The 10 Health Laws

The 10 Health Laws

Third Edition of 52 Health Letters.

Reader

Wow! Two weeks is already gone. I didn't realise it would go this fast. I just ended a series of night shifts only to discover i am running behind time with this dispatch.

Moving onto the topic of the week.

If we want to live healthy and long, we must maintain a lifestyle that fosters wellness results. This third edition of the 52 letters will focus on health laws. I did not make them. I got them from the primal blueprint used in training health coaches. I am sure they are not hard to understand, and because we will be applying these rules to real-life contexts and in the coming letters, it is better to introduce them early enough.

What are the ten health rules?

1. Eat plants and animals
2. Avoid poisonous things
3. Move frequently at a slow pace.
4. Lift heavy things.
5. Sprint once in a while.
6. Get adequate sleep.
7. Play.
8. Get sunlight.
9. Avoid stupid mistakes.
10. Use your mind.

You see them, so many wellness secrets are in it.

Let's highlight the first two:

We can not over-emphasise the importance of eating natural foods that are plant and animal-based. There is no better and safer food on earth than the one provided by nature. Civilisation has done so well by taking us from a hunter-gatherer lifestyle to the cultivation and social life, and the advancement of science and technology in the bid to grow food faster has resorted to genetically modifying foods and food products.

In that case, we are not eating natural food but a hybrid.

We Eat poisons without knowing it

What are positions?

Substances that can damage their health or endanger their life when consumed. Apart from certain substances being inherently poisonous irrespective of quantity, some harmfulness of consumables is due to overdosing, dependence and length of exposure to the substance consumed, things such as alcohol and medications.

Someone shared with me how she plans to use Ozempic to lose weight. If you do not know, Ozempic is an injection used in treating adults with insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus as an adjunct to diet and exercise.

She doesn't know that medications are regulated and approved after considering their benefits over risk in patients with a disease state. Why would someone without type 2 diabetes want to take it with the sole aim of losing weight when there are other effective ways to get into shape?

Before we consume any medication, we consider the risks, side effects and possible complications of using it in the context of what we are trying to gain and the possible alternatives.

You see what we are talking about. For instance, in weight loss,

we shouldn't be too quick to take some herbs and quick-fix meds that are detrimental to our overall wellbeing. I know that the recommended route might take longer time and commitments, and it may be frustrating when you lose five and gain four back. The most ideal practices are better when established as habits and lifestyles.

Key Takeaway

We must thoughtfully make our dietary choices, weight loss strategies and other health decisions mindful of the risks and consequences, not just the benefits. Long-term healthy habits are usually better than quick fixes.

Summary:

I am saying that there are ten health laws, and incorporating them into our lifestyle will make us healthier. The first two laws derived from the primal blueprint for health coaches are consuming natural foods (plants and animals) and avoiding poisonous substances.
