My Health Journey. Where Shall I Begin?

Instead of cleansing the digestive and intestinal organs as I would normally recommend, we will begin at the mouth. To be more specific, what we put into the mouth.  Most of what we eat is not food.  We ingest many chemicals processed together and formed into different shapes with huge amounts of sugar and / or salt to mask the poisonous taste of the chemicals.  The human body is not meant to function using chemicals, drugs, antibiotics, salt and sugar.  We feel so exhausted because we rarely give our bodies what is really needed to live.  Our bodies need Sunlight, Clean Air, Pure Water, Carbohydrates, Fats, Protein, Vitamins and Minerals.  The best source to obtain most of these nutrients is from raw, organic foods.

The first step in obtaining these nutrients is digestion.  As our age increases, the ability to digest food decreases.  This is because processed and cooked foods have little to no enzymes to help with digestion.  Enzymes are protein based substances that help to break down the nutrients in food to enable our bodies to build bones, muscles, organs, skin, hair and to remove waste.  Some of the possible symptoms of a lack of enzymes are feeling tired after eating, belching after meals, feeling bloated, body odor and/or bad breath, excessive or loss of appetite,  gallbladder problems and heart burn.  If your current food choices include meat, dairy and fried foods, you should start taking a product called Food Enzymes.  If you are a Vegetarian who also does not eat dairy products, you should take a product called Proactazyme Plus.  These products will take some of the stress off your digestive organs by helping with the digestion of food.

Next article will address cleansing the Intestinal track to help increase the absorption of nutrients.
