It is necessary to be honest with one”s self
It is necessary to be honest with one”s self. Face life courageously and
honestly. If you do, you will soon realize that the physical and mental
ills from which you suffer are mostly of your own making. Then you can
choose whether to let them continue or to end them, but if you choose to
remain ill, bear your cross uncomplainingly, for you have no right to
afflict others with your self-imposed sufferings.

Many babies show signs of maternal overfeeding within a few hours or
days of birth
Many babies show signs of maternal overfeeding within a few hours or
days of birth. One of the common signs is the discharge from the nose.
This is aggravated by overfeeding the infant. And thus is laid the
foundation, perhaps, for a lifelong catarrh. In due time various
diseases such as rickets, swollen glands, formerly called scrofulous,
mumps, measles, scarlet fever, diphtheria, pimples, eczema and cholera
infantum, make their appearance. Parents have been taught to look for
these diseases. They have been told that they belong to childhood. This
is a libel on nature, for she tends in the direction of health.

A Healthy Digestive System
It seems that, despite all the wonders of civilisation, and the breakthrus in science and technology, we do most to guarantee a healthy digestive system when we return to the diet of primitive man.
This was mostly cereals, berries, roots, and nuts, with the occasional treat of some fish and meat.
The essential difference between this diet, and the typical diet today, is that it was very high in fiber, whereas the modern diet is low in fiber.
Fiber is that part of a plant which passes thru the intestine without being digested and absorbed, leading to efficient and healthy functioning of the bowels.
Lack of fiber in the diet leads to many health and digestive disorders - diverticulosis, appendicitis, haemorrhoids etc.
If your diet is deficient in fiber, do not rush into an extreme diet of high-fiber foods. Make the change slowly, so your digestive system can adjust without any side-effects.
