Importance of Proper Nutrition

 

The research is out there; the studies, findings, and evidence all show that we need to redefine how modern medicine goes about treating and curing disease. What you will also realize as you read on, is that the medical establishment is not actually interested in making you healthy and does everything in their power to keep it that way. The only person who is going to make you healthy is you.

Some of the findings published in the most reputable scientific journals, show that;

  • Dietary change can enable diabetic patients to go off their medication.
  • Heart disease can be reversed with diet alone.
  • Consuming store bought pasteurized dairy foods can increase the risk of prostate cancer and other types of cancer (raw dairy products on the other hand are very beneficial for health and can be consumed).
  • Kidney stones, diabetes, headaches, migraines, Lupus, and many other diseases can be reversed by diet alone.
  • Type 1 diabetes, one of the most devastating diseases that can fall upon a child is convincingly linked to infant feeding practices.

All these findings demonstrate that a proper diet is the most powerful weapon we have against disease and illness. An understanding of this scientific evidence is not just important to keep you healthy; it also has profound consequences for our entire society. We must understand why such a gross misunderstanding dominates our society, why we have been so greatly mistaken in our understanding of diet and disease, and what exactly we must do to promote health and treat disease.

We all know how sick our nation is, there is no need for me to tell you that. We all know that every single disease including cancer, heart disease, diabetes, infectious diseases, degenerative diseases etc, are all on the rise and that most people have a health problem that requires taking a prescription drug every week. We all know that depression is on the rise, psychotic disorders are on the rise, people are feeling unhappy, and the overall quality of life is decreasing.

I’m not going to bore you with numbers or complex figures. What I’m going to do is give you a much bigger picture, a totally different perspective on diet and nutrition which you probably have not heard before. I will give you principles, not confusing numbers. Guidelines which will give you a solid foundation with which you can customize your own diet to fit you own needs. It will be simple, but might not be easy!

The most important idea to understand is that there is really only ONE disease; the malfunction of our cells. A cell malfunction can be traced to two causes; deficiency and toxicity. By addressing these two causes through nutrition (and stress reduction) almost all disease can be cured and reversed. The most important aspect is nutrition. It all comes down to three things; breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I can remember when I was young, and how and what my family would eat. We never really gave much thought to which foods we were eating, which foods were best, or which foods should be avoided; we pretty much just ate what everyone else did. Nobody really told us what foods were good, we just ate what was available, what was tasty or convenient, or what our parents taught us to eat. Most of us live within strong cultural and societal boundaries which define the way we eat, our preferences and habits. It is not until only until some years ago that diet became a hot topic, and then all the confusion began!

Most people that I question have quite a few diet tips, advice, or guidelines. They think they know what to eat and strongly believe that they know what should be
