- Holistic Medicine Secrets: Decrease Risk Of Heart Disease By Relaxing Your Arteries
By: Dr. Lisa Hosbein | - We want our arteries to be elastic and not stiff.

- Holistic Medicine Secrets: Heart Disease - Am I At Risk?
By: Dr. Lisa Hosbein | - A cholesterol check is not necessarily the best test for determining whether or not you are at risk for heart disease.
