FUN HEALTH FACTOIDS

Today let’s “nourish” the second most important system in our bodies, the Cardio-Vascular System. Our heart beats an average 100,000 times/day and pumps approx. 2,000 gallons of blood through more than 60,000 miles of blood vessels!!! So, eat something from the fruit/veggie world with the color “RED”. They contain nutrients such as lycopene, ellagic acid, quercetin, and hesperidin, to name a few, which reduce the risk of prostate cancer, lower blood pressure, reduce tumor growth and LDL cholesterol levels, scavenge harmful free-radicals, and support joint tissue in arthritis cases. And while you’re at it….’take a walk’ !!!!
