Alternative Therapies | Healing With Wholefoods and Fasting
Today I’ll be discussing alternative therapies for diseases like cancer, heart disease and diabetes and what you can do to help prevent them!
What Really Causes Dis-Ease?
If we take a look at cancer – different cancers occur for different reasons. Sometimes, people have a predisposition to particular types of cancers, such as breast or colon. Other times, cancer can occur due to a deficient diet or poor lifestyle choices, such as drinking, smoking, and eating unnatural processed foods. In the case of predispository cancers, people need to adjust their diets to reflect whatever potential problem may occur down the line.
If for example, someone has a predisposition to liver cancer, then avoiding foods and liquids which are taxing on the liver’s ability to function is advised. This might sound logical to you, but it’s crazy how many people don’t take these precautionary measures – even when their life is at stake!
According to the American Cancer Society, two thirds of cancer can be avoided by simply:
1. Not Smoking
2. Avoiding Poor Lifestyle and Diet Choices
So by simply not smoking, adopting a high raw wholefood plant based diet and getting moderate exercise you can wipe out two thirds of all cancer triggers. TWO THIRDS!
One of the largest studies ever conducted on human beings, looking at where diseases like cancer, heart disease and diabetes come from, is called “The China Study”. A book about it was written by Dr T. Colin Campbell and his son Thomas. I highly suggest you grab that book and read it because it will give you some really clear awakenings about where these (and MANY other diseases) come from. It clearly points out that the number one factor in any of these diseases is diet – it’s what we are putting into our bodies!
In fact, it shows that diet is not only a preventative measure, it also has the ability to put the disease into remission! So, if you already have cancer, the principles that would have prevented it in the first place are the EXACT same things that you need to do to put it into remission.
But What Can I Do?
So, if you have had a diagnosis of a serious disease, what should you do?
You will probably have doctors telling you that you need to start this or that treatment straight away! Well, first of all, you need to slow down and take a deep breath and understand that this disease didn’t show up in your body overnight. And, for most people, there will be time to make decisions about what to do. Of course, occasionally there will be a situation where a tumour in the colon, for example, isn’t discovered until it’s so huge it’s nearly killing you. In that situation you might need some form of emergency surgery to save your life. And I believe that’s what the medical system is there for – emergencies!
BUT, if you went to see the doctor feeling great for the most part but were just having a few issues and then he gives you a major diagnosis and wants to schedule surgery right now … I would say just stop, breathe and start to think about the things you can do to really clean your body out so it can heal.
Remember, this situation didn’t happen overnight and you have options.
Fasting - The Greatest Remedy
This is where the brilliant wisdom of fasting comes in! Fasting has been talked about for thousands of years by people like Plato, Pythagorus, Leonardo da Vinci, Hippocrates and many other physicians and healers of the past. And over the past 15 years I have personally seen many people heal a LOT of different (often very serious) conditions with fasting and wholefoods.
If you are facing a serious health diagnosis and you want to do an extended fast in a safe and supported environment, you should definitely check out my Tolman Health Healing Hub! The Healing Hub is facilitated by my Tolman Health Coaches and they have extensive knowledge and experience in fasting for healing. It’s an amazing option for people looking to heal from chronic disease whilst being completely supported. Or if you just want to do an extended fast for any reason at all!
So when it comes to health, it comes down to simplicity. Get back to the basics! If we work with Mother Nature and her principles, we heal ourselves. And when we go against Mother Nature and start taking pharmaceuitcals, drinking lifelss drinks and eating lifeless foods, THAT is what perpetuates the disease we have.
It really comes down to choices – which one is it going to be? The hamburger? The dead, chemical-laden foods? Or the fresh fruits and vegetables? Simple choices that we make every single day!
The most important thing when it comes to avoiding and healing disease is preparation, and preparation is found in knowledge. With the right knowledge, you’ll be better able to make healthy, informed decisions so that hopefully, the subject of cancer or heart disease or diabetes (or any of the other diseases that plague our modern world) is something you never have to worry about!
I hope you enjoyed this enlightening blog on disease, and appreciate the role that good health can play in preventing it.
Thanks for reading!
