Health Topics - Healthy Living

These pages aren’t just about information—they’re about transformation. They exist to awaken you to the life-changing power of true health mastery. Because your health isn’t just a topic of discussion—it’s the foundation of everything you do, feel, and become.


And when it comes to your health, there is no middle ground.

You have a choice, and that choice matters more than you think:

  • Will you take control—nourishing, strengthening, and optimizing your body—so you can stay youthful, vibrant, and truly alive for decades beyond the average lifespan?
  • Or will you follow the path most people take—drifting toward an existence where the final 10–20 years are filled with decline, exhaustion, and disease?

A Broken Body is Like a Broken Down Car

Picture this: Someone buys a brand-new car. At first, it runs perfectly. But over time, they skip the oil changes, ignore the warning lights, and never bother with maintenance. The engine sputters, the tires wear unevenly, and one day… it just won’t run anymore.

Now, imagine that car is your body.

Neglect your health, and the breakdown is inevitable. But care for it, and your body—like a well-maintained, high-performance machine—can run strong, smooth, and powerful for decades.

Your body is the only vehicle you’ll ever have for this journey of life. Will you treat it like something disposable? Or will you give it the care and attention it deserves—so you can live longer, feel incredible, and thrive?

The choice is yours. But the consequences?

They are massive.

The consequences of neglecting car maintenance — or your health — may not be immediate, but they are inevitable.

The same principle applies to our health.

The gap between neglecting healthy habits and the eventual consequences can lull us into complacency. But make no mistake: failing to maintain your health today paves the way for tomorrow's breakdown. The longer one waits, the greater the cost.

More Valuable Than Any Car—Your Health is Irreplaceable

Ironically, many people take better care of their vehicles than their own bodies. They schedule oil changes, rotate tires, and fix minor issues before they become major problems. Yet, when it comes to their own health, they delay, assuming they can “get to it later” after careers, family, and responsibilities.

But health doesn’t wait. It quietly declines when ignored, and by the time the damage is noticeable, reversing it is far harder than preventing it. John Greenleaf Whittier’s words say it best:

  • “For of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: ‘It might have been.’”

Don’t let neglect steal the future you deserve. The time to act is now.

looking scared after health breakdown

After a breakdown of a car or a person's health, there may likely be a seeking of a repair person, i.e. a car mechanic, or a hospital and doctor to fix the breakdown or health challenge. But because of our human nature, the person will probably be shaking his/her head and wondering why did this happen to me?

Truly, that person's response should instead be "I deserve this because I didn't do the preventative maintenance".

 
 
habits are powerful

Habit is the most powerful word in the English language and it is what makes a person free. Habits make or breaks each person in terms of character, finances, spirituality, enjoyment of relationships, health, overall happiness, etc. If you habitually neglect to give priority to your health, you will lose the freedom to fully enjoy your life because your health will be going away imperceptibly day by day, until one day you realize you are no longer healthy. This loss of health becomes a form of bondage, as anyone struggling with poor health understands.

Therefore, we must proactively, constantly:

  • Remember, that out of small and simple things comes that which is great!
  • Visualize the type of health we want.
  • Seek to understand which path and which steps will take us to that destination. So, never stop learning!!
  • Believe that the most powerful word in the English language is HABIT. Habits enable us and free us. So, LOVE MAKING good habits! Good habits are one's best friends.
  • Believe that healthy habits are the constant vigilance that grants us true freedom from poor health. Just as a well-maintained car runs smoothly for years, our bodies thrive when we nurture them with the right habits. Daily choices like eating nutritious foods, staying active, managing stress, and getting adequate rest are small but powerful acts of self-care. These habits not only prevent the breakdowns that come from neglect but also protect our long-term well-being. Consistency in these habits forms the foundation for a life free from the limitations that poor health can impose. In essence, healthy habits are the key to living with vitality, allowing us to enjoy life fully and engage with the people and experiences that bring meaning to our lives. Without them, we risk losing the very freedom we seek to maintain.

Three Habits that destroy the health of most people.

  1. Trusting others too much — especially those who benefit from your poor health and your early death, such as big business, big pharma and big government — can be dangerous. It's essential to take charge of your own health by understanding the real truths about wellness.
  2. Not thinking about your health — and not believing that a person you see in a coffin, hospital bed, struggling with joint pain, losing memory, functioning with limited mobility or low energy, etc. may very likely be you in the future, unless you learn to act smarter than they did. Especially failing to consider what are one's particular health risks is the height of unthinkiness or arrogance (take your pick).
  3. Failing to plan your daily routines so as to establish the Six Habits of Health. The old saying is true: If one fails to plan, the result becomes the same as if one had planned to fail.

People are like cars:

  • Without regular maintenance, they inevitably break down!

  • The heart attack at 50 likely started with habits formed at 20.

  • The Alzheimer's diagnosis at 70 may have taken root at 40.

  • The loss of mobility and independence at 80 often traces back to choices made at 30.

  • The quality of health in your future is shaped by the actions you take today. Choose wisely.

Important Health Topics for Today's World

health topics

"My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge" was an ancient sage's lament.

What you don't know about health limits your potential for longer and more productive life... so it's time to learn.

Healthy Living is all about giving the knowledge that saves people from poor health.

Please review this page for any topics of interest, and visit our Health Blog page, Health Coaching page, and 6 Habits of Health page to learn what is real on a variety of health topics.

The wisest people among us have learned from the experience of others and project into the future the calculated probabilities that the experiences of others will become their own if they go down a similar path. Theen they they take action to counter those probabilities.

That means each one of us needs to asses our own unique health risks and strategize so as to not become a statistic!

In general, we can divide people into six groups, each of which has somewhat different health risks from the other groups. So, let’s consider the differing risks of the following types of people.

Children

Children - are at high risk in our modern world for two specific reasons that are totally under the control of their parents.

It is up to their parents to guide them and to learn the countermeasures to these risks and how to ensure that children have as great a future life as possible.

Learn how to do this in our children’s guide to nutrition.

Women

Women - have specific needs because of the immune confusion and stress inherit in menstrual cycles, giving birth and caring for children take on their bodies. 79% of all autoimmune diseases occur in women. Both men who care about their women and women themselves need to understand and reduce these risks for women. Read more about women’s nutrition in our special women’s section.

Men

Men - have a much higher propensity for vascular disease than do women (up through women’s menopause, after which the risks start to equalize). If you are a man or a woman who cares about a man, you need to know what to do to reduce this risk of cardiovascular disease. Read more about men’s need for cardio-protective nutrition in our men’s nutrition section.

Overweight

Overweight people - face a triple whammy of health risks leading to aging and degenerative disease.

Being overweight is the single greatest risk for health problems.

We explain the way out of this trap in our section on overcoming the overweight condition.

Athletes

Athletes - have unusual nutrition requirements which, when not met, spell very real danger.

If you are an athlete or care about an athlete, please read our section on athlete’s nutrition.

Seniors

Seniors - are at the age when inadequate nutrition related stress and disease are taking their heaviest toll. They have less time before critical consequences are faced. Please take time to understand the needs of seniors as it relates to nutrition.

The answer that we like best is:

" I want to die young, but as late in life as possible"

- Dr. William R. Kellas


Medical science has done an absolutely magnificent job of curtailing deaths from infections and traumas, which used to be the leading causes of death.

As a result of their brilliant advances in controlling deaths from infection and trauma, past realities where one out of every two people died from infection or trauma are done away.

Instead, people now get to reap the consequence of how well they nourish and protect their bodies.

"TheCurse Causeless Shall Not Come !"

(that quote from the wisest man on earth, King Solomon) — means that if one has a chronic health problem...

then there is a cause, an

  • injury,
  • toxicity,
  • inherited gene defect,
  • or lack of needed nutrition

that is interfering with the body’s natural ability to self-heal and function optimally.
