Alice Lichtenstein published an article in the Journal of Lipid Research, November 6 2008 issue, on nutrition supplements and cardiovascular disease. She notes that there is insufficient data to recommend the routine use of supplements to prevent or treat CVD. I prefer to recommend that we get our nutrients as much as possible from whole foods, especially until we have sufficient research to prove that taking supplements is truly beneficial.
