There are a host of illnesses that eating the right foods can prevent…among them being high cholesterol, high blood pressure, type II diabetes, and certain types of cancer.
Studies have also shown that certain foods can also help cure disease as well. These studies have shown that eating the proper foods can bring down high cholesterol levels and high blood pressure.
