You Wouldn’t Do this To Your Vehicle!

These days almost everyone has a vehicle of some kind, and we know what happens if we don’t regularly service the car, or at least do a routine service. That means changing the oil filter, air filter, and engine oil. Of course if something goes wrong with the brakes and we don’t fix it, it can be catastrophic!

What amazes me is that as humans, we don’t think of our bodies in the same way. What if we did a regular service on ourselves? Would this make a difference to our health and vitality?

Why Humans Are Like Cars!

There are a lot of similarities between humans and vehicles. We all run on fuel. In our case it is food and drink. A vehicle needs gas! We need to evacuate toxins every day, while the car has an exhaust system to eliminate waste. Cars need regular servicing and so do we! Hmm! What do you mean by regular servicing for humans!

Like it or not, every breath we take, every drink we consume, every morsel we eat, in addition to essential nutrients, contains toxins. You may not want to hear it, but unlike a car, we have no changeable air or oil filter. A regular oil change and using premium fuel is our best option. When you neglect your car, it rusts and systems break down. One of our neighbours drives 80k to Sydney every day and every night we see his car with the hood up. What if the car had been regularly serviced. It would now be in much better condition! You know that constant neglect of servicing dramatically shortens the life of a vehicle.

Do humans Rust?

When we fuel ourselves with excess alcohol and tobacco for years and years, we rust just like a car. Unchecked, these free radicals move through all of our body systems, causing our bodies to be more acidic, leading to inflammation. Keep going and you end up with persistent illness, then chronic disease, and eventually no quality of life, or even no life at all! Off to the wreckers yard.

By now you may be able to see that there is a case for regular maintenance, and that having a maintenance program can extend the life of your car, and you, by many years! What’s more, do you want to be an old clunker before your time, or end up one of those prized vintage cars, we see still in pristine condition after 70,80 or even 100 years of service. I know which I would choose.

My Journey

When I was young, I was quite a sick child. I had all the usual (in those days) diseases. Measles, Mumps, Chicken Pox, and Whooping Cough. My Tonsils were removed at 6, and I had a long period of Bronchitis. At 14 I contracted Rheumatic fever, and was in bed and critical for 4 months. Later I travelled, with a bout of Amoebic dysentery and a parasite that caused such big boils I could hardly walk. I am telling you this to explain I didn’t have an ideal start in life, not to complain.

At the ripe old age of 26, I was driven to Natural Health, as my partner consistently felt unwell, and the medicos had no answer. In a few months of detoxing and improving nutrition my health improved radically, and now over 30 years later, I am feeling great, playing competition Tennis with no injuries at full tilt, and bringing up a 4 year old! A large part of my time is spent promoting Natural Supplements that can assist anyone to feel like I do to a ripe old age.

A Human Oil Change

Apart from Sunshine, Clean Water and Exercise daily, one of the most important components for continued vibrant health is regularly removing the toxins that clog up our liver, kidneys and colon, our body’s main filter. We can’t change our filters, but we can clean them. When we do, our immune system operates much better, the fuel we put in our bodies burns more efficiently, and we are able to lead a much happier life.

I would suggest you don’t dismiss or underestimate this. The idea that we naturally detox is wrong! It can be proven with a simple Heavy Metal Test. If your body is acidic, i.e. a pH below 7.0, you are on your way to sickness and disability. A simple pH test can give you an indication of this. You can get it with the Heavy Metal Test Kit, or separately.

Once or twice a year, go on a detox program. Consciously choose more Natural and Raw foods. Drink lots of water. As a user of AIM products, you know that Herbal Fiberblend is an excellent way to give your body an oil change! Taking it for 6 -12 weeks twice a day while boosting your immune system with Leafgreens and Barley Life will renew your spirits and energize you till the next oil change. Adding Florafood means your small intestine functions more youthfully too. You can purchase these products at our website by clicking on this link Leafgreens has reduced in price recently and fortified with additional Broccoli sprouts.

The new year is a great time to get the cobwebs out of your body and set your health up for 2011.
