Fiber And YOUR Heart

Fiber.

That plant substance we might want to eat volumes of in order to keep regular.

25 grams daily volume of.

Fiber helps us to naturally remove toxins.  It also binds with cholesterol-rich bile acids, preventing them from being absorbed into the body

The typical American diet just doesn’t “get” fiber.

I remember when I was first introduced to the concept of eating raw foods.

When someone recommended to me the ideal volume of raw one might strive to eat daily…

I was stunned.

Are you ready?

Have you had your FOUR cups of raw vegetables today?

MOST folks don’t eat this way.

Eating raw foods is one fiber source.

Fiber supplementation can also be of value

If you have diverticulosis, high cholesterol, stomach problems, are overweight, irregular, bloated, have poor complexion, colon cancer, hemmorrhoids, colitis, chronic constipation or hunger pangs you  may benefit from supplementing fiber

Not all fiber supplements are equal.  Our fiber contains the most soluable fiber on the market.  Having both soluble and insoluable fiber is important.  Our fiber was also clinically tested at Stanford University of Medicine.

Benefits of Fiber include:

reduces the risk of some kinds of cancer
helps control blood cholesterol levels
reduces the risk of heart disease
helps maintain stable blood sugar levels
promotes regularity essential for colon health
helps remove toxins from the body

Tests prove our fiber lowers total cholesterol by 33 points in just four weeks! Clinically tested at Stanford University School of Medicine.

The Worst And The Best Kiss

I think that the kiss is an ultimate expression of love. Even to this day a kiss can make my heart flutter. I will openly admit that I adore kissing.

Have you ever had a special kissing moment?

My very worst kiss was when I was a young adult. I worked in a tuxedo shop and ironed a zillion of those cotton ruffle shirts. This guy would wave to me as he got off the train. I’d wave back. This went on for some time. One day he came into the store and we talked. He was very cute. We exchanged quite the banter, he made me laugh and we found we actually had a lot in common. He started visiting daily and each day as he left he’d say – see you tomorrow! I found it all wonderfully distracting. Finally, he asked me out. The date was an absolute blast.

There of course was that inevitable moment when I knew he would kiss me.

(I can’t tell you the chuckle this memory STILL brings to my mind)

Instead of puckering up and kissing my lips he opened his mouth really wide and kissed my entire face. The only way I can explain it is that he surrounded my nose, my chin, and my mouth with his completely open wide hello are you in there mouth and called that a kiss. I tried to coax him into a bit of a pucker but this dude was utterly determined to give face instead.

This last year I dated.   A kiss from one of these dates is my NEW best kiss.

It was in a parking lot after a very long and wonderful lunch date.  He asked politely if he could kiss me.  I liked that he asked. It was a very breezy day. The sun was setting.  It was unseasonably warm.  I of course said yes.  What I remember most about this particular kiss was that it was very gentle and sweet.  His hands, however were very wanting and strong.  He placed them on either side of my rib cage and firmly pulled me very close to him.  He moaned and said, I don’t want to let go.  That kiss sure took my breath away.
