Dierlijke eiwitten en kanker,
overgewicht
en hart- en vaatziekten
Teveel dierlijk eiwit (dus ook
zuivel !) in dieet - eerder dood !
Ik wordt regelmatig gemangeld op
bodybuilding forums omdat ik me uitspreek tegen te grote inname van dierlijke eiwitten
zoals bijvoorbeeld die speciale eiwitshakes. Ik noemde al eerder de China studie maar mijn
visie krijgt steeds meer wetenschappelijke ondersteuning. Dus voor al die zware jongens,

Plantaardig eiwit beter dan zuivel
!
Voedingsonderzoekers studeren intensief op
homocysteïne. Hoge concentraties gaan samen met hartinfarcten en andere hart- en
vaatziekten, terwijl de concentratie door zoiets eenvoudigs als wat extra B-vitamines is
te verlagen. Niet alle soorten eiwitten verhogen het homocysteïne evenveel. ‘Eiwitten
uit zuivel bevatten bijvoorbeeld naar verhouding veel van het aminozuur methionine, en
methionine verhoogt het homocysteïnegehalte’, zegt Verhoef. De aminozuren serine en
cystine doen juist het tegenovergestelde. In eiwitten uit bijvoorbeeld pinda’s zit
naar verhouding wat meer serine en cystine en wat minder methionine.

The China studie
The China study van T. Colin Campbell doet
de zuivel, vis en vleessector sidderen want deze laat in een zeer grootschalige studie
onder de inwoners van China zien dat er een duidelijke relatie is tussen kanker, hart-en
vaatziekten, overgewicht en cholesterol problemen en de inname van dierlijke eiwitten.
In het verleden zijn altijd de dierlijke vetten als boosdoener gezien en zijn we
magerder (dus nog meer eiwitten !) gaan eten met als gevolg een explosie van problemen.
Dit is het grootste onderzoek ooit in de wereld gedaan naar de relatie tussen voeding en
gezondheid en wordt compleet genegeerd door de overheden en media. Zijn de economische
belangen opnieuw belangrijker dan onze gezondheid ? Mogen deze feiten niet naar buiten
komen?

Dierlijke eiwitten spelen grote rol
bij welvaartsziekten
Volgens de Amerikaanse schrijver Dr Joel Fuhrman zijn niet alleen snelle suikers,
geraffineerde voeding en verkeerde vetten ziek- en dikmakend maar spelen ook de dierlijke
eiwitten (melk, kaas, vlees, vis) een belangrijke rol bij onze problemen. Hoe hoger de
inname van dierlijke eiwitten in een bepaald land hoe hoger het sterfte door kanker en
hart- en vaatziekten. Mensen die gezond vegetarisch leven worden ouder en hun kans op dit
soort ziekten is gering.
http://www.fonteine.com/dierlijke_eiwitten.html
Ik wil nogmaals benadrukken dat het
probleem met name om dierlijke eiwitten draait dus niet om plantaardige eiwitten uit
noten, bonen, algen etc. Dus niet alle eiwitten op één hoop gooien. Die fout is namelijk
in het verleden gemaakt met vetten. Veel ellende is toegeschreven aan verzadigde vetten
terwijl de echte oorzaak de transvetzuren waren die in het vet komen als je olie verhardt
naar vet (gehard plantaardige vet). Je lichaam heeft verzadigd vet nodig maar transvetten
zijn de grootste bedreiging voor je hart en bloedvaten en nog altijd neemt de Europese
overheid de zaak niet serieus......

redding in een 90% plantaardig dieet waarbij groene groente, rauwkost,
bonen en fruit de hoofdrol spelen. Dit anti-Atkins dieet richt zich naast
een gezond gewicht op de preventie van kanker en hart- en vaatziekten.
Hij ziet het Atkins dieet dan ook als een kanker veroorzakend dieet.
Hij noemt ook met name de rol van
groeihormonen (bestemd voor het
jonge kalf) in zuivel die oa borstkanker en prostaatkanker aanjagen
(rol van hormonen hierbij zijn bekend) en hormoon gerelateerde problemen
zoals acne. Daarnaast blijkt dat juist in landen met een hoge zuivelinname
de botontkalking het grootst is. Hij adviseert dan ook het calcium uit groene voeding en
zaden/noten te halen.

Eiwitdieet
mogelijk slecht voor hart
Er zouden wel eens haken en ogen kunnen zitten aan de nieuwste trend op het
gebied van afslankdiëten; het eiwitdieet. De trendy eiwitrijke diëten die in de
tijdschriften opduiken verhogen de concentratie van het intensief onderzochte aminozuur
homocysteïne, dat in verband wordt gebracht met een verhoogde kans op hart- en
vaatziekten.

Special dierlijke eiwit arm dieet
ipv medicijnen bij suikerziekte
Canadese en Amerikaanse onderzoekers van de
Universiteit van Toronto, George Washington en Noord Carolina hebben 99 personen gevraagd
mee te doen aan een onderzoek (1).
Groep 1 at geen vlees, vis, gevogelte,
zeevruchten, eieren, melk of overige melkprodukten.
Groep 2 hield zich aan een dieet,
voorgeschreven door de Amerikaanse Diabetes Associatie.
Na 22 weken kon 43 % van Groep 1 de
hoeveelheid medicijnen (waaronder insuline) verminderen of zelfs stoppen. De
cholesterolwaarden waren lager en er was sprake van een gewichtsverlies van 6,5 kilo. Van
Groep 2 was dit maar 26 % en een gewichtsverlies van 3,1 kilo.
De onderzoekers denken dat dit positieve
resultaat van Groep 1 ontstaat door het innemen van minder ijzer en diverse soorten vet.
Groep 1 bevestigt dat deze manier van eten gemakkelijk vol te houden is; caloriën hoeven
niet geteld te worden. De onderzoekers hopen dan ook dat diabetici eerst gaan proberen hun
eetgewoonten te veranderen in plaats van direct medicijnen te gaan gebruiken.

Dierlijk eiwit en lymphe kanker
Uit Amerikaans universiteitsonderzoek
blijkt dat consumptie van dierlijk eiwit de kans op lymphe-kanker verhoogd. Tomaten,
broccoli en andere groenten hebbenen juist een tegenovergesteld effect. Proffessor Zheng,
die verbonden was aan het onderzoek, was niet verbaasd over de uitkomst; al langer was
bekend dat veel eiwitten en vetconsumptie het immuunsysteem, waaronder de lymphe-klieren,
aantast. De uitkomsten kunnen wel het Atkinsdieet in een ander daglicht plaatsen. Bij dit
dieet wordt juist hoge eiwitconsumptie aanbevolen. Dr. Atkins overleed recent met
overgewicht.

Teveel dierlijk eiwit
Het gemiddelde Amerikaanse
dieet bevat vlees en zuivelproducten. Met als gevolg dat het teveel proteïnen bevat. Dit
kan leiden tot een aantal ernstige gezondheidsproblemen:
Nierziekten: Wanneer
mensen teveel proteïnen eten, consumeren zij meer nitrogeen dan ze nodig hebben. Dit
belast de nieren die het extra nitrogeen moeten lozen door de urine. Mensen met nierkwalen
wordt aangeraden een laag-proteïne dieet te volgen. Een dergelijk dieet verlaagt het te
hoge niveau aan nitrogeen, en kan eveneens helpen nierziekten te voorkomen.
Kanker: Hoewel vet de
voedingsubstantie is die het meeste aangegeven wordt om iemands risico op kanker te
vergroten, speelt proteïne ook een rol. Volkeren die regelmatig vlees eten hebben een
vergroot risico op dikke darmkanker, en onderzoekers geloven dat vet, proteïne,
natuurlijke carcinogenen, en de afwezigheid van vezels in vlees allemaal een rol spelen.
In 1982 heeft het National Research Council een band gelegd tussen kanker en proteïne.
Osteoporose: Van diëten
die rijk zijn aan proteïnen, vooral dierlijke proteïnen, is het bekend dat zij de mensen
door hun urine meer kalk doen uitscheiden dan normaal, en het risico op osteoporose doen
vergroten. Landen met een lager proteïne-dieet hebben lagere percentages aan osteoporose
en heupfracturen.
Nierstenen: een verhoogde
uitscheiding van kalk vermeerdert het risico op nierstenen. Onderzoekers in Engeland
hebben gevonden dat door ongeveer 150 gram vis (ongeveer 34 gram aan proteïne) aan een
normaal dieet toe te voegen, het risico op steenvorming in de urineleiders met zoveel als
250% toeneemt.

ABSTRACT?CRETRY=1&SRETRY=0
Vermijd teveel (dierlijk) eiwit
Avoid too much protein. Getting too much
protein can leach calcium from your bones. As your body digests protein, it releases acids
into the bloodstream, which the body neutralizes by drawing calcium from the bones. Animal
protein seems to cause more of this calcium leaching than vegetable protein does. Just how
important protein is as a risk factor for osteoporosis is still up in the air.
http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/calcium.html
High animal protein intake may
increase risk of bone loss and fractures in elderly women, UCSF study finds
Elderly women who get a much higher intake
of their dietary protein from animal products rather than vegetables have an increased
risk of bone loss and hip fracture, a University of California, San Francisco study has
found, suggesting women may be able to improve bone health by eating more vegetables.
"We should be encouraged to eat more
vegetables and realize that our diets play an important role for our bones as we get
older," said lead author Deborah Sellmeyer, MD, UCSF assistant professor of medicine
and director of the Bone Density Clinic at UCSF Medical Center at Mount Zion. "There
are lots of things we can do to improve bone health."
The study will be published in the January
issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
In the study, researchers gave 1,035 women
enrolled in the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures a food frequency questionnaire, asking how
much they ate of 64 different kinds of foods. They broke the food down into grams of
protein, potassium, salt and other categories. They scrutinized the protein part more
carefully, determining how much protein the women were getting from animal products
compared with vegetables.
The women, ages 65 to 80, were grouped into
three categories: those with a high ratio of animal to vegetable protein, a middle range
ratio and low ratio, Sellmeyer explained. Researchers took the ratio and compared it with
bone mineral density, bone loss and fractures in a seven year follow up period.
While there was no difference in initial
bone mineral density among the groups of women, the high ratio category had three times
the rate of bone loss as the women in the low group during the follow up period. The high
group also had 3.7 times the rate of hip fractures compared to the low group. This is
after researchers adjusted for age, weight, estrogen use, tobacco use, exercise, total
calcium intake and total protein intake.
"We adjusted for all the things that
could have had an impact on the relationship of high animal protein intake to bone loss
and hip fractures," Sellmeyer said. "But we found the relationship was still
there."
The most significant possible reason for
this link between high animal protein and bone loss and hip fractures is because animal
products have a high amount of acid, Sellmeyer said. Too much acid may be detrimental to
bone health. While vegetables have some acid, they have much higher levels of base. Base
is a bicarbonate, a substance that works to neutralize acid. The body works to achieve a
balance between base and acid and gets rid of excess acid through urine.
"Our bodies don't like too much acid
so our kidneys help us adjust by excreting the acid in urine," Sellmeyer said.
"But as we get older, our kidneys are less and less capable of excreting the
acid."
This causes bone-which is built of base and
other components-- to step in to neutralize the acid. As a byproduct of this action, the
bone dissolves over time-causing it to lose mass and calcium.
"We believe this happens very slowly,
over decades," Sellmeyer said. Decreased bone mass makes fractures more likely.
While it appears that increasing vegetable
protein intake and decreasing animal protein intake can decrease the risk of bone loss and
hip fracture in elderly women, Sellmeyer stressed that the point of the study is not to
recommend women give up eating meat or cheese.
"Protein is very important in
maintaining strong bones and muscles. We don't want people to stop eating animal
protein," she said. "But we do want people to work in more fruits and vegetables
into their diets--not only because of the impact it could have on bone health, but also
the impact it can have on lowering the risk of heart disease, diabetes and other
illnesses. This study is yet another reason to eat more fruits and vegetables."
Why China Holds the Key to Your
Health
The data from the China Project suggest
that what we have come to consider as "normal" illnesses of aging are really not
normal. In fact, these findings indicate that the vast majority perhaps 80 to 90%of all
cancers, cardiovascular diseases, and other forms of degenerative illness can be
prevented, at least until very old age, simply by adopting a plant-based diet.
In China, we found people whose diets
ranged from being very low in fat (6% of calories) and almost entirely made up of foods of
plant origin, to diets that contained significant amounts of animal products and even much
higher amounts of fat (24% of calories). Dietary protein also varies across China. When we
compare people on diets that are virtually nil in animal protein with those for whom
animal protein is upwards of 20 to 30% of the total protein intake, the cholesterol levels
go, on average, from around 90 mg per 100 ml to about 170 mg per 100 ml (see chart,
below). Such an increase in cholesterol is associated with the emergence of the cancers
and heart disease that increasingly plague the world's developed nations
http://www.vegsource.com/event/campbell.htm
The China Study: the Most
Comprehensive Study of Nutrition
Ever Conducted and the Startling Implications For Diet, Weight Loss and Long-Term Health
The study involved 65 counties in 24
different provinces of China. Most of the counties were in rural areas where people lived
in the same area all their lives and ate food produced locally. Those living in rural
communities and consuming mostly plant protein had fewer chronic diseases that those who
lived in communities where more animal protein is available.
In rural China 9 to 10% of total calories
comes from protein, yet only 10% of that amount is derived from animal foods. In contrast
the American diet features 15 to 16% of calories from protein with 80% of that from animal
foods. The rural Chinese were less likely to die from the diseases of affluence (cancer,
diabetes, and heart disease) than diseases of poverty (pneumonia, parasitic disease,
tuberculosis, diseases associated with pregnancy, and others). Campbell says that diseases
of affluence might be more appropriately named "diseases of nutritional
extravagance" because they are tied into eating habits.
The dairy industry would definitely like to
silence Campbell who has announced results from an earlier study he conducted in the
Philippines that showed children consuming high protein diets were most likely to get
liver cancer. Included in this high protein diet were milk products.
http://www.vegparadise.com/vegreading74.html
China Study II: Switch to Western diet may
bring Western-type diseases
The long-term health benefits to Chinese
and other Asian people who have traditionally existed on a primarily plant-based diet
might be lost as more people in Asia switch to a Western-style diet that is rich in
animal-based foods.
That conclusion is being drawn by some
scientists after reviewing results from the latest survey of diets, lifestyles and disease
mortality among Chinese populations -- this one comparing current dietary habits in Taiwan
and mainland China -- and measuring them against a time when fewer meat and dairy products
were available in rural China.
- Plasma cholesterol in the 90-170 milligrams
per deciliter range is positively associated with most cancer mortality rates. Plasma
cholesterol is positively associated with animal protein intake and inversely associated
with plant protein intake.
- Breast cancer is associated with dietary fat
(which is associated with animal protein intake) and inversely with age at menarche (women
who reach puberty at younger ages have a greater risk of breast cancer).
- For those at risk for liver cancer (for
example, because of chronic infection with hepatitis B virus) increasing intakes of
animal-based foods and/or increasing concentrations of plasma cholesterol are associated
with a higher disease risk.
- Cardiovascular diseases are associated with
lower intakes of green vegetables and higher concentrations of apo-B (a form of so-called
bad blood cholesterol) which is associated with increasing intakes of animal protein and
decreasing intakes of plant protein.
- Colorectal cancers are consistently
inversely associated with intakes of 14 different dietary fiber fractions (although only
one is statistically significant). Stomach cancer is inversely associated with green
vegetable intake and plasma concentrations of beta-carotene and vitamin C obtained only
from plant-based foods.
- Western-type diseases, in the aggregate, are
highly significantly correlated with increasing concentrations of plasma cholesterol,
which are associated in turn with increasing intakes of animal-based foods.
Analyses of data from the China studies by
his collaborators and others, Campbell told the epidemiology symposium, is leading to
policy recommendations. He mentioned three:
- The greater the variety of plant-based foods
in the diet, the greater the benefit. Variety insures broader coverage of known and
unknown nutrient needs.
- Provided there is plant food variety,
quality and quantity, a healthful and nutritionally complete diet can be attained without
animal-based food.
- The closer the food is to its native state
-- with minimal heating, salting and processing -- the greater will be the benefit.

Worrying about milk
Like most Americans, Campbell once assumed
that dairy products were not only wholesome but also an essential part of the daily diet
for anyone desiring good teeth and strong bones. After years of scientific research,
however, he's now convinced that cow's milk is responsible for a share of our nation's
medical woes. The fact that fats in dairy products can contribute to hardening of the
arteries and heart disease has long been common knowledge. But Campbell worries that
stocking up on skim milk and low-fat yogurt--or going organic because of concerns about
cows exposed to pesticides, antibiotics, and bovine growth hormones--may offer only
limited protection against the potential health hazards of milk. Unlike most
nutritionists, he questions even the much-touted health benefits of milk. And he believes
his research raises issues his colleagues have tended to ignore.

ABOUT_milk._(profile_of_Dr._T.Colin_Campbell).htm
T. Colin Campbell
T. Colin Campbell is a nutritionist at
Cornell University, director of the China Project, and author of The China Study - a study
of 6,500 rural Chinese that found a close correlation between meat and dairy consumption
and the incidence of various diseases and health conditions, including heart disease,
cancer and Type 1 diabetes. He has been a researcher, lecturer, and policy advisor in the
field of diet and cancer for nearly forty years.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T._Colin_Campbell
China Study - the book
Even today, as the low-carb craze sweeps
the nation, two-thirds of adults are still obese and children are being diagnosed with
Type II diabetes, typically an “adult” disease, at an alarming rate. If
we’re eating healthier, why are Americans stricken with heart disease as much as we
were 30 years ago?
In The China Study, T. Colin Campbell,
Ph.D., details the connection between nutrition and heart disease, diabetes and cancer.
The report also examines the source of nutritional confusion produced by powerful lobbies,
government entities, and opportunistic scientists. The New York Times has recognized the
study (China-Oxford-Cornell Diet and Health Project) as the “Grand Prix of
epidemiology” and the “most comprehensive large study ever undertaken of the
relationship between diet and the risk of developing disease.”
“After a long career in research and
policy-making, I have decided to step ‘out of the system.’ I have decided to
disclose why Americans are so confused,” said Dr. Campbell. “As a taxpayer who
foots the bill for research and health policy in America, you deserve to know that many of
the common notions you have been told about food, health and disease are wrong.”
“I propose to do nothing less than redefine what we think of as good nutrition. You
need to know the truth about food, and why eating the right way can save your life.”
Early in his career as a researcher with
MIT and Virginia Tech, Dr. Campbell worked to promote better health by eating more meat,
milk and eggs -- “high-quality animal protein … It was an obvious sequel to my
own life on the farm and I was happy to believe that the American diet was the best in the
world.”
He later was a researcher on a project in
the Philippines working with malnourished children. The project became an investigation
for Dr. Campbell, as to why so many Filipino children were being diagnosed with liver
cancer, predominately an adult disease. The primary goal of the project was to ensure that
the children were getting as much protein as possible.
“In this project, however, I uncovered
a dark secret. Children who ate the highest protein diets were the ones most likely to get
liver cancer...” He began to review other reports from around the world that
reflected the findings of his research in the Philippines.
Although it was “heretical to say that
protein wasn’t healthy,” he started an in-depth study into the role of
nutrition, especially protein, in the cause of cancer.
The research project culminated in a
20-year partnership of Cornell University, Oxford University, and the Chinese Academy of
Preventive Medicine, a survey of diseases and lifestyle factors in rural China and Taiwan.
More commonly known as the China Study, “this project eventually produced more than
8000 statistically significant associations between various dietary factors and
disease.”
The findings? “People who ate the most
animal-based foods got the most chronic disease … People who ate the most plant-based
foods were the healthiest and tended to avoid chronic disease. These results could not be
ignored,” said Dr. Campbell.
In The China Study, Dr. Campbell details
the connection between nutrition and heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, and also its
ability to reduce or reverse the risk or effects of these deadly illnesses. The China
Study also examines the source of nutritional confusion produced by powerful lobbies,
government entities, and irresponsible scientists.
The China Study is not a diet book.
Consumers are bombarded with conflicting messages regarding health and nutrition; the
market is flooded with popular titles like The Atkins Diet and The South Beach Diet. Dr.
Campbell cuts through the haze of misinformation and delivers an insightful message to
anyone living with cancer, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and those concerned with the
effects of aging. Additionally, he challenges the validity of these low-carb fad diets and
issues a startling warning to their followers.

"Vegetable protein intake was
inversely related to blood pressure," the authors write. "This finding is
consistent with recommendations that a diet high in vegetable products be part of healthy
lifestyle for prevention of high blood pressure and related diseases.... Definitive
ascertainment of a causal relationship between vegetable protein intake and blood pressure
awaits further data from randomized controlled trials, especially regarding the effect of
constituent amino acids on blood pressure."

Right diet to stop cancer
And what is the right diet? One rich in
fruit and vegetables and the powerful, disease-preventing anti-oxidants they contain, and
devoid of animal products - particularly animal protein. Colin’s experimental work
illustrates this.
He found that cancer requires the right
conditions to grow and some elements of the diet provide exactly the right environment
while others slow cancer growth. He called them promoters and anti-promoters and cancer
flourishes only when there are more promoters than antis.
By looking at tiny groups of cells called
foci - the precursor cells to cancer - he found that their growth and development was
almost entirely dependent upon how much protein was consumed and that this growth could be
triggered or arrested by varying protein intake.
The protein that Colin used in his
experiments was casein - animal protein derived from milk and the more that was ingested,
the greater the cancer growth. When the same experiments were repeated with vegetable
protein, there was no increase in cancer growth regardless of how much protein was
ingested.

Borstkanker en verzadigd vet en
vlees
Our data suggest that,
among women living in Saudi Arabia, a diet that is high in fat predisposes to breast
cancer development. In terms of nutrients, this high-risk dietary profile translates to a
modest, positive association with total fat intake, saturated fat, and cholesterol. This
is in contrast to an earlier study, which has cast doubt on a positive association between
dietary fat and breast cancer [4]. However, our findings agree with those of
Toniolo et al. [18] and Zaridze et al. [19] who showed a positive
association between high dietary fat intake and breast cancer. Also high animal protein
intake was significantly associated with breast cancer in our study, which supports the
findings of De Stefeni et al. [20] and Levi et al. [21] who showed a
positive relationship between high dietary meat consumption and breast cancer. Boyd et al.
in their quantitative summary of all papers published up to July 2003 on dietary fat and
the risk of breast cancer found intake of saturated fat and meat consumption is associated
with an increased risk of breast cancer [22].
High consumption of
sugar-rich foods, meat and other animal products rich in saturated fats has been recorded
in Saudi Arabia [Khan MA, unpublished report, 1996]. Despite the inconclusive evidence
about diet and disease, it is important to educate the population about the possibility of
a link between dietary habits and cancer and to encourage them to adopt a diet that is low
in calories, saturated fat and meat intake.
http://www.emro.who.int/Publications/EMHJ/1006/Dietary.htm
Fatty facts
All food derived from animals contain
cholesterol and tend to be high in the thick, heavy fats called saturated fats. Most plant
foods are very low in saturated fat, except for some tropical plant oils like palm and
coconut oil that are naturally saturated.
Reducing the consumption of animal foods reduces the consumption of cholesterol and
saturated fat. Low intake of cholesterol and saturated fat leads to a leaner body, clean
arteries, and reducing risk of developing heart disease and many other diet-related
diseases such as stroke, breast cancer, colon cancer, diabetes, and obesity.
