HEART
GOAL: Encourage and maintain clear vessels for optimal flow
Cardiovascular System
The heart is the traffic control center of the body and the vessels are the highways and byways directing the flow of our blood cells. Our vessels our connected to every organ of the body feeding and nourishing are tissue with the foods we eat. Just like any road if you do not keep up with the clean-up and maintenance, they will eventually become unusable, causing re-route and wearing down of other routes (vessels). Now imagine you have multiple vessels (roads) blocked off, this can bring about a lack of nourishment and other major problems. What you eat is how we treat the skin internally.
