Staying healthy requires committment

Posted by Donna on January 28, 2009 at 3:13 pm.

As we age, many parts of us stop working or get depleted.  The process usually begins at age 30-35, depending on how well we have taken care of ourselves prior to that age.  How many times, on the eve of a new year have we all vowed to lose weight, eat better, get more exercise?  How long does it last?  If you are like me, it usually lasts until I pass a Dunkin’ Donuts.  But as time passes on, the Dunkin’ Donuts choice begans to show on our faces, on our rears, in our hands and arms, in our feet and legs.  We either sleep too much or can’t get to sleep.  This phenomena relates directly to all the food we eat, the water we drink, and the air we breathe because these are the elements of cell regeneration or degeneration.

In this fast world, it is a much simpler choice to hit McDonalds or Pizza Hut  for the evening meal.  I know from experience that many times in my life, I was just too tired to prepare a nutritious meal for me and my family.  As a result, I managed too kill my pancreas, so now I have to be careful as never before. It seems sometimes that I live my life chained to my blood sugar monitor and insulin shots.  It is the same for anyone with any kind of degenerative disease, but along the way in this long road of learning, experimenting, falling down and getting up, I have earned an unofficial degree in tricks to make me feel better.

I have learned that natural food creates synergy with cells and is the best medicine.  Cures that come right out of the garden provide long term relief from much that ails us.  That doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with doctors, but sometimes there is much wrong with their medicines.  Pharmaceuticals may purge the symptoms of an illness for a while, but it seems that the same illnesses will come back again and again and we never ascend to a cure for what ails us.  How long has cancer research been going on?  I can tell you — it has been forever.  Billions of dollars have been spent on cancer research and no cure has ever been found. The reason, I believe, is because researchers depend on grants to earn a living and hospitals have invested in both equipment and pharmacology designed to “manage” cancer into remission, if  you are lucky.  It is economically expedient to manage diseases rather than cure them and as a result, healthcare employs millions of people and healthcare costs continue to rise astronomically.

What does this tell you? It tells ME that we better learn how to be responsible for our own health.  I cannot control when I die, but God willing, I would like for this body of mine to be comfortable until that day comes when I leave this world and I do not want to leave my children bankrupt because I could not pass up a Dunkin’ Donuts.  Stay tuned.

  • It doesn’t matter which words you choose, as long as they help you visualize your goal. Do buy patches from a reputed company as you know that you are receiving quality products.

  • This concept has experienced a resurgence in popularity thanks to books like The Secret, and a renewed belief in the Law of Attraction. Nobody I know who has used phentermine has had a sustained weight loss, they haven’t lost large amounts of weight, and the risks of the medication are great for people who already have enlarged hearts or elevated blood pressures.

  • Such fads are the price we pay for living in an obese capitalist society, but do any of them work. Statistically, those who use fad diets gain back their weight or even more weight 90 of the time. This fast weight loss online program is very simple to follow and the techniques that are outlined inside the program itself are proven to work.
