You may have noticed that the diet recommended for arthritics is one in which all devitalized foods are “conspicuous by their absence.” No white flour, no refined sugar, no white rice for the arthritic—the same rule should apply to the diets of everyone, ailing or healthy. There is a “cocktail” that has specific value in the diet for arthritis. It is a “cocktail” of either celery or cucumber juice, or, for a change, half of each may be combined. Because of its high sodium content, this “cocktail should be taken liberally, since sodium acts as a solvent on the calcareous deposits forming in the afflicted joints. (Sodium, in fact, is the most important of all minerals in the treatment of arthritis. ToningThe skincare products embrace cosmetics like Aloe Fleur de Jouvence, toners and astringents which principally incorporates alcohol and water. It would be to the definite advantage of all arthritics to use a sodium concentrate—especially is this recommended if enough of the “sodiumrich foods” are not included in the daily diet.) Another good idea is to add the juice of a lime or lemon to a glass of distilled water and use this beverage for quenching the thirst.
If results are not immediately evident, do not become discouraged. Along with good diet, adequate rest and a relaxed mind, you will also need large doses of patience and optimism. Yours is a stubborn disease, one which has taken months, even years, to develop. While neither I, nor anyone else, can promise you a “cure,” still I do want to emphasize that the general treatment program outlined above has accomplished encouraging results for hundreds of arthritics. So why not be faithful—and cheerful—and give this regimen a chance to do the same for you?
Nutrition in a Nutshell.
Especially ready for topical utility to moisturise, soothe and situation, Aloe Vera Gelly is a thick Gel containing humectants and moisturisers. The do’ s and don’t’s of eating for health. LIKE the man who defined love as “not beating your wife,” nutrition is as much a matter of what not to do as what is proper. Nutrition is the science of keeping the body adequately fueled with the correct foods. Although eating should also entail the idea of pleasure, the chief importance of food is to keep the body cells healthy. A cell cannot distinguish whether the protein it receives came from filet mignon or from beef stew; neither can the cell appreciate the gastronomic artistry of a fourlayer cake piled high with frosting. In fact, if the cell could speak our language, it would probably shout, “For your health’s sake, stop choking me with all those sugars and starches and send me more protein I It’s not carbohydrates that make me happy, it’s amino acids!” Because our cells were created in the knowledge of the “do’s and don’t's” of good nutrition, it is about time some basis of understanding is reached between the mind that selects and prepares the food and the cell for whom the food is intended.
