The Power of Love/Hate

12 years ago cilantro, was in my opinion, as good as eating a bar of the soapiest soap. If you would have told me then that I would be able to pick this green beauty and eat it straight, I would have laughed at you. The love/hate for this amazing herb is met by many. Mind over matter brought me to a great tolerance and respect for yet another of one of Gods amazing medicines. As far as I am concerned it was created for this very period of time knowing humanity would eventually need a potent heavy metal chelator. I was recently tested for heavy metals by UPGRADED hair analysis and my years of eating and juicing cilantro brought me results worth the love /hate for cilantro. Love the benefits, here are some of them. #1 Rids the body of heavy metals. #2 Protects against oxidative stress (degenerative diseases, including cancer) #3 Reduces anxiety and stress #4 Controls blood sugar levels #5 Heart Health #6 Prevents urinary tract infections #7 Settles digestive upset #8 Protects against neurological inflammation as well as reducing blood pressure studies have shown that cilantro reduces the bodies cholesterol and triglyceride levels while its anti-oxidant ability is responsible for preventing oxidative damage linked to cardiac disease. Another study showed that the polyphenols in cilantro and its other heart health nutrients help protect against the free radicals linked to cardiac damage while they also could protect against myocardial infarction. Its nutritional value is worth mentioning. Cilantro has many important vitamins such as A, C, K and calcium, magnesium and folate. Cilantro wins as another natural medicine miracle essential. So even if you dont want to like this powerful herb, ya gotta love its benefits. Food is Medicine!
