Your body isn’t simply a vehicle for transporting your head from place to place. While it DOES perform this function, there’s actually quite a bit more important things it’s good for, as you already know. But when you don’t feed your body the right foods, it’s revolting — in more ways than one!

How does your body revolt? With symptoms and diseases. Modern medicine says drugs and surgeries are the answers, but we in natural health care say this still doesn’t provide the nutrients your cells are starving for. If you had the right nutrients, the drugs and surgeries would be unwarranted. While it’s commonly thought that being sick is a terrible thing, when you really take notice you’ll realize that this is how your body tells you that it needs nutrients. It often means you are STARVING for nutrients, even if you are way overweight! How is this possible?

Your body needs nutrients for eating, sleeping, resting, laughing, crying, driving, running, thinking, drinking, tinkering, making waste and snickering. You need nutrients for losing weight, gaining weight, talking to your accountant, riding your bike, screaming at your kids and for having sex. So where do YOUR nutrients come from? Your diet?Really?

The average diet in the western world lacks enough nutrients to fuel a body and keep it healthy and vibrant. That’s sad, because the average westerner has access to food, when you compare their situation with inhabitants of third world nations. So what’s gone haywire?

People are eating  KINDS of foods that are breaking down their cells. I call these DESTRUCTIVE FOODS. As a result, their bodies revolt with flu, colds, sores, allergies, headaches, cancer, stiff joints, bad teeth, camel breath, depression, asthma and poor vision. The answer? Fill your diet with more fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. Take a healthy dose of whole food supplements before you start your day! These are the only foods that contain life-supporting nutrients. All the other stuff — commercial breakfast cereals, cookies, pasta, potato chips, canned peas, margarine, fried chicken and Coke — break down your cells faster than you may realize. There’s really no secret here. It’s just a matter of giving your cells some real foods to work with.
