Abstract
The in vitro and in vivo antioxidant activities of different extracts of laurel leaves were studied. Free radical scavenging capacity (RSC) was evaluated measuring the scavenging activity on the DPPH, NO, O(2)(.-) and OH radicals. The effects on lipid peroxidation (LP) were also evaluated. Experimental results indicate that ethyl acetate extract of leaves has exhibited the largest RSC capacity in neutralization[U1] of DPPH, NO, O(2)(.-) and OH radicals. The same result was obtained in investigation of extracts impact on LP. The in vivo effects were evaluated on some antioxidant systems (activities of GSHPx, LPx, Px, CAT and XOD, and GSH content) in the mice liver and blood-hemolysate after treatment with the examined laurel extracts, or in combination with carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)). On the basis of the results obtained it can be concluded that the examined extracts exhibited a certain protective effect, which is more pronounced on the liver than on blood-hemolysate parameters. The results obtained indicate toxicity of CCl(4), probably due to the radicals involved in its metabolism. Combined treatments with CCl(4) and the examined extracts showed both positive and negative synergism. Based on the experimental results, the strongest protective effect was shown by the EtOAc extract.– PMID: 20657487 [PubMed – indexed for MEDLINE]

Cabbage helps to lower total serum Cholesterol levels.
Carrots lower serum Cholesterol levels: research
Consumption of 200 grams of raw Carrots lowers total serum Cholesterol levels by an average of 11%.
Celery can lower total serum Cholesterol by 7%, even at low doses (due to the 3-n-Butyl-Phthalide content of Celery).
Garlic (and Garlic Oil) lowers total serum Cholesterol levels: research
Aged Garlic Extract lowers total serum Cholesterol levels (by approximately 7%).

Rosemary—Sage –Thyme-Bay Leaf as well work with cholesterol as to not to allow it to break down and periodize ( get broken and become sticky causing arterial stress )
AS you can see The need for Cholesterol Is A NECESSITY—and should be treated as such –as you can see based on the research without it cancer increases

Effect of resveratrol and quercetin in experimental infection by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium.
Int Immunopharmacol. 2010 Nov 17;—Authors: Paolillo R, Romano Carratelli C, Rizzo A
Flavonoids are phenolic compounds widely distributed in almost every plant and act as pharmacologically active constituents in many herbal medicines. They have multiple biological, pharmacological, and medicinal properties including anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective effects. In the present study, the experiments were performed to evaluate the effect of resveratrol and quercetin on proliferation, viability, nitric oxide (NO) production, and apoptosis in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium-infected U937cells and monocytes (MN). The results showed in a time- and dose-dependent manner that both resveratrol and quercetin reduced S. enterica serovar Typhimurium-induced NO production. In addition, the vegetable extracts resveratrol and quercetin inhibited cell viability and proliferation in S. enterica serovar Typhimurium-infected cells. S. enterica serovar Typhimurium-induced apoptosis was also blocked by resveratrol and quercetin. The results obtained indicate that flavonoids modulate the host response during salmonellosis by protecting the host cells from the toxic effects of bacterial infection and also by decreasing programmed cell death. Hence, these polyphenols can be considered potential candidates against S. enterica serovar Typhimurium-related gastric pathogenic processes, and further attention should be given to their application as a treatment for infectious diseases.—PMID: 21093605 [PubMed – as supplied by publisher]
Recipe for Garlic and Wine: take red wine and garlic or onion or apples—1-1 ½ cup of red wine—one whole onion ( red due to the polyphenol content-and slight resveratrol levels as well it has Quercitin) or 2 apples peeled unless grown without chemical spraying then apply the skin as well—or you can go 1 apple and ½ an onion- use any of these combinations and make a blended mix by applying the combination of choice to the blender and blend high speed for 5 minutes ) you can either strain the components and have the fibre as a desert—or pour the content in the bottle after you strain—either way—
( 2) Go to the health Food store and Buy Straight resveratrol and quercitin supplements and use daily 1-2 a day of each or increase the uptake if there is a gastro issue starting-then apply this with an enzyme 1 dose 5-6 times a day
( 3 )Take a good Garlic and A Red wine and ferment the 2 together for 6 weeks to increase the potency of the garlic and wine –this should increase Nitric oxide levels in the body as well sa the other antioxidants and enzymes—do 1 tablesoon dose 3 times a day Or as needed or tolerated
