The food pyramid for kid however is not telling kids to eat everything in the same amounts. The same age old advice still holds about eating more grains, fruits and vegetables than other food types. Oils and sugar should be eaten in smaller portions. Parents should also note that some foods in each category should not be eaten in great amounts. Fruit pies and tetra pack juices for example do not necessarily contain the same nutrients as real fruits and should only be taken occasionally.

Many nutrients found within foods have the ability to block or modulate prostaglandin synthesis. These include sulfur compounds found in garlic, onions and cruciferous vegetables, and various minerals, particularly the divalent cations zinc, copper, lithium, silver, selenium, and calcium.12 A variety of fresh whole foods, (raw if possible) grown on nutrient-rich soils (as opposed to modern agribusiness mined soils where only nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium -- NPK fertilizers -- are replaced) provides the body with raw materials which augment proper fatty acid nutrition and may lessen or obviate the need for potentially dangerous drugs.

Other nonpharmacologic factors which may help produce more "friendly" lipid profiles include decreased stress, increased exercise and the elimination of tobacco and perhaps caffeine.13 Highly refined carbohydrate and sugar diets increase cardiovascular disease risk perhaps through increased glycosylation reactions, increased lipoprotein (a) levels and decreasing HDL levels.14 Calcium at 800 mg per day can decrease cholestero1.15 Chromium deficiency can decrease glucose tolerance factor and thus affect sugar metabolism and adversely affect lipid proflies.16Legumes, soluble fiber, garlic and onions can decrease cholesterol levels.17 Vitamin C at 1000 mg per day and vitamin E at 200-400 I.U. per day are excellent antioxidants and can decrease glycosylation reactions, decrease cholesterol and increase HDL'S.18 Pantethine, a derivative of pantothenic acid at 300 mg. 3-4 times daily,19 and niacin from 1-4 grams daily can positively affect lipids. Niacin in fact is one of the few agents capable of lowering genetically controlled Lp(a) levels.20 L-carnitine, an amino acid, at 1000 mg per day can ameliorate hyperlipoproteinemia.21

These nutrients are supplied in a varied whole raw food diet. Some researchers argue, however, that therapeutic levels of some nutrients are not possible from simply consuming natural foods. An accumulated deficit from a lifetime of dietary indiscretion may indeed require a boost. Disease, an extraordinary event, may require extraordinary measures to effect a cure. But before consuming any isolated nutrient become well aware of its merits and demerits since some nutrients can present toxicities or imbalances at certain levels. Guidance by a well qualified nutritional health care professional would be advised for anyone with existing disease who desires to use isolated nutrients in therapy.
