a)
Nutritious meals, i.e., appropriate amounts of
nutritious foods and minimum amounts of , junk" foods. Nutritious foods include:
Fresh, whole, raw or slightly cooked fruits and vegetables; whole grains; pure water; soy
protein and healthy animal protein. Healthy animal protein is animal protein that is low
in fat and has not been fed steroids, antibiotics, and other growth enhancing drugs.
b)
Moderate exercise, both aerobic and muscle
strengthening.
c)
Adequate sleep with no sleep disorders such as sleep
apnea.
d)
Medications and nutritional supplements. The
medications may be needed to combat disease or pain. Medications are usually temporary and
are to ease symptoms while the body uses nutrients to repair and rebuild itself.
Supplements are needed to build healthy cells to replace the diseased cells. The
supplements are intended to supplement a healthy diet, not to take the place of it!
e)
Elimination of special problems: being overweight
(borderline overweight or obese), smoker, diabetes, etc.
f)
Genetic factors may be subdued or
reversed with an overall approach to health.
All these factors influence a person's wellness and
quality of life. No one factor will provide optimum wellness to the exclusion of the
others.
