The Source of Disease
Why do we get sick and develop
disease?
Disease is
caused by the internal poisoning of your body. Essentially your cells are
tearing down faster than they are able to repair themselves. This result is the body is left in a weakened
state and susceptible to disease.
There are
many forces that will destroy your cells and essentially your health. These
include:

A Good Analogy
Lets say
for instance that you have a problem with mice in your garage. In order to effectively
eliminate the mice, the actual source of the problem, needs to be identified.
The source may be garbage that was left out or a hole in the garage door. If
you only call an exterminator to get rid of the mice you would not be dealing
with the source of the problem which would only result in a short term cure.
Saying those stupid mice, they keep coming back to my garage! makes as much
sense as declaring this stupid cold keeps coming back. If you dont change
the environment (i.e. the trash or in the case of your health, your lifestyle)
the mice or disease will continue to return.
Are Germs the Source of Disease?
The Germ Theory
The germ
theory of disease, discovered by Louis Pasteur, states that most infectious
diseases are caused by germs. Pasteurs germ theory led us to believe that
germs are out there and ready to attack our healthy bodies at a moments
notice and that we are powerless to stop them. This theory is based on studying
the cause of the illness rather than the actual sourcethat initiated the illness.
The secret
to returning the body to a healthy state is to discover the true source of the
illness. If not, we will constantly be cursing the illness while continuing to
nourish the cause.
If we
examine the source of an illness, we invariably find that it is related to
lifestyle: the air we breathe, the water we drink, the foods, non-foods, drugs,
chemicals we ingest. When a person develops an infection we tend to focus
our efforts on healing the infection rather than tracking the actual source of
the infection. The source could be any one or combination of items
including liver damage from years of alcohol consumption or eating foods that
are high in fat or processed. It may be that the liver never had a chance to
recuperate, leaving the body to eliminate the poisons in some other way that manifests
itself through disease.
If we
deal directly with the source of the disease then the causes of the illness
should disappear. This will allow us to lead a life full of healthy and vitality.
A Water Ionizer Can Change your
Life!
What is a water Ionizer?
A water
ionizer is a small appliance that removes common pollutants from tap water and
increases the alkalinity of the water and the amount of oxygen in it. Drinking alkaline water from a water ionizer
can help the body get rid of acidic wastes and help fight disease. As discussed earlier, disease develops in a
body that is compromised. Cells that were once healthy will adapt to an acidic environment
and become unhealthy cells which create an atmosphere that is more conducive to
disease.
Decrease the Risk of Disease by
Drinking Alkaline Water from a Water Ionizer.
To help our
bodies get rid of these wastes its imperative to decrease the intake of acidic
foods and increase the consumption of alkaline foods like fresh fruits and
vegetables and alkaline water. Drinking alkaline water will help neutralize the
acidic wastes we have built up in the body and restore the body to its slightly
alkaline state. This is the optimal conditional to maintain excellent health
and prevent disease.
