An introduction to the Aspects of Health

Ever wonder why someone can survive a disease that many others have died from? What makes that person different? Why do some people just never seem to get sick? This phenomena isn't as complicated as it might appear. Disease resistance is almost directly related to the strength of the individuals immune system. There are many factors that make up the strength of an individuals immune system. Yes, everyone is different and unique and we are all born with different factors that affect our immune health, including genetic predisposition, but that is not to say we can not all take steps to improve our immune strength. If you have a weak immune system or you find yourself sick more often than you would like it is important that you find ways to strengthen it. There are many ways to bring strength to ones immune system, many more ways than could be covered fully in writing. I encourage to go beyond this material and search for your own ways to view your bodies health and strength. If anyone has ever told you that there is no improving your immune strength or that you will always be sick, even if it was a doctor, they were likely wrong. "Where there's a will there's a way" and that is most certainly true when it comes to your body and the conditions facilitated there in.

There are many ways to improve the your immune strength as well as the overall health of your body. Some of them you may already know, but maybe you haven't fully realized their importance. Some of the key factors of health is food we consume (this is my primary focus), exercising (stretching, jogging, walking, martial arts, yoga), another aspect to consider are exterior or stress factors (work, home, friends, recreational activities). In this material we will focus on the role that the foods we eat play in making up the over all well being of our bodies.  "You are what you eat" and therefore it is important to know what you are eating and how it may be affecting you.

Why is this information important to you? Knowing about how to fuel your body properly will lead to a longer, happier, and even more fulfilling life. The information contained in this blog does not come from the authors knowledge, but it is a compilation of 1000's of years of health studies, involving the lives of many thousands of individuals. Herbal medicine  and the role of how whole foods affects health has been based down from our acceptors for many, many generations and as they were passed down, so to was the wisdom of their healing properties or the disease they may bring.  This information is invaluable and is in no way to be surpassed in the name of "modern science" and short term trials, even a 20 year long trial is nothing compared to the 10's of thousands of years of wisdom passed down from our ancestors.  Throughout the blog you can expect to find information in regards to whole food nutrition, Living with your body, sources of health information, healthy and fun recipes, and even some politically motivated articles.
