3.14 Remember, “You are what you eat”. Apart from genetic factors, you were born a healthy person. It is said that “all ailments enter through the mouth”, meaning your wrong and faulty diet is a big promoter of ailments. Reducing obesity and keeping it under control by following and observing the basic rules for good health will lead to a better lifestyle as well as longer fulfilling life health wise. Good health is more than the absence of disease. The concept of good health requires a balance of five components; physical health, social health, mental health, emotional health and spiritual health.
3.15 Basic Principle of Naturo-Food Therapy – It has been established without any doubt that good natural food makes good blood and bad junk food makes bad blood, which is the root cause of multiplicity of lifestyle diseases suffered by ever increasing numbers of human beings worldwide. The most simple and basic principle of Naturo-Food Therapy is to replace the bad diseased blood with new healthy blood by consuming natural health-giving nutritional and tasty foods as a result of which overall health improves. Foods in their natural form have immense immune-boosting and disease-preventing and curing properties.
3.16 The unique system of Naturo-Food Therapy based on the principles of Natural Diet consists of treatment with a Natural Vegetarian diet (mono-fruit to start with for a day or two) of fresh, seasonal and regional fruits/vegetables, green salads, simple home-made preparations from germinated wholegrains and cereals, nuts and seeds and carminative herbs and spices. These foods are not only tasteful, nutritious and easy to digest but also have medicinal and health-giving properties through making new purified blood. Thus, the nutrient/antioxidant/fibre-rich diets mop-up harmful free radicals (toxins) and boost the body’s immune system which:
(a) strengthens the body’s ability to overcome virtually all kinds of existing and undiagnosed diseases,
(b) increases the body’s resistance to infections, and
(c) as a bonus slows down and even reverses the ageing process through the consumption of nucleic acid contained in germinated grains/cereals and antioxidants in fruits, vegetables/salads and nuts/seeds
3.17 If we leave aside some of the causes considered important to the genesis of heart disease like family history (heredity), age and ethnicity, diet is certainly the number one factor which needs to be correct from a young age. The health of your heart has lot to do with the foods you eat and the lifestyle you lead.
