made with simple sugars, overprocessed ingredients, or refined carbohydrates,
they won’t be immediately converted to glucose and shuttled into your
bloodstream. They’ll take time to transit through your body as it digests the
healthy fats, proteins, and complex carbohydrates in this meal.
It keeps your blood flow moving. Remember what happens when the Body
Breaker starts to funk up your arteries? Extra glucose causes nicks, which
encourage the buildup of LDL cholesterol and plaque. Two elements of the
Hearty Healer make it great for reducing damage in your arteries. One, the
avocado contains healthy fats, which promote HDL cholesterol (the good kind—
think H for Healthy). HDL sweeps away gooey cholesterol molecules. And two,
the meal doesn’t have lots of bad ingredients that can contribute to the buildup of
LDL cholesterol, like the loads of saturated fat found in the Body Breaker,
meaning that there’s less cleanup work for the healthy cholesterol to do.
