Happy Sunday

6/2/2022

It was good to see Becky yesterday. Unfortunately, our usual eating place was not serving food, so we went to Haworth’s famous pub, The Bull Inn and had lunch there instead. In the evening I went to Church. It was lovely to be back in Church attending Mass again. I did feel quite exhausted when I came home, and I put my feet up and relaxed in the evening doing virtually nothing until I went to bed. I slept well and am well rested and will take it easy today.

Here are 3 everyday foods that destroy your immune system and metabolic health:
1. Processed & packaged food
2. Sugars (toxic)
3. Refined carbs ( white bread, white pasta and white rice)
Find out why by watching this video:

Thank you for all your prayers and good wishes – they are certainly helping me in my road to recovery.

Stay vigilant. Keep the faith. Question everything. Stand your ground. Do not comply. Pray and keep praying.

Happy Sunday.

What is health?

Health is generally defined as the absence of disease. It is also a state of inner joyfulness and positive wellbeing.

We are the creators of our own health or disease. Our body is the most priceless possession, and we should learn to take care of it as best as we can. It is a daily duty we should indulge in, otherwise, we shall not be able to keep our minds strong and clear.

Good health is not something we can buy. It can be an extremely valuable savings account. Our health must be treated as an investment, not an expense. Health is the real wealth, not the pieces of gold and silver. All the money in the world can’t buy you back good health. It costs money to stay healthy, but it’s even more expensive to get sick. Health is like money. We never have a true idea of its value until we lose it.

Take care of your body - it’s the only place you have to live. If your body’s not right, the rest of your day will go all wrong. No matter how much it gets abused, the body can restore balance. The first rule is to stop interfering with nature. The food we eat can either be the safest and the most powerful form of medicine or the slowest form of poison. The preservation of health is easier than the cure. Take care of yourself by being aware of what you consume. It’s not just what you put in your mouth, but also what you take in through your other senses of sight, sound, touch, and smell.

Love yourself enough to live a healthy lifestyle. A healthy lifestyle not only changes your body. It changes your mind, your attitudes, and your moods. Self-care is how you take your power back. When you have your health, you have everything. Those who think they have no time for healthy eating will sooner or later have to find time for illness.

Being fit and healthy isn’t a fad or a trend. It is a lifestyle. True health infuses positive energy in the mind, body, and spirit. Motivate the mind and the body will follow.

“Our bodies are our gardens, to the which our wills are gardeners.” William Shakespeare - The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice.
Gardening is not easy; it involves a large amount of dirt, sweat, and failure. But the rewards, which go beyond the final results each year, are well worth the effort. And the effort itself is often a pleasure, especially as experience teaches us the most efficient and successful methods.

As with gardening, it is surprisingly easy to train one’s tastes away from harmful treats and toward more nourishing ones. I know. I’ve been there and done it. I never would have believed that I would be able to do without chocolate - I hardly eat chocolate these days! I eat only real food when I'm hungry and that's usually once a day. I am fit and healthy and I have a good immune system I can depend on.

There's a wealth of resources that can help with improving and maintaining your health. Here's one of them:

Many conditions are reversible by changing one's diet. It's been too easy to use medical intervention to treat the symptoms than to look at dealing with what caused the condition in the first place, which more often than not, is due to what we consume.

Why do I keep going on about the reducing the consumption of carbohydrates, especially starchy carbs & highly processed foods, like vegetable & seed oils?

The beauty of consuming fewer starchy carbs & sugar is that you get to strengthen your immune system.

The primary purpose of a strong immune system is to defend you from disease, virus, bacteria and fungus.

You can do this by eating real food. Start today and see the difference in less than 3 weeks.

Yes - I beat my Saturday record!
It's all in the video.

Those of you contemplating switching to a low-carbohydrate way of life could ask yourself this morning before having breakfast, the so-called "most important meal of the day", if you are really hungry.

I asked myself the question, "Why should I eat if I'm not feeling hungry?" These days, I only eat when I'm hungry, and that's usually once a day.

I feel great. I'm healthy and strong. I live on a meat-based diet - no fruits (full of sugar - fructose), minimal quantities of vegetables (mushrooms mainly and sauerkraut) and some nuts.

Using this method of deep breaths I have beaten my record of yesterday's 35 press ups.
(Yesterday's video is here: https://youtu.be/1sObNhe9rT8)

I feel great.
I am healthy, fit and strong.
I eat real food once a day.
Today I will fast for over 40 hours to stimulate autophagy.
Autophagy is the body’s way of cleaning out damaged cells, in order to regenerate newer, healthier cells.

The Shocking link between sugar and Alzheimer's Disease

17/2/2020

I've just come across an article linking the sugar consumption to Alzheimer's Disease. I've often wondered about the increasing numbers of people suffering with Alzheimer's Disease. It would seem that the government guidelines of cutting back on fats and increasing carbohydrates intake have contributed to the increase in people suffering this disease.

I believe it's time to get the word out to ditch the carbs and eat more healthy meat and fat.

Here's the link to the article:

Can Keto Fight Off Cancer?

9/12/2019

The evidence is slowly coming out about how sugar adversely affects metabolic health, which includes cancer.

Here are the links to Dr Christy Kesslering's talk on cancer and sugar:
Part 1: https://youtu.be/GD10WiMc2L4
Part 2: https://youtu.be/rDuqqPrhfc4

I've often wondered, and I'm sure most people do as well, why the incidence of cancer has skyrocketed over the past couple of decades. I can't help linking it to the governments' recommended dietary guidelines of eating a low fat, high carb diet. I think most of us know that low-fat diets contain sugar to improve the taste. This way of eating for the past 30-40 years seems to have made more people sick than healthy. It's time to have a serious look at reducing carbohydrates (sugars & starches) including fruits as fruits contain fructose, which is processed differently and increasing healthy fat intake, which does NOT include processed oils like vegetable oils, rapeseed oil, soya oil, margarine, etc.
