Go Green and Lower Your Cholesterol Naturally.......
Our very own the late Wangari Mathaai, made it her life mission to defend and
protect nature. For good reason too; nature provides us with all we need to maintain
a healthy, vibrant lifestyle. From our sloppy mountains, down into the valleys,
our meandering rivers, rich exotic forests, lakes and oceans to the air we breathe.
All are natural healers. That said, in today’s modern society, toxins and
pollution are found in the food we eat, the water we drink and even the air we breathe.
Body
cleansing or detoxification is imperative to maintaining good health. While our
bodies have a miraculous and natural ability to expel toxins, years of
poor-eating habits, stress, low fiber- high sugar foods and sedentary
lifestyles have caused a backlog of pollutant build-up in our system. One of
the ways this build-up manifests itself is in our arteries as cholesterol; the
leading cause of heart disease. The efficient functioning of vital organs like the
colon, liver, and kidneys is impaired resulting in overall poor health and
death.
