Herbology as an ancient science has been tried, tested, and ultimately proven throughout the centuries. Only recently has the western culture tried to capitalize on this time-tested knowledge. Sadly to say, many herb based and vitamin supplements are missing several key factors that govern thier success. Those factors are purity and balance! Many supplements on the market today are impure combinations that are unbalanced, which keeps them from being utilized properly by your body. They are filled with fillers and other harmful and benign ingredients, and to put it bluntly, they are a waste of time and money. In all truthfulness these types of unbalanced herbal combinations can actually be harmful to your body.
In the Bible, it describes how Mediterranean diet and health practices were rich in natural substances created by God to help maintain health, and to protect from the ravages of disease. The Bible often speaks of God placing a hedge of protection around his people. "Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? Thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land" (Job 1:10). The hedge of protection includes all of his possessions, his material goods as well as his physical body. God has provided through the use of natural substances, a way for us to strengthen and build up our "hedge of protection" to ward off illness and disease, and maintain the health and wellness of our bodies.
"The Bible Cure's "natural" hedge of protection inside the human body protects us from a vast onslaught of diseases and illnesses. The natural hedge is known as the immune system. This incredible system protects us from anything from the "sniffles" of a cold to the destruction of cancer. An overactive immune system can attack our own body cells, resulting in diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis (auto-immune diseases). A failure of the immune system can result in cancer, and an overly sensitive immune system can result in allergies. A weakened immune system accelerates the aging process. ~ Reginald Cherry, M.D. The Bible Cure, 1998
Most of us grew up in a generation where convienient, pre-packaged, easy preparation processed foods and drinks were accepted as totally safe and nutritious. Do we really know what all of these ingreidents and food additives are that we can't even pronounce? If we would do some research on them, we would find out that the majority of these ingredents are actually toxic to our bodies, and are added to foods to enhance taste and texture. The findings on one such "safe" additive for weight control, aspartame, is quite convincing enough. Should we really be trusting these companies who claim that their products are within the FDA safety guidelines? And just how safe are the FDA guidelines? Now we are beginning to realize the importance of following a natural health plan as set forth by God, but where do we begin? Can we eat enough healthy quality food to sustain and/or heal our bodies? The truth of the matter is, no. We can eat healthy foods if they are grown organically, but as evidence shows, in order to stay healthy, we must put a higher form of nutrition into our bodies than is available via the food sources we have access to in these modern times. (Try our Ezekiel Bread recipe for a great nutritious food that comes straight from the word of God.)
Due to the poor quality of food which is grown today, food grown in mineral depleated soils, covered with toxic chemicals and agricultural sprays, we are not able to get enough nutrients from our food sources, infact, our bodies are actually abosbing more toxic chemicals from them than nutrients (a major cause of cancer in the U.S.), unless they are certified to be organic. Not only are these toxins in our plant sources, but also in milk, eggs, cheese, meat etc. -- due to animals ingesting feed from crops that are treated or sprayed with CHEMICAL FERTILIZERS, HERBICIDES AND PESTICIDES. A recent study done to compare nutrients in fresh fruits and vegetables, past vs. present day, shows that many contain almost 50% less nutrient value than they did 50 years ago! How do we get safe, nutrient rich food that will help our body's immune system to protect us from the toxins that are bombarding us from everywhere? Should we take food supplements containing vitamins, minerals and herbs, and if so, how do we sift through all of the healthcare market supplement hype to find the ones that are truly able to add 100% of the nutrient value to our diets as they promise? With the vast array of supplements available how do we know which ones are dangerous? How do we know which ones to take and how much? In order to get ALL of the proper nutrients from supplimental sources, wouldn't we have to spend a small fortune? The answer is simple.......do some RESEARCH!
The only supplements that are healthy and of any nutritive value to our bodies are those that are pure, organic, and balanced to work within the body's delicate system, and must be in a form that can be absorbed and assimilated through our body's internal organs. Are there food supplement formulas that have been tested and proved to be effective in helping the body to rebuild itself? Are there good, reliable, total health supplements available that are "complete" and include all of the ingredents needed to maintain health, that are economical and cost effective? The answer is, yes. Please see the "Natural Health & Nutrition Made Easy" link below. |
