Water Fasting Facts
Water Fasting Facts
Very few humans ever take a moment to learn about the basic functioning of the body, never mind the self healing abilities which makes it superior to any man made substance. Often valuable time is wasted because of misinformation, I wanted to share some Water Fasting Facts to increase awareness and raise the vibe.
When you buy a car, you get a users manual, and if something goes wrong, you flick through the index, find a solution and wha-lha… find the suitable fix, and fix it…what about the ExtraOrdinary Body and vehicle for our souls to travel in for this lifetime? Do you have a user manual ?? … thing is in it’s extra-ordinary design, it has a built in ability to heal itself, all you have to do is give it the opportunity (and some time).
Early in this century, John Tilden, M.D. (1851-1940), built on the work of other pioneering physicians such as Jennings and devoted his life to teaching the public how to maintain health… he stated: “nature returns to normal when innervating habits are given up. There are no cures in the sense generally understood… if has a tobacco heart…. What is the cure? Remove the tobacco of course. What will cure? Drugs? No! Removing the cause. Every so-called disease is built within the mind and body by enervating habits. A fast, rest in bed and the giving up of enervating habits, mental and physical, will allow nature to eliminate the accumulated toxin; then if enervating habits are given up, and rational living habits adopted, health will come back to stay. The medical world has been looking for a remedy to cure disease, not withstanding the obvious fact that nature needs no remedy – she only needs an opportunity to exercise her own prerogative to self healing” Herbert Shelton, D.C., N.D. 1895-1985 built on the works of the early medical doctors and wrote prolifically from the 1920s on, in his own self published magazines, and through the publication of 12 books on the subject of Health and Healing. Dr Shelton’s Health School in San Antonio, Texas, improved and restored the health of more than 30 000 people through fasting and natural food diets. The body is simply designed to heal itself when the proper environment for healing is established and all obstacles to healing, or stressors are removed.
Our bodies were designed to function from birth to an uneventful natural death. But our chance of living in our modern society and then dying from a natural aging process is close to zero. Disease is so much a part of our way of life (and thinking) it is considered normal by most, and an expected result of Life. The thing to remember is that people do not develop chronic degenerative illnesses through bad luck. Disease is developed through years and years of nutritional and other stresses on the human system. When these causes are sufficiently removed, people can get well, throw away their medications, and avoid unnecessary, expensive, and invasive medical care. It is not a aging that makes us sick; it is the insistent stressors we place on ourselves that continue their insidious work over the years and eventually cause damage to the body. Degenerative or chronic disease is earned.
Our bodies follow strict biological laws of causation.. If we feed ourselves the wrong fuel, or are exposed to Toxic substances, if we do not get sufficient rest or sleep, are chronically unhappy or under chronic emotional stress, our body will inevitably express some malfunction called disease. (dis-ease) Of course, medications can be life-saving in emergencies and in case of serious infections, such as pneumonia or meningitis and many others, there is great purpose in medicating when needed.
However, the modern drug approaches to chronic, degenerative illnesses fail to offer a safe, effective solution for most chronic medical problems. With the exception of illness caused by direct injury, virulent poisoning or defects present prior to birth, internal physiology and cellular biochemistry determine an individual’s level of health and capabilities.
Four things which will make it easy to understand and prove why water fasting can lead to cellular rejuvenation and prolong the lifespan; (1-the Cellular-Congestion Theory of Aging. 2-The Free-Radical Theory of Aging. 3-The Cross-Linkage Theory of Aging. 4-Genetic-Code-Error Theory of Aging.) What these theories all have in common, is that we age prematurely, when we place our body under stress, and drive our cellular machinery to overwork, attempting to process and eliminate essential waste. These theories, because they are based on modern scientific knowledge of cells, combined with experimental studies on both animals and humans, indicate that food intake is the most crucial factor that determines aging. When we contract a viral infection and lose our appetites., nature is telling us to fast. It is a means the body has of powerfully exciting white blood cell activity and releasing more immune system modulators, such as interferon, thus enabling the body to more quickly and effectively recover.
Our bodies follow the law of cause and effect. If you provide the cause of outstanding health, you get outstanding health. If you provide the causes of disease, you get disease. The general population is constantly and continuously bombarded by health information, generated by the health profession, drug companies and food manufacturers, whose intention is to maintain the status quo.
The holistic practitioners and alternative and complementary physician groups, and the suppliers of Vitamins and other Natural Remedies and supplements, add to the giant net of confusion. Unfortunately the average consumer becomes more confused than ever. Everyone claims to have the ‘Magic Cure’… The sobering facts are undeniable: ‘the cure’ doesn’t actually exist, so long as the cause is permitted to continue unchecked. In reality, cure occurs only when the body has rid itself of disease-causing factors and has had a chance to recuperate from the ill effects. Optimal healthy goals for true healing requires commitment and responsibility to changes which cause dis-ease and illness.
Through water-fasting, individuals are giving their body the opportunity to catch up on elimination of retained and excessive toxic waste, thus raising themselves to new levels of superior health. The laws of nature will never change it always has been and always will be more effective to remove calls and allow the body’s self reparative powers to have their way and tried to add treatments while cause continues unchanged and removed.
