•  There are theories espousing the merits of dieting that range from starvation to consumption of mostly carbohydrates, mostly protein and mostly water.
•  There are theories extolling the merits of exercise from gym enthusiasts, yoga, and other instructors.
•  Others, who adamantly believe they have found a secret potion, lotion or twig, extoling the anecdotal benefits of their remedy for obesity.

 At this point, you must know our Company formulates and sells dietary supplements.  So, bear that in mind as you read on.

 To help clear up matters, there isn’t one simple way to lose weight (or to become healthy).  Each person is different – with diverse lifestyles, diet and heritage so results may vary.  But, there is a commonality the runs through all of us.

Humans are not the fastest or strongest creatures on the planet – we are among the most successful species on earth because our ancestors were farmers and ranchers.

• Early on, living by harvesting wild plants and animals and, later on, harvesting domesticated versions of the same.
•  There was, amonst our ancestors, a minimum level of exercise required to keep thier bodies fit.  It involved walking to find food, stooping to pick it up, light lifting to make their environment habitable.
•  Our ancestors were experts at recognizing a pending danger from one of the stronger, faster other creatures and taking an appropriate action by choosing to fight or run. 

 On one hand, those who didn’t, or couldn’t, follow this regime are not our ancestors because they didn’t survive.   On the other hand, thanks to the survivors who are our ancestors, we are blessed bodies that are adaptable, resilient and forgiving bodies.

 This brief review of the past 5000+ years of history is particularly helpful when applied to the context of the last 100 years. 

Today, we have automobiles, supermarkets, homes that are automatically heated and cooled and jobs with challenges that are often threatening. 

 The adaptability of the human body is being tested by this explosion of creature comforts and stress.  They are creating disparity between what the body expects and what it is getting that, if left unfilled, produce the predictable outcome we are experiencing:  obesity and declining health.

 One would think that we could overcome 5000+ years of adaptation in short order with all the technology at our disposal, but we haven’t – so far.

 Researchers are predicting that this generation of children will be the first that have a shorter life-span and experience more health challenges than any other generation in modern times.

And, judging from the ever-expanding use of healthcare services, our generation isn’t doing so well, either.

 Personally, I think it is this misconception that technology will win the day that is to blame.  This paradigm lulls us into relying on something or someone to undo the harm we cause to ourselves.

 Resilience is another characteristics that our ancestors passed on is resilience.  It allows for the body to bounce back to balance if and when it expectations have been met.

 Herein lies the your opportunity.  You can change the way things are by changing the things you do.

Our ancestors:

• experienced moderate exercise, waking, stooping and light lifting. 
• They consumed whole, fresh food.
• They dealt with threats, in a civil fashion, and then forgot about them. 

Do that!

 Admittedly, there will be gaps, particularly in your diet.

Fill those gaps with well-rounded quality supplements that will cost less than a quicky, fast-food meal or a designer cup of coffee.

 A forgiving body is the final characteristic we inherited from our ancestors which offers all of us hope.

Using its newly found bounty of moderate exercise, wholesome nutrition and lower stress levels, the body will begin to restore itself to the fullest potential.

 The questions, at this point, are:

• How many of you will actually relinquish the false paradigm that technology will save the day?
• How many of you will take responsibility to be good shepherds for your body?

 While not suggesting a return to Neanderthal time, you can manage many important factors. 

You have the power.

• The power over your checkbook.  Stop purchasing foods that you know aren’t wholesome.
• The power over how you spend your time.  Use it wisely in your work, with your family, for moderate exercise and rest.
• The power over the stress that you allow in your life.  Deal with it the forget it.

 And, if you’re still wondering what else you can do, here’s a good place to start.  Read this material.

 Returning to weight management, the same culprits, diet, exercise and stress are blame.  Losing weight is a three-step process:

1.  Maintain your weight going forward

• Change the things you do.
• Do more thing right than wrong.

2.  Put you body back into balance by addressing:

• Waking time metabolism
• Sleeping time metabolism
• Nutritional deficiencies
• Mineral Cofactor deficiency
• Regularity

3.  Address other deficiency or dysfunction:

• Nutrition:  ranging from a balanced, whole food diet to crucial trace minerals
• Phytonutrients:  found in colorful vegetables and fruit
• Digestion:  adding back the food enzymes that cooking destroys and renewing intestinal microbes
• Ph Balance: concentrate on foods that restore internal alkalinity
• Specific Male or Female issues

 Health isn’t a destination, it’s a journey and you’re in charge.

1. EDE stands for: Eliminate naturally, Digest completely, Eat fresh foods
2. EDE is essential for every living thing on earth!
3. EDE is the most important component of health, next to water.
4. EDE is the foundation of every function of your body.
5. EDE is so important that plants, animals and humans become sick and can die when it is interrupted.

Why is Elimination the First Thing on the List?
That’s easy! If you pour water into a pipe that is capped at the other end, what happens? That’s right! Nothing comes out. If you pour more water in – it just keeps filling up the pipe until it overflows. It doesn’t matter what you put in the pipe – good or bad – solids or liquids – it just keeps backing up.

IF YOU DO NOT REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE END OF THE PIPE,
IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT YOU PUT IN, IT IS STILL PLUGGED UP!

Natural elimination is: Eat a Meal – Eliminate a Meal.
You can see natural elimination in action when you feed a newborn – about ten minutes after feeding the baby you need to change the diaper.  THAT’S REGULARITY – THAT’S THE WAY IT SHOULD BE!  Otherwise, you are constipated.

Incidentally, that’s why people think supplements don’t work – they get stuck somewhere in the pipe and can’t get to where they can do anything. And, if you think about what’s happening to all that stuff that is just hanging around in the pipe . . . it isn’t a very pretty thought.

The Body is Designed to Store Two Meals:

1. digesting one meal in the intestines,
2. processing the remains of a second meal in the colon for elimination.

When you’re eating a new meal, chewing signals the intestinal muscles to make room for the next batch of food – the remains of the digesting food are pushed to the top of colon for final processing – the wastes are pushed out:  ONE MEAL IN – ONE MEAL OUT!

Dr. Kenneth Cooper, M.D., M.P.H., internationally renowned Physician and the founder of the Cooper Wellness Clinic in Dallas TX., asks his audiences a telling question: Are you 3-sixes, 2-nines, or 1-eightteen?

He explains that the size, nature and frequency of elimination reflects a person’s health. His point is: the healthiest people eliminate one, two or three times every day a total of 18 inches of 2 inch around cigar shaped waste.

Otherwise, the body is burdened with the accumulating sludge, the toxins it produces during the day, the weight and bulk of the accumulating wastes.

For example, Jane Doe eats 3 times a day:

1. breakfast – coffee & toast
2. break – coffee & “a little something to tide her over”
3. lunch – fast food salad with dressing
4. break – a soda & “something from the vending machine”
5. dinner – meat, potatoes, a canned vegetable
6. snacks in front of the TV
7. She eliminates regularly every other day

The result of her health test is: 3 (meals) / 1 (elimination) =
3 x 2 (days between elimination) = 6 x 1.5 lbs. = 9 lbs. of you know what!

Do you really think that carrying around of all of that stuff is healthy?
Most people would answer NO! The fastest and easiest way to eliminate the accumulated debris, toxins and organisms is to choose a safe, natural cleansing and detoxification program to sweep all that stuff away.  Or not.  It is your life, it is your choice.

 

There is a tendency, in the supplement industry, to guise supplements as magic bullets, too.  It is easy to understand because once medicine has failed them, people still want to believe that there is a secret natural something, collected from some remote area of the world or a carefully guarded “secret” purloined from a tribal healer that will fix them.

The first thing you must know:  there are no magic bullets.

One of the objectives of our blog is to provide knowledge you can build on. Within our blog are solid, practical concepts that can help you understand the role you should play when you are dealing with issues concerning your health.

Manage Your Most Valuable Asset

The first step is to change your perception that there is a magic something that will fix you.  There are no magic bullets.

Next, your body is a complex organism with straightforward rules.  Learn the rules.

Finally, take control of your health.  Don’t wait for the shoe to drop before taking action.  Become proactive with a strategy that promotes health.

Build From a Foundation Knowledge

Frankly, it is difficult to get most people’s attention unless they are looking for the magic bullet, or a secret concoction to fix their health.  When people are looking, they can fall prey to the lure of magic bullets and secrets.  Likewise, it is easy to overlook the probability that their body lacks a sufficient quantity and quality of the nutrients that are essential to maintain and promote health.

Please, take a few minutes to review links provided in this essay.  They, along with your good judgment, should provide you knowledge you can build on to help put you squarely in control of your most valuable asset – your health.

Remember:  it is easier to stay healthy than to get healthy; or if you have neglected to protect your health, your body can heal itself given enough time and the nutrients it needs.
