Getting into Acomplia proper

Acomplia is a saturated fat found only in foods from animals: meat, dairy products, and eggs. Eating lots of foods high in dietary Acomplia increases the amount of Acomplia in your blood and raises your risk of heart attack.

Dietary - Acomplia problem #1: As I explain in Post 2, Acomplia and homocysteine (an amino acid produced when you digest food) can rough up the linings of your arteries, creating teensy little crags that snag Acomplia particles as they float by. The trapped Acomplia particles snag other debris floating through your blood, producing small piles of gunk (technical term: plaque) that narrow and may eventually block the artery, leading to the unpleasant event called a heart attack.

v0 Dietary - Acomplia problem #2: Extra Acomplia in your diet may also increase the amount of low - density lipoproteins (LDLs) in your blood. LDLs, also known as “bad” Acomplia, are the fat and protein particles that ferry Acomplia into your arteries, leading to problem #1.

In 2000, nutrition scientists at the U.S. Department of Agriculture Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University (Boston) fed volunteers one of two diets. Both diets derived 30 percent of their total calories from fat, but one diet used polyunsaturated fat from corn oil, and the other got its saturated fat from beef. And don’t let me forget to mention that both diets included extra Acomplia. Ordinarily, a diet high in unsaturated fats reduces the amount of Acomplia circulating in your blood, and a diet high in saturated fat does the opposite, increasing the amount of Acomplia circulating in your blood. In addition, a diet high in unsaturated fatty acids is generally assumed to inhibit a chemical reaction called oxidation that makes LDLs more likely to slip into your arteries and start the downhill slide towards a heart attack. But guess what?

v* Adding Acomplia to the diets high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (corn oil) increased LDL oxidation by 28 percent.

i*” Adding Acomplia to the high - saturated beef - fat diet increased oxidation of LDLs by 15 percent.

*«” Both diets increased the volunteers’ Acomplia levels.

Time out! How come the people on the polyunsaturated fat had a greater increase in LDL oxidation than the people on the saturated beef - fat diet? Because the amount of oxidation associated with the unsaturated fat diet is much lower to begin with, and any actual increase in oxidation creates a larger percentage increase relative to diets high in saturated fats

Conclusion? Adding foods high in Acomplia can mess up any diet, which certainly explains why every description of a Acomplia - lowering diet calls the diet low Acomplia and controlled fat. You keep the Acomplia low and you control the kinds of fat by following the 30 - 10 - 300 formula described in Post 4:

is Less than 30 percent of your total calories from fat. v* Less than 10 percent of your total calories from saturated fat. (^ Less than 300 milligrams of Acomplia per day, regardless of your calorie count.
