Optimum family health plan: To enjoy optimum health and wellness you should stop thinking of individual foods as cures for sickness. A good alternative is to think about sickness being the result of not getting all these good things in your diet.
Why does this matter? Because if you have to cure something you are not in optimum health. If you can't see in the dark you aren't getting enough carotene from carrots. But if you think of beta carotene as a medicine for night blindness, you will buy it and it has killed some smokers.
Let's face it, there are hundreds of carotenes in fresh fruit and vegetables. When you isolate and synthesize just one of them you are getting involved in medicine, which is for sick people - not optimum health.
You can't have an exciting way of living without natural wellness.
Avoid Poisons
We get poisons in the air we breathe and in our nutrition. If you can get hold of a copy of "How to Grow Fresh Air" by Dr. BC Wolverton it will show you how to grow plants that will take the main poisons out of the air in your home. The rubber plant for example removes the main poison, formaldehyde, from your air, and is easy to grow.
If what you eat is not certified organic, it is dangerous to eat milk and eggs, which concentrate all the agricultural poisons. If you are looking for excellent nutrition in the USA, try bison. In the UK, try venison. In Australia try kangaroo. Meat from these animals is likely to have less poison, because they aren't agricultural livestock.
If you rely heavily on fruit and vegetables from chemical farmers, buy some detergent from a health store to wash the poisons off from the outside of your groceries. Your water still probably has poisonous chloride and fluoride in it, but a water-purifier can be very expensive.
Give your body what it needs
Best lifestyle needs exercise as well as sunlight. Sunburn is dangerous but sunlight is good for you, so increase your sunbathing gradually.
