The incredible Healing Powers of Living (Raw) Foods and Juices

Living Foods Why Raw Food Diet? Because from thirty to eighty-five percent of the nutrition in foods is destroyed in cooking. The fastest way to restore wellness is to stop putting into the body the things that have caused the physical problem to develop in the first place, and then give the body the nutrients it needs to repair and rebuild itself. The body is self-healing when the infraction is stopped and proper nutrients provided. Most human illnesses and diseases are due to a deficiency of vital nutrients. When you supply your body with the proper nutrients, in a form that your body can use, it knows how to repair itself.

Oils that can save your life! - (omega 3 fatty acids)

The human body cannot function properly without the omega 3 fatty acids which are found in Flaxseed Oil and Chia seeds oil. The degenerative disease epidemic that wracks the nation came coincidentally with the introduction of engineered fats and oils

Basic Healing Principles

Self Healing Body The body has an innate capacity to heal itself. Self-healing can only occur once the cause of the illness has been eliminated. Elimination of the symptom is not the same as elimination of the disease. Physicians and surgeons palliate symptoms instead of removing causes. Instead of suppressing individual symptoms, holistic and naturopathic medicine addresses the whole person, finds out why the body is vulnerable to sickness, and seek to correct the underlying cause of disease. By rebuilding immunity, health is naturally restored and disease disappears. If health and immunity are thereafter conscientiously maintained,the individual is no longer vulnerable to disease.

What Exactly is a Healing Crisis?

As you move toward better health with natural healing programs and better nutrition, healing begins to occur. As part of the healing process the body will begin to discard toxic residues which have built up in your body over the years. During the initial phase of healing, as your body begins to clean house, (detoxify) and your vital energy begins to repair and rebuild internal organs, you may temporarily experience headache, uneasiness, flu like symptoms and fatigue. In a healing crisis, every body system works together to eliminate waste products and set the stage for regeneration. The reversal process is another part of the healing crisis. It is necessary to revisit each step the body has been through that brought it to its current state of dis-ease.

The Immune System: The body's defense department

Your immune system is your bodyguard. It works both pro-actively and protectively to shield you from anything in your world that threatens your life and limb.

By rebuilding immunity, health is naturally restored and disease disappears.

Natural Self-Help Cancer Therapy Programs (For People and Animals)

Ralph W. Moss, Ph.D. - "Conventional cancer therapy is so toxic and dehumanizing that I fear it far more than I fear death from cancer. We know that conventional therapy doesn't work--if it did, you would not fear cancer any more than you fear pneumonia. It is the utter lack of certainty as to the outcome of conventional treatment that virtually screams for more freedom of choice in the area of cancer therapy."

Healing with Flowers and Herbs
