“PATHWAYS TO HEALTH FREEDOM”
CERTAINLY, it is a fact, preventative measures are tantamount to good health maintenance. The question becomes, are you willing to pop thyroid meds three times a day like clockwork for life- to strengthen your health and ward off complications? Perhaps entertaining the thought of natural health maintenance comes to mind. Imagine. Being able to grow the plants you need – prepare extracts- and maintain your “levels” INDEPENDENT of your insurance status or dependence on pharmaceuticals? This should be renamed “Pathways to Health Freedom”
OPTIONS. Life, to me, is all about OPTIONS, recognizing them, and doing what needs to be done.
SO….
It seems the best thing to do is tackle one HERB at a time, as there is so much information out there.
A good place to start would be TURMERIC. CURCUMIN is the sought after PHYTOCHEMICAL.
TURMERIC / CURCUMIN
Anti-inflammatory. So effective, there has been a ton of study on its effectiveness in so many health issues!
One thing to know, most “disease” arises from INFLAMMATION. INFLAMMATION can be initiated through many pathways, and affect many body systems. This fact makes TURMERIC (Curcumin) a natural anti-inflammatory capable of increasing viability of ALL systems- Circulatory, Nervous, Skeletal, Muscular, Digestive, Endocrine AND Respiratory.
Turmeric is truly a multi use herb.
CURCUMIN AND CIRCULATORY SYSTEM:
Simply put, CURCUMIN acts on the inflamed veins and arteries in the circulatory system, as well as heart tissue itself. “Curcumin protects against cell death following heart attacks or other cardiovascular events.”
Looking at the circulatory system and it's structure- you can see how inflammation of this system can be taxing on all bodily systems. Reducing inflammation here is a great place to start taking control of your health. BE INDEPENDENTLY HEALTHY!!

When veins and arteries become inflamed due to (exposure to foreign substances or hormone related immune responses) or any reason, tiny scratches develop on the inside if the structure- allowing stray cholesterol, blood cells, whatever- accumulate on the sides, potentially causing the blockage people are prescribed MEDICINES to dissolve.
Perhaps PREVENTION by reducing inflammation would be helpful in preventing accumulation of any cast off debris to get stuck along the edges.
This type of inflammation would occur in all body systems linked to the circulatory system.. which includes EVERYTHING. Pretty amazing, you can protect yourself from DISEASE by consuming phytochemicals- naturally occurring PLANTS.
