Good Morning Fr. Roel,
It's so good to read your entry here. Thank You for the Happy New Years text message, btw. During my drive around with my father, I had conveyed to him your fraternal regards. My dad was keen to knowing how you are doing and we both laughed at the stories I told him about how we met up in Bohol back in 2010. He told me to tell you, "Kummusta Roel! Mag kita ta pohon sa Bohol!" I told dad that maybe someday we all could meet up at my family residence in Tagbilaran (father's side). My family would like to meet you, btw. My Ante Beth, my Mammy Wella, Uncles Roger and Ray, as well as my aunts who do ask about you.
Back to the topic and notion of health -- my friend Albert and i were talking about the health benefits of certain vegetables. Albert is a Radiology/Oncologist resident. We were talking about the benefits of ampalaya, which actually has potent HMGCoa inhibitors, which has the same effects as the Cholesterol Lowering drugs called "Statins" eg. Atorvostatin, Simvastatin. There is a beautiful biochemical cycle that affects the chemistry of the body , the health of the body. The intake of green leafy veggies, and fiber helps in not only reducing cholesterol levels, but protecting GI health. Which in turn, affects the entire body.
May this year be prosperous , health-filled, and blessed for you, Fr. Roel. Hoping you're doing great !
Keep me in your prayers.
Sincerely Yours,
Bran Lorenz
