Cholesterol control by way of Chinese exercise
Excess cholesterol in the blood collects on the walls of certain blood vessels, decreasing their ability to provide proper blood flow to the tissues they feed. A heart attack occurs when the heart receives insufficient blood flow. High level of cholesterol also increases the risk of high blood pressure, stroke and circulation problems. As all medication, cholesterol-lowering drugs have a risk of side effects. Research indicates that exercise and diet are the most effective ways to control cholesterol and should be the initial focus of treatment. Western medicine focuses on anatomical findings and laboratory evidence of disease; traditional Chinese medicine is a form of energy medicine. In Chinese medicine, the accuracy of diagnosis depends on the practitioner's understanding and the patient's balance.
Perform Chinese exercise and lower your cholesterol in you, try for yourself and you will not regret for it.
