@marksuave25 Instead of fish oil, eat flax seeds. Just ground them with a coffee grinder and put them in a smoothie. Or have some flax seed oil on a salad. A lot healthier if you want your omega 3
I started taking a top of the line essential fatty acid 3 days ago. Today I have started having severe chest pain. I will not take anymore until consulting my doctor. What could be causing this?
Back to basics. Humans evolved in nutritional scarcity, eating almost nothing in concentration. It took a lot of outdoor activity to capture, collect, or grow food. It's a good bet we got daily megadoses of skin-manufactured vitamin D. D is critical in almost all mental and bodily functions - and NOT meant to be eaten! As for oil - we got plant oil without extracting it into concentration (bad) and then heating it (worse). The only thing we naturally found in concentration was animal fat.
@FederalReverse Yes, heating destroys plant-based oils, creating trans fats and hydrogenated oils. Unadulterated, UNprocessed Parent omega 6 and 3 were available to man throughout the ages by eating raw seeds in abundance. Food processing, unhealthy growing methods, and even fresh food treatments before reaching grocery stores is what makes modern Parent oils scarce, therefore supplementation is the best way to get them now. And yes, animal fat was a vital part of man's diet from the beginning.
MAGIC BULLET ALERT! Per URL 1_usa_gov/vaZoPH "Specific fatty acids rich in plant oils, such as linoleic acid (the parent omega-6 fatty acid), can amplify PCB toxicity in vascular endothelial cells [15]. There is also evidence that elevated levels of linoleic acid may enhance the cellular availability of PCBs [16]." Fishermen and land-locked Tibetans both live to 100.. working outside. Eat all foods, don't fry, go outdoors 2 hrs daily to get proper skin-produced vitamin D and never supplement.
@FederalReverse Unfortunately this is one of the main problems why medical recommendations keep failing us.They are simply wrong. Fully functional, unadulterated Parent omega-6 comprise the endothelial cells and are required. Fully functional linoleic acid (parent omega-6) is absolutely required. Please read my medically and scientifically referenced literature to gain a real understanding of these very important facts.

@spedshift Of course it's your prerogative to use any supplements you feel work for you. But I can assure you, I receive no monetary gain, no funding, and no money or benefits from Big Pharma. -B
Fish oil is anti-inflammatory, seed oils are inflammatory. Higher consumption of seed oils tracks with the US's increased rates of heart disease. Inflammation = heart disease.
@joshg6 Unfortunately this is the problem with parroting bad science. Years of research and real-life results are proof that these statements of inflammatory seed oils are incorrect. All of my work is scientifically and medically references, if you care to check the references for yourself. -B
The studies you cite, there are many variables that are possibly not accounted for. For example, what were the diets like of the people taking the fish oil? Heart disease is a result of too much carbs/sugar in the diet, as well as all these terrible polyunsaturated inflammatory vegetable oils. Do these studies prove that fish oil alone is what made the heart disease worse? Were the diets of the subjects monitored and kept the same? If not, these studies aren't conclusive.
@ThePhantomLash Thanks for your comment. It is possible the vitamin E is derived from soy. the amount should be insignificant compared to the amount of DHA/EPA. But fish oil supplements are not soy based. They are is fish-oil based.

He received an appointment as an Adjunct Professor at Texas Southern University in the Department of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (1998-1999).
In January 2003, a Texas District Court issued this injunction ordering Brian S. Peskin and his company to pay $100,000 to the State of Texas and to refrain from making a long list of unsubstantiated claims about their Radiant Health Products and Peskin's credentials.

Mr. Brian Scott Peskin has a formal education in electrical engineering. He is NOT a professor or doctor of medicine that he likes to portray!
On April 26, 2002, the Attorney General of Texas issued a complaint charging Brian S. Peskin and his company with making misleading claims about his credentials and three Radiant Health products they were marketing.
1. I don't believe any doctor who think its ok to advertise(good or bad) about a product.
-People who use Media as a source to prove something really needs to think about his credibility to the public
2. You say that its not ok to take these pill/supplements. Fine.
-Then what's your solution? We simply can't avoid eating fish when its part of people's diets and from what I can see it has done more good then harm to the public.
After years of being lectured and having designed own studies I wonder how reliable scientific enterprise is, lately. With limited & private sector funding & fissioning specializations, how many studies never replicated? Of them, how many are fraudulent? Even the well designed ones- SSRI (famous example) effectiveness approx.18% above placebo. Could be even less - we can't know, as cancelling both posit. and neg. placebo effects involves deception
Professor, it's not surprising at all, that people are fooled by the so-called studies conducted by the interested first party without a double-blind procedure and biased subject selection methods. Almost no one (and certainly not me) was lectured on the nature of scientific enterprise while back in High School. So science to most lay people is no different from religion.
Most simply act on "authoritarian" instincts with anything that sounds even remotely scientific, hence flourishing deception
First of all fish oil supplements are a processed food !and they become Rancid on the process . all fish is contaminated with MERCURY and PCB ...want to be healthy grow your own food and dont eat process foods my great grandmother died when she was 105 and she didnot take fish oil and no vitamin pills !! people are lazy to cook so they eat garbage ! and sit on the computure and on the cell phone getting emf radiation . and wonder why they have cancer or high blood pressure !
Brian, I was told that your absolutely amazing book, "The 24 Hour Diet" is going out of print. In my opinion, this book is far too important to go out of print. Have you considered making the book in "Kindle form" for Amazon dot com?

Hi, is there a downlink for this video. I'd like to show the video to my most annoying dad, who is always trying to persuade us to take fish oil supplements and all other sorts of stuff that he believes are beneficial. This is a guy who believes that Mangosteen will prevent cancer, and is very stubborn.
Prof. Peskin doesn't work for big pharma, but he is endeavoring to start his own "green" drug company so that his discoveries can be used in treatment of various illnesses via conventional channels. peskinpharma. com is his preliminary website.
Also, long chain fatty acids are prone to break-down, oxidation, and rancidity. When this occurs, they enter the blood stream as free radicals, which do make things worse. Therefore, get your monounsaturates and polyunsaturates fresh and don't leave them sitting around in sunlight, and don't cook with them.
From my experience I take a lot of Fish Oil capsules everyday, and I felt a whole lot better in my mood, and my joints worked again...I just don't agree with this Doctor.
After spending hours looking at the research that has come from Harvard, I have an seen enormous amount of information coming from them that supports the fact that Fish Oil helps on many levels. You quote only one, which I could not find. Wake up! If fish oil was killing people and causing harm, we would have no Japanese, no Chinese and certainly no Eskimos on the planet right now.
@mrarkansas2003 Key is difference btw "experiments" that don't get reversed & results of "studies" that get reversed all the time. Pls see my papers with full med & sci refs at brianpeskin(dot)com. Japanese have 25% more heart attacks (per 100,000 pop than Americans.) Eskimos eat meat diet of caribou, bear, etc not just fish. Read Hidden Story of Cancer. You can do much better than fish oil supps once you understand physiology & biochemistry. I replied to you via email msg more thoroughly. -B
@ProfessorNutrition So does that mean we can't eat fish either? Fish certainly have fish oil and fish has been certified that helps the brain, 2 per week. Or are we talking here of having fish oil on daily basis? Or just merely about fish oil derived from supps?
@mrarkansas2003 What is bad for man must be known to be "Bad". There is no need to seek justification from the eskimo, chinese and japanese. Over the centuries, they have built up a higher tolerance to poison. Olympic champions do not come from these people. They are short in stature and not healthy, compare their average 4.5 to 5" to the Caucasian and Indian who averages 6-8 Inches! Proof enough!
I don't expect anybody to automatically believe anything they hear by me or anyone else as fact. I am presenting it as possibility, to which nobody should close their mind.
First of all fish oil supplements are a processed food. That's one thing that makes them bad, secondly, quality is everything. Who knows what quality of fish oil were used in these experiments.
I believe there may be good high end and minimally processed fish oils in cold temperatures, but most is garbage
I have taking fish oil for about 3 weeks now. I have noticed a slight increase in mid chest irritation. The last Cholesterol test I had done a year and a half ago, showed my cholesterol at 132. I have an irregular heart beat so I was advised by a friend to take omega 3 for health. Now these videos have me thinking. Omega 3 should not be taken with Aspirin? What about with One-A-Day vitamins which I have been taking once a day for the last 13 years? All advice is welcomed!
u people are full of it IVE BEEN TAKEN FISH OIL SINCE I WAS 12 AND IM HEALTHY HAS A HORSE SO ARE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS!!!!!! SO PLEASE WHAT DOSENT WORK FOR U MIGHT WORK FOR OTHERS DUUUUUUH
Brian Peskin earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.) in 1979. He received an appointment as an Adjunct Professor at Texas Southern University in the Department of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (1998-1999). The former president of the University said of Brian's discoveries: "...His nutritional discoveries and practical applications through Life-Systems Engineering are unprecedented."
What was the appointment at TSU? You could have been a secretary. Usually you need at least a masters degree to teach at any University worth its salt...
Beyond that. Even if you were teaching students in the classroom, to continue calling yourself Professor years later is pretty shady. If you want to look shady, that's fine. You'll fool people who are too lazy to look at your credentials.
I looked up professor peskin on pubmed and he has only published 24 papers in peer reviewed journals. None of the papters had high impact factors. Most professors I know have to publish 3x that amount of papers before making it to professor status.
There is a big difference between electrical engineering and biology/biochemistry LOL
Yeah because the credibility of information a person has to present is solely determined by how many papers they've published. I commend your intelligence!
Cod liver oil is fish oil. All of the negatives stated in my video and other information is applicable to it. It is primarily omega 3 derivatives and inadequate for what your body needs and for cellular health. Cold-pressed, organic seed oils are far superior. Be sure to visit brianpeskin-dot-com for more info.
What? If fish oil is so worthless (6:10 on video 1) in preventing inflammation (tests: CRP and Lp-PLA2, these are indication markers of inflammation in the arterial walls) then why, within 2 months, did all my inflammation markers go from high inflammation down to normal range after taking 8gr. daily?
Inflammation can vary for numerous reason, and CRP is worthless as a marker of inflammation see brianpeskin DOT coms Failure of Statin Crestor. The Oct. 30, 2008 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine in a study authored by Borge Nordestgaard, MD, et al., conclusively proved its worthlessness as an inflammation marker.
However, the enzyme Lp-PLA(2) is a risk factor for CVD and is elevated in diabetics. Since fish oil raises resting blood glucose levels, a supposed decrease in Lp-PLA(2) from ingesting lots of fish oil makes no physiologic sense as it should increase, not decrease. If it indeed lowered, look for another reason.
Prof. Peskin, I'd really like to thank you for responding to my comment re. the fish oil. I'm honored and grateful for the feedback, since most professionals with valuable information like yourself, don't have (or perhaps don't take) the time to respond to a comment as you have. Again, thank you again, I appreciate you and your work.
You are correct in suggesting that I "look for another reason" for marker improvements. I neglected to state that along with the high volume of fish oil, I had also made other lifestyle changes that apparently influenced my improvements. I changed my diet to a very low carb, and added vitamin D3 to my supplement protocol as well as natural thyroid support and bio-identical hormone support. The change in these markers is nothing short of phenomenal.
Results: Total cholesterol down from 340 to 245 - triglycerides 176 to 94 - LDL went down from 239 to 155 - HDL went up from 61 to 72. Now, I realize cholesterol numbers are not as relevant as they have been made out to be, but I have not been able to move these numbers for 2 decades until now. Whether important or not, to see these numbers shift feels like a major accomplishment on my end.
Glucose 108 to 94. Insulin was lowered from 7.4 to 4. Lp-PLA(2) was 271 down to 162. Thyroid and sex hormones are now all in the normal range, except DHEA levels are still a bit low. Vit.D 25-OH D3 levels went from 40 to 61. And now for the big 'kahoona'.... (drum roll please) I went from 171 lbs. to 145 lbs. I'd like to lose another 25 lbs, I am 5' 2" tall. Needless to say, I am very pleased with my improvements.
In those studies the results occured from long term excessive use of Fish Oils, no? Wouldn't having it in moderation still be beneficial for you? Or are fish oils something I should just stay away from completely?
It is confusing, however the one thing that I understand is that the fishoil is NOT the omega 3, but durivatives........and your body makes them as needed......Yes, listen to video 2
You want to talk conspiracy? If we the people had a better/clearer understanding of how to eat to maintain/repair and better physically function we would NOT need to be worring about the Medical Insurance fiasco trying to take place right now as we would need so very little medical intervention.
Well you better also cut out smoking and drinking alcohol as those two contribute quite a bit. But then again how about environmental effects such as pollutions and the pesticides and growth hormones that is added to our foods. The plastic bottles water comes in is leaching estrogens, the water from the taps has fluorides and chlorides out in to it , GM foods etc.....
If you think about all this, you would not eat or drink anything....just take fish oil capsules and other supplements......
Textbooks usually contain out of date information. Books need to take information from research papers published in peer reviewed journals and summarise them, then send the book to print then send the books to shops. So the info in the book can be a few years behind. To see what is happening at the moment, you really need to read articles published in scientific journals
WRONG. For people, medical physiology & biochemistry do not change; just as gravitys action does not change mathematically as it was described hundreds of years ago. The #1 physiology text for physicians in North America, The Textbook of Medical Physiology is in its 10th edition with no significant changes. Studies change depending on who is financing them! Thats why recommendations constantly change and are reversed so often. Studies are not science. Never, ever forget this crucial fact.
Thank goodness for ProfessorNutrition who is so passionate; not for himself, but for the whole American Public (world public)
to be educated, EDUCATED on the Science, not the opinion of the physiology of the body. If we were actually taught the truth/science regarding the three food groups we would not have to worry so much about the cost of healthcare; there would be so much less healthcare needed.....
More than some conspiracy, it's a general lack of understanding how the body works and the difference between parent and derivative EFAs, as well as the importance of parent omega 6. I simply want to educate so people know the facts.
See what I mean? Here he is again! when you get just a little understanding of science, it all seems to fall into a very logical place =ing understanding.
Just go to his website and write and ask him. He is the best! and also gets body physiology information out of The Textbook of Medical Physiology in its 11 edition taught in med schools. Also lectures ph.d's and md's around the country.
I have already done that and I have had a reply from him. I don't mind someone putting forward a different point of view, but to come out and say taking the supplements is dangerous is not fair.
Any drug produced in this world will always cause problems in a percentage of people. But that's no reason to day its dangerous!
Fish oils and cod liver oils have been around for decades and and people who take it seem to be better off than those who don't!.
Thank you for presenting a clear succinct argument i can use on my husband and friends who believe all the fish oil hype and disbelieve my "24 hour diet" lifestyle change, even in the face of the optimum weight and health i have achieved.
who were these people you tested this on.. they sound like couch potatoes who smoke ^^

I talked to serveral respected doctors and they all said fish oil is very good for you but after watching this video I now know they are lieing and backed by fish oil companies who pay doctors to lie to people. Don;t beleive your doctor! professornutrition has already done the research for all of us. Go to his website and by his products today!

Hi, is there a downlink for this video. I'd like to show the video to my most annoying dad, who is always trying to persuade us to take fish oil supplements and all other sorts of stuff that he believes are beneficial. This is a guy who believes that Mangosteen will prevent cancer, and is very stubborn.

Prof. Peskin doesn't work for big pharma, but he is endeavoring to start his own "green" drug company so that his discoveries can be used in treatment of various illnesses via conventional channels. peskinpharma. com is his preliminary website.

Also, long chain fatty acids are prone to break-down, oxidation, and rancidity. When this occurs, they enter the blood stream as free radicals, which do make things worse. Therefore, get your monounsaturates and polyunsaturates fresh and don't leave them sitting around in sunlight, and don't cook with them.

I take 30mL of fish oil daily(equivalent to 30 capsules). My health is fine.
QuiksiIver 1 year ago
From my experience I take a lot of Fish Oil capsules everyday, and I felt a whole lot better in my mood, and my joints worked again...I just don't agree with this Doctor.

After spending hours looking at the research that has come from Harvard, I have an seen enormous amount of information coming from them that supports the fact that Fish Oil helps on many levels. You quote only one, which I could not find. Wake up! If fish oil was killing people and causing harm, we would have no Japanese, no Chinese and certainly no Eskimos on the planet right now.

@mrarkansas2003 Key is difference btw "experiments" that don't get reversed & results of "studies" that get reversed all the time. Pls see my papers with full med & sci refs at brianpeskin(dot)com. Japanese have 25% more heart attacks (per 100,000 pop than Americans.) Eskimos eat meat diet of caribou, bear, etc not just fish. Read Hidden Story of Cancer. You can do much better than fish oil supps once you understand physiology & biochemistry. I replied to you via email msg more thoroughly. -B

@ProfessorNutrition So does that mean we can't eat fish either? Fish certainly have fish oil and fish has been certified that helps the brain, 2 per week. Or are we talking here of having fish oil on daily basis? Or just merely about fish oil derived from supps?

@mrarkansas2003 What is bad for man must be known to be "Bad". There is no need to seek justification from the eskimo, chinese and japanese. Over the centuries, they have built up a higher tolerance to poison. Olympic champions do not come from these people. They are short in stature and not healthy, compare their average 4.5 to 5" to the Caucasian and Indian who averages 6-8 Inches! Proof enough!

For the record,
I don't expect anybody to automatically believe anything they hear by me or anyone else as fact. I am presenting it as possibility, to which nobody should close their mind.
First of all fish oil supplements are a processed food. That's one thing that makes them bad, secondly, quality is everything. Who knows what quality of fish oil were used in these experiments.
I believe there may be good high end and minimally processed fish oils in cold temperatures, but most is garbage

If this video proved anything, it is that most physicians have been misled and have no idea what health even means.
If anything, just double check the work of professor peskin and the experiments he's citing, that's where you'll find the truth.

2. weak publication record
3.He has links to companies selling parent oils, hense he rubishes fish oils.

I have taking fish oil for about 3 weeks now. I have noticed a slight increase in mid chest irritation. The last Cholesterol test I had done a year and a half ago, showed my cholesterol at 132. I have an irregular heart beat so I was advised by a friend to take omega 3 for health. Now these videos have me thinking. Omega 3 should not be taken with Aspirin? What about with One-A-Day vitamins which I have been taking once a day for the last 13 years? All advice is welcomed!

How can you call yourself a professor when you don't have a PhD or MD?
jaredmjohnson 2 years ago
Brian Peskin earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.) in 1979. He received an appointment as an Adjunct Professor at Texas Southern University in the Department of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (1998-1999). The former president of the University said of Brian's discoveries: "...His nutritional discoveries and practical applications through Life-Systems Engineering are unprecedented."
ProfessorNutrition 2 years ago
How is a bachelors in EE relevant?
What was the appointment at TSU? You could have been a secretary. Usually you need at least a masters degree to teach at any University worth its salt...
Beyond that. Even if you were teaching students in the classroom, to continue calling yourself Professor years later is pretty shady. If you want to look shady, that's fine. You'll fool people who are too lazy to look at your credentials.
jaredmjohnson 2 years ago 2
I looked up professor peskin on pubmed and he has only published 24 papers in peer reviewed journals. None of the papters had high impact factors. Most professors I know have to publish 3x that amount of papers before making it to professor status.
There is a big difference between electrical engineering and biology/biochemistry LOL

Brian Peskin?
I would love to see these publications.

Just had another look, it appears that he is first author of 4 papers, no last author suggesting that he is not a group leader.
However there is a Peskin B, BD and BS. SO you are correct, he has not got 24 papers!
an internet search showed that he is the front man for several companies selling supplement parent EFA oils.

sorry, I mean cold filtered cod liver oil
davelynchiepoo 2 years ago
Cod liver oil is fish oil. All of the negatives stated in my video and other information is applicable to it. It is primarily omega 3 derivatives and inadequate for what your body needs and for cellular health. Cold-pressed, organic seed oils are far superior. Be sure to visit brianpeskin-dot-com for more info.
ProfessorNutrition 2 years ago
What about cold pressed cod liver oil? should i avoid this?
davelynchiepoo 2 years ago
What? If fish oil is so worthless (6:10 on video 1) in preventing inflammation (tests: CRP and Lp-PLA2, these are indication markers of inflammation in the arterial walls) then why, within 2 months, did all my inflammation markers go from high inflammation down to normal range after taking 8gr. daily?
nature2rule 2 years ago
Inflammation can vary for numerous reason, and CRP is worthless as a marker of inflammation see brianpeskin DOT coms Failure of Statin Crestor. The Oct. 30, 2008 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine in a study authored by Borge Nordestgaard, MD, et al., conclusively proved its worthlessness as an inflammation marker.
ProfessorNutrition 2 years ago
However, the enzyme Lp-PLA(2) is a risk factor for CVD and is elevated in diabetics. Since fish oil raises resting blood glucose levels, a supposed decrease in Lp-PLA(2) from ingesting lots of fish oil makes no physiologic sense as it should increase, not decrease. If it indeed lowered, look for another reason.

Prof. Peskin, I'd really like to thank you for responding to my comment re. the fish oil. I'm honored and grateful for the feedback, since most professionals with valuable information like yourself, don't have (or perhaps don't take) the time to respond to a comment as you have. Again, thank you again, I appreciate you and your work.

You are correct in suggesting that I "look for another reason" for marker improvements. I neglected to state that along with the high volume of fish oil, I had also made other lifestyle changes that apparently influenced my improvements. I changed my diet to a very low carb, and added vitamin D3 to my supplement protocol as well as natural thyroid support and bio-identical hormone support. The change in these markers is nothing short of phenomenal.

Results: Total cholesterol down from 340 to 245 - triglycerides 176 to 94 - LDL went down from 239 to 155 - HDL went up from 61 to 72. Now, I realize cholesterol numbers are not as relevant as they have been made out to be, but I have not been able to move these numbers for 2 decades until now. Whether important or not, to see these numbers shift feels like a major accomplishment on my end.

Glucose 108 to 94. Insulin was lowered from 7.4 to 4. Lp-PLA(2) was 271 down to 162. Thyroid and sex hormones are now all in the normal range, except DHEA levels are still a bit low. Vit.D 25-OH D3 levels went from 40 to 61. And now for the big 'kahoona'.... (drum roll please) I went from 171 lbs. to 145 lbs. I'd like to lose another 25 lbs, I am 5' 2" tall. Needless to say, I am very pleased with my improvements.

In those studies the results occured from long term excessive use of Fish Oils, no? Wouldn't having it in moderation still be beneficial for you? Or are fish oils something I should just stay away from completely?
I'm getting mixed signals...

You want to talk conspiracy? If we the people had a better/clearer understanding of how to eat to maintain/repair and better physically function we would NOT need to be worring about the Medical Insurance fiasco trying to take place right now as we would need so very little medical intervention.
Darloma 2 years ago
Well you better also cut out smoking and drinking alcohol as those two contribute quite a bit. But then again how about environmental effects such as pollutions and the pesticides and growth hormones that is added to our foods. The plastic bottles water comes in is leaching estrogens, the water from the taps has fluorides and chlorides out in to it , GM foods etc.....
If you think about all this, you would not eat or drink anything....just take fish oil capsules and other supplements......
PROCESSOR302 2 years ago
Textbooks usually contain out of date information. Books need to take information from research papers published in peer reviewed journals and summarise them, then send the book to print then send the books to shops. So the info in the book can be a few years behind. To see what is happening at the moment, you really need to read articles published in scientific journals
PROCESSOR302 2 years ago
WRONG. For people, medical physiology & biochemistry do not change; just as gravitys action does not change mathematically as it was described hundreds of years ago. The #1 physiology text for physicians in North America, The Textbook of Medical Physiology is in its 10th edition with no significant changes. Studies change depending on who is financing them! Thats why recommendations constantly change and are reversed so often. Studies are not science. Never, ever forget this crucial fact.
ProfessorNutrition 2 years ago
Thank goodness for ProfessorNutrition who is so passionate; not for himself, but for the whole American Public (world public)
to be educated, EDUCATED on the Science, not the opinion of the physiology of the body. If we were actually taught the truth/science regarding the three food groups we would not have to worry so much about the cost of healthcare; there would be so much less healthcare needed.....
Darloma 2 years ago
Are you going to start talking about some sort of BIG FISH OIL CONSPIRACY............
PROCESSOR302 2 years ago
More than some conspiracy, it's a general lack of understanding how the body works and the difference between parent and derivative EFAs, as well as the importance of parent omega 6. I simply want to educate so people know the facts.
ProfessorNutrition 2 years ago
See what I mean? Here he is again! when you get just a little understanding of science, it all seems to fall into a very logical place =ing understanding.
Darloma 2 years ago
Prof Peskin, I have seen some of you publications on PUBMED (Darloma should look some of them up also)
I note that you work for a pharmaceutical / supplements company, what products do these companies you sell?
PROCESSOR302 2 years ago
All of his evidence is quite old, 1995 - 2004 and he only talked about heart diseases!
I would like to see some up to date references.
Animal models are not always an accurate prediction of anything as rodents are very different to humans.
Also, he mentioned around 6 research papers that were negative, how many during the 1995-2004 period were actually positive?
PROCESSOR302 2 years ago 2
Just go to his website and write and ask him. He is the best! and also gets body physiology information out of The Textbook of Medical Physiology in its 11 edition taught in med schools. Also lectures ph.d's and md's around the country.
Darloma 2 years ago
I have already done that and I have had a reply from him. I don't mind someone putting forward a different point of view, but to come out and say taking the supplements is dangerous is not fair.
Any drug produced in this world will always cause problems in a percentage of people. But that's no reason to day its dangerous!
Fish oils and cod liver oils have been around for decades and and people who take it seem to be better off than those who don't!.
