A few months ago, I had my blood tested. Results
showed that I was a bit high in
cholesterol, which made me realize that it's time for
me to change my daily eating
habits. Many of us are aware that continued intake of
cholesterol-LDL to be
specific-results in accumulation of fats and sticky
blood in the blood vessel,
which eventually inhibit smooth circulation of blood.
This can cause high blood
pressure and myocardial infarction. Basic treatments
in curing circulatory disease
such as heart disease are to inhibit overindulgence of
cholesterol and
instead take healthy food that makes your blood clean
and clear.
Following is the list of food that will help you
maintain clean blood.
• Grains such as brown rice, beans, mung beans and
black rice are known to be
abundant in essential amino acids, essential fatty
acids, fiber and minerals that
help excrete bodily wastes and clean the blood. Mung
beans in particular can help
remove toxins in the blood, which have been
accumulated by food, medicine or
heavy metal.
• Similarly, marine plants (algae) such as sea
mustard, kelp, or seaweed is good for
blood-clearing in that the iodine and minerals
contained in marine plants help
remove the toxins accumulated in the body and clean
the blood.
• Vegetables, most if not all, are good for our health
but there are some vegetables
that are specifically good for our blood cleansing. To
name a few, those are
onions, cucumbers, carrots, water parsley, garlic,
ginger, pepper, a crown
daisy and eggplants. For those of you who are meat-lovers,
remember to take
meat with onions for it has the ability to control
blood clotting. Mushrooms also
help prevent blood from clotting. Being the
best-representing cancer-fighting
food, mushroom is good for strengthening of our
immunity.
• Fish also contains abundant proteins of good quality
that clear the blood. It is
recommended to take fish such as hairtail (cutlassfish),
halibut (flatfish), tuna, red
sea-beam and seabass. However, blue-backed fish such
as salmon, mackerel,
sardine contains lots of fats, so you should take only
an appropriate amount.
As briefly mentioned above, to prevent circulatory
disease such as heart disease,
one should not only inhibit the indulgence of
cholesterol but also limit the
uptake of chlorine. Since use of diuretic can decrease
the amount of potassium in
the body, consuming mineral-rich water such as BIOCERA
Antioxidant Alkaline
water is necessary for supplementary purposes.
