Two processes of destruction and rehabilitation lead the fight in the human body from the moment of birth and to the end of life. When we are young, the rehabilitation process is dominating where as process of destruction is still weak and not as significant. However, by the age 30 (or sometimes sooner) the destruction process grows stronger.
What exactly is being destructed in the human body?
The cells of the body become clogged and overfilled with toxicity, loose their elasticity and begin to age. Skin and tissue stretch and hang. Joint glands clog-up and produce less lubrication causing joint bones to rub against each other. Gradually joints rub off and cover-up with salt crystals and uric acid. Polluted large intestine (colon) contaminates blood, blood vessels and lymphatic system - slowing down circulation.
The heart exhausts by trying to overcome the pressure in the colon and by pushing the blood through congested vessels, and finally wears off. The energy starts to drop drastically. Slowly, but surely all organs and systems become congested and polluted, which significantly lowers their functioning. The body accumulates and produces more toxicity, and fewer nutrients to feed the immune system. The protection system weakens. Unfriendly bacteria, infection and other parasites meet less and less resistance from the immune system and reproduce easily. These creatures eat our nutrients, organs and muscles. They eat us alive! The body’s resistance to destruction lowers rapidly and our unthoughtful actions speed up the process even more.
As scary as this might sound, there is a key to this puzzle. Building a strong foundation is essential. Our parents always worked hard to give us every possible advantage in life. Yet too often they didn’t have time to look after our nutritional health. They were too busy. They didn’t understand what eating right meant. Sounds about right? Were we given a good, healthy and strong foundation, and are we giving it to our children?
It is now a proven fact that our taste buds develop during the first 2 years of life. So if by that age children are not used to eating their vegetables and fruits, they’ll never really enjoy them. That’s where the “picky eaters” come from. It’s not their fault. If their parents chose an easy rout and fed them processed food and the only vegetables kids got were from a jar (pasteurized), how can they develop a taste for what’s really good for them? As a result, children eat and drink too much sugar, consume too many empty calories and don’t eat enough of the good things they need- especially fresh fruits and vegetables. Because of this children are now more at risk of developing degenerative diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and stroke at a much younger age.
Here are a few of the startling statistics:
· Less than 7% of all children and adolescents consume the recommended 3 servings of vegetables per day.
(Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine)
· 1 child in 4 is obese.
(International Journal of Obesity)
· Nearly 50% of obese adolescents remain obese as adults.
(International Journal of Obesity)
· About 6% of elementary school children and 7% of adolescent children miss 11 or more days of school yearly due to illness or injury.
(Center for Disease Control and Prevention)
· In the last 20 years, Type 2 diabetes has increased ten-fold.
(International Journal of Obesity)
· By the age of 12, an estimated 70% of our children have developed the beginning stages of hardening of the arteries.
(Bogalusa Heart Study)
· 7% of school age children are diagnosed as ADHD.
(Center for Disease Control and Prevention)
We’re not paying enough attention to good nutrition and our children are paying the price.
Young bodies can be very easily healed and destruction processes can be quickly reversed at the young age. Kids need our attention. They need us to feed their bodies well so that they can be at their best performance. It is our responsibility as parents to learn healthy eating and show an example. We can’t blame our kids for eating things they should not eat if we have it in our homes. We go shopping. We are in control. As we set an example, they will follow. We have to find time to prepare healthy meals, which are usually simple, fun delicious and very quick to make. There are great whole food supplements available to supplement children’s diets. There is an abundance of information and resources to help our children grow up strong and healthy. Let’s give them all the best. They deserve it. And for us, those who were not given that strong foundation, there is also a chance for change. We can detoxify our systems, and then rebuild what’s missing through proper individualized diet. Don’t we also deserve full, healthy and vibrant lives?
Stay well and please, Live Healthy.
