Section III
From the Heart

Coleridge wrote, "What comes from the heart, goes to the heart."

No doubt he was referring to the flow of sentiment in poetry when he wrote those words. But their meaning may also hold a certain literal validity, as well, with respect to blood flow. For, the blood coming from the heart also goes to the heart - it feeds the coronary arteries, which supply the heart, itself, with blood. And these arteries are crucial. It is when these arteries becomes blocked that we have a so called heart attack.

This is why it is so important to keep the bad cholesterol at normal levels.
And why it is important, therefore, to maintain HGH levels in a healthy, youthful range.

Because statistically, when we do bring our HGH levels into this range, we tend to lower the levels of LDL or bad cholesterol in the blood.

Lower LDL levels mean less plaque buildup, and down the road, less chance of a heart attack.

Because heart attack is so sudden, and so often final, the benefits of HGH are perhaps most obvious in this area of application. Certainly its use in countering heart disease is one of the better reasons for maintaining youthful levels of HGH in the blood. Because when we have good HGH levels, good things come from the heart.
