Diseases and nutritional deficiencies: How to handle
The best measures in case of almost any disease are:
* Pure water.
* Lots of fruit and vegetables.
* Raw fruit and vegetables.
* Moderate amounts of nuts, seeds, grain products, peas and beans.
* Necessary nutritional supplements (vitamins, minerals etc. as per the alphabetical guide below)
* Fresh air.
* Good and sufficient sleep.
* Emotional balance.
* Mental health.
* Good social relations.
Described below is the possible use of vitamins and other nutrients in to help handle different symptoms, diseases and various other circumstances. The most important ones are underlined. Be aware that vitamins and other nutritional supplements cannot replace healthy food, proper living conditions and following the above measures.
Comments regarding some vitamins and other nutritional supplements:
* B vitamins: Instead of taking the individual B vitamins separately, it is usually recommended to take B-complex, which contains all of the important B vitamins, and in some cases supplement with individual B vitamins if necessary. This will prevent imbalance.
* Calcium: Best supplement is Cal-Mag*
* Cholin: Best supplement is lecithin.
* Folic acid: It is by far the best to get folic acid through the food. Healthy food contains plenty of folic acid.
* Garlic: Can be taken in the form of odorless capsules.
* GLA: This is a very important sebacic acid and is found in Evening Primrose for instance.
* Inocitol: Best supplement is lecithin.
* Iodine: Found in seaweed or kelp tablets.
* Iron: Should only be taken when deficiency has been detected.
* Magnesium: Best supplement is Cal-Mag* + magnesium tablets if necessary. Magnesium powder can also be mixed with the same amount of ascorbic acid powder (vitamin C) and boiling water poured over it.
*Cal-Mag is a drink containing calcium and magnesium in a form that is very easily absorbed by the body. It is available as mixed powder or it can be prepared as follows:
1. Mix the following ingredients in a glass: 1 tablespoon (15ml) calcium gluconate + 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) magnesium carbonate + 1 tablespoon (15ml) cider vinegar. The vinegar is important as it makes it possible for the body to absorb the calcium.
2. Fill the glass half full with boiling water and stir until the powder is dissolved. The fluid should now be clear. Fill the glass with cold water. The Cal-Mag is now ready to drink.
