Avocados
The Forbidden Fruit
That Is No Longer Forbidden
The Avocados have Healing Power
This power can control cholesterol and lower your blood pressure
and prevent birth defects.
Avocados are great sources of folate and potassium. They also contain high amounts of fiber and
monounsaturated fat, both of which are good news for people who are concerned
with diabetes or heart health.
People with diabetes have traditionally been told to eat more
carbohydrates and cut back on fat.
Overall that’s good advice, but it’s not necessarily the best advice for
everyone.
Eating large amounts of carbohydrates surprisingly is not a good
thing for diabetics. This causes a rise
in the triglycerides and this will cause heart disease.
But on the other hand if they change some of
the fat that they do eat to Avocados you will be surprised when you see that
the dangerous fats in the blood stream are disappearing.
(If you are taking Coumadin to thin your blood then you should
consult your Doctor before eating too many avocados.)
For those of you who have high cholesterol problems then there is
help. Folks that have high cholesterol levels
will benefit from the oleic acid in the avocados. This can help lower the cholesterol levels dramatically.
They have done studies and they showed that the people who eat a
diet in high potassium-rich avocados have a lower risk of high blood pressure
and less heart attacks and lower risk of stroke. Your body needs that Potassium that you get in
the Avocado.
I have been eating an avocado a day and have noticed the change in
my body. I have noticed that my skin is changing as well. A known fact is that diabetics have dry skin. This is one of the symptoms of diabetes, but since I have been eating more avocados my skin is starting to feel like it use to when I was in my 20's.
I guess my Dr. was rather upset with my test results. She wanted to give me a prescription for a cholesterol
buster med that would lower my cholesterol by 30 to 40 points rather rapidly. But, when I went back after three months of
not taking the meds and of eating an avocado a day my cholesterol levels had
come down to a much safer level. The first
thing that she asked me is what was I eating, especially when she found out that I had not been taking the Meds.
There is another area that we haven’t covered about the avocado is
the prevention of birth defect. The
folate in the avocado is the nutrient that helps prevent life-threatening birth
defects of the brain and spine. One half
of an avocado contains 57% of the folate that is need to prevent these types of
defects.
(As I have told you
in past blogs that all of my research comes from the Doctors Book of Food
Remedies)
I will recommend this book to any one that is having a baby or are
overweight. I am still, but with this book I am getting better and losing more
weight. I only have 40 lbs to go and I
will be back down to the weight I was when all this mess started (145) If you would like more info on the Book Just Click Here
Now that I am getting this close to my goal I am going to have to step up the pace with the exercises and the Gazelle. I think that I will start doing the Gazelle every day for two weeks and see if that will start the weight to come off. Boy, I'll tell you when I was doing this before I found out that the last 10 pounds is the absolute hardest of all to get off. So, I am gearing up to get to that last 10 pounds.
As I have recommended before is the Gazelle by Tony Little. If you would like more info on the Gazelle please just click here and you will see the whole detailed info.
And as I mentioned before as well is the Pilates exercises that I do and you can get more info on the routines that I use by clicking here..
And as usual I still use the Cellulite exercises as often as I can work them in (ha ha) Click here to see more about the Cellulite solution.
And last but not least the Diet Solution. This has some great recipes in it and I love that program. Please click Here for more on the Diet Solution
I want to let you know why I did not post anything in May is because I was working on my new web site. If you would like to check it out just go to www.diet-exersize-USA.com
