Heart Disease and Heel Pain

You’d think painful Achilles tendons would have nothing at all to do with high cholesterol and heart disease.  I certainly never knew there was a connection.

So we’re wrong.  I had just finished reading an article online about cholesterol and the amazing benefits of oatmeal.  Michael (husband, father of my children and cats, and he-who-fixes-everything) has a bit of a cholesterol problem, so I was reading up on everything I need to force feed him! After I read all that he’s going to start seeing on his plate, I saw a Related Articles type of deal with “Pain in your heel?  See a Heart Doctor” as one of the titles.  Sounded pretty interesting - I had to read it (Mr. Cholesterol has bad arches!)

It’s an interesting, short, 1 page read.  Here’s the linkage>>>>> Pain in Your Heel?  See a Heart Doctor
Have a relaxing Sunday, and think up at least 1 HEALTHY habit to pick up this week.  Start walking every day for at least 15 minutes, give fast food fries the kiss off, start drinking juice three times a day, buy fruit every time you go to the store (then eat it before it rots!), fall in love with broccoli, start taking vitamins, do what your loving wife who reads all says to do.

The last one’s for all the Michaels in the world!
