| Seven Principles for Physical Health
Applying the principles outlined below will result in significant improvement in your physical health.
Key Points:
- Regular exercise is important. It doesn’t have to be strenuous but it needs to be consistent. Look for ways to move your body and burn energy. If you’re not into gym work or jogging, things like taking the dog for a regular walk, using the stairs instead of the elevator or washing the car instead of putting it through the car wash are all examples of keeping your body active.
- Learn and practice the principles of a healthy diet. Eat plenty of fresh food in the form of fruit and vegetables, lean meats, dairy produce and assorted whole grain foods. Reduce your fat intake particularly in the form of deep fried foods and fatty meats. Excess sugar intake causes many problems and we should be aware that it’s often hidden in high concentrations in foods like soft drinks, lollies, cakes and sugary cereals. Make sure you drink lots of water on a daily basis to help flush out toxins from the body.
- Restrict alcohol intake to one or two drinks per day. Although small amounts of alcohol can increase levels of the body’s mood enhancing chemical serotonin and make us make us feel better, excess alcohol intake can have the reverse effect. Other effects of excess alcohol intake include elevated blood pressure and increased risk of stroke and heart disease, liver damage, elevates risk of several types of cancer (eg breast, liver, pancreatic cancer) and it can cause neuropathy and dementia as well as impairing balance and memory.
- Quit Smoking. If you’re a smoker and the cigarettes don’t kill you, they will definitely reduce your level of wellness.
- Stay clear of other recreational drugs. They all impact on the body’s natural function and therefore inhibit optimal health. If you choose to taste the short term pleasure assosciated with drug intake, then be prepared to pay the health price in the longer term.
- Use a quality vitamin and mineral supplement. The level of soil degradation of our farmland, combined with modern food processing and storage techniques means that even if we eat a balanced diet, it’s highly unlikely that we’ll consume the quality nutrients required for optimal health.
I recommend and use GNLD supplements as the premier product in nutritional supplementation. For more information, visit the website on www.gnld.com
- Take HIMALAYAN GOJI JUICE everyday. It is a sweet tasting, natural juice extract from the Himalayan Goji Berry that has an amazing effect on personal health and according to the worlds leading nutritionist, Dr Earl Mindell, “I believe the Himalayan Goji Berry has the most powerful benefits on health and well being that I’ve seen in my 40 years of research”.
