French and Swiss do not eat what we do. Beef in France has been substandard in modern times (since the younger dryas) and their access to the sea is on three sides, so their emphasis is on sea food. (Bouillibasse or fish stew is a national dish). French consume lots of red wine, about 50 gallons per person per year. Alcohol, a way of life in Gaul since the Celtic invasion is one of the best cholesterol removers there is. Few doctors trumpet its praises because of the drawbacks to the kidney, liver and the brain. French are among the largest consumers of pro-biotic cheeses that are grass fed, and high in CLA, as well as the larges consumer of fruit in Europe. French eat some fruit at just about every meal. Sun us plentiful in france compared to inner Europe and England. Sun is a known d3 provider and cholesterol consumer. ustash.com Swiss eat beef, and dairy products. Their hard cheese is very probiotic and high in CLA, being grass fed predominantly. Mountainous territories seem favourable to people getting exercise on a regular basis. I have not researched the Swiss diet but it would appear to bear some study. Most breads eaten in europe are heavy multi grain vegetable breads. (Rotenbrot.). The don't eat white bread like we do ordinarily. CDNs suffer the least number of strokes of civilized people. It is attributed to the hard prairie wheat which is high in selenium. High selenium areas are low in stroke frequency generally. The diet to study is the "ancient" Cretan. High in walnuts, purslane, tuna fish, olive oil, it is 50% fat. But the fat is almost entirely olive oil, natural PUFA's from fish, and a little bit of goat cheese. They get lots of sun. Do their own fishing and rock gardening. Veggies are high in minerals. EC<:-}
