Natural Health

 

This information is not intended to treat but to guide you and give you useful information if you are trying to improve your health. Do you have a health goal? If you do not have a health goal, then you are just trying to do whatever you can and grasping at all types of information out there about your health and there are a lot of useful information out there and also not so useful. I have a health goal – mine is to be vibrant, full of energy as I age. I know we are all going to grow old, but why must we grow old with disease and crippled like a lot of people out there. When I look in the mirror in the morning, I tell myself that I must look better tomorrow than I looked today and I say that every day and I will keep saying that until my body tells me that I cannot improve on the present.

 

The body is an incredible machine but what is different about the human body that a lot of people do not know is that you can have a new body anytime you want and that ladies and gentlemen is why you should never believe anyone that tells you or make you feel that you cannot improve on what you presently have or that you cannot get rid of disease and get of some of those poisonous drugs that you may be taking for some manmade disease. The cells in our body are constantly dying and replacing themselves throughout your whole life. Let us start with what gets replaced the fastest. The surface layer of the mucosa lining the GI tract, for example, your intestines gets replaced every 3 – 5 days. Taste buds are every ten days (yes. you can get rid of that ‘sweet tooth’). Your skin layer known as the dermis sheds about every 21 to 28 days. Red blood cells die and get replaced every 90 days. A whole new liver is synthesized every 5 months (even alcoholics are given a new chance). Yes, it is true – a whole new heart is generated about every 9 months. Bone cells takes about 7 – 10 years to die and new bone cells regenerated. Imagine if really understood this concept, what you can do to fix your medical problems or is you have none, you could just defy the aging process. This is how it works – if you know that this is going on within your body, then why would you not want to feed these cells the right stuff, so that the new cells will be healthier instead of letting them bath in toxins and making them weaker and more diseased than the previous. If you cut yourself, most of the time, you do not have to do anything to the wound because the body will heal itself. This incredible power goes on throughout the body in almost every cell except cartilage. When you provide the boy with the right nutrients and remove toxins on a daily basis, it will not fail you.

 

Most doctors are not trained in preventive health and they are not nutritionists or weight loss expert. They are trained to interfere when there is a crisis, then they diagnose and treat with drugs or surgery. Traditional medicine does have its place but we are over medicated in this country. The #4 killer in this country is over prescribed medications. I will like to help start educating you on how can prevent disease and start feeling vibrant and full of energy and look and feel great.

 

“The doctor of the future will give little medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.”

_ Thomas A. Edison So, what are the basic principles of natural health?

 

Balancing your pH
feeding and nourishing the body and removing toxins from the body.

 

So, what is pH? It is an abbreviation for the power of hydrogen. An environment is more acidic if there are more positively-charged hydrogen ions present and when fewer hydrogen ions are present, less acidic. The more acidic you are, the more susceptible you are to disease and the more alkaline, the body move toward healing itself. how long you live and your state of wellbeing does not depend on pharmaceutical drugs but on what you are providing your body with and how well you rid your body of toxins.

 

Most people can relate to this – if you have a house plant, what happens if you do not water it and give it plan food periodically? It will die, right? Not everyone can grow a garden either. When you dig up the soil, if you do not put in nutrients and fertilizer and water the garden as needed, the plants will be weak and become susceptible to fungus and disease. The same principle applies to the human body.

 

If you do not provide the body with the right nutrients and remove toxins from the body systems consistently, the body will become susceptible to fungus and disease. And, guess what – the skin is the largest eliminating organ in the body and if one does not eliminate toxins from the body on a consistent basis, then the body systems get overwhelmed and the skin will do it for you. Hence, the skin conditions – skin fungus, moles, nail fungus, psoriasis, eczema, rashes and many more. Have you ever thought about why these conditions arise?
