Beauty begins within and so does good health. Start with your A (Apples), B (Beets)
and Cs (Carrots) to help lower your cholesterol and so much more.

Apple
Eating apples every day can help lower your cholesterol. It’s the pectin in the
apple that lowers the LDL or bad cholesterol. People who eat two apples
per day may lower their cholesterol by as much as 16 percent. High levels
of flavonoids, quercetin and naringin in apples are believed to help lower the
risk of lung cancer. In addition to lowering cholesterol, apples contain a
double fiber combination that can reduce the risk of hardening of the
arteries, heart attack and stroke.

Beets
One-third cup of beets every day can lower
your cholesterol by 40 percent. One-half cup
of cooked beets is a mere 37 calories.
They’re naturally sweet, but have only 7 grams
of sugar per half-cup serving. Beets are a
good source of vitamin C, potassium and iron.
Beets give you the cancer-fighting antioxidant
beta-carotene plus 2 grams of healthy fiber.

Carrots
Carrots are an excellent source of antioxidant agents.
As a result, they can help protect against cancer and
cardiovascular disease. Carrots can also help reduce
cholesterol and are rich in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin
K and potassium. Improved skin and good vision
are benefits of carrots, too.
