Maybe it's not the high fat foods we eat but the water we drink that effects heart disease

Maybe it's not the high fat foods we eat but the water we drink that effects heart disease?

(article points to chlorine in our water as a factor contributing to plaque build up in arteries)

A while back, Cryptosporidium showed up as a parasite that could kill. It's also an important disease in regards to HIV patients. THe problem was this parasite is resistant to chlorine. Los ANgeles response was to add more chlorine in the water. THe proper choice was to update our water system to add ozone or UV light. BOth was closely to implement and UV was very expensive in the long run. Replacing the light source is costly. Chlorine is very destructive towards cells. This is why we added to the water. It destroys bacteria cells. Unfortunately our cells would be effected to a lesser degree. It's better than having people get cholera, but I like to see ozone being used.

Considering that there is actually no definitive proof that fats cause heart disease and that pollutants are starting to be implicated more and more in heart disease, this is quite possible. The problem is that that the lipid hypothesis has been pushed so hard for so long that no one is prepared to stand up and say they may have been wrong. This also apples to the adding of toxic compounds such as chlorine and fluoride to our drinking supply. Pride and fear of legal action will continue to prevail over finding the truth and people's health
