Heart disease and Diabetes are diseases of inflammation, that often begin far before cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar instability. Find your TRUE risk for these diseases. Our clinic provides screening for many Cardiovascular Health concerns: Ginger, garlic, onions, turmeric, drinking green tea, all of which have anti-inflammatory effects. If you drink alcohol, stick to red wine. Excessive alcohol consumption is a cancer risk, men who drink alcohol should limit themselves to a maximum of two drinks daily and women to a maximum of one. For women at risk for breast cancer, one drink a week is safest.
