Treat the cause–– not the symptoms.
“One of the biggest tragedies of human civilization is the precedence of chemical therapy over nutrition. It is the substitution of artificial therapy over natural, in which we are feeding people poisons trying to correct the reactions of starvation.” ––Dr. Royal Lee (1895-1967) Inventor, Scientist, Genius, Founder of Standard Process, Inc.
Where is my vitality? Why do I ache all over? Why am I tired even after I have had “plenty” of sleep? Like millions of Americans, you may be experiencing the signs of nutritional deficiency. Food is the fuel that energizes our body for work, play and healing. It is the source of our vitality and contains all substances necessary for the regulation of all our bodily processes.
Our environment has become polluted. Most people live far removed from farms and have no gardens. Food is processed to allow for long distance transportation and a long shelf-life, not nutritional content. Synthetic compounds are used to increase crop yields, to add flavor, and to preserve food. Then, we use synthetic vitamins and medications to treat deficiency diseases caused by depletion of lifegiving nutrients.
Synthetic compounds are the result of man-made alterations to nature. When a person is suffering from a nutritional deficiency or the side effects of pollution wholesome food is the answer. Treat the cause––not the symptoms.
Only 50 years ago, baby formula was considered equal to mother’s milk. There are hundreds of nutrients, enzymes, co-enzymes, vitamins and minerals in mother’s milk––things scientists don’t even know about yet, are in mother’s milk and in all natural foods. Go to: www.promom.org/101/index.html for information about mother’s milk.
The point? Mother’s milk is an example of Nature’s perfection in the feeding of human babies. “Junk” and fast “foods” don’t support health - only wholesome foods will. We need to understand this and begin to make choices which will build our health rather than tear it down.
The solution? Whole foods and wholefood concentrates.
What is a nutritional deficiency? A condition of the body in which the essential health building nutritional factors are not available (from what you eat) to establish or maintain optimal health. Virtually every condition of ill-health the body can experience is connected to a nutritional deficiency.
What causes nutritional deficiency? Pollution of the air, water and food with chemicals, pesticides and other toxins drain your body of essential nutrients. Junk food, incorrectly prepared foods, and foods eaten in poor combination with other foods result in poor digestion of essential nutrients and drains your body of enzymes, coenzymes and other health building factors. These are the causes of the development of nutritional deficiencies.
What can I do to build my health? Eat simple foods – unprocessed foods whenever possible. Enhance your digestive process by taking enzymes, coenzymes and other health building catalysts daily. Drink good pure water, get a moderate amount of exercise––daily walks for example––and enjoy the benefits of regular natural health care check-ups.
