The Fountain of Youth WithinWritten by Mark Dayley
Each of us yearns to maintain our youthful appearance, energy and good health free from disease and sickness. We look for help from ‘discoveries of science’ and ‘breakthrough drugs’ and while significant progress in our understanding of human body and of life has been made, still we find that vital health and youthfulness we are looking for is elusive. What we ultimately come to recognize is that ‘Fountain of Youth’ lies ‘naturally’ within each of us. Looking at nature and lifestyles of cultures throughout history, we see what has proven to work over time. Diets including natural whole-foods, exercise, and clean environments are key to good health and longevity. Dr. John R. Christopher, H.H., N.D. has said, "Well over 90% of all disease comes from unclean bodies ..."

Good health is a combination of necessary rest, continuous exercise, nutritious foods, fasting, and even a positive happy attitude. In regards to need for nutrition, body can be likened to an expensive ore-processing machine. Mining low-grade deposits is like consuming foods low in nutrition. It takes large amounts of low-grade deposits (food low in nutrition) to produce precious metals (vitamins, minerals, etc.) sought after. Low-grade deposits also contain large amounts of waste materials, which cause extra work and unnecessary wear and tear on equipment (the body). It makes sense to mine higher-grade deposits (food high in nutrition) where more precious metals (vitamins, minerals, etc.) can be acquired with less work, and with less wear and tear on equipment (the body). “Living under conditions of modern life, it is important to bear in mind that preparation and refinement of food products either entirely eliminates or in part destroys vital elements in original material.” – United States Department of Agriculture Our "SAD" (Standard American Diet) diets of today, are generally comprised of refined and processed food (low grade deposits). When whole food is refined or processed, essential nutrients (vitamins, minerals, enzymes, fiber, etc.) are stripped away and lost. Processed or devitalized food lacks complete nutrition our bodies need. Here are a few suggestions from Dr. John R. Christopher's "Mucusless Diet" to help migrate to a more nutritious whole food diet providing good health:
