Saturated fats in foods such as bacon, sausage, beef, and eggs raise cholesterol, specifically LDL, or “bad,” cholesterol, which increases your risk of cardiovascular disease, so consuming meat heavy diets, even popular low-carb, weight-loss programs like Atkins, put your health at risk.

On the flipside, diets rich in fruits and vegetables have been shown to lower LDL cholesterol and raise HDL, or “good,” cholesterol, which decreases your risk of heart disease.

Nutrients found in plant heavy diets have also been reported to reduce cancer risk, while consuming a lot of animal products may heighten your likelihood of developing cancer.

And now new research in the Annals of Internal Medicine claims low-carb diet plans high in meat raise the risk cancer and heart disease, but low-carb diets comprised of plant goods decrease these health risks.

Two studies following 85,000 women and 44,500 men from 1980 and 2006 found men and women consuming a meat-based low-carb diet had a 23% higher risk of death, a 14% increased risk of dying from cardiovascular disease, and were 28% more likely to die from cancer.

But they endured crushing heartbreak when Brenna died at just 18 months after swallowing a battery.

“We scoured our house and we have no idea where it came from,” said Terry.

It was a lithium battery – the round kind found in many household items.

“Bathroom scales, car remotes, remotes for your automatic garage door openers,” said Colleen Driscoll, International Association for Child Safety.

Overview

The most common question we get via email from readers – and perhaps what you’re thinking right now – is: “What product do you use or recommend to your family/friends”? Obviously different types of skin can have different needs. But, the answer to this question for most of our panel has been ResVibrant. Here’s why:

ResVibrant crème contains cutting edge ingredients that you’ve come to expect from other high-end topical – and a few proprietary ingredients as well. But, it’s also one of the few products that come with anti-aging soft gel capsules that promote healthy skin from within.
