Nutrition and Health

“If you have your health, you have everything.” Don’t many people often say this? We would gladly exchange everything for our health. We pay doctors our entire savings to heal us, if necessary.

But not everyone who says, “If you have your health, you have everything”— only the old, the infirm or people whose health is at risk.

The laws of reality represent a real sequence of cause and effect; we live in effect of them. We must know them for such knowledge limits our freedom to guess but increases our freedom to act and think. Thus the law of gravity may mean that if from the top of a high cliff you see a man drowning, you may have to go down instead of jumping. Jumping represents a short-cut but it would destroy you and not help the drowning man.

The law of physical order follows the same sequence of cause and effect. Eating unhealthy foods produces unhealthy and fatal consequences. We are tempted to do short-cuts so we go to prayer healings or get somebody to pray over us when we get sick. It’s like jumping from a hilltop and expecting our Creator to catch us in mid-air or suspend the effect of gravity.

Our modern diet causes enormous problems for our health. But taking good care of ourselves is not just a health luxury. It’s an absolute necessity if we don’t want to be held hostage by pharmaceutical drugs, blood checkups and hospital stays. Not doing this only takes away more and more of our energies, our freedoms – even our lives.

The solution to our ailments is to get back into our natural state of vibrant health by “cleansing” ourselves from the inside, allowing our body to rest and heal itself. Think about it: For every disease, our immune system is triggered and it immediately starts fighting it. Our body can restore every wound, diseased organ or damaged cell that it needs to – but it cannot do that if we keep polluting it.

Most adults need 2,000 and 3,000 calories a day. Women and smaller less active people need fewer calories; men and larger, more active people need more calories. Wellness experts tell us that the distribution of calories should be: 40% to 50% from carbohydrates, 30% from fat and 20% from protein. We are strictly to avoid margarine, vegetable shortening and all products listing them as ingredients and all products made with partially hydrogenated oils of any kind.

Like most of us I simply cannot get the fruits and vegetables I want or figure out how to achieve a balanced diet of 33 nutrients. Instead, I take a good daily multivitamin-multimineral supplement for gaps in my diet.

You achieve good health through eating healthy food. There's no shortcut. There isn't a pill or an herb you can take to counteract an unhealthy diet. Don't roll the dice and gamble your life away. If you are under diet restriction, boost your immune system by taking a daily multivitamin-multimineral food supplement of 33 nutrients which requires little or no digestion. I survived a seven arterial heart bypass, failing kidneys, deteriorating prostate condition and falling weight by following a healthy and active lifestyle. I am a living proof that it works.

For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health which somebody sent via email. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suffer heart attacks than Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans

CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you. Lol!

Happy New Year!
