Indications for the procedure
Blood is the substance in which all the nutrients that enter the body along with food, water, and inhaled air accumulate.
However, over time, toxins and "harmful" cholesterol can also accumulate in the blood, which are not absorbed by the body, but for some reason are not excreted (for example, heavy metals are not filtered by the liver at all, and toxic sodium compounds are not excreted through the kidneys at elevated sugar levels).
This is most often accompanied by the following symptoms:
- Decreased performance;
- Decrease in overall tone;
- Deterioration of immunity to infectious diseases;
- Feeling constantly tired;
- Frequent headaches, tendency to migraines;
- Combined disorders of the gastrointestinal tract;
- A sharp set of fat mass;
- The appearance of noticeable vascular "stars" on the skin (especially in the leg area).
And it is the manifestation of these symptoms that is an indication for cleansing the body of cholesterol and accumulated toxins.
Ignoring these symptoms can lead to atherosclerosis.
Useful properties of 4 ingredients
How can we stimulate the elimination of toxins and the breakdown of the same cholesterol in the blood vessels? Even in official medicine, therapeutic (above average) doses of vitamins A, C and B-groups, minerals (mainly potassium and phosphorus groups), as well as phytoncides are used for this purpose. And it is precisely these components that are contained in the following ingredients.
1. Ginger
Ginger root reduces the level of cholesterol in the blood, which confirmed by research .
Also ginger is good for the heart and blood. Its root is also a powerful natural antimicrobial agent. That is why it can be stored in airtight plastic containers for any length of time.
The inclusion of ginger root in the daily diet will bring the following benefits for the cardiovascular system:
- Accelerates the breakdown of cholesterol. Is achieved due to the presence of biologically active components (organic acids) in the composition, which accelerate metabolism. The main thing is not to abuse sweets at the same time (high concentration of glucose in the blood slows down this process).
- Increases blood flow. This is an excellent prevention of varicose veins, as well as vascular thrombosis.
- Gets rid of thrombic masses. This effect is achieved due to the presence of the same phytoncides in the composition that contribute to blood thinning.
Along with this, ginger root indirectly slows down the course of inflammatory processes. Accordingly, its use is an excellent prevention of rheumatism and myocarditis.
2. Garlic
Garlic is very similar in its properties to ginger. But its composition also includes vitamins A, C, P, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, a combination of essential oils (it is thanks to them that garlic is excellent as a seasoning). According to research conducted by scientists from the USA, garlic significantly reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease . Its medicinal properties include:
- Stimulating the breakdown of cholesterol plaques. A large amount of vitamins A, C and P in garlic contributes to this.
- Detoxification. The combination of essential oils just stimulates the breakdown of many harmful toxins that accumulate in the blood and lymph.
- Normalizes the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract. Reducing the concentration of "harmful" bacteria can significantly reduce the amount of toxins that enter the blood from the intestine.
And regular consumption of garlic helps to normalize blood flow (by expanding the lumen of blood vessels). Only 5-10 grams per day will be enough to prevent heart failure.
3. Lemon
Lemon is one of the richest natural sources of vitamin C, which is necessary not only for immunity, but also for the normal breakdown of glucose. During the experiments, it was confirmed , which is combined with garlic, lemon effectively cleanses blood vessels.
In addition, this citrus brings the following benefits:
- Strengthens vascular walls. Due to the presence of a large amount of vitamin P in the composition, the risk of dilation of the vascular cavity and thinning of their walls is reduced. The probability of thrombosis or varicose veins decreases significantly.
- Accelerates metabolism and fat breakdown. Vitamin C contributes to this.
- Relieves the body of free radicals. Against this background, the risk of developing cancer, as well as vascular thrombosis, decreases.

Lemon is extremely useful for those who have been diagnosed with obesity (in which cholesterol actively accumulates in the blood). Its juice in combination with honey, consumed for breakfast, will help significantly speed up metabolism and dull the feeling of hunger.
4. Honey
The key property of honey is that it contains a whole set of rare trace elements that the human body needs. These include nitrogenous compounds, fluorine, zinc, and copper.
It is known that honey has a positive effect on the heart . And honey (especially in dark varieties) contains a large amount of iron (0.4 milligrams per 100 grams of product), which is necessary for the body to produce hemoglobin.
This is the effect it has on the body:
- Normalizes the biochemical composition of the blood. Copper, iron, zinc – all these elements are necessary for hematopoiesis. Doctors also recommend including honey in the diet if you are prone to anemia.
- Accelerates hemoglobin synthesis. Iron is used for this. Hemoglobin is necessary for the normal transport of oxygen to all organs.
- Prevents deficiency of tocopherol (vitamin E). It is necessary to prevent oxidation of blood cells.
And honey is also useful for the endocrine system, improves the functioning of the brain and liver. And, unlike regular sugar, it is easily absorbed by the body.
