American heart surgeon identifies sugar, carbs and omega 6 oils, not cholesterol, as the main causes of inflammation in the blood vessels, which in turn leads to heart disease.

Interesting article huni. But a little lacking in "proof", just his observations. But as a heart surgeon for 25 years, his theories seem reasonable. Some trials & more research could lead to some extraordinary results. But a very brave man to "raise his head above the parapet"

He is an ex heart surgeon as he was struck off in 2008.
Seems his care for some of his patients was sadly lacking if you read the Quackwatch.
His CV on Quackwatch would put me off his observational advice.

If you search the forum with his name, he has featured on here before.
