From the desk of Richard
Penfounde, your Naturally Healthy Lifestyle specialist. Human beings are the only creatures on earth that:
- smoke tobacco
- consume processed foods
- drink coffee and tea copiously
- eat fried foods continuously
- drink cow's milk throughout our lives
- add sugar to our foods and liquids
- add salt to our foods and liquids
- continue to eat when we are not feeling well
- consume social and medicinal drugs
We are the results of the products that we put in our mouths and
often those that we do not put in our mouths. Our bodies are
eventually shaped and our skin conditioned by these processes over a
period of time. Every disease takes time to develop, often 20 or
more years. Disease in our body varies from mild to moderate to
serious and the progression is often so slow that it is not
recognised at the time that it is happening.
Remember, it was not until the turn of the 20th century that
technology to refine foods on a massive scale introduced foods into
today's mass market for human and animal consumption. And it is only
in the last twenty years that alcohol has been produced in
quantities the world has never before experienced.
Lifestyle changes are needed by almost every man, woman and child if
we are to survive beyond the next generation as a species. But habit
is so engrained that most people can't handle change effectively.
The experience, however is that almost everyone who does make a
significant lifestyle changes experience, a happiness, energy,
spiritual, homeostatic state never experienced in their adult lives.
Their job, family, sexual, and community activities elevate to
levels they had only previously dreamed about.
For us moderns action plans should include serious consideration of:
- Ceasing to do things that make us sick, emotionally unbalanced,
unsuccessful, unwell, incapable and downright unhappy.
- Start to do the things that make us well, emotionally balanced,
successful, loved and capable of great achievements.
- Selecting those mineral and vitamin supplements that have become a
daily necessity because the nutritional quality of the food has
declined considerably over the past century.
- Getting to know our body's needs and balancing problem areas
naturally as our body signals them to us.
Happiness, health and love are our human right.
