New year resolution By SITERI SAUBVyAKCACTOALDOORA
IT’S a new year! The start of a new chapter, a new direction, a new mindset, a new approach to health and life, and of course with many vowing new year resolutions, new beginnings!
Yet all too often I witness so many folks slip slide and fade away from following through with rededicated health and lifestyle resolutions that are made at the start of a New Year.
Fully comprehending how our individual food and lifestyle choices drastically affect our decision making, our thought process and our attitudes, sheds light on why most struggle to stick to such goals .
The many health and fitness claims that are out there today, are all too often fads and trends. Many jump on the bandwagon without truly understanding the real issues and needs at the core of true health and wellness. It’s no wonder there’s so much confusion and unachieved health, wellness and fitness goals.
As a former competitive Olympic weightlifter, now an advanced sports and exercise nutritionist advocating native original power plants for optimal sustenance and strength, superior performance enhancement, heightened energy and longevity, let me shed some light. Starting with one simple fact - You cannot argue with nature! Nature, creation, is never wrong.
It provides everything that we need. It’s purest original form will forever enhance and empower the body, unlike any other food source on earth! It’s that simple!
Throughout the past four weeks in the Power Plants of the Pacific article series, I have written about the power of the raw cucumber - nature’s natural steroid; the raw or sunfired okra - a supreme vegetable; the watermelon and its seeds - an exceptional detoxifier and relief for D.O.M.S; the pawpaw - a superior alkaline superfruit; the coconut -natures power weapon; wild native medicinal plants and flora, just to name a few. I addressed how they provide electric levels of heightened energy and optimal health. Let’s take a further dive into this.
Remembering, electric foods are alkaline foods, found in nature, which help the body to heal and nourish itself. They are not hybrid, they are not genetically modified, and they are non-irradiated.
We now know all disease begins in the gut! Death begins in the colon. You can’t hide from the effects of the food and drink you are consuming, it will catch up with you one way or another!
We are programmed to believe we are meant to eat three meals a day. Contrary to popular belief, this is not so and here’s why. For starters, to be able to eat that many meals a day, you have to make sure you have at least three bowel movements daily.
Taking in three meals a day, which adds up to 21 meals in a week, and with only one bowel movement a day, means 14 meals are backed up in your colon, think about that!
Eating three meals daily, also leaves your system under constant stress and pressure to digest, it just simply cannot keep up. So eventually an overload will occur, and so too will disease, illness, skin issues, inflammation, NCDs, allergies, you name it!
This is even more of a reason to ensure your food choice is high vibrational life force food to guarantee cleansing and bowel regularity in order to avoid disease and intestinal clogging.
“Disease is made, not caught.”
I’ve previously touched on the horrifying fact that the average person has up to 20 pounds/9kg of indigestible rotting and decaying food inside their gut. Most are walking around with a minimum of seven undigested meals inside the gut because of mucus forming acidic foods (such as meat, dairy and wrongly cooked foods).
Also, did you know, allergies are actually a result of a backed up lymphatic system from acid and mucus build up, which can be 100 per cent healed! Detoxify the lymphatic system by adopting an electric high vibrational lifestyle of life force foods, just as I have been informing in each week’s article with Power Plants of the Pacific, direct from native natural flora, and see the results for yourself!
How our individual food and lifestyle choices drastically affect our decision making, our thought process and our attitudes? Processed drink and food is just like a drug, it kills the taste buds, manipulates and tricks the brain into believing that it needs such foods.
Poor food choices, junk food, hooks us then dulls our sense of taste. The molecular makeup of our tongue actually alters when we eat such certain unhealthy foods. When we eat too much bad fats we experience acute inflammation, as seen in obesity.
This inflammation prevents taste buds from regenerating as quickly and dulls the sense of taste, creating a vicious cycle. These desensitised taste buds make unhealthy people crave the wrong foods, overeat harmful high-fat foods and less likely to lose excess body fat or reach their health goals.
There is also a lot of destructive information and wrong fixation out there where protein is concerned! High protein diets breed the most destructive kind of parasites, which heavily interfere with the brain and body’s ability to function correctly and at optimal health and performance levels. An example is the proteus, an acid type parasite which thrives in the body when it becomes overly acidic.
They decompose proteins or weakened cells. When a healthy cell is living in an alkaline environment, you will never see this type of parasite. High protein diets over acidify the body causing damage to the liver, pancreas, and especially the kidneys.
The function of such organs, especially the kidney, is vital for removing heavy metals and toxins out of the body. Imagine the state of a person’s insides where the kidneys are not functioning to filter such poisons out of their system! Again this enforces the essential need for choosing life force living and healing native foods!
High protein diets also create body odor because of an excess of undigested proteins that are stored interstitially in the body’s
tissues. The smell your body gives off, body odor or natural body smell in general, attracts or repels, for instance - insects.
Mosquitoes are attracted to mucus and acid, they can smell it in the blood, just think about that for a moment! Your smell will either repel or attract, the wrong people or the right people into your life. It is all affected by your food choices!
What you put into your body will either exit naturally as intended or will build up and be stored, literally becoming more and more putrid, which in turn can cause a stench!
When we fill our bodies with acidic mucus forming foods (meat, dairy, harmful cooking oils and salts, refined sugar, chemically laden foods, junk foods, fast foods, fried foods, animal flesh thought of as proteins — “animal protein” causes a buildup of plaque in the arteries leading to heart disease), we are literally setting ourselves up for an early grave.
Our food choices even affect our life choices in subconscious and unintentional ways since we emit or ‘give off’ body odors and vibrational energy based on what we eat.
More often than not, we are not operating at our fullest potential of choice and action. What is festering inside us, inside our gut, alters our thought patterns, our moods, our choices and our lives.
We are literally attracting life or death through our food choices! Choosing correct foods purifies the body and enables awakening on an optimal level which also aligns us more closely with The Creator.
As an athlete with a background in gymnastics, dance, Olympic weightlifting, diving and athletics, what I’ve discovered regarding the real truth about protein will shock most from what they have been led to believe as true.
“Animal protein,” which many have been programmed to automatically accept as the holy grail of muscle building, can be detrimental to health, as noted above.
However, knowing plants to be the highest protein sources, here’s something to consider - muscle is made of protein, protein is made of essential amino acids, essential amino acids are produced by fruits & plants (they are synthesized only by plants), so muscle is best made by fruits & plants!
Listen to your body! Eat when you are hungry, until satisfied, not overfull. I tend to break-fast daily around 11am. Filling my body, my temple, the gift I have been given, with the highest vibrational foods on the planet, Raw Fruits! An absolute eye opening topic I will also be touching on in the next few weeks. The unmatched dominating super power of Raw Fruits!
Power Plants, and I’m talking about native pure natural original unadulterated plant food sources, actually hold the key to providing the body with all it requires enabling next level thriving and awakening.
From the average person, to the aspiring athlete, from the professional athlete to our children and the elderly. We need to focus on providing the body with the minerals it is made up of, that’s the key. Native power plants automatically do exactly that for our body, and as we have discovered in these series, Fiji is thriving in abundance with such flora!
I will also be touching on the supreme importance of pure water choice in the coming weeks too, a must read! Until next time, make your New You Health Resolution count with Power Plants of the Pacific!
