"Make Food Your Medicine"
No doubt you've all heard the saying, "you are what you eat", but have you ever thought to take that realism one step further and consider that you are also what drugs, prescriptions or medicines you eat, too?
The Chinese, for instance, have been successfully treating illnesses and various medical conditions with food for thousands of years and believe that you should
"Treat an illness first with food. Only if this fails should medicine be prescribed." (Sun Simao, court physician in the Tang Dynasty).
From shark's fin to tangerine peel and everything in between, every food source on our planet is its own self-contained medicine cabinet.
The really great news about treating illness or disease with food instead of drugs is that, although it may take longer to achieve the results you desire, in most cases the imbalance in your system will be corrected, rather than just suppressing the symptoms with fast-acting drugs which you must continue to ingest perhaps for a lifetime because your symptoms still remain.
Rather than addressing the cause of dysfunction in your body, when you simply mask symptoms with powerful drugs, the disease in your body will inevitably progress to an increasingly worse state until your body can no longer function, either from the burden of unnatural drugs in your body and/or the progression of your illness or disease to the point of total debilitation.
Many people have forgotten about care of their own body and so they eat to disease and death.
Rather than eating living foods of nature, many people eat from an almost totally dead food source that has had any goodness totally processed out of it through cooking, freezing, processing and preserving.
Rather than thinking about your food source as your daily medicine, too many of us eat solely for pleasure. Eating solely for pleasure, quite often means choosing food sources that really harm the body.
When you really care about your body, and choose life-promoting foods containing energy-packed elements, you give your body the strength it needs to regenerate itself.
Our bodies, in order to function efficiently, require the best quality medicine found in a live, natural food source.
Fresh fruits and vegetables, seeds and grains support the good health of the body because they contain the nourishing essence of living cellular energy.
Every cell and organ in your body makes continual internal repairs. This internal repair work can be seriously hindered with a poor diet or given a helping hand up with a good, live diet.
Your body is a true living temple and in order to maintain health must be treated with the
reverence it deserves and fortified every day with a pure food source.
Give your body the power to heal itself by choosing a diet packed with energizing vitamins for strength and vitality and eliminate foods containing chemical preservatives and make your food your medicine.
