10) "LET YOUR FOOD BE YOUR MEDICINE AND YOUR MEDICINE BE YOUR FOOD"

This is word of Father of medicine, Hippocrates. The meaning of this is this: let all that you will need to eat or drink should be what is going to be of health benefits. No food or drink is neutral. Not even water. Whatever you take would either have positive or negative effects on your body system. Remember! "YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT " Your health conditions now is a result of what you have taken or are eating now. That's why the Father of medicine said; let what you eat be what is going to be of health benefits. Your fruits, vegetables, spices are foods and medicine as well. But your soft drinks (Coke, PEPSI, Lab Juices etc) and Junck foods, processed / lab foods etc are foods but are not medicine. And let what you will take as medicine to be what you can take as food.

Someone having low sugar level can be asked to take sugar cane, honey, pineapple, watermelon and other high glycemic index fruits to increase the sugar levels. Or, someone with high blood pressure or insomnia can be asked to be eating banana. All these are as well foods.

Alternatively, for pain relief, you can go to hospital or chemist shop for analgesic drugs. Yes! These synthetic drugs are medicine but are not food. Or can anyone of you take any of them as food? NO! Or without any ailments, can you be taking Diabetes or High blood pressure drugs simply because you want to prevent the ailments? Of course NO! this is exactly what the father of medicine said.

Understand? GOOD!

I have earlier told you, what we need to be healthy is not costly at all. All we need is the right knowledge to know what is good or bad for our body and the Discipline to uphold it.

How many of you know about these herbs; Cinnamon, Turmeric, Ginger, Garlic, Fenugreek, Black seed, garden cress, Ruman, etc? All these are readily available in our markets and most of the Islamic shops around you.

All these are what we need in our kitchen. We use all these to treat you when you fall sick. Why can't you be taken them now to prevent the ailments?

Turmeric is mainly made up of Curcumine. This compound is highly effective in treatment of many ailments such as; High blood pressure, diabetes, pain relief, wound etc.

In fact, I advise that you have Turmeric at home. It's very good to treat any open wound. Just apply the powder on the open wound. It help to prevent growth of microorganisms. The wound will quickly heal up. That's what I'm using to treat any open wound.

These are exactly the types of foods I'm talking about. They created the problems by producing all GMO related foods and later give you synthetic drugs to treat ailments caused by these foods.

So, let's be very careful.

Consuming all these or giving it to our children are highly discouraged.

If all what you want is to have a drink in a bottle, then, prepare a fruits juice at home and pour it in a bottle.

Please don't be offended with all the above pictures especially the last picture. It's for learning purpose. I have more terrifying pictures than all these above. I got them during research on causes of ailments.

Let's be very careful. We are killing ourselves gradually without realizing.

No ailment just occur by chance, they are caused by what you eat or drink. Remember: "YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT "

Next is:

8) EATING HEAVY FOOD/ FRUIT/VEGETABLES

Some times, eating heavy food is good, but some other times it's advised that you stick to light food or fruits.

When you are strong and healthy you can eat whatever healthy food you like because your digestive system is strong. However, when you are sick your body is week so is your internal organs. At this time, your digestive system is weak to digest the food you eat especially the heavy food.

According to medical experts, what your body needs most at this time is light food like "Pap" ("eko"/"koko" etc.) or fruits or vegetables. These are easier for your system to digest. Unfortunately, when we are sick, we still eat heavy foods which make it difficult for us to recover quick.

Fruits and vegetables are best foods to eat when on sick bed.
These fruits and vegetables are foods. We also need to understand that even our soup like jute ("ewedu"), Baobab ("Luru"), "efo" or spinach, or Ugwu etc are foods. We can decide to eat 2 or more combination of these at a time.

Unfortunately, we count them as lubricant only. That's they are just there to help eat the solid foods.

That's why when eating pounded yam("Iyan") for instance, we stopped as soon as the pounded yam is finished. We leave the remaining soup on the table. We do this because we don't know the health benefits of them. We don't know they are even more beneficial to our body.

According to Hippocrates, the father of medicine,; "Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food".

Our medicines are the healthy food we eat. Some ailments are caused as a result of lack of certain minerals and vitamins present in these vegetables. So, when we eat all these, we are eating our medicine.

Grains like guinea corn, Millet etc are very good colon cleanser. Foods made out of these grains are good colon cleanser.

According to medical experts; over 90℅ of our ailments are caused as a result of dirty Colon especially at old age.

I have discoursed COLON (Large Intestine) in the past. Check BTN telegram if you are a new member.

When you are sick, hot pap helps to clean the large Intestine (colon) and also help to clean your blood. The heat from the pap dissolves blood stasis formed by the lipid/fat in the blood. As a result, oxygen and nutrients are able to be transported throughout the body.

This is one of the reasons why China don't play with "Hot Bath". In Hot Baths, heat move from outside to the blood streams. In hot pap, heat move from inner to the blood streams.

Haven't you notice when you take hot pap, you will see "water " (sweats) on the toes of your foot. Did your stomach extends to that area? NO. It's transfer of heat. So, both perform same function in that aspect. The principle of operation is the same, to dissolve blood stasis formed by the fat in the blood.

At Old age, you are weak physically, so is your internal organs. The digestive system is also weak. So, take more of fruits , veggies and liquid foods or liquidify foods.
