Essential Living FoodsWhat we put into our body is important to the generating of good quality body cells. Many ignore the facts that one should start to have good eating habits from young and not just good eating habits but the correct way of eating. Our diet should consist of low sugar, low acid and predominately live foods and quality oils such as olive oil, flax seed oil or primsrose oil. Studies showed that people with heart disease who followed the relatively high-fat Mediterranean diet lowered their risk of suffering a second heart attack by up to 70%. Mediterranean diet is rich in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, beans and fish.
Our diet should made up 70% mostly of water-rich foods such as vegetables and fruits. Just like the vulture who feast on carcasses of dead animals, don't they look awful with a bald head and devoid of feathers. Consuming sufficient water and water-rich food helps our body to cleanse itself. Failing to consume the percentage of water means we are clogging our body and not cleasing it. Food with high water content are iceberg lettuce, watermelon, broccoli, carrots, beets, oranges, apples, boiled potatoes, bananas, corn baked fish etc. You may also try juicing to purify your body, ridding it of potentially harmful build-up of toxins in our digestive system. Juices is a easy and delicious way to make sure we are getting our quota of fruit and vegetables each day as few of us would be eating five carrots but we could easily drink a 16-ounce glass of carrot juice. When taken with meal, the enzymes in fresh juice help us digest our foods.
Take care of your stomach for the first 50 years and it will take care of you for the next 50 yearsEach of our body organs has their respective functions and when these digestive functions are retarded or sometimes suspended by wrong food combination, the proper conversion of foods into vital body nutrients (such as amino acids, sugars, vitamins and minerals) does not take place. Under these circumstances, our systems are unable to properly absorb and assimilate the foods we take into our bodies. The great strain upon the cells and tissues of our bodies and our organs of elimination. If such unnatural conditions of improper food combinations continue over a long period of time, they bring about more serious diseases. Proper digestion is also retarded by the use of condiments such as vinegar, alcohol, tobacco, soft drinks, tea, coffee and iced drinks. Therefore, limit to those if you can't stop consuming it.
Using proper food combinations places a minimum effort on the digestive organs and they are not worn out prematurely. Foods are easily and properly assimilated and wastes are readily eliminated and thus we spend less energy breaking down the food and absorb more nutrients. Ever felt more tired or sleepy after a heavy meal....your digestive organs are working extra hard breaking down the food you ate and even so when you combine wrong food. So, please be nice to your digestive organ and understand the fundamentals of proper food combination.
Proper way to consume fruitsMany of us has the habit of eating fruits after a meal for digestion purpose. And fruits are also serve last after a meal at Chinese restaurant. Does it helps with digestion? Absolutely NOT and at the same time, we did not get the proper nutrients from the fruits. Some of us will be burping after eating fruits after a heavy meal. That's beacause fruit has to be eaten on a EMPTY stomach.
Fruit is the most perfect food as it takes the least amount of energy to digest and gives our body the most in return. The only food our brain can work on is glucose. Fruit is primarily frutose and most often 90% - 95% water. Why do we eat fruit on an empty stomach? Fruit is not primary digested in the stomach but in the small intestine. Fruit is designed to go right through the stomach in a few minutes and into the intestines where it releases its sugars. But if there is meat or potato or starch in the stomach, the fruit gets trapped and begins to ferment. That's the reason why some of us keeps burping after eating fruit for dessert after a big meal. Get the nutrients from fruit by eating on an empty stomach (before a meal) or juicing it with a juicer. Fruit contains bioflavinoids which keep the bood from thickening and plugging up the arteries and also strengthen the capillaries which protect us against heart disease. So start your morning with fruits to cleanse your body.
What do our body cells need to survive and thrive?Oxygen is the source of all energy in the body. Cells use oxygen to convert glucose into ATP. Nutrients - everything we put into our body must be assimilated or eliminated. Our body works overtime just to get rid of bad food we eat. Dr Otto Warburg, winner of 1931 Nobel Prize for his studies in cell respiration believed that there is a direct correlation between a person's health and the level of oxygen in his or her bloodstream. To test his theory, he put rat cells in bell jars with both normal and 60% below normal oxygen levels. In the jars with lower oxygen levels, some cells weakened or died, while other mutated. Another studies by Dr Harry Goldblatt support the hypothesis that a lack of oxygen destroys cells. He duplicated Dr Warburg's experiment, then reinserted the cells back in the rats. The rats who received oxygenated cells survived and those who received under-oxygenated cells developed cancer. Dr Alexis Carrel, a two-time Nobel Prize winner for his work at the Rockefeller Institution, achieved startling results with chicken cells he kept alive in petri dishes, demostrating his theory that "cells will live forever" if they are given their basic needs and if they are not poisoned by their own environment.
Therefore, proper breathing is vital to cells living. When our lower lung area fails to be adequately ventilated with air, we ended with under-oxygenated. Shallow "chest breathing" will lead to chronic or intermittent fatigue, chest pains, stomach upset, heartburn, anxiety, nightmares and night sweats. Learn to breath the proper way by using our diaphragm, the layer of muscle that separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity. When we breath properly, the diaphragm contracts and the abdomen protrudes, allowing the lungs to expand and fill with air. Take 10 power breathing 3 times a day to exercise your lung.
Happy Breathing!Cells regenerate about every 120 days. To support this, our DNA has a training system in place to make for smooth transitions to the new cells to perform their new functions. There are all sort of ports, storage and filtering systems for cells. It does make sense to to ensure we provide quality material (i.e. food, oxygen, water, nutrients) to make sure that our cells not only survive, but thrive!
What causes us to become ill?The accumulation of toxins in our bloodstream causes illness. When we take in more than we can eliminate and biochemical additives (substances which our body cannot use) causes poison to build up in our bloodstream.
A newborn baby smells pure and sweet. In contrast, the body of a sick and old person smells sour or even foul because of the toxic acid wastes accumulated in his or her tissues.
Advanced and long term body acidity leads to a variety of degenerative diseases, including osteoporosis, cancers, heart and circulatory disease, poor immunity resulting in fungal and bacterial infections, baldness, diabetes, arthritis, gout, kidney diseases and stones in the liver or gall bladder, chronic digestive problems, eye diseases, allergies and asthma, severe mental disturbances, multiple sclerosis and migraines. Which of these diseases eventually manifests depends on your lifestyle and body's constitution.
One of the body's first responses to lowered nerve energy and decreased functional efficiency is the elimination of waste from the system. Our body eliminates toxins via:
The build up of toxins in the body system is a result of unhealthy habits which is due to:
When a person develops an infection, we tend to focus our efforts on healing the infection rather than tracking the actual source of the infection. For example, someone with liver damage could be due to number of years of alcohol consumption, eating foods that are processed or high in fat or eating or drinking sugar, dairy products or coffee. The liver never has a chance to recuperate and is consequently unable to purify the blood, leaving the body to eliminate the poisons in some other way that manifests itself through infection.
Our body will do anything to get rid of the poison in our body such as fever, cough, vomit, perspire etc. The true source of disease is poisoning of the system which comes from many different places. Disease occurs when more tearing down than building up is taking place in our system. We should therefore deal directly with the source of the illness, then the cause of and the illness itself should dissapear, allowing us to lead a life of healthful vitality.
Wash the spinach, juice each ingredient then blend. Drink twice a day especially before bedtime for maximum impact. Juice each ingredient then blend together using a spoon. Great for the skin
