Improper food and Bad Habits - Fatal to health

Hi Friends,

All of us desire happiness, peace and prosperity but the basic condition of achieving them is good health. How many of us observe the basic rules of physical and mental health and take proper food and follow good habits to gain good health? We dont think of the right food and eat. Consequently, when we fall ill, we are used to finding fault with fate. We rarely observe the basic principles of sound health. A negligible illness, and we rush to a doctor and administer poisnous drugs into our body. May be, these poisnous drugs give immediate relief, but this relief is short-lived. When the same ailment recurs, we are compelled to take stronger drugs in large doses with the results that several new diseases spring up out of one and we are entrapped in such a vicious circle that it is hard to get out of it.

But dont despair; there is one simple but effective way to get rid of the vicious circle of medicines. At the outset, we must clearly understand the fact that the origin of man's major or minor illnesses is improper dietic habits. We maintain physical and mental fitness through the consumption of proper and wholesome food. Raw food is the main force of preserving our health. Basically a proper diet is the best of all the medicines produced in the world. In the same way we can say that an improper diet is the cause of a disease. If we accept the two facts that our health is in our hands and our present diet is based on taste. If we change it, we can save thousands of rupees which are otherwise spent on medicines. The best diet is that which maintains our health in a natural way, nourishes the limbs and the organs of the body, makes them active and supplies whatever is deficient in the body.

Wheather a particular diet is proper or improper should be considered carefully. It is advisable to go for raw food in comparison to cooked food for the betterment of health. Compared to fried and boiled vegetables, unprocessed vegetables and their juices give much more nutrition and vitality. Sunripened fruits and raw food are considered more beneficial to health than canned fruits and juices, biscuits, bread, pickles, sweets, etc. because minerals and enzymes can be obtained only from fresh vegetables, fruits and natural food and they are essential for nourishment and health. Cooking destroys vitamins, enzymes and minerals contained in food-grains, vegetables and fruits. Sugar, salt and other delicious condiments, when added, make the food indigestible and without nutrients. Besides, diets with improper combinations such as fruit salad, rice pudding with pulses, milk with onions and garlic impair our health.

The number and varieties of items of eatables and drinks are multiplying day by day. Moreover, we become gluttonsous at late night parties. Today's life is a life of haste, hurry, bustle and mental tension. Under this stress we are now used to take refreshments every now and then throughout the day. Consequently, the mode of man's life has become irregular and discordant. Biological rhythm of body is endangered by irregular timings of eating, drinking, sleeping and walking. These irregularities disarrange the excretory functioning of the body. This is the reason why constipation, insomnia, bodyache and headache are the common complaints of today. The use of intoxicating substances like tobacco, ganja (hemp), etc. is also the cause of the accumulation of toxins and other harmful elements in the body. The system of adding colour, taste and flavour to food and the various processes through which it passes destroy its life giving nutrients. And look at the manufacturers; after food is processed, synthetic vitamins are added to make it nutritious. But all these additives and processed foods are injurious to health.

The diet consisting of raw or boiled food, raw vegetables, fruits and fresh fruit juices is proper and desirable for health. Among all diets juice diet is considered best for health and vitality.
