Fatty Liver disease and mycotoxins
David Holland, MD
A large majority of people (73%) with the metabolic syndrome have what's called "nonalcoholic steatohepatitis," or NASH for short--a.k.a. "Fatty liver disease". Whether one has the metabolic syndrome or not, if one's liver enzymes are elevated on a blood test, a doctor will be able to determine whether NASH or some other, infectious agent is responsible for the rise in liver enzymes (AST, or SGOT, and ALT, or SGPT).

Improving your health with Grass-Fed Beef
guest, Ted Slanker
All livestock, cattle included, evolved on a diet of green leafy plants; mostly grass. They ate virtually no grain. This fact is important because nutritional scientists report that many of America's leading health problems are caused by diets top heavy in omega-6 fatty acids versus omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-6 fatty acids come mainly from grain. Omega-3 fatty acids come mainly from green leafy plants (on land and in the sea) and some nuts. . . . keep reading
