10 Commandments of Natural Nutritional Healing
1) AVOID “S.A.D” STANDARD AMERICAN DIET
Any where that this diet is introduced in the World, results in increase of metabolic deceases like: diabetes, hypertension, obesity & cardiovascular disease; also known as western diet, this way of eating leads to inflammation, nutritional deficiencies and excess consumption of prescription drugs.
2) MEDICATIONS

3) CHEMICALS
Avoid touching or breathing of burning coal, gasoline, tar, pesticides, cleaning products, deodorizers etc.
4) HEAVY METALS
Have your blood tested for the content of mercury, lead, cadmium, aluminum and gold, in regards to their possible toxicity.
5) EATING
Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar, as you are going to use the majority of energy in the morning and slow down in the evening.
6) PROCESSED FOODS
Avoid the consumption of processed foods as much as possible and when selecting produce look for the organic option when available.
Why have a cup of coffee or tea to get a little stimulation if you are going to have decaf (with the process that it implies)? It is better to have a cup of hot or cold cocoa (using a natural blend that does not contain high fructose corn syrup) and herbal teas.
7) GLUTEN
Stay away from gluten as much as possible so you can experience the difference in your digestive system and level of energy. This is also great to help loose excess weight.
If your body tolerates it well, you can treat yourself once in a while. Whole grain gluten products are best and also don’t be afraid to try gluten free alternatives. Remember moderation is key!
8) STRESS
Yoga, meditation and positive thinking are great to shed stress.
9) EXERCISE
Developing the appropriate exercise routine for you is great because it keeps the body able to function physically…hopefully forever!
Include aerobics like, walking, jogging, swimming etc. for 30 minutes 5 days a week, best early in the morning, concentrate on the breathing count to 4 when inhaling and count to 3 when exhaling, that will create habit to avoid shallow breathing and help with stress.
Include resistance exercise like machines or free weights (machines are better for beginners) to build muscles, increase blood flow to the bones and keep joints lubricated.
10) DETOX
Saunas and Steam rooms are great to perspire and eliminate toxins.
Fasting for one day once a month with lemon water is a great way to cleanse and reset your metabolism.
