Counsels on Health

Disease and its causes

Health Defined

Þ Before we begin to look at disease and its causes, it would be well to first gain an understanding of what is health, or at least its meaning.

Þ According to the World Health Organization (WHO), health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well being. This is a very good definition of which I would like to add spiritual well being.

Þ It is important to note that as humans we are a whole being and whatever affects one part  of the body affects the other, so we can say that perfect health is the absence of disease in any form whether mental, physical, social or spiritual.

 Cause of disease

Þ Disease never comes without a cause, the way is first prepared and disease invited in by the disregard of the laws of health. Some may have not been aware that such a thing exists.

Þ Just as there are traffic laws, government laws, there are laws of health that have been given to us by a loving God for the proper maintenance and protection of our bodies.

Þ The human family has been and still suffers due to ignorance of or negligence to the laws of health.

Before I share the eight laws of health, there is an important point I would like to make here, perfect health begins with perfect circulation, always keeping in mind that the life is found in the blood, so whatever affects the blood positively or negatively, affects the body, and hence affects your health.

The laws of health have been called the eight natural doctors, simply because if followed, they will guide you to the optimum health you have always wanted, helping you to have life and might I say to have it more abundantly.
