If you can see, the first letters of the 8 law of health make a sentance that is: New start.

Now I'm going to explain: "New start".

Nutrition

 Avoids all refined foods; Uses fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, legumes and grains, as fresh & simple as possible. Fresh is best, Frozen next best, dried is OK also. Eat as much as possible fresh & raw. Sprouts are very good. Reduce oil and fat, including margarine and vegetable oils and things made with them; especially Canola oil. (Read Labels)

Use no refined sugar; Aspartame or artificial sweeteners: replace with honey or dried fruits and use these lightly.

Avoid 'salt bombs' such as cheezies, chips, pretzels and party snacks. Most cheese is extremely high in fat & salt and should be limited.

Use no deep fried foods.

Don't mix fruits and vegetables at the same meal. Avoid 'hot' spices and vinegar.

Cook in Glass, stainless steel, or enamel, not aluminum. (or better still eat it raw) If you can, get organically grown foods.

Avoid micro waved, and irradiated produce.

A good rule is: "IF IT GROWS on plants, EAT IT; and EAT IT IN AS NATURAL A STATE AS POSSIBLE." The more man does with a food the less nutritional value it has left when he is finished.  

Exersise

 Begin a program of walking; walk as far as is comfortable, gradually working up to 3 or 4 miles a day. Take a walking stick for stability. Work up to a minimum of 20-30 minutes at least every other day. If muscles are weak, every other day is better, as it takes 48 hrs. recovery time.

Can't go out? A rebounder, (mini trampoline) is good for some. Organic Gardening is also great exercise for health. (and the side effect are yummy vegetables.)  

Water

 Your body is about 75% water. Lots of water is needed for optimal function. Every process in your body depends on the presence of adequate water.

Drink lots of pure, soft water daily. Kangen Water is best. Juice, tea or soft drinks do NOT take the place of water. Your weight ÷ 2= minimum number of oz. of water to drink daily. Adequate fluid intake will increase your endurance and energy levels. Studies show DEHYDRATION at the cellular level to be the root cause of many diseases. Carry a supply with you at work and on walks etc.

On arising squeeze a fresh lemon into two glasses room temperature or warm water and drink it. Drink between meals. 2 hours after to 1/2 hour before, not with meals. Taking 2 glasses 1/2 hour before each meal, prevents mealtime thirst, aids digestion and prevents ulcers. Shower daily with cool or tepid water using a bath brush or good rough washcloth to rub your skin all over. This improves circulation and helps the body to get toxins out.  

Sunlight

 Sunshine has several benefits to the body. It furnishes the natural Vitamin D and helps to lower cholesterol. Sunlight increases the volume of oxygen in the blood. Start with 10-15 minutes daily to face and hands and work up to 30-45 minutes daily. The best time for sunbathing is when the sun is comming up and when it's comming down to Avoid burning. To lessen skin cancer risk, reduce the fat intake, such as animal fats, oils, margarine - (and foods containing refined, processed oils)  

Temperance

 

Temperance is not only concerned with drinking booze or smoking; good health requires moderation and wise choices in all aspects of life. Over-eating, over-playing, over-working, and over-indulgence of the marriage privilege can all contribute to poor health. Abstain from all harmful indulgences; Tobacco, alcohol coffee, tea, (except herbal tea) colas and soft drinks. The bit of pleasure they might give is not worth the misery they cause in the long run. 

Air

 Pure fresh air is very important to our well being. That means good air with lots of oxygen. Walking in forests and nature is great. Do some deep breathing exercises daily, this is very helpful in the morning. Even in winter have windows open a little and air rooms daily. Avoid smoke, chemicals, Room fresheners and aerosol sprays. 

Rest

 Get adequate restful sleep; an early, light supper, well before bedtime and no eating before bed will help. A relaxing warm bath may help you unwind, avoid stressful and stimulating activities before bedtime. Regular times for going to bed and rising will also help. 100 years ago the average person got 9 or more hours sleep. Now it is more like 4 or 5. Exercise during the day also helps set the stage for restful sleep. Avoid using drugs for sleep, as these are harmful and sleep thus attained is of little benefit to your body. Lack of restful sleep is for many the root of the 'enervation' that brings disease. For healing and cleansing to occur much rest and sleep is needed as these actions are done only while asleep.  

Trust

 An abiding faith in our loving God will help you. He has made every provision to forgive and cleanse all our past mistakes. He will give power to break harmful addictions and help us overcome bitter and angry attitudes that 'eat us up' inside. If we are 'Willing to be made willing' He will work with us, take away our love for sinning and make us free in Him. Ask Him.

Have you ever really read the Bible?

Oh, I don't mean just looking up a text at church; I mean really read it as a letter of love from God to you personally?

Well, when you do, you will find it full of precious promises; each one meant for you just as much as anybody else.

Do you know what 'Faith' is? Well, it is simply taking God at His word; in other words, believing that He means what He says in His Word, the Bible. If you take time every day to read God's Word as personal to you and talk to Him about His promises; your life will blossom as you have never dreamed.
