AVACARD SEED TEA (A FEEL GOOD TEA)

Through my research I have found that there are so many teas that are as good for you as they are for you.  We have spent so many years ingesting pills for everything and learning that one problem leads to another, all because we are people who were made to consume plant based food.

Our ancesters were on the right tract, whenever they were sick they went out to look for natural herbs that would cure their ailments. For years I suffered from high cholesterol it seamed that no matter what I did the numbers were high. So I began researching things in nature that could help and I found that avocados were good to lower cholesterol  and blood pressure so I began to incorporate avocado into my diet. When I went for my routine doctor visit and took my blood test I was surprised to know that my blood pressure was normal and so was my cholesterol.  That has made a believer out of me and it's not that I eat lots of avacado I eat them about twice a week. Through further research infant that if I make a tea from the seed the results are phenomenal .  My hair, skin and nails are beautiful. My diabetes has improved, I no longer catch colds and I don't take flu shots.  I just can't say enough about the avocado.

In my blogs about teas, I am going to inform you about many other teas that are excellent for good health. I will also let you know how my cook book is coming along,  so check out my blog for updates.
