Dietary Therapy

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.”

All foods have a therapeutic value. It can either help us in our quest for balance or have the opposite effect. Almost all doctors of the past relied heavily on a proper and balanced diet to not only cure sickness, but to reach optimum health. We should not rely solely on drugs prescribed by our doctors to heal us. Most would be amazed at how many of their problems disappear simply by changing what they eat.

“If you think the pursuit of good health is expensive and time consuming, try illness.”

It is important to have perspective on the actions we take. What may seem a certain way to us at the moment is oftentimes not the full story. We make the difficult decisions now so that our goals may becomes a reality. It has often been said that wisdom is the ability to make decisions based off of a longer vision.

“Food is fuel, not
an escape.”

Unfortunately, many of us use food as a way to calm the instability in our mind and eat due to emotions. Food however, should be viewed as a fuel source. As an example, imagine we owned an F1 race car. How many of us would put 87 octane in it? We would certainly put only the highest grade, triple filtered fuel inside, simply because that is what it’s designed for. We as human beings are the most sophisticated piece of machinery on this planet, yet we constantly put things in our body that it’s not designed to process. Start treating your body with the care it deserves and enjoy the reward that’s sure to follow.
