Broccoli May Reverse Diabetes Damage

President George H. W. Bush famously said that he didn’t like broccoli, and since he was president, he didn’t have to eat it. But if the former president is ever diagnosed with diabetes, he may allow broccoli on his plate after all. New research from the University of Warwick in England found that eating broccoli could reverse the vascular damage to blood vessels caused by diabetes.

The scientists believe the chemical in broccoli responsible for the heart-healthy effect is sulforaphane, which promotes the creating of enzymes that protect blood vessels, and reduces the amounts of molecules called Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) that cause cell damage.

Crucifer vegetables such as broccoli, brussels sprouts and cabbage, have been tied to a lower risk of strokes and heart attacks. People with diabetes face up to a 500 percent increase in risk of developing cardiovascular diseases that are linked to damaged blood vessels. They also risk other health problems such as kidney disease.

High blood sugar levels can cause levels of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) to increase three-fold. But sulforaphane activates a protein called nrf2 which protects the vessels and lowers the increase of ROS by 73 percent.

Our study suggests that compounds such as sulforaphane from broccoli may help counter processes linked to the development of vascular disease in diabetes, said Warwick Professor Paul Thornalley. He added that in the future it will be important to see if eating a diet rich in broccoli and other crucifer vegetables will benefit diabetics. We believe it will, he said.

According to Newsmax medical editor Dr. Russell Blaylock, 5.2 million Americans suffer from full-blown diabetes - and don't know it... yet. That's scary!

As a member of ASH (Advanced Scientific Health) I receive important health messages periodically and of course on Saturdays we have the 1:00 PM (Eastern) Conference/Education call. Sharing information is part of the program. Marketing is also a part of the ASH Program. I find it easy to share health information, but marketing...I just can't get very comfortable with it. As a matter of fact, I don't know which part of marketing I hate the most. Cold calling, rejection, the rudeness of others...the whole thing is just bad. Then I was invited to attend a presentation. That day changed my entire concept of marketing...

I don't buy leads. I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my down line with out any effort on my part. And the 10% of my down line that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-man we are happy buying customers not leads! It's Good Business.

Presentations are held every Saturday at 1:00PM and every Wednesday at 7:00PM Pacific time. You can register to attend at:Its Good Business You owe it to yourself to attend. There's no selling, just good common business sense.

It's Good Business
