Basics of Nutrition
The only way to maintain health is to make sure nutrition is achieved on a cellular level.
Most people rely on drugs when they get sick.
Drugs can save our lives if we eat poorly but in the long run, they cause more disease because they all have adverse reactions and all antibiotics damage the liver.
The live is especially affected by drugs.
It becomes weaker and weaker with years and years of drug and antibiotic use that even a sudden minor infection or injury can cause severe illness or even death.
At least 60 percent of people have some sort of chronic disease.
Chronic disease is an ailment that lingers on and on, as opposed to an acute disease by which we are either killed by it or we kill it.
If we kill an acute disease, we usually end up stronger as we build up an immunity to that disease.
One of the first signs of chronic disease is fatigue.
Then, we start getting more colds, flus, infections, etc.
Finally, after a number of years, our bodies give up and we die.
The reason behind most chronic disease is years and years of nutritional abuse.
A well known cancer researcher at a famous cancer institute says: "Doctors can cure five percent of human disease.
Ninety-five percent of them we know nothing about.
" Jane Heimlich, author of What Your Doctor Won't Tell You (1990), says, "The average doctor is woefully ignorant of alternatives to drug treatments.
" Often our health problems begin without our doing...
in the womb.
Children with a poor nutritional base fall behind both physically, mentally and emotionally.
Most allergies that children experience are due to a lack of vitamins, minerals and proper digestion.
Basically, they eat too much white sugar, white flour and hardened fat (fat that does not melt at room temperature), which make up over 72% of the average North American diet.
These three food items, if we can call them that, not only lack the necessary nutrients children need for proper development, they also rob the body of the little nutrients they already may have.
Interestingly enough, death is the first symptom of poor health in 25% of the population.
They only symptom they've had is that they've never felt completely healthy, energetic and vibrant.
Perhaps they've never know how that feels.
To live a fully healthy life, we need to eat a primarily raw, natural food diet.
But we don't only have to eat these foods, we also need to be able to digest them properly, absorb them into our blood stream and the necessary cells.
Our bodies were designed to heal themselves.
We only have to give them the right tools.
Good nutrition is not something we try or start and stop.
It is a lifestyle.
Dr.
Tom Spies, one of the earliest nutritionists, said, "If we just knew enough, we could cure all our aliments with food.
" Hippocrates said, "Let's make food our medicine and medicine our food>" Our bodies tell us if we are deficient in a specific nutrient.
We have to learn what our bodies are telling us.
If we eat nutritionally, we will gradually heal ourselves.
