-------ARTICLE START--------
With the increase of obesity on the rise with our children, 1 out of 3
adults being overweight, overcrowded hospitals and dreaded diseases
increasing by the day, it may be time to revise one factor to improving
and restoring our health. The factor is diet and the choice is the
Mucus-free one.
Most practitioners of drug-free healing believe that MOST diseases
regardless of their Medical Diagnosis are a result of one thing:
Improper Diet.
This theory brings to mind two straightforward quotes: "You are what
you eat"
And "Let Your Foods Be your Medicine and you medicines your food"
Now friends, balanced body chemistry is of utmost importance for the
maintenance of health and correction of disease. Acidosis, or
over-acidity in the body tissues, is one of the basic causes of many
diseases, and is of course introduced into the body via one way,
eating.
All foods are "burned" in the body--more commonly called "digested"--
leaving an ash as the result of the "burning", or the digestion. This
food ash can be neutral, acid or alkaline, depending largely on the
mineral composition of the foods.
Some foods leave an acid residue or ash, some alkaline. The acid ash
(acidosis) results when there is a depletion of the alkali reserve or
the diminution in the reserve supply of fixed bases in the blood and
the tissues of the body.
It is, therefore, vitally important that there is a proper ratio
between acid and alkaline foods in the diet.
For optimum health and maximum resistance to disease, it is imperative
that your diet is slightly over-alkaline. The ideal ratio, according to
the world's foremost authority on the relationship between the
acid-alkaline ratio in the diet in health and disease, Dr. Ragnar Berg,
is about 80% alkali-producing foods and 20% acid-producing foods.
Now, if you are thinking of which choices of food items to consume more
of, the answer lies in the produce aisle of the grocery store, open-air
markets or if you are so inclined your garden.
Friends, I'm talking about fruits, leaves, herbs and perhaps Roots
and some permissible whole grains. (the latter choice being more of a
transitional item.)
These besides nourishing the body, will see to it that the intestinal
canal is kept clean owing to their broom-like qualities and are the
optimal choices for keeping the body fit, healthy and in shape.
So, if there is a diet for a new America, Let it be the Mucus-Less
Diet.
Here's to health and Happiness.
