You can restore your health and you can avoid chronic disease. There is no need for you or anyone else you know and love to suffer from disease. The information you need to achieve a good level of health is available and if you are so inclined you can even pursue optimal health with peak physical performance and increased longevity. The price is self-education plus disciplined implementation.

Dr Zach Bush is at the cutting edge of discovering how the body works in relation to the microbiome and the health of our gut. His discovery of redox molecules made by bacteria in the soil led to the ground breaking product Restore that is scientifically proven to preserve the integrity of the gut lining and support optimal diversity of the microbiome. These, we now know, are the foundations of health and well being.

Your health is in your hands. Simply by assuming responsibility for what we put into our mouths combined with a program of physical movement appropriate to age and ability, we can reverse disease and increase longevity. The one major mistake people make is assuming their Doctor knows how to be healthy. He does not. He is great at diagnosis and traumatic injury repair, but not at understanding the roots of health. This is why it is so important to think outside the box, You have to step outside the Matrix to find information on how to be healthy and their are a grwoing number of reliable sources presented in this blog. Dr Zach Bush is one such source.

The whole health package includes several themes that must be attended to (below) but the big two are diet and exercise.

The main lifestyle challenge here being the use of mobile phones, wi-fi, bluetooth and other sources of EMF.

What is required is a change in mindset. I have found that once changes in diet and exercise are made the others are relatively eaay to bring on board into and overal lifestyle package. The biggest one is diet. It seems to represent the greatest personal growth challenge for almost all of us. We must replace lifelong habits with new ones by consciously shifting our values away from eating purely for taste to eating for health.

The road map to health

It can be useful to remind ourselves that experiencing a chronic disease is a lifestyle consequence and therefore the avoidance of chronic disease must be planned for pro-actively. These are all lifestyle choices that must be consciously made in order to ensure health when you really need it – as you get old.

It is not just the external environment that we must be concerned with, the internal environment for our cells is our blood and the quality of this environment is determined by our diet.

Also the negative effects of our food and lifestyle choices are compounding across the generations. Children inherit deficient bodies and immune systems as well as unhealthy lifestyle choices from their parents. We are now seeing third generation children being born with d...
