Natural Health Tips- Part one
Recently I wrote a booklet called 51 Ways to Stay Healthy Naturally. I will be posting excerpts from this booklet for the next several weeks:
Living a life that’s optimal and free of sickness does not have to be an overwhelming process. This booklet will show you a fairly painless way to make one healthy change at a time.
1. Get familiar with the health food stores in your area. Find out where they are located and what they carry. Read the labels on their products and ask questions. Not everything that is sold in a health food store is good for you but you may find that you are able to replace a lot of the items you use now with a healthier product.
2. Use air dried sea salt in place of regular table salt. Unrefined sea salt contains mineral elements that the body needs without the unhealthy additives found in regular salt. You can save money by buying the coarse salt and grinding it yourself.
3. Use butter rather then margarine. Organic is best. Butter is a natural food and is a source of vitamins, minerals and important fatty acids. Margarine is an unnatural substance and contains trans-fatty acids.
4. Eliminate or minimize the use of refined sugar (corn syrup, table sugar etc.) in your diet. Excessive use of refined sugar is linked to cardiovascular problems and cancer. It can also suppress your immune system and reduce your resistance against infectious disease.
Thanks for your post. I look forward to more posts and updates about your book. I actually use Superfood Nutrition called Living Fuel for all my nutrition. It takes the guess work out of everything.
