Nature Helps Doctor’s Spouse With High Cholesterol
We expected that Kevin would likely to get high cholesterol at some
time in his life. The majority of his family had bad cholesterol and his
diet just wasn’t what a healthy lifestyle should be. I’ve worked in the
alternative health field as a natural doctor for over 16 years when he
came home and told me our family doctor had put him on Lipitor. Neither
of us was excited about what drugs could do to your body.
In my alternative practice I’ve treated high cholesterol hundreds of
times successfully. I want to reveal some of the natural things you can
do to lower your cholesterol. First let’s talk about why you shouldn’t
take western drugs. Did you know prescription drugs used for cholesterol
cause problems like Rhabdomyolysis a muscle-destroying condition. The
possibility of kidney damage, muscle weakness and pain, memory loss,
decreased sexual interest, insomnia, diarrhea, gas, and the list goes
on. Now it was time to help a family member someone I loved. Many of my
clients find audio tapes to be excellent to help with
insomnia
For years clients have come to me for help with high cholesterol I knew
diet and exercise alone wouldn’t be enough.
While these are very important and often along with cholesterol problems
we need to lose weight there are few diet programs I pay attention to
because they lack the support you need while you are learning a new
lifestyle.
Alternative healers know which
herb binds to the bad cholesterol to usher gummy cholesterol substance
out of the body, what nutritional supplement washes away cholesterol
like artery detergent. Some natural doctors know the single best kept
Asian secret herb that holds exceptional cholesterol-lowering
properties.
A few years ago I stumbled upon a wonderful resource guide for
my clients that naturally helped them control their cholesterol without
drugs. Since today most my clients come to me through the internet I
often recommend the same information contained in this great book that
anyone can download onto their computer. Now for a few tips to get you
started.
A simple vitamin - Vitamin B3 also known as Niacin is useful in lowering
cholesterol by reducing LDL cholesterol by ten to twenty percent and
improving HDL cholesterol by fifteen to thirty percent and significantly
reducing lipoprotein A.
One herb that lowers cholesterol is artichoke leaf, which works by
limiting the making of cholesterol in the body. Artichokes are also
known to contain cynarin that increases bile production in the liver and
speeds the flow of bile from the gallbladder, which together amplify the
excretion of cholesterol. Orange juice and some salad dressings also
contain cynarin.
Garlic is considered the ultimate herb that lowers cholesterol with
amazing antioxidant properties. My favorite herb is Guggul comes from
India’s Ayurvedic medicine has been successful for over two thousand
years to control cholesterol through its active ingredient called
guggusterone that facilitates in improving the rate at which the liver
takes up and breaks down LDL cholesterol from the blood. As a meat
substitute soy products assists to reduce cholesterol. Eating 47 grams
of soy may help in reducing total cholesterol by up to nine percent and
LDL cholesterol by 13 percent. In closing in this informative article
let’s not forget hawthorn a herb rich in bioflavonoids helps stabilize
collagen and reduces blood cholesterol.
Now back to my husband, I gave him the book and as he read it he grasped
how easy the natural alternative to heart health and improving his
cholesterol really was. In just
60 days his bad cholesterol had
improved.
