Why Holistic Health Is Only Possible With A Healthy Diet

The media reports it every day - and not just since a virus called Corona has dominated our lives: people are getting sicker and sicker. Despite extensive and increasingly expensive medical care, an epidemic seems to be spreading unstoppably across our country.

And it has absolutely nothing to do with Covid-19. It is the general chronic diseases that have increased so alarmingly quickly in recent years and continue to increase.

Our daily work with patients shows that diagnosis and therapy are becoming increasingly difficult. Today's illnesses deviate more and more from the usual clinical pictures. The causes are becoming increasingly complex. And the body's own regulation and self-healing systems are increasingly disrupted or even blocked. Often, even small amounts of stress cause the “full barrel” to overflow and trigger an illness. A variety of interacting stressful factors lead to this point, for example:

• the increasing environmental pollution,

• psychological overload at work and in free time,

• the overstimulation caused by (social) media,

• insufficient recovery periods,

• the massive increase in electromagnetic pollution from cell phones, wireless mice, microwaves, 5G etc.

• the denatured and genetically modified diet. We no longer talk about food, but only about food.

A Healthy Lifestyle – Not An “can” But A “must”

The most important factor in a healthy life is a healthy lifestyle. If a person deviates from this, sooner or later illness will occur. Then what has become disordered must be put back in order.

Only a patient whose lifestyle is once again conducive to health can hope for recovery. A sick person who does not want to return to a healthy lifestyle is difficult to help and cannot be cured. That's why a healthy lifestyle is the basis of every successful therapy and an absolute prerequisite for healing. It is not a “can” or “should”, but rather a “must”.

Food Is More Than Just Nutrition 

The times when food and drink were in harmony with nature and thus optimally served the human body are long gone. Refined eating habits gave rise to new recipes that were no longer based on the body's nutritional needs. In addition, the industrialization of production and processing pollutes our food and drinks with foreign substances.

New eating habits such as fast food have led to a one-sided diet, the result of which is a variety of deficiencies that are almost impossible to ignore. This increasing denaturation of nutrition has been observed and criticized by many well-known nutrition scientists and practitioners.

But they didn't just criticize, they also developed their own ideas and concepts about what an ideal diet should look like. The multitude of these recommendations brought increasing confusion to the nutritional landscape. This was promoted by constantly new diet suggestions and nutritional tips from more or less professional people. The result is that most people no longer know what to eat.

A Basic Guideline

Amidst the different, sometimes contradictory recommendations and regulations, there are some basic guidelines that must be followed when it comes to a healthy diet and which are also the basis of the diet within the therapeutic house.

The first thought is the simplest: think about the word food. Food is the means we need to live. They are life brokers. Food is alive in itself. But anything denatured, including anything heated in the microwave, is dead.

Imagine an apple that has ripened on the tree in the sun. If you eat it, you are consuming a food that combines all the biological power of an apple. But if you just put this apple in a microwave for 10 seconds, it will still look the same. If we were to analyze it chemically and physically, it would still consist of the same components, but this apple is biochemically and biophysically dead. The apple core of this apple will never sprout an apple tree again.

When a living apple is broken down in our intestines, all the energy of this apple is released and transferred to our life energy. When we break down a dead apple, we use energy to filter out at least some of the nutrients from the dead apple. We consume a food, but no longer a food. The apple is no longer the mediator of life.

Few Tips:

Refined sugar is a vitamin and mineral robber and is partly responsible for tooth decay and many other symptoms. Therefore, use it as sparingly as possible and instead use maple syrup, agave syrup, raw cane sugar, cold-spun honey, pear syrup or stevia.

Cow's milk often leads to allergic and inflammatory reactions - not just in infancy, but these often last a lifetime. For the human body, milk is not the great source of energy that it is portrayed to be. You can get along very well without cow's milk. And the calcium contained in milk can also be absorbed with other foods.

Cereals are an excellent source of energy, without a doubt. The morning fresh grain porridge is an unparalleled source of vitality: vitamins, enzymes, trace elements in abundance, and fiber is included. But grains - especially wheat - are also one of the strongest allergens. If the enzyme structure in the intestine is disturbed, it can become a major burden. So before you decide to put grains at the center of your diet, you should make sure you can actually tolerate them.

Fiber is extremely important for the human body. That's why every meal should contain a portion of raw vegetables and/or fruit. In general, the diet should be designed in such a way that the proportion of vegetables, fruits and raw foods in the diet is increased considerably.

And Last But Not Least :

For us humans, a good oil is not just a source of fuel, but it is a true elixir of life from which we  make (almost) anything to build our cells and our metabolism.
