For years allopathic medicine said it’s in the genes, and nutrition had nothing to do with your condition. What a relief for most people they could keep doing what they always did. However, what was left out was if you keep doing what you always do you will keep getting the same results. Holistic healing modalities recognizes that the path to health in not in the pill bottles lining your medicine cabinet.

It has been found that the best strategy for a long life free of debilitating disease would be to restrict calories. The best way to do that is to cut down on glucose. This is what helps human cells live longer. This discovery was published in the FASEB Journal (Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology). 

Changes

This is the reaction that I would expect to the news. Changes that get you moving in the right direction include weight control, and tweaks to your lifestyle. Understanding what getting healthier means, will help you makeover your health. This is holistic healing, and this is the future of medicine.

Believe it of Not

“Western science is on the cusp of developing a pharmaceutical fountain of youth” said Gerald Weissmann, M.D., Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal. “This study confirms that we are on the path to persuading human cells to let us to live longer, and perhaps cancer-free, lives.”

Don’t Hold Your Breath

“Our hope is that the discovery that reduced calories extends the lifespan of normal human cells will lead to further discoveries of the causes for these effects in different cell types and facilitate the development of novel approaches to extend the lifespan of humans,” said Trygve Tollefsbol, Ph.D., a researcher involved in the work from the Center for Aging and Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. “We would also hope for these studies to lead to improved prevention of cancer as well as many other age-related diseases through controlling calorie intake of specific cell types.”

The people that have been practicing this type of lifestyle have proved that this works without pharmacitical intervention. There is no need to wait for conclusive studies, the research studies are compelling, and the best proof is the success of the people that have benefited from this.

Calorie Poisoning

This is the malady that many people suffer from. When people hear calorie restriction they think starvation diet. Well most people are on a starvation diet. How could that be with all the abundance?

Nutrient starvation for lack of a better term means cells are starving and can’t function well. That is what happens when you consume calories from non-nutritious sources. The other problem is when the amount of food shoved in on a continuous basis is too large for the organs to handle you become toxic.

Once your cells are toxic they can’t perform their jobs very well. We are being calorie poisoned. Our systems never have a chance to rest between eating. Digestion takes a lot of energy, that can be used for repair work.

Where To Start

When your hear calorie restriction, think of it as the opposite of calorie poisoning. Restricting Glucose that is part of most packaged food is a good way to start. This sure beats waiting for drugs that will slow human aging and prevent cancer. The formula for doing that is on your dinner plate.

Starting this before another round of scientific studies is conducted would be prudent. After you start you will know the results in short order.

Alternative ways to health that are sensible have been known for centuries. In this decade we need researches to discover the obvious. How far we have come from common sense is due to the power of modern medicine.
