Forward: How Did We Get Here?

Every day you turn on the TV and you see ad after ad promising that if you just take this pill you will begin to experience the emotions demonstrated on the screen. If it is an anti-depressant drug, everyone is sad living in a black and white world until the pill is introduced and the world becomes coloured. Suddenly a lonely and depressed individual wants to be outside in the sun and experience life again. If its arthritis medication, youll be able to move like a puma because now youre not in pain. If its a cholesterol reducing drug, suddenly you are taking control of your risk of heart disease by going bungee jumping or playing football and being young again. Why have we turned to pills to cure all of our health problems? Why is it that we are willing to risk all of those listed side-effects? How did we get here?

The purpose of science is to observe the world around us and make predictions. It is a process of seeking knowledge and making decisions based on accurate information. It is a method of inquiry. Science is not laboratories, microscopes and chemical signatures. There are six steps to using the scientific method to acquire new information. First, you ask a question. Next you conduct some background research in order to make an educated guess on what is happening. You construct an experiment to test your idea. You look at the information you have collected to make a conclusion and possibly ask more questions. Finally, you make a statement telling other people about your discovery. What makes that statement truly valid is being able to repeat your experiment with the same results. That s it! That is what makes science so amazing. It is a power we all have to draw our own conclusions. Sometimes ideas are accurate, and they stand the test of time. In the end tested ideas that consistently turn out as predicted can be decided to be true! Sometimes ideas are not so predictable or repeatable, and they dont stand up, no matter how many billions of dollars are thrown at them.

Unfortunately, the truth is not always more powerful than money.

Weve all heard the story and seen the commercials that tell us that heart disease is caused by fat blocking arteries and that if you lower blood fat levels you lower heart disease risk. To be fair, at first the scientific community had drawn the wrong conclusion but didnt know it. However, now they know they are wrong. And yet we are still being sold the ideas that cholesterol causes heart disease and that it must be reduced. The definition of a lie is that it is a false statement, or a manipulation of information, made with deliberate intent to deceive. Read on. The facts on heart disease are telling us a very different story than what weve been lead to believe.
