What can we do to prevent this?

   The liver works to filter the blood. What happens when the livers filter becomes congested with an excessive amount of waste? The liver must perform some 500 different valuable functions to keep the body well. When the liver becomes congested with waste from undigested, unusable food residue, especially refined fats, it can cause an excess of cholesterol which than forms on the arterial walls. As this cholesterol thickens on the arterial wall, small pieces flake and join the circulating blood. When these small particles contact each other, they stick together forming larger masses that the liver has to filter. This cholesterol will, over time, fill the gallbladder and clog the liver. Your gallbladder is an emulsifier, it acts like a detergent, breaking down fats and oils by turning them into a liquid. Once you have cholesterol build up on the arterial walls, it will eventually turn into plaque material. In time, in the gallbladder itself, these cholesterol crystals form little green balls of cholesterol in the gall bladder. This will start causing a backing up of the same material into the liver, creating a fatty liver, which again reduces the livers filtering capabilities. When the liver cant keep up with filtering enough of the cholesterol crystals from the blood, the blood starts to get saturated with a heavier concentration of the cholesterol crystals which increases the levels that show up in blood serum cholesterol test. The way to remove waste material from the body and help support the liver is to begin with a Purification Program. That way youre starting with a clean slate and you can get the most benefit out of your healthy diet.
