Is Your Health Your Wealth?
Your health is your wealth – a jewel in your
treasure chest. As I start writing on newsbf.com,
it is my desire to help my readers realize that
your health is one of the best gifts you can
give your loved ones. I will be writing articles
focused on NATURAL means of dealing with common
health concerns.We live in a world where allopathic medicine has made it a common practice to use a pill to mask a symptom rather than finding out what is causing the symptom to appear. We search for a little pill to help with problems ranging from heart burn to low libido. Wouldn’t it be nice to find out what is causing the heart burn or other symptoms in the first place?
My goal is to get my readers to make changes in their lifestyle so they don’t get sick. If you are healthy you can’t be sick.
Hippocrates coined the term, “Let thy food be thy medicine, let thy medicine be thy food."
Ironically, Hippocrates is thought of as the Father of Western Medicine yet this concept of using food as medicine is nonexistent in our medical establishment. Somehow we have gotten away from nutrition. By using food to fuel your bodies and supplements made from the plants God created you can help avoid a health crisis.
God created food as fuel for the body and for medicine. Ezekiel 47:12 says "Along the bank of the river, on this side and that, will grow all [kinds of] trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine." (NKJV - emphasis added)
So, we have food for fuel and plants for medicine…created since the beginning of time by our God. And, guess what - these same plants and foods were created from the same dust of the earth that man was created from. Coincidence? I think not!
Now I'm not saying that a trip to the doctor isn't warranted on certain occasions, but when did it become common practice to let someone that studies medicine instead of health and nutrition dictate how you treat your body?
If our bodies contain the same minerals that our soil does why should we put synthetic products into our body? We all know what happens when we don't give our house plants or our gardens proper nourishment, right? Why should it be different than with the human body? You wouldn't fertilize grandma’s prized dahlias using brake fluid or petroleum would you?
If the same elements that feed plants are used to feed our bodies why do we consume foods that would kill a houseplant and think nothing of it? And, why do we feed it to our kids? Why do we use harmful chemicals in our personal care products when 60% of what is put on the skin goes to our bloodstream?
These and many other questions are what I will be asking my readers to think about. Not only do I want you to think about these questions, I want you to act on them and make changes to better your health. I won’t only be asking these questions but will be giving you answers so that you are equipped with the proper tools to open your treasure chest of wealth!
So, stay tuned for more health jewels that you can use to increase your health!
