1. Change progressively your habits
It is no more natural to be healthy : the industrial food made of cheap low quality ingredients, the stress of modern life, the various pollutions and poisons ingested by the body result in many diseases including autoimmune diseases and cancer.
Enjoying a healthier way of life is still possible, but it requires personal knowledge and practice.
It is a long struggle to improve one's health, and one has to cope with many difficulties.
The best way to proceed is to learn and change things PROGRESSIVELY, both for psychological reasons (your habits) and for physiological reasons (the body does not like abrupt changes: changing too rapidly may result in other diseases).
This essay is just another aspect of my experience and nothing more. It is intended for informative purposes only and not to serve as/replace treating physician nor to render medical/other advice. And if you decide to adopt some of the practices below, change things progressively : it is at your own risks.



2.Eat Simple Food:
The human body is GENETICALLY designed to live in nature, where the only food available is simple food : fruits, vegetables, eggs, fishes, ...
There are no pizzas or hamburgers in nature : these meals are too fat, with to many salt, to many additional spices, too few vitamins, ...
In my opinion, after having tried dozens of diets during 14 years, It's better to eat simple food : one meal with bananas and apples, one meat with green vegetables and eggs, one meal with fish and French beans, ...
Human and animal bodies have difficulties to cope with industrial foods: it takes millions of years for the genetic code to change : the body, the digestive system is not and won't be fully adapted to industrial cooked food, resulting for millions of people suffering from obesity, tumors, cancer, arthritis, autoimmune diseases ...
When one has understood this issue and want to change things, one should PROGRESSIVELY:
- Reduce or suppress additional consumption of salt, oil, sugar, chocolate, coffee, cookies, pastry makings, candies, sweeten, jam, honey, sodas, sauces, mustard, alcohol, aperitifs, wine, beer, cider...
- Eat simple foods, organic if possible (organic eggs are better than industrial eggs for example, ...)
b) Simply cooked:
Cooking too much, at too high temperature is bad.
During the cooking, molecular transformations occur : A+B-->C. In the past million years, the digestive system has learned to digest A and B, because such molecules were widespread in nature (raw fruits, fishes ...), but does not know what to do with C, the new molecule created by cooking. This result in various diseases: obesity, cancer, ... These noxious molecules are called Maillard molecules, you can see them when the color of the food changes to brown or black (caramel, barbecue, ...). These molecules are strongly linked to cancer:(caramel, barbecue, ...). These molecules are strongly linked to cancer:
Do Maillard products carry potential risks ?Grilled veggies and cancer Why no cooked food ?
On the other hand, cooking destroys many vitamins the body needs.
As a consequence, it's better to eat raw food as often as possible : most fruits should be eaten raw (bananas, apples, peaches, ...), as well as some vegetables (green salad for example), and even some fish occasionally, if you're sure of the origin.
Yet, there are many cases where it is better to cook food SIMPLY : simply means cooking food in a way that protect vitamins and prevent the creation of Maillard molecules.
The simpler way to cook is using boiling water, or sometimes the vapor given off by boiling water.
It's better to cook meat, eggs, and some vegetables this way. (because of mad caw, bird flu, ... it's unsafe to eat meat or eggs raw).
It's also useful to cook a little because it prepares the digestion : there are many molecules in vegetables, and even eggs and meat, that are difficult to digest. Cooking simply will save most of the vitamins, and usefully start the digestion of many other molecules.
Eating 70 % raw is difficult, requires a lot of precision for various reasons and should not be achieved without an in depth study; read paragraphs 7, 8, 9 to know more.
c) Eat Simple quantity :
It's a dramatic issue that many western people eat so much food : when you're fat, you can't work as much as slim chinese people, you can't do many things, you can't think as quickly as you could, ...
YOU SHOULD ALWAYS EAT LESS THAN YOU COULD.
It means one should eat enough to have good energy, but should always eat less than the body could.
The digestion is better, you feel more resistant to illnesses, ...

Additional FAQS :Intended for informative purposes only and not to serve as/replace treating physician nor to render medical/other advice
Why is my digestion bad ?
If the digestion is bad, ask yourself :- wasn't the food too fat, to mixed ? (pizzas, hamburgers, candies, ...) Prefer eating simple foods.
- a food allergy to a special food may have occurred: then do not eat these food any more, or try to cook is in vapor or boiling water more carefully ?
- didn't you eat too much food ? Then reduce the quantity ?- was the quality of the food good ? If not sure, change.


3. Get More Rest ! People work too much and rest during too little time. The universe, the world, the human body is balanced between male and female, activity and rest, day and night.
If you don't sleep enough, you induce disequilibria in your life. This may result in exhaustion, nervousness, and other diseases.


4. Drink Quality Water:About seventy percent of the human body is made of water. To function properly the body requires several quarts/litters of water per day.
Here is the way to provide your body with the best water possible:
1. Check the quality of the water you are usually drinking: if the quality is good, if the vast majority of your neighbors drink this water, it will be ok. If not, choose at your supermarket some drinking or mineral water (select water with a low mineral concentration).
We'll now filter and energize this water.
2. Buy a BRITA Pitcher at your local supermarket or here : this original water filtration system eliminates 98% of the Lead and reduce Chlorine (taste and odor), Copper, and Mercury that may be present in your tap water.
Feel the taste difference before and after filtration...
3. Take a piece of scotch tape and stick one or two MAGNETS to the exterior side of this pitcher, so the magnets can energize the water. Experience has shown that magnetized water contributes and helps in the treatment of many diseases. It is especially beneficial in treating digestive, nervous, urinary disorders, and chronic degenerative diseases.
You can now provide your body with a very high quality drinking water.



5. Practice Yoga and balance your energies
Here are a few basic yoga positions that can be easily practiced once a day:



Look carefully at the drawings and try to do the same (not during digestion and ask a yoga teacher if you have diseases). Keep the position one minute or two, stay calm, breath deeply.
Of course, a comprehensive yoga program is better : click here and here to learn.
On the other hand, it is of a great importance to pacify emotions. For that purpose, learn meditation and work on energies thanks to alchemy (read the other articles of this site to learn alchemy).
