fatnews.com Hi, this is Larry Hobbs @ FatNews.com. This is an excerpt from a letter by Richard Moore, MD, PhD dated August 31, 2009. Dr. Moore’s received his MD from Indiana University, and his Ph.D. in biophysics from Purdue University. Starting in 1963, Dr. Moore spent 40 years as a college professor and research scientist teaching and researching cellular biophysics. Dr. Moore’s research group research group discovered that insulin regulates the activity of the mechanism that exchanges potassium for sodium in live cells. Dr. Moore’s group also also discovered that, connected with this, insulin elevates the pH inside cells. This research and that of others then led to insights in how our dietary imbalance between potassium and sodium cause hypertension and other diseases. “Since recognizing the critical importance of the dietary ratio of potassium-to-sodium (in 1983), I have been trying to educate the public about this issue primarily by writing books.” Dr. Moore is the author of several books including “The High Blood Pressure Solution”. Dr. Moore is the also co-author of “The Salt Solution”. This book discusses how an imbalance of potassium and sodium not only affects: stroke hypertension but also how it affects: osteoporosis stomach cancer asthma kidney disease “During the summer of 1956, between my junior and senior year in medical school, I was fortunate to work in the research laboratories of Eli Lilly.” “It was a wonderful experience.” “All of the scientists …
