oxalates #kidneystones
