During economical shake-ups, author Cal Orey predicts her new mass market books that praise ancient remedies such as olive oil and vinegar (part of the heart healthy Mediterranean diet and lifestyle) will be the cheap ticket to good health and good spirits.
Orey, a health-nutrition journalist, believes vinegar and oil which contain polyphenols (disease-fighting antioxidants) may help lower the risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, and obesity — three major health woes that may increase during shaky times and financial turmoil. “But staying healthy on an unhealthy cash flow can ease costly medical bills — an important issue since ongoing news reports claim 47-million Americans do not have health insurance,” Orey said, adding that an economic tsunami is in the works.
