Pourquoi les abats ne causent pas seulement la goutte

Cette semaine, je vais aborder le sujet des abats qui cause beaucoup de confusion, mais si vous utilisez le bon sens, vous serez logiquement d'accord avec ma brève thèse. La consommation d'abats est très populaire dans le monde entier, mais plus particulièrement en dehors des États-Unis, principalement en Asie. Les abats peuvent inclure le foie, les reins, le cœur, le cerveau, la langue, la tripe et de nombreuses autres parties d'un animal.

Sur internet et dans les médias, vous trouverez de nombreux médecins, professionnels de la santé, diététiciens affirmant que les abats sont très sains pour vous, riches en vitamines et minéraux, bla bla bla bla... C'est en fait choquant de voir certains des plus grands noms fournissant des conseils en matière de santé et de nutrition parler de ces absurdités. Ils affirment que les abats sont sains car ils sont extrêmement riches en nutriments.

La vérité est que leurs conseils sont bien intentionnés car ils sont confus quant aux faits, mais tout aussi insensés. Oui, les abats sont riches en multivitamines, mais prendriez-vous une pilule pleine de toxines et de multivitamines ? Non, vous ne le feriez pas, car aucun apport nutritionnel ne peut compenser les problèmes générés plus tard. La goutte en étant un exemple. Je suppose que si l'on répète suffisamment un mensonge, il finit par devenir la vérité !

La toxicité des abats

Permettez-moi de vous poser une question : mangeriez-vous le contenu d'une serpillère ? Oui, la serpillère avec laquelle vous nettoyez votre sol ? Mangeriez-vous le filtre de votre voiture ? Le foie d'un animal est la serpillère et/ou le filtre de son corps. Les abats comme le foie et les reins sont pleins de toxines filtrées hors du flux sanguin. Ce que vous trouvez dans le foie, ce sont des produits chimiques toxiques tels que le mercure, le plomb, les PCB, l'arsenic, le chrome, le cadmium, le DDT, le sélénium et la liste est longue !!

Le rôle principal du foie est de retirer en toute sécurité les toxines ou de les stocker si l'élimination n'est pas possible. Manger du foie, par exemple, revient à manger toutes les toxines qu'un animal n'a pas pu expulser tout au long de sa vie, et vous savez combien de produits chimiques toxiques se trouvent dans les fermes de nos jours, comme les antibiotiques, les pesticides, les hormones, les aliments transformés et les ingrédients des vaccins ! Et peu importe si le foie est bio ou non, je ne vous recommande toujours pas de le manger car il contient toujours des toxines !

Ensuite, il y en a d'autres qui disent de manger les abats crus entiers avec le sang cru qui est une concentration et dangereux pour votre santé! Cela vous causera une infection parasitaire et/ou une infection de toxocariasis.Vous aimez manger des cerveaux? Saviez-vous que manger 5 onces de cervelle de porc vous fournira environ 2000 mg de mauvais cholestérol? De nos jours, il est considéré comme très à la mode et le "must" de manger du pâté ou du saucisson à base de foie dans des restaurants chics.

Si vous suivez le régime paléo, un régime alimentaire riche en consommation de viande qui inclut également les abats, veuillez l'arrêter immédiatement. C'est un régime alimentaire basé sur des graisses saturées et du cholestérol qui obstruent les artères et peuvent également endommager vos os et augmenter les niveaux d'acide urique dans votre sang. Rappelez-vous que les populations les plus longévives de la planète aujourd'hui (Okinawa, Japon/Ikaria, Grèce/Sardaigne, Italie pour n'en nommer que quelques-unes) vivent de régimes alimentaires pauvres en produits d'origine animale et composés principalement de glucides complexes riches en fruits, légumes et céréales complètes. Les régimes alimentaires pauvres en glucides et riches en protéines provoquent la destruction de la santé humaine.

Pour nous, les personnes souffrant de la goutte, nous savons tous que les abats sont l'un des plus grands coupables dans le développement de la maladie et manger des abats peut déclencher une crise de goutte. Non seulement ils sont riches en purines, mais lorsque le corps décompose les purines, il développe de l'acide urique comme sous-produit, qui s'accumule ensuite dans le sang et les reins ne peuvent pas facilement l'éliminer. Manger des abats provoquera la formation de cristaux d'urate autour des articulations, ce qui peut entraîner des symptômes de la goutte. Mon conseil : Évitez les abats comme la peste !

      Hello Spiro,

      Thank you for that article. Do you still have the references you used to write this article ? I can’t see them around the post but maybe I don’t find them…

      Thank you very much !

    • Gica

      Wow…this is really bad science. Please lookup how liver works. Liver is not a filter that holds all the bad stuff forever – it just separates it so it can be evacuated by the kidney. Sometimes not all toxins/metals are eliminated – some will be stored. The liver is not an independent entity in the animal body. If the liver has heavy metal residue so does lean meat (from the same animal).

      Organs are indeed an important component of a healthy diet. Read Kate Shanahan’s work. She is the doctor for LA lakers. Also why do you think the pack leader in the animal world eats the organs from the prey and leaves the meat for the weaker members?

      As for the cholesterol causative link to CVD…..Ancel Keys has been proven a fraud for a long time already.

      Fix the inflammation. Cholesterol will go down. Fighthing cholesterol is like pulling firefighters off the ladder. You don’t see them – means no fire?????

    • Vina

      God, this post is embarrassingly bad! Full of misinformation and just outright lies. The reason the Paleo movement and ketogenic diets have become popular is in light of new science. Your parroting the same thing they said back in the 1900’s; that saturated fats are “artery clogging”. You know, the same people who benefited from the “healthy substitutes,” “low-fat” movement that we have to thank for trans fats and highly inflammatory vegetable oils. We now know the science was fraudulent and deliberately deceptive. Humans have eaten meat since the beginning of time yet only in the past 100 years has chronic disease escalated to unprecedented numbers. People’s saturated fat intake has drastically reduced since the 1900’s yet disease continues to spiral. Please, please look into relevant up to date science! This “advice” is so harmful.

        Hi Vina!

        There are way more studies that prove that high fat diets lowers life expectancy than studies claiming that paleo and ketogenic diet are the way to go for living a long and healthy life.

        All you have to do is look at the blue zones where life expectancy is the highest and look at their diets and how it comprises mostly of complex carbohydrates “food as grown from the earth”! In areas of the world where you have high meat intake diets, the life expectancy drops dramatically. I can agree that the ketogenic diet can help certain people with epilepsy for example or other rare conditions but it is not a diet that the majority of people should follow.

        If gout sufferers follow that advice of eating more meat so they can improve their gout, we’d all be in serious trouble.

        • George Bours

          I’m not going to take sides here but there are over 3,000 peer-reviewed articles indexed on PubMed EVERY DAY. Your assertion of “There are way more studies that prove that high fat diets lowers life expectancy…” is, at best an unverifiable assertion you pulled out of thin air, at worst, an outright lie. Humans are incredibly adaptable creatures and have thrived in all kinds of environments. You can find long life expectancy in different environments, and picking variables at random (high vs low animals, high vs low fiber, high vs low carbohydrates) represents researcher (and blogger) bias more than anything else.

          • Spiro Koulouris

            Hi George!

            Forget the studies for one minute. Let’s use common sense instead. Look at the blue zones where pockets of population have the longest life expectancy and live disease free. Their diets consist mostly of complex carbohydrates (foods as grown from the earth). Very little protein in meat and fish and some good fats, mostly olive oil and some dairy along with nuts. I am fed up of all this confusion that the diet industry thrives on in order to stay relevant. It always needs to feed us new “supposed” scientific data that says this and that. Read my posts on the Tsimane tribes, 7th Day Adventists, Tom Brady etc… you’ll get a good sense of what I am talking about.

      Can you recommend foods to prevent gout but also will not affect my blood sugar as I’m diabetic?

      Does ostrich meat cause gout?

      Warm Regards

      • Spiro Koulouris

        Hi Eric!

        Any meat will worsen your gout cause meat raises uric acid in the blood.

        Check out my site, there is plenty of dietary information on what foods to eat.

      • Brian

        Hi Spiro!

        First thanks for maintaining a gout website. Any gout references are a good thing, however I think you may want to reevaluate some of your dietary advice.

        A ketogenic diet is not a high protein diet. I have been on uloric probably since it came out. I think around 2011? My uric acid level has always hovered around 7.5 on my high grain with added veggies, medium protein diet in the past. I decided to get serious about my health this summer and drop the grains and sugar from my diet, up my fats, keep protein moderate and go keto. Last week my uric acid level was checked and it was down to 6.6. I dropped about 30 lb (from 275 to about 244 zi am 6′) I think my protein intake had even increased a bit too from my previous diet…but still moderate! You may want to do some more research into keto…not high protein Atkins, but keto keeping protein moderate. I am very happy with my results and am thinking of trying to wean off of uloric if my results continue as they are.

      Every doctor I’ve ever met has warned me about organ meat. They all agree lean muscle meat is best at proper serving sizes. They include heart and tongue scince these are muscles and not filters. Also not to be eaten raw or med rare but well done with juices dripping away from the meat.

    • Erica

      Hi, Spiro – I thought you might be interested in this.

      Today the Consumerist blog had a story about beef heart meat now being allowed in ground beef.

      https://consumerist.com/2017/02/02/thanks-to-policy-change-your-ground-beef-may-include-more-heart-than-you-think/

      I know we’re supposed to be limiting beef, and eliminating organ meats such as heart. According to this news story, ground beef can now be up to 25% heart, without it even being mentioned on the food label–so gout sufferers have no way of telling whether it’s there or not.

      I went to the Dept. of Agriculture page referenced in the article, and clicked on Ask a Question to let them know that this policy could affect gout patients. Maybe some of your other readers will want to do the same.

      The idea that saturated fat clogs arteries is a myth. Also dietary cholesterol has little to no effect on your cholesterol levels. The same with purines. The level of uric acid in your body is 2/3 effected by YOUR BODY. How much purines you eat has little effect.

      • Spiro Koulouris

        Hi Roman!

        As for the cholesterol argument you make, the scientific evidence proves this argument, please stop reading and listening to these Paleo-fad types who are simply whitewashing the truth for their own personal gain. Studies I’ve posted on this website have proven that diet plays an important role in keeping uric acid levels healthy.

      I agree. We eat too much animal food sources. Fish and milk products I eat a lot. I also eat a little bit of shellfish,roe and eggs but I do not want too much cholesterol and also I do not want to promote gout too much. Traditional European overclass diet promotes gout, heart problems and a lot of other diseases.
