Re: Question About Cholesterol and Cleanses
My cholesterol numbers went down from 249 to 171 by changing my diet. They wanted to put me on Crestor (a cholesterol lowering drug), but I refused. With about 30 liver flushes I got out about 5 lbs of stones and goo. I am a big fan of MH and I have been taking the lecithin and more plant fats now that I know their power to cure.
A low fat diet was one of the causes for my liver getting clogged up, along with menopause hormones prescribed by my doctor. Even after my first gallbladder attack in 2003, my doctor wanted me to keep taking estrogen. I got a new doctor (Dr. Webster in Greensboro NC) who only recommends natural hormone replacement therapy. This is a whole subject on it’s own.
Getting back to the cholesterol issue, I believe that MH is totally on the right track. The typical American diet is bad for us. The body needs plant fats, which help clean the liver. If your liver is working well everything else in your body starts to improve. For example, since I have incorporated a more MH lifestyle of eating, my skin is clearer, my hair and nails thicker and I have more energy. So far I have lost about 15 pounds. (I need to lose more.)
