Just what is this matter we call cholesterol, anyway? Webster's
College Dictionary, 1995 edition, states: "a sterol, abundant in
animal fats, brain and nerve tissue, meat and eggs, that
functions in the body as a membrane constituent and as a
precursor of steroid hormones and bile acids: high levels in the
blood are associated with arteriosclerosis and gallstones."
That's a mouthful. But without cholesterol the body cannot make
the ###### hormones, adrenal hormones, and vitamin D. Excess
cholesterol is converted in the liver to bile acids, which are
normally eliminated in the feces.
Some experts feel high levels of cholesterol have very little
to do with dietary intake of it. There is a correlation between
blood cholesterol levels and the incidence of coronary artery
disease. One must, however, distinguish between the total blood
cholesterol level and the cholesterol portion in the blood
carried by HDL (high-density lipoprotein). Before you begin a
strict program to reduce cholesterol blood levels, check the
total cholesterol to HDL-cholesterol ratio first. This risk
ratio can be determined by a simple blood test by any medical
doctor
There does exist hope, however, when one has reason for concern
over their blood work. But remember--the body is a fantastic
mechanism and always moves itself toward health. To help it
along,
nike shox navina sale, it needs proper information.
This "information" that I speak of has to do with more than
adequate nutrition. In addition to eating more raw fruits and
vegetables, and drinking pure water, try to locate a sound
nutritional supplier. Years ago, Dr. Linus Pauling's work
demonstrated the value of Vitamin C in helping the body dislodge
and eliminate harmful arterial plaque. If you were to go to your
favorite health store or drug store for Vitamin C, you probably
would not receive the same benefits as Dr. Pauling did. Why is
that? (Pauling, Linus & Cameron, Ewan. "Cancer and Vitamin C."
Camino Books. Philadelphia, PA, 1993.)
Because nutrients must be in an appropriate electrical matrix
or else they are not functional to the human body. For instance,
nike shox clearance,
Vitamin C is sold worldwide but as a synthetic supplement,
usually in a chewable tablet. Unfortunately, isolated Vitamin C
is not in a proper electrical matrix making it as useless to the
human body as sawdust. Instead, Vitamin C must be combined in a
matrix form with trace minerals, bioflavonoids and electrolytes.
Only when introduced in this particular matrix or pattern can
the human body actually use the nutritional information present
in the Vitamin C.
Vitamin C has been known��for 40 or 50 years��to reduce
cholesterol levels. That is not news. The reason most of us have
high cholesterol��which means high plaque levels in the blood,
veins and arteries��is that the liver produces low density
cholesterol (LDL),
nike shox r4 shoes, then it sends it out to patch up arteries so
we don��t die of internal bleeding. That low density cholesterol
builds up over the years and becomes plaque. Eventually, it
clogs the arteries and we go into a condition of stroke.
When you start consuming vitamin C in the right electrical
pattern, you are supporting the body��s ability to build
collagen. As the collagen restructures arteries and veins,
plaque is released from the walls of the arteries. Cholesterol
levels go up at first. Then they go down. The plaque build-up on
your arteries goes down. Your liver stops producing LDL, because
you now have collagen to build tissue.
Augmenting your nutritional program with high-quality,
plant-based enzymes help the body grab stray protein profiles
(plaque), digest them in the bloodstream and deliver them to the
liver, which eliminates them from your body. All the tools are
here for a clean and well-fed body . . . which means this
condition may disappear, as it has in many cases. Please do not
be overwhelmed with all the technical jargon. Simply upgrade
your lifestyle and eating habits. Couple that with supplements
that mimic natural creation and you've got a winning
combination. And who knows, maybe you'll be the next to live
your own success story!
