Take care of your body and get benefits emotionally, mentally, and spiritually
Maybe you originally found me because you had an interest in my psychic counseling service or my psychic/spiritual development courses. Whatever the reason, here is the cold hard truth. Whatever steps you take to improve the relationship area of your life, develop your psychic/spiritual awareness, or any steps taken towards personal growth - if you do not take proper care of your psychical body, you are cutting yourself short.
Not only are you setting yourself up for a radically shorter life span, your everyday life is affected. If you have a poor diet or you aren’t giving your body the nutrients it requires, this will impact the other areas of your life - your emotional, mental, and spiritual health. For example, a poor diet can prevent you from thinking properly and will likely result in irrational emotional reactions. This isn’t good if you are trying to improve a relationship, your finances, or grow spiritually.
I’m not a doctor or nutritional expert, but for years I have researched what the top minds in the world have to say about living healthier. I stay away from junk science and I rely on sources that have not been “bought out” by biased supporters - good sources such as Berkeley University, Harvard University, and John Hopkins University.
Most other universities rely heavily on research funding from big corporations, such as pharmaceutical companies or big name food manufacturers. So you can bet their studies will support their backers rather than give you the purest truth. All of this “research” is conducted of course to help those types of companies promote/sell more of their product, not necessarily to benefit the health and well-being of the consumer.
I’ve discovered there is a lot of powerful knowledge that the “big boys” don’t want you to know about - the self-serving pill companies, big agricultural corporations, etc. I’m not against pharmaceuticals or the food industry, I just believe when there is a better way of staying healthy and healing sickness, people have a right to know about it. Sometimes taking a pill is necessary, but other times there are more effective approaches to healing.
I could spend days sharing the knowledge I have with you, but let’s start off just a few “commonly unknown” points and suggestions to consider:
Clean Your Colon & Keep It Clean
Studies have shown that the average adult American can have up to 25-30 pounds of impacted feces stuck in the colon, sometimes even more. I know it’s hard to believe and grotesque, but it’s important to understand this. For various reasons, the body doesn’t do a very good job of processing the average American diet. This stored waste in the colon has been linked to many diseases - cancer, heart conditions, migraines, chronic fatigue, and more.
Even if you are taking the best supplements, if there are layers or decaying meat and grease in your colon, you can only image how this will prevent your body from absorbing the nutrients it needs to be healthy. Consider getting a kit every six months or so to remove this compacted waste - the best product I’ve found is “Internal Sweep” by a company called Nature’s Medicine Laboratories. If a local supplier in your area doesn’t carry this brand, you may order by calling 1-800-408-1525. Then, for preventive measures, take a good daily dose of fiber such as “Konsyl.” You should be able to get this at most grocery or drug stores.
Most Vitamins Are Junk
It’s important to take a good selection of the major vitamins - A, E, C, etc. When you reach around 25 years old, your body slowly stops producing many of the nutrients it needs, even from a good diet. This is why it’s important to get on a good regimen of supplements. Instead of taking a multivitamin, consider getting the largest recommended dose by taking the supplements indiviutlaly. You can find out more about what vitamins to take in any of the better nutrition books.
But here’s the big secret - out of hundreds of vitamin companies, only about five are worth paying for. Look for brands that have the USP Seal on them. This means they are certified pharmaceutical grade - what they say they contain, they actually contain. Unless a supplement is USP certified, you are likely to get a bunch of fillers and other junk that won’t help you. Some of the brands that are USP certified are Now Vitamins, Country Life, Solaray, KAL, many of the Swanson Vitamins, and a couple more. Always check the label.
Eating Vegetables Is Not Enough
I recently saw a Yale University study which concluded the average American vegetable has 80% less nutrients than vegetables 20 years ago. Vegetables these day aren’t’ grown for nutritional quality, they are grown for cosmetic appeal and long shelf life. In fact, oftentimes when you purchase a tomato at your local grocery store, this tomato was picked 6 green months ago, stored in formaldehyde gas in a warehouse somewhere, and then pumped with oxygenated gas right before you get it (so it turns red).
Many studies prove that by the time the vegetables are on your plate, they are “nutrient dead.” So, try to get your veggies from local farmers at farmer’s markets if you can. Local is even better than organic according to Time Magazine.
Even with the freshest organic or locally grown vegetables, you still aren’t likely to get the nutrient you need. In this day and age, your best source of these nutrients comes from green supplements. Get a good supply of Spirulina and Chlorella (open cell). Consider the pill forms because the powered drinks are tough to drink. If you take a therapeutic dose of Chlorella every day, this is equivalent to eating 20-30 servings of vegetables per day. Your body will love this.
On top of this, green foods alkalize your body chemistry. So much research has shown that acidity in the body is what causes disease, more so than smoking, lack of exercise, or chemical toxicity. Speaking of toxicity, green foods are excellent detoxifiers. They take all of the preservatives, toxins from air pollution, etc and flush them out of your body.
I have much more to share, but these points should give you enough to consider for now. If you take the steps I’ve outlined here, you will feel better, have less illness in your life, and you will live a longer, happier life. I say this based on the research I’ve seen from the most credible sources of nutritional healing. But don’t take my word for it, do more research yourself. Get more involved in this part of your life.
