DrTri Weekly Health & Fitness HomeWork for 11/29/09

I hope you had a chance to relax over the last few days and possibly reflect on “what you are thankful” for.... Perhaps you are thankful that you are smart enough to not end sentences in prepositions?!?!

Now that we are ‘back’, it is time to get back to work, specifically back to your Weekly HomeWork.

This week’s HomeWork (as promised) is to address your CrP.
CrP is a protein that is produced in your liver in the presence of “inflammation” in your system.
And, cool enough, there is more and more evidence that CrP is a better indicator of your risk of developing Heart Disease than LDLs, VLDLs, and/or HDL/LDL ratios...
The Framingham Heart Study ( http://www.framinghamheartstudy.org), and numerous others, found a higher incidence of heart disease in those individuals who had an increased CrP than in those people who had high levels of saturated fat in their diets. That is astounding data, considering that for years, and still today, ‘they’ advise us to lower our saturated fat intake to prevent heart disease.
A bit confusing until you think about it. The ‘experts’ are telling us that saturated fat is bad for our hearts. But, the evidence is saying that CrP is what we need to watch more out for. Solid scientific evidence does not lie, people do... Maybe not on purpose (settle down - conspiracy theorists), but the communication from the scientific evidence to the ‘experts’ and then out to us ordinary folk, can easily be distorted for many reasons - sinister as well as innocent.

For more discussion on CrP from the American Heart Association check out:
http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=4648

Specifically for us, the HomeWork is to get your CrP tested.
From here, once you know your level of CrP you can decide if you need to take action to reduce it or not.
Which brings up the question, what raises or lowers your CrP levels...?

That will be the subject of next week’s HomeWork.

Step 1, get your CrP level tested, more specifically, your ‘high sensitivity CrP’ level.

Have a great week!
