Chemistry, Nutritional Supplements Or Whole Foods - TO KEEP medical Tripod, Body-Mind-Spirit
Increasingly, as if you will find a "new" discovery parade for the latest cure-all, probiotics have come again to the forefront. As I browse the varying articles and studies, I'm struck by what lengths afield we have result from normal, common sense.

So as to maintain a healthy body, there is a tripod of health: body, mind, and spirit. Knock out one leg of that stool, and the stool topples over. Probiotics, diet, health supplements address only the "body" leg of the health tripod. So let's start there.
Anything taken externally, whether it is natural or medical (chemical or surgical) in support of the physical, has only ever been intended as temporary support until we've regained or achieved the necessary consciousness to support complete and perfect health; much as you might use a crutch to recuperate from a broken leg. Once the leg is healed, we throw the crutch away once we should throw the supplements and medications away.

The body knows how exactly to be well and healthy, as this is its natural and inherent state. Think of all of the times you've had a cold, or the flu or perhaps a cut or bruise. They always go away. The body, created by Infinite Intelligence, does not need to learn how to be well, but rather is always striving to return to health, its normal set-point. Our job, as a conscious human being, is to make the options - all of our choices - that support Life. In other words choices which are probiotic.

These choices, if we are living naturally and following our internal prompts, always feel great, fun, joyful, and delicious. Your body, itself, tells us what it requires with respect to nutrition; and we, if we are listening and aware, then eat those foods. Your body tells us when it is tired and needs rest; if we have been listening and living naturally, we fall asleep and awaken refreshed. The body tells us when it is cold; and if we have been listening, we go inside, don a coat or sit by the fire. Your body tells us when we are full; if we are listening, we stop eating, pleasantly satiated. The body due to its Innate Intelligence - the Life Force that enlivens it, is constantly directing us if we are listening.

This same Innate Intelligence or Life Force exists in every living things: animal, vegetable and mineral. It simply may be the "spirit" leg of the heath tripod. So it is essential that we pay attention to the still small voice within guiding us in every things, including health, always towards our good.

The "mental" component of the tripod is where all the trouble begins and ends. The human mind using its hubris and arrogance believes that it is the infinite intelligence instead of our spirit Infinite Intelligence (knowing). The human mind is what confounds and complicates everything, over-shouting the still small voice every chance it gets. The human mind will argue with the information of Innate Intelligence that people don't have time and energy to eat, or we can't afford to eat balanced diet, or that we don't have time and energy to be home resting. The human mind will argue a vitamin supplement is really a quick fix, a "professional" knows more than I really do; that in a choice between ethics and money, money wins. The human mind will tell you firmly to stay in the work your hate, as the money is good; and it'll tell you to take the "safe" road, because it is afraid and lives in the land of Lack. These are the decisions that we make each day that lead us into life styles and relationships which are as toxic to the body and chemicals are.

For example, as science attempts to unravel the secrets of good nutrition and health, they omit or ignore or discount the concept of Infinite Intelligence or Life Force, because they hardly understand It and cannot quantify It. Therefore, they think that by isolating certain nutrients, that the benefits of that nutrient are complete in relationship to the biological body and cells. For example, scientists study, let's say, Vitamin C. They isolate it out from its original declare that it is within, let's say, an orange. They identify it by its chemical composition and name it Vitamin C of a particular type. Then a nutritional company or perhaps a drug company will duplicate that chemical complex and manufacture it synthetically and patent it. Why? Because you cannot patent the Vitamin C within an orange, but if you create your personal synthetic clone of it, it is possible to patent that and then sell it as "a vitamin supplement". It's about money; and the marketing is about making you believe - unlike your personal knowing and Innate Intelligence (common sense), that it's better to buy the pill instead of simply eat the complete food, the orange. This whole process is the human mind process; not good sense, not Innate Intelligence, and not your Knowing.

This brings us back again to the "body" part of the health tripod. All the things we do to and for the physical body to keep up or even to regain physical health. These exact things include medicine, alternative therapies, nutrition, supplements, and the meals we eat.

So let's get back to the clone of Vitamin C which is not Real Vitamin C. To start with, it's been separated out of its natural habitat of the orange no longer has the synergistic benefits of all the other nutrients found within that Infinite Intelligence-created orange. The other nutrients within the orange were gathered together by Infinite Intelligence in the orange with the Vitamin C to interact one with the other - just like a symphony shall we say. All together they release their blessings of nutrition to the consumer in a concert. One triggers the other, one enhances the other, and within the body, they trigger certain enzymes or other mechanism to break it down sufficient reason for nutritional perfection and elegant harmony are absorbed into the body where they nourish and sustains the cells, the fundamental building block of your body. This is the symphony of naturally occurring whole foods in the act of nourishing the living body. The clone has no idea of the music.

While it is not quite the stuff of Frankenstein for science to comprehend food and nutrition in relationship to the human body, it is when these elements are separated out from the Whole Picture and peddled to mention the same efficacy because the Real thing, that they cannot do. Recall for a minute the actual Frankenstein creation: he was patchwork parody of the Real human, not elegantly Real.

When these synthetically created nutritional clones are ingested into the Real body, the body in fact does not recognize them and either sloughs them off (every wondered why your urine is indeed bright yellow if you are taking nutritional vitamin supplements ) or they're treated as toxins. If your body identifies them as toxins (foreign substance), it'll attempt to eliminate it from your body or surround it with fat cells similar to putting the bad guy into solitary confinement. [Did you ever wonder why we are so fat in such large numbers?] Appears to me, via good sense, my own Innate Intelligence exactly like yours, that the more toxins - synthetically/chemically produced foods (neo-nutrition) we consume, the more toxins your body is attempting to deal with and so produces the fat to surround and contain them to protect the vital organs of your body. The living body's single imperative, in the end, is to live. This is basic biology 101.

The rube is that a lot of the food available for consumption grown within the United States is synthetically altered in some fashion. First the seed, itself, is genetically modified from its original Infinite Intelligent state. Monsanto has done a grave and potentially catastrophic disservice to the planet by altering seed - again for the reason of patent - in order that now farmers need to buy seed each year.

Haven't you pointed out that you can't grow a fresh corn crop from the old corn seed or that this year's tomato seed won't grow a next generation of tomato? My own Innate knowing noticed this phenomenon years ago and thought then that was very strange. Particularly when the natural procedure for pollination would have eventually - by evolution - evolved a new seed that has been adapted to a specific climate or locality or pest. Once more, it's the mandate of most living things - Life Force, Innate Intelligence - to call home. And in so doing, living naturally and organically, every living thing will change and become naturally stronger and more resilient to its environmental challenges or perish. In the human body, this job is specially handled by the disease fighting capability.

All you have to do is turn to the cock roach to see the amazing ability of Infinite Intelligence to adapt for Life (probiotic). It really is this very procedure for adapting and changing to environmental challenges - evolution they called it in high school - that creates the nutrition - antioxidants for example - that we ingest through eating a whole food, that helps our anatomies meet their own environmental challenges.

However, because of these genetically modified seeds that want chemicals in the form or herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers to cultivate, the essential nutrition that we require to be healthy is currently absent from these food; and likewise, these foods contain much more toxins (synthetic chemicals) that people ingest into our bodies. They are not whole foods; they are corrupted foods.

Due to these corruptive foods, leading line digestive and immune systems are seriously compromised. When the digestive tract is compromised, we can not be nourished. When the disease fighting capability is compromised, we fight disease.

This is where the recent surge in demand for organically grown, non-genetically modified foods has arisen. To put it simply, organic, whole, Real foods contain much more potent and available nutrition for the bodies to use; and they come filled with Innate Life Force and without toxins. Studies prove that these foods are just as much as 60% higher in available nutrition than industrially grown foods.

The long term ramifications of synthetically grown foods are now evident by the amount of Americans who are sick. Diabetes has turned into a "life style" complete with its own magazines for diabetic living. Immune diseases are epidemic: multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome to name but a few and not to mention cancer and heart-related disease. Every one of these dis-eases can be directly traced back to our food supply and the resulting epidemic of malnutrition in Americans and the toxin load.

Better living cannot be found through chemistry with regards to health, food, nutrition and the environment. Synthetic chemistry and its own manipulation for profit makes corporations rich, farmers poor, and kills people.

By about 40 years, the body begins showing the effects of this deadly mix of slow poisoning with the accumulation of toxins compounded by years of malnourishment. The drip, drip, drip effect reaches critical mass and the body cannot manage any more, cannot cope, and begins to breakdown showing myriad outward indications of dis-ease. Nutrition is what your body uses to repair and rejuvenate itself, but without the proper nutrition produced from whole foods, the cells themselves cannot restore, renew or replenish with their natural state of health. Toss on the strain of accumulated toxins, in fact it is, "Houston, we have an issue."

This brings us to rebalancing medical Tripod.

The medical world has evolved into a lucrative business of treating symptoms of disease with more synthetic drugs with no intention of addressing the reason. It is just a mindset of sickness, not wellness. At its core medicine believes neither in the essential Infinite Intelligence of your body nor its capability to heal itself. But instead as its centerpiece are sickness, disease and decay.

Alternative health methodologies tend to be more inclined to honor the Infinite Intelligence of the body and treat symptoms of dies-ease with probiotic methods: moving energy (Life Force) in the body, support with herbs and nutrition in addressing the physical complaint. Furthermore many of these modalities will, to greater or lesser degrees, address the other two legs of the Tripod: mind and spirit as well. All these methods are good for you, as long as the mind leg of the tripod believes and knows this as well. If you don't have confidence in the Infinite Intelligence of one's body, you should opt for medical treatment.

Because of the medical model heavily influencing our Western thought, even alternative therapies have adopted "medicine-like" models for treatment of dies-ease, such as for example prescribing supplements and herbal remedies for regular use. But these shouldn't be taken as "medicine" on a long term basis, but rather used intermittently to aid the body until body/mind/spirit regains balance.

This brings us to the present phase in American healthcare, that is the onslaught of "natural supplements". But once more, the consumer must be educated and cautious, as some of these are the products of the chemical laboratory too, and not the merchandise of whole grown food. As previously discussed, these "nutritions" when isolated from their synergistic fellows in the whole food form do not supply the same healthful effects to the body. They are often more chemistry and always without the support of all of those other nutritional army within a whole food. That is largely what you see on the shelves at the drug store, the vitamin store and online. They're a poor regards to natural whole food nutrition. And remember, your body may identify these as toxins as well, sloughing them off or storing them in fat, but definitely not imparting any Real nutrition to your body for use.

Here is where the consumer must take responsibility for his/her own health insurance and come to understand your options clearly: synthetic chemistry, synthetic supplements, or whole organic food and whole food superfood supplements.

No longer can we afford to be ignorant of what is on offer to us out there for "health" benefits. You must be intelligent and use your personal good common sense for regaining and maintaining optimum health.

Two things are required, fundamental and essential, for complete and perfect health: 1. complete pure untainted available nutrition; 2. the body's ability to process and absorb the nutrients.

1. Complete, pure and untainted nutrition originates from organically grown whole foods, period.

a. Buy organically grown/raised foods whenever and whenever we can in the widest variety possible. Try growing some of your own. There is a reason that foods can be found with seasonality. Infinite Intelligence has provided us the vast and complete range of nutrients our bodies dependence on cellular health with a veritable buffet of foods: animal, vegetable, and fruits in balance and moderation, and more importantly, as the body uniquely informs you.

b. When buying a supplement, you need to determine that it's, in fact, a whole food supplement. Quite often they are called superfoods. An operating definition of superfood might be any food that's saturated in enzymes, phytochemicals, vitamins, minerals, Chlorophyll, and antioxidants. In a perfect world the goal would be to be free of anything manufactured and obtain complete nutrition from your wide spectrum selection of whole food selections. A word of warning: be certain that the complete food supplement, the superfood, is organic.

2. Probiotics are crucial to the absorption and assimilation of whole food nutrition.

1. To begin with, the "new" probiotic supplements are not some new invention or creation of modern science. They are natural, living organisms that are found in the intestinal tract. In fact, they're found in the digestive tract of every creature that digests food and makes waste. Probiotics (good bacteria) are given to us naturally by Infinite Intelligence entirely plant foods (vegetables, fruits and grains).

2. It is most important to comprehend, is that probiotics you live organisms with a life, a function and a mission. read more is perhaps to say they're leading line troops of your body's disease fighting capability. In the digestive system it really is their job to keep any "bad" bacteria in check. When "bad" bacteria are out of balance and in charge, the body cannot absorb nor assimilate the nutrition necessary for Innate Intelligence to revive the body to perform and perfect health

3. Probiotics assist in the digestion and elimination of waste materials from the body. If the body is not eliminating its waste and toxins, they're stored, via fat; and in the colon, if not eliminated completely, setup a world of decay: an ideal culture for dis-ease.

4. Warning: probiotic is word being used on labels now to get you to buy.

First, the product itself should be organic (yogurt, kefir, kambucha). Second the cultures must be LIVE.

5. If you are investing in a superfood enriched with probiotics as a dietary supplement (addition); then once again, ensure that the superfood is organic and that the probiotics have been cultured in sunlight (not killed by heat); and they haven't been cultured from fecal matter.

Just like with nutritional vitamin supplements, manufactured probiotics are present on the market place as well. Whenever a manufacturer can identify a probiotic in nature (in food), it isolates it by its chemical composition and manufactures it synthetically, patents it and gives it a patented name. As with synthetically created vitamins, patented probiotics will be treated by the body up to now another foreign substance. Your body then has to either discharge and avoid it, or store it in fat. The supposed "cure" has just added to the problem.

Since the digestive tract is the most critical place where nutrition is either absorbed and assimilated and offered for cellular health or not, this is the particularly sinister place to introduce synthetics, because neither will the nutrition be made available to the body nor should the body have to deal with yet another chemical impostor of the true.

It is appalling to me that we find ourselves in this place in the year 2008. Also I cannot understand how we're able to be so morally bankrupt concerning reach methodically poisoning our people with regard to money. However the truth of the matter is that each folks must take charge of our very own health and wellness no longer entrust it to "others."

The formula to regain and maintain health until you die is easy: body, mind, spirit. And the rule is that when any one of the three becomes out of balance, the stool falls.

You most probably will address your health only when you notice a physical symptom, but that is your possibility to address the mind and spirit areas of your life, aswell; for one or both of those aspects are out of sync if your system is ill.

We are a built-in being. Just as the knee bone is connected to the shin bone, your body is connected to the mind is connected to the spirit. The body is merely the casing which has mind and spirit for a physical adventure here on earth; and I think you will agree that without health, the physical experience is significantly less than optimal, to be certain.

If you are trying to regain (or maintain) your God-given state of complete and perfect health, you should use what methods and practices that you feel are correct and appropriate to support your physicality whilst you do the necessary explorations in mindset and spirit, bringing you back again to your perfectly balanced Health Tripod.

What we think, what we believe is what we experience. With the knowledge of something that is unpleasant rather than fulfilling comes the chance release a the beliefs and mindsets that got us here, and to choose new thoughts and new ideas which are probiotic - pro Life - and support us in complete and perfect health. The Whole Tripod.

One final note: we are dynamic beings, therefore constantly changing. The requirement to pay attention (be aware) and make conscious choices moment to moment is the essential job of spirituality and self-mastery, which a prolonged process. You never take action.

Applying your spirit, listening to the Innate Intelligence within, will always cause you to your good. Always.
