1 Tablespoon Opens Arteries…A Recipe for Longevity
Cardiovascular disease is on the rise. Obesity, diabetes, clogging of the arteries, high cholesterol, high triglycerides. This is a very serious problem. Poor diet is a major contributing factor. Obesity is out of control worldwide.
That visceral fat is causing so much damage, causing that metabolic syndrome to go out of control. I am going to show you today how you can mix one rooted vegetable with a citrus fruit, and this can make miracles within your body.
Garlic has many medicinal benefits. It contains amino acids, vitamins, trace minerals, flavonoids, enzymes and 200 additional compounds. Garlic’s main active ingredient is allicin, an antibacterial compound that’s produced when garlic is crushed or chopped.
Garlic helps balance out blood sugar, boosts the immune system, decreases bad cholesterol, increases nitric oxide, lowers blood pressure, lowers triglycerides, raises the good cholesterol, the hdls, and works as a natural blood thinner and is known to help conditions like atherosclerosis, heart disease, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels.
And lemons are high in vitamin C. They’re high in antioxidants that help protect cells from damage free radicals. The polyphenols in lemons can actually help support weight loss. It aids in your digestive system, it helps prevent the buildup of toxins as well as cleansing the liver and lymphatic system. And the citric acid in lemons also help prevent kidney stones.
And the polyphenol antioxidants in lemons also reduce chronic inflammation, which is linked to many diseases. And the randomized clinical study on the effects of garlic and lemon juice was done on lipid profile and cardiovascular risks.
That was posted in the International Journal of Preventative Medicine. And the study shows that there’s a significant decrease in total cholesterol as well as low density lipoprotein cholesterol, which is our bad cholesterol, as well as a reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
And in another PubMed study that shows the effects of garlic on atherosclerosis, which is clogging of our arteries, shows that garlic indirectly affects atherosclerosis by reduction of hyperlipidemia, reducing the fats, reducing hypertension and probably diabetes mellitus, as well as prevents thrombus or clotting formation.
And it also shows that this can not only prevent atherosclerosis or clogging of the arteries, but it shows regression where the body can increase the good cholesterol, the hdls to search for the bad cholesterol in the vessels, the ldls bring it back to the liver so it can be excreted from our bodies.
By reducing bad cholesterol and triglycerides, we’re reducing the amount of clogging or potential problems that can be fatal to the heart, called a heart attack, or the brain called a stroke. And the studies show that by mixing lemon juice and garlic however you like, this can help prevent those significant problems.
But when you crush your garlic, let it set out five to ten minutes. Allicin is formed through different enzymatic changes. If you eat it too soon, you’re not going to get those powerful medicinal healing properties.
So let it sit out five to ten minutes and just mix your garlic with lemon however you like in a tablespoon in your food. It doesn’t matter, but you need to start supplementing garlic and lemon and you potentially will see major changes in your health.
