  1. <<snip>> dietary heme iron, but not saturated fat, was
    associated with GGT <<snip>>

    Am J Clin Nutr. 2004 Apr;79(4):600-5. Links

    Association between serum gamma-glutamyltransferase and
    dietary factors: the Coronary Artery Risk Development in
    Young Adults (CARDIA) Study.

    Lee DH, Steffen LM, Jacobs DR Jr.

    Division of Epidemiology, School of Public Health,
    University of Minnesota, Minneapolis (D-HL, LMS, and DRJ).

    BACKGROUND: Diet may be involved in the strong dose-response
    relation of gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) concentration
    with incident diabetes. OBJECTIVE: We examined dietary
    correlates of serum GGT activity. DESIGN: Study subjects
    were 3146 black and white men and women aged 17-35 y in 1985-
    1986. A diet history was taken at years 0 and 7. Food items
    were classified into alcohol; breaded, battered, or canned
    vegetables; fruit; fruit juice; refined grain; whole grain;
    dairy; legumes; meat; poultry; fish; fresh or frozen
    vegetables; nuts; and coffee. RESULTS: After adjustment for
    nondietary factors and other food groups, GGT was positively
    associated with alcohol consumption and meat intake.
    Geometric means of year 10 GGT across categories of alcohol
    consumption (0, 1-9, 10-19, 20-29, and >/==" BORDER="0"> 30
    g/d) were 17.7,
    18.8, 20.4, 21.8, and 24.8 U/L (P for trend < 0.01);
    corresponding means across quintiles of meat intake were
    19.2, 20.2, 20.5, 21.8, and 21.2 times/wk (P for trend <
    0.01). GGT was inversely associated with fruit intake.
    Among possible meat constituents, dietary heme iron, but
    not saturated fat, was associated with GGT. Dietary
    constituents typical of plant foods showed an inverse
    association. In contrast, vitamin supplements were
    positively associated with GGT. CONCLUSIONS: Serum GGT
    activity increased in a dose-response manner as alcohol
    and meat consumption increased and fruit consumption
    decreased. Heme iron contained in meats and
    micronutrients contained in fruits may influence GGT
    metabolism. However, micronutrients taken as supplements
    had a positive association with GGT.

    Teeth too small. Man is an omnivore, eating both plants and
    animals. That si worldwide too.

  4. Of course the mortality rate of the group is 100%, as
    always.

    But this summary says nothing about mortality. I suspect
    nobody in the group died of coronary artery disease, nor did
    they test for any other symptoms of related disease. The
    study's authors claim only a positive correlation between
    eating "meat"and GGT.

    Of course, it *might* have been helpful if they'd taken note
    as to what *kind* of meat was eaten. Whaddayathink?

    Oops. I just saw, "Jesus was a vegetarian". Don't worry your
    little head about it.

    We omnivores eat living things (mostly once killed).

    You vegetarians eat living things (mostly still alive).

    And I am vehemently opposed to vegetable sacrifice.

    "Take ye and drink, for this is the blood. . ." Jesus

    So, ya see, we are all the same.

    And I've got writinig on the bathroom that lists your mother
    as a good time. It's about as credible as throwing out
    Paul's gospels in paragraph one of your rants, and relying
    on the "Gnostic" texts, which simply haven't had the same
    historical review and verification as the actual Gospels:
    simply rely on whatever people happened to write about
    Christ in the centuries after his death who never even met
    the poor guy.

    And a moment of silence for the poor guy: it is Easter,
    after all, and the misuse of his name for nonsense in the
    millennia since his death probably has him pretty upset. For
    those of you who are curious about the misuse of his
    teachings, I strongly recommend the actual gospels.

    For those of you who are curious about the misuse of his
    teachings, I strongly recommend the actual gospels.

    But the gospels aren't corroborative. Mark was the only
    disciple who branded Herrod as being a child murderer (in an
    almost "passing" way) and yet that story is one of the best
    known to have come out of the time.

    I don't believe that Jesus was a veggie though, it's
    actually a ridiculous thought.
