All natural

When you're shopping for groceries, watch out for the phrase "all natural" as claimed on the front of various product packages. It turns out that the phrase "all natural" can mean just about anything; it actually has no nutritional meaning whatsoever and isn't truly regulated by the FDA.
The most common labeling scheme identified by researchers was the front-labeling of foods that are high in fat and sugar with glowing health claims. While partially true in some cases, phrases like "naturally-flavored" and "no artificialingredients" were found to be commonly used on breakfast products that are high in refined sugar and bad saturated fats. One cereal claiming to boost heart health and maintain a healthy body was found to have more sugar per serving than a doughnut. Another breakfast cereal bar claiming to be high in vitamins was found to have moresaturated fat and sugar than a piece of chocolate cake.

Natural Alternatives

To reduce the risk of breast cancer as well as live a longer, healthier life, every effort should be made by women to control their blood pressure and cholesterol levels through dietary, lifestyle and nutritional supplementation strategies.The results of these studies are a significant cause for concern and underline the importance of using effective natural, non-drug approaches to lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels in
women.Millions of prescriptions are filled yearly with the hope of reducing people's risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
But, looking at the results from detailed studies, the majority of people on statin drugs, especially women, are achieving no real benefit from these drugs.The reality is that statins are very expensive medicines, provide very limited benefit and carry with them considerable risks for side effects.
Keep in mind that cholesterol levels don't change overnight.Allicin is the active ingredient is garlic.

Fruit and Health


The body also naturally produces antioxidants, which fight free radicals and help prevent premature ageing and the onset of disease. These antioxidants neutralise the free radicals and stop them attacking our healthy cells. 
Fruit is also paced with dietary fibre, which helps to keep your digestion system running properly. Not only will this help expel waste products more efficiently, but it can also help prevent colon and bowel cancers as well, as there will be fewer toxins exposed to that area for less time.
Fruit is a great source of antioxidants. Eating them regularly will stop free radicals attacking and mutating our cells.
Because we are exposed to more and more free radicals every day, we need more antioxidants to neutralise them.


Below is a list of the health benefits of eating five portions of fruit or vegetables a day:
-Reduced risk of a stroke and other cardiovascular diseases
-Reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes
-Reduced risk of developing certain cancers, including mouth, stomach and colon or bowel cancers
-Reduced risk of developing coronary heart disease
-Reduced risk of developing kidney stones and osteoporosis.
