Hey

I just experienced another “WOW” effect when reading a recent research report  This multinational University group looked at the relation between dietary linoleic acid (LA) and alpha linolenic acid (ALA) intake with cardiovascular, cancer and all-cause mortalities in patients with diabetes.

Summarised: they looked at the impact of Omega-3 intake in 3112 american diabetes patients during 9 years. YES 3112 patients! And they found spectacular results.

I hate it when information is not complete.  Recently ‘De Morgen’ published a nice article about the importance of iron deficiencies in women.

Iron deficiencies are indeed an under-estimated cause of health problems in women.  Health practitioners who take micronutrition seriously know this since a long time.

It makes me angry and sad at the same time to see that so many ‘experts’ and ‘journalists’ easily create and repeat Fake News about Food Supplements. Take EOS Wetenschap in Flanders. With the question ‘How safe are vitamin-D supplements’, EOS allows Patrick Mullie to simply declare that a person has died from an overdose of vitamin D supplements.  And that is a big lie!

Bart Van Loo has cleverly described in his book 'The Burgundians' why the term “Living as a Burgundian” applies so well to the Belgians.

The team around Professor Gibbons at Johns Hopkins University has most likely stunned the medical world with its latest publication in Nature. Even I was surprised that the positive effects of vitamin D supplementation on COVID-19 infections and mortality are so strong and clear!
