| Favorite statements: |
There is no treatment or drug - Which
can overcome or negate - The effects of a poor diet, inadequate nutrition,
lack of exercise, and an unhealthy life style.
Every time we take
a food that nature has presented to us and alter it in any way, we
have made it worse. Nature is right and we are wrong.
The most important
qualities of a good health practitioner are an extremely open mind
coupled with an extremely skeptical mind. When either is missing
or lacking, their "facts" and "knowledge" are
far more likely to be faulty, inadequate, incomplete, or simply wrong.
Traditional
schooling and education will always comprise the smallest amount
of the knowledge base for any exceptional health practitioner.
One must continually go outside of the mainstream and test everything
you are taught or told as "fact", in order to learn what
works and what does not. |
| A
wise healer uses what works, regardless of what other authorities
may say to the contrary.
