FIT FOR LIFEA guide to personal health

The media today sends us subliminal messages…

…on what we ought to look like…

…They neglect to mention the need to FEEL good!

WHY DIETS DON’T WORK?

• It is a temporary goal

• It is sabotaged once the goalis reached

• It is mentally, spiritually, physically,and emotionally draining

BY THE WAY, WHAT IS THE ONE THING YOU THINK ABOUT WHILE DIETING?

FOOD!!!

Appropriation(noon-8pm)-Eating and digesting

Assimilation(8pm-4am)

-Absorption and use

Elimination(4am-noon)

-Body waste and food debris

We need to forget diets……and learn how our body works!!!

The Natural Body Cycle

The cycle works at its best when:1. We eat only FRUITS before noon andnever right after meals:

HOW LONG TO WAIT AFTER EATING OTHER FOOD BEFORE YOU CAN AGAIN EAT FRUIT

FOOD TIME TO WAITSalad or raw vegetables 2 hours

Properly combined meal, without flesh 3 hours

Properly combined meal, with flesh 4 hours

Any improperly combined meal 8 hours

2. When we properly combine our meals:

Steak and Potatoestogether

Steak and Vegetables Potatoes and Vegetables

*70% of each meal should be VEGETABLESAnd FRUITS and only 30% concentrated food.

**When eating two concentrated foods together (steakand potatoes) the food doesn’t digest properly.

ONLY THEN WILL WE LOOK AND FEEL THE WAY WE OUGHT TO FEEL!
