033 – Nutrition for Cardiovascular Health – My Interview with Dr. Gaetano Morello

If you have cardiovascular disease or if you are on cholesterol lowering drugs, then you need to hear this interview. Dr. Morello discusses some of the reasons we get heart disease. He especially focuses on the health of the arteries. Many people with heart concerns never learn that there are specific nutrients that can help. The sad fact about the modern medical approach to heart disease is to patch, replace and/or medicate. As important as these are in the management of disease they do not get you closer to being healthier. You need to nourish the body with the building blocks of health. Only your body can heal a sick heart and if you must nourish your body therapeutically, or you will have the best results. Drugs cannot do what nutrition can do and nutrition are not drugs and cannot do what drugs do.

031 – Is DHA the Most Important Omega-3? Interview with Dr. Parris Kidd

Dr. Kidd states the following in his current book Natural Brain Enhancers, “Whatever the type of human cell analyzed, its membranes contain 5-10 time more DHA than EPA, and (only) traces of ALA (if any). Abnormally low DHA levels in membranes predict functional problems, but EPA and ALA levels show no such correlation.”

This is an important premise. As we learn more about the important of omega-3 fatty acids, we are also learn about the distinctions between different products and different fatty acids. In my opinion, marine based omega-3 fatty acids are foundational to health. Nothing else can do what omega-3 fatty acids do. For inflammation and your brain, they are critical. Dr. Kidd makes the case that of all of the omega-3 fatty acids, DHA is the most critical and beneficial.

In this interview, Dr. Parris Kidd discusses the nutritional benefits of SAMe (S-Adenosyl Methionine). SAMe has shown clinical benefits for mood and depression, joint health and liver support. “SAMe is an ortho nutrient and one of the most intensively researched of all the natural brain enhancers. SAMe has an extended positive record of proven benefits for the brain, as well for the liver, digestive system, and joints. SAMe’s exceptional benefits are related to its very high energy content and unique molecular structure.” (Kidd,PhD, Parris. Natural Brain Enhancers)
