Sleep

How much sleep? At least 6 hours each night. In order to have optimal health you must be able to switch your brain off and drift pleasantly and easily into deep relaxing sleep.

So in addition to the 2.7 litres of water I need every day I also make sure to eat food that is healthy and easy for my body to assimilate and is fresh and grown on healthy soil with all the minerals contained that my body needs.

This article follows a series written on the four pillars, absolutely necessary for optimal health.

The first article was on Water and How Important it is to have Correct Hydration. The second article was about Food and the choices that we make.

The third article was about Minerals and how lack of necessary minerals or too many of the wrong minerals may be affecting your body. The fourth article and the last of the big four was about Enzymes.

Without enzymes we wouldn’t exist in a physical body. Nor would we have been able to be conceived. That’s how important they are.

While Minerals Are The True Building Blocks Of The Body & In Order To Have A Healthy Body We Need Minerals To:

1. Be in the food that we eat

2. Be readily digestible from that food

3. Be in a state of health in our own digestive system that allows us to digest and assimilate the minerals that are in our foods.

In order to get the minerals we need Enzymes. Enzymes are the things that do the work. Without enzymes of all of the right kinds constantly being produced it would be like trying to build a house without any workers.

We could have water and cement, bricks and timbers and all of the fittings, just no one there to put it all together.

Our disease states are all on the rise including childhood, adolescent and adult obesity as well as diabetes, heart disease and cancer, and all can directly be attributed to poor food quality leading to lack of enzymes.

Lack of enzymes combined with the lack of minerals in our foods and the inability of our digestive systems to extract what is in there, is I believe, one of the major reasons for the huge increase in mental health issues affecting both children and adults.

There are solutions for all conditions that are affecting the children and youth of today. Most involve changes and significant changes to their diets and the addition of supplementary nutrients and enzymes.

We are dealing with these issues in our clinics in increasing numbers every year and the solutions we offer are simple and relatively easy to institute and strengthen the children’s body and digestive system as well as their self-esteem and ability to interact healthily in the world.

Getting the right balance of minerals and enzymes into our body is imperative for optimal health. To do this we need a body that is able to rest and sleep. It is during sleep that most of the repair work is being done in the body.

How Much Sleep? At Least 6 Hours Each Night!

In order to have optimal health you must be able to switch your brain off and drift pleasantly and easily into deep relaxing sleep.

So in addition to the 2.7 litres of water I need every day I also make sure to eat food that is healthy and easy for my body to assimilate and is fresh and grown on healthy soil with all the minerals contained that my body needs.

Where I consider it necessary I supplement with appropriate minerals and enzymes to ensure my body has all the things it needs to remain healthy.

These supplements and the right foods enable my nervous system to be balanced and a balanced nervous system enables me to switch off and sleep anytime I choose.

Some clients I see haven’t been able to sleep properly for over 20 years and nothing has been able to help them except sleeping pills.

Now, sleep is a natural event. It comes after a full day of work or play and is generally available to us anytime we want it. When we’re in balance it comes easily.

However, when we’re out of balance because we are carrying high stress loads or have experienced shock (even PTSD) or are dwelling on anything at a conscious or subconscious level or are trying to will ourselves to go to sleep it can all go horribly wrong.

Lack of sleep can be the underlying issue in many disease states. Your body requires rest and it requires sleep. Just ask any young Mother… or Father for that matter! Lack of sleep is an important issue that needs to be addressed in any Naturopathic Consultation.

The funny thing is when Carey Reams (The creator of RBTI Analysis) worked all this out over 80 years ago he found nearly everyone felt better and performed better when they drank the right amount of water and ate the right foods for their body.

Those foods must have all the minerals required by the body as those minerals enabled the body to make the right amount of enzymes so the food could be digested. In addition he knew good health was impossible without the right amount of sleep.

With his background as a soil scientist he knew how to grow healthy crops and animals and he just transferred that knowledge to growing and restoring health to people.

If you want you and your children to have optimum performance at work, home, school, in sports or just generally, it will pay to make sure you and they consistently drink just water at the rate of 33 ml per kg of weight.

And learn what the right foods are to keep your body in optimal health. And make sure that any matter of poor sleeping habits is addressed.

Disease is, in the main, a product of poor food choices that have failed to support the energy and functions of the body. Any plant or animal that gets inadequate minerals or enzymes from the soil or food they eat is liable to become sick and die.

This is why vets study nutrition as one of the keys to keeping animals healthy, and why soil experts are employed to make sure there are the right minerals in the soil to ensure a healthy pasture. Any stress affects our ability to pick up minerals and to make enzymes.

Lack of sleep is a major stress and the body needs time to repair and SLEEP is that time.

To find out more I suggest you undertake an RBTI Analysis to discover the affects your diet and stress are having on your biochemistry.

As Carey Reams said “the first day that the body fails to take in the minerals that it needs is the first day of ill health.” He could have added as Dr Howell did “Without enzymes, life itself would not be possible”.

And without sleep and the right quality of sleep our body lacks the time and rest to repair itself.

The more consistent use and the better quality of water and food, with the right balance of minerals, enzymes and sleep, the better the outcomes for you and your children.
