Health Maintenance
Balancing and Maintaining Health
Modern-day medical knowledge is expanding rapidly, and the seemingly impossible can become possible at any moment in time. Yet, even with all this ever-expanding knowledge, chronic illnesses and degenerative diseases are on the rise. Suddenly, the average life expectancy is no longer increasing, and people in their last 20 years of life are plagued more and more by declining health and poor quality of life. From the age of 40 and onward, the likelihood of the seven deadly diseases rises dramatically.
Some WHO Statistics
According to the World Health Organization (WHO):
By 2030, over 20 million people will die from cardiovascular diseases such as heart disease and stroke. These deadly issues are projected to remain among the leading causes of death.
Cancer is an ever-increasing cause of death worldwide. Furthermore, about 30% of cancer deaths are associated with five leading dietary and behavioral risks, which include:
- High body mass index BMI)
- Low dietary vegetable and fruit intake
- Sedentary lifestyle (lack of physical activity)
- Tobacco use
- Alcohol use
Obesity has more than doubled worldwide since 1980. Additionally, 65% of the global population live in countries where obesity and overweight-related factors kill more people than underweight issues.Worldwide, over 35 million people have dementia, and there are nearly 8 million new cases yearly. Ultimately, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, stroke, arthritis, osteoporosis, and Alzheimer’s disease will send millions of people to early graves. Obviously, things are going terribly wrong. However, many medical communities are acting as if all of these diseases are part of the “normal” aging process. And while that’s true to a point, there is nothing “normal” about degenerative disease. Tragically, many of these deaths are unnecessary and avoidable.
You shape your destiny by what you think and do
Is it worth living longer if you have debilitating and painful arthritis or you’re so obese that you can’t get around easily? If you are going to live to a hundred years old, then you’ll want to do the second half of the century in good shape. You’ve got to be able to awaken every day and orient your thoughts and behavior towards the most healthy life possible. Perhaps then you can live to 100 and beyond, without the disease and pain that is generally thought to come with old age.
The human body is an amazing self-maintaining, self-repairing, and self-correcting organism. As long as we keep it healthy and in balance, this will continue to be the case. Unfortunately, many people fail to either recognize the importance of this or lack the necessary information on how to achieve optimal health and balance naturally. Natural strategies can be easy to follow, highly effective, and quite affordable. These are the mechanisms for recovering, maintaining, and enhancing health.
Natural strategies to maintain and balance health have been lost to a society that relies on fast and overly-processed food, “miracle” potions, and weight loss scams for healthy living. This is why so many people are seeking the fountain of youth in a pill. Indeed, there’s a lot of misinformation regarding what it takes to be healthy, and you need to discover the health secrets to help you as a unique individual to stay young and disease-free.
