Low Cholesterol Book

Dear Reader:

You hold the key to your own health and well-being. My own loss of health at the age of twenty-nine ignited my passion for wellness. While pursuing a career as an attorney in a large New York City law firm, I became seriously ill. It took one and half years for me to rebuild my health. I came to some important realizations during this painful time. I realized that without health and vitality, without close connection to family, friends, and community, and without passionate love for my work and for my life, my life held little value, regardless of how many material possessions I might own.

For those reasons, I chose to become a health educator and promoter, to dedicate my life to learning and teaching people about the power of wellness, and to do all I can to help others create health and joy.

Heart disease is a potent killer that touches many lives. The disease process consists of many factors and slowly robs you of healthy circulation and your cells of nourishing oxygen and life. Remarkably, many choices you make daily greatly affect your odds of preventing this disease.

I hope this book provides you with the information and motivation you need to realize how much you can do to create well-being for yourself and those you love. Feel free to contact me at my Web site ( www.shirleyarcher.com ). I'm always happy to hear from my readers.

Sincerely yours in health and wellness,
