- Few people know it, but the ground provides a subtle electric signal that maintains health
- We don’t all have the ability to sing out over a racing train, but we do have the power
- In looking for people to hire, you look for three qualities:
- It is nutrient-rich food the places a sparkle in the eye, luster in the hair,
- The desire that guides me in all I do is the desire to harness the forces of nature
- To be free from pain through an injection or a pill has nothing to do with
- We live and boast of what we own; We die . . . and only get a stone.
- The superior doctor prevents sickness; The mediocre doctor attends to impending sickness;
- Constipated despite a real food diet, detox, exercise, water (and more)?
- A man too busy to take care of his health is like a mechanic too busy to take care of his tools.
Sleep Deprivation and Diabetes
A good night’s sleep can produce more than sweet dreams. It can help us turn back the clock, detox our brain, help prevent weight gain and reduce pain. While sleepless nights have the opposite effect – they speed up the aging process and according to studies, poor sleep is linked to metabolic health problems, one of which includes Type 2 Diabetes.
I know what it’s like to be sleep deprived for more than a decade. Working construction for 7 years didn’t help. But, in order to beat the Arizona heat, we had to start work anywhere from 10PM, midnight and onwards to 6AM. Then work 14+/- hours a day. Talk about sleep deprivation – most nights I slept 4-6 hours. The upside is… I now LOVE my mornings! The downside? It wreaked havoc on my body, hormones and complexion (in the form of melasma). Thankfully, being diligent with diet and detox are paying off on skin issues. And other than a short bout of anti-depressants (back in the early 90’s) that put an extra 15 pounds on me, weight gain has never been an issue for me. Sadly, this is not the case for many, and sleep should not be considered the only culprit.
Reversing dis-ease and losing weight can be easy, but you’ve got to give your body WHAT it needs, WHEN it needs it. Our internal clock will tick longer if we do. And just as our vehicle gets plenty of rest and regular oil and filter changes, our body needs that tenfold. Because taking it for granted, neglecting it, and abusing it will soon show those guilty of these that they are not invincible. SHIT HAPPENS. Time waits for nobody – we can either live fully alive and well or die a slow suicide.
