during the dark years that followed my diving accident, I am different from my healthy eating habits. This variance is partly due to my limited control over my diet, when I lived in a hospital or group home. It was also on my health-conscious reduced. Above all, disgusted with life, I was proportional hedonistic and suicidal thoughts. I sought solace in gustatory pleasure of danger to my health. To be exact, I often overindulged my fondness for fatty and savory foods or sweet, with the result that I gained weight and lost my edge? that is, a part of my vitality. This loss was threatening. It has an abundance of vitality to accept and overcome the difficulties in achieving happiness. The more I was devitalized and consequently weak, the more I was likely to be intimidated by this difficulty.
Devitalization was the worst form of poverty. In a state of weakness, it was tempting to deny that happiness was possible or worth the trouble, and select simple: convenience and carelessness or death. I've never been into temptation, for this disease, but my overindulgence in fatty and savory foods or sweet to minimize my risks vitality and my depression worse, so my hedonistic and suicidal tendencies. I was in a vicious circle, or rather a downward spiral to hell.
Fortunately before it was too late, I was disgusted with my way of life, as opposed to life itself. I was less a victim of circumstances than a fool who is about their own plight, because of its negative attitude and self-destructive behavior. I began my uphill journey to wisdom and health.
Health is the basis for any human power, even if it is bad, in this case, it offers much less vitality and longevity, as if she is good. I am committed to do everything well in order to maximize my potential to live and love.
In fact, health is not just a question of vitality and longevity, but also a matter of common sense. A healthy mind is a complement to a healthy body. Moreover, this is dependent on the other side. This dependence had dawned to me with blinding clarity, a few months after I had in my apartment and improved my diet. Until then, I had a lot of health books. They had helped me define my nutritional needs more wisely.
My body needs a balanced and moderate amounts of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals to function well. Corresponding that foods containing these nutrients had to be properly chewed to aid digestion and absorption (this is not for the fiber: a type of carbohydrate that the body does not digest or absorb). Proper chewing reduces food mash and proportionally increases the effect of digestive juices on them or the availability of nutrients, which are ready for absorption. I thoroughly by this simple task, in the middle of life.
At the beginning, carbohydrates are simple or complex carbohydrates, which I usually from fruit, honey, milk products, turnips, rutabagas, potatoes, legumes (beans, lentils or peas), nuts, seeds, grains, and bread, cereal or pasta made from these grains. Simple sugars and digestible complex sugars as an energy source and to the synthesis of DNA and RNA molecules: the genetic information and the genetic messengers of the body to regenerate and reproduce. Indigestible complex carbohydrates, known as fiber, are capable of promoting the elimination of waste through the intestines. Refined foods are depleted of these fibers, without the constipation is a predictable result that does not bode well. With the exception of special occasions, I resolutely avoided.
Lipids are two subdivisions: saturated, single or multiple unsaturated fatty acids (with an acid component in some of them? Ie, as compared to phospholipids triglycerides, the pure oils and fats) and cholesterol, which is a unique fatty acid combination. How simple sugars and digestible complex sugars, fatty acids and saturated fats simply serve as an energy source. In addition, they help to maintain the integrity of the body tissue. Unsaturated fatty acids and cholesterol also contributes to this integrity and are used for a variety of important functions which the cardiovascular, digestive, endocrine system and immune system.
A particular feature of unsaturated fats is their instability. In the heat, light or air, as in the processing, cooking intensive, daily use or longer, they may suffer damage and be harmful. Given this fact, I was careful to eat that food, which they? such as nuts and seeds, and the oil from the two? in its natural (unprocessed and if possible, uncooked) and fresh (intact) condition. When cooking was necessary, as in the case of fish or tofu, which is one of these foods, I grabbed the steaming or baking in preference to frying and proceeded with caution, without the risk of under cooking. I have the same basic principles to the food, the fats, which are simple, such as peanuts, almonds, olives and avocado, and the oil from one of them, even if these fats are less unstable than their polyunsaturated counterparts. What cholesterol, found only in animal products and saturated fats, found mainly in the fields of agriculture-animal products, they have a reputation for causing arterial blockage and organ dysfunction, if without restraint. I limited my intake of them at the end of a largely vegetarian diet where animal flesh was the exception, not the rule. Actually, I had exercised restraint in my consumption of fats and unsaturated fats, just good. The opposite, as the lack of moderation, is a health hazard.
now for proteins. There are several macromolecules, that a large number of amino acids (nitrogen molecules, which in twenty-two different forms). In the course of digestion, these macromolecules in these molecular components, which then act as raw material or components for the manufacture of new molecules or new macromolecules (polypeptides that are smaller than proteins or proteins) required for our physiological needs in many areas: metabolism, blood, mucus, skin and tendons, the muscles and the endocrine system, immune and nervous systems. These molecular components act when the body produces carbohydrates and fats to meet its energy needs. Ansonsten sind sie von ihrer stickstoffhaltigen Teil mobilisiert und in die Erfüllung dieser Anforderungen. This is a waste of valuable amino acids and a burden on the kidneys, with the removal of nitrogen-free portion of the liver after it has in urea. As it happened, my main sources of protein? namely, legumes, nuts, grains, and bread, cereal or pasta made from these grains, along with dairy products and eggs? also rich in carbohydrates and fats. Here are the fats, which were important, or simply, whereas the polyunsaturates were not a reasonable means to meet my energy requirements, as the many other important roles they played.
Finally, minerals and vitamins are a group of some thirty substances, the carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. A deficiency in one of them can be a bodily function so that impede and endanger the health of a person. Together, as raw materials or components useful as an agent or even useful, they help in many processes: vision, nerve impulses and neurotransmission, muscle contraction, digestion and absorption, regulation of blood glucose and the metabolism, respiration, energy production, regeneration and reproduction, formation and maintenance of bones and teeth, blood clotting, protecting against free radicals (harmful molecules or atoms), and immunity. My usual carbohydrates, lipids and proteins already me with minerals and vitamins, all the more so since they are not refined. Finishing is a terrible refinement exhausted that fiber and nutrients in foods. However, to make sure I have enough minerals and vitamins, I rounded the usual sources, with additional vegetables: carrots, radishes, cauliflower, red cabbage, green vegetables, green or not green, garlic and onions. I drank plenty of water to boot, but not during or immediately after eating, so I with my digestion by flooding my stomach. Drinking water typically contains one minutes quantity of minerals. More importantly, he has the ability to replenish body fluids and cleanse the system of unwanted substances.
The best thing about my diet has improved, that in a few months, my state of mind had a turn for the better in a big way. Never before had I thought so clearly and felt so enterprising. I was full of vitality and soon in the writing of my book? Efficiency is crucial. It turned out I was much more comprehensive rationalization of the situation and the challenge of leading a fulfilling life, because I was much more alive. My energy was dramatic. I had three hours sleep, rest another two hours, and go about my business for the remaining nineteen hours. In conjunction with this increase, my mood was unusually high. Circumstances alone can not cover this increase. My relationship with my girlfriend (the very friendly and gentle, and quite beautiful nurse) was in the doldrums and on the verge of cancellation. My new apartment, on the other hand, was a clear improvement, but what changed for the better in the few months in question was primarily the state of my body, from which my state of mind. I was living with health, although I still have problems, the bladder is weakened somewhat experienced myself occasionally. This health, both physical and mental. I had a vigorous and joyous sense of that, me and especially writing.
In the effort to be healthy, a proper diet is not everything. Fresh air and regular exercise should be considered as part of this effort. There are two types of exercises, both of which would before and after, as well as warm-up and cooldown period in order to avoid injuries.
The first type of exercise is anaerobic, not the intake of oxygen. An example of anaerobic exercise is weightlifting. Done often in vigorous workouts, it strengthens the muscles and bones. The second and most positive kind of exercise is aerobic, depending on the intake of oxygen. An example of aerobics is jogging. Done every day or a few times a week, for at least fifteen minutes (enough to significantly and sustainably increase the activity of the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, for the supply of oxygen in body tissues), there are numerous health advantages. Besides strengthening the muscles and bones, which it raises stamina, improves the treatment of stress, improves mood, strengthens the immune system function, reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke, and helps to prevent obesity in combination with diseases such as diabetes and hypertension, often associated with this condition. In a nutshell, fresh air and regular exercise are important aspects of a healthy lifestyle. They lead to a stronger, feeling better, and probably live longer.
