COCONUT

    Coconut is divine food gifted by mother nature. It is highly misunderstood food.  Raw coconut is not at all cholesterol.  It is cholesterol only when it is cooked and in oil form.  When coconut is eaten as it is or taken as coconut milk it is harmless.  Coconut is highly fibrous and hence helps in constipation problems.  It has lots and lots of nutrition.  The more and more height a tree grows above the ground the more the root  should penetrate inside the earth to make the tree withstand. The roots of a coconut tree will be strong, tube shaped and lengthy.  The roots penetrates the earth deeper takes the nutrition inside the earth filter it and gives it in the shape of coconut.  If the height of  a tree is more the energy of the food it gives will also be more because it overcomes the gravitational force to grow to such a height.  It has no branches and all its energy is spent in growing upwards.  It absorbs the nutrition from 5 elements of nature.

  for 10 months to give us coconut.  In Hindu culture coconut occupies an important place in the worship of God.

     Spiritually man has 3 eyes and coconut also has 3 eyes.  Both coconut and human embryo takes 10 months to mature.  Human being is the only living thing in the world who is  capable of climbing up a coconut tree break the coconut and eat it. This showsthe close relationship between man and coconut.

    We keep precious things safely by keeping it water proof, shake proof and by keeping it in lockers.  Nature knowing the preciousness of coconut had made it shake proof with the fibres outside, water proof with the shell inside and locked it with a outer cover. 

    It is a 2-in -1 food.  It quenches hunger by the nut  and thirst by the tasty water inside.  It can be eaten even by infants, children, adults according to its stage of maturity.

    New born and infants-tender coconut and diluted coconut milk

    Children                 -slightly matured which can be easily chewed

    Adults        -matured coconut with water inside it.

    Aged        -tender coconut and coconut milk (for    

            those without teeth)

    Raw coconut has only unsaturated fat which is harmless.  It has more fibrous content which strengthens the bones.  It cools the body.  It is also available cheap throughout the year.  The CHEAP AND BEST FOOD COCONUT is wasted by taking oil from it.  If this is avoided and coconut is used as food, food scarcity and diseases won't be there.  If taken along with dates and banana it makes a delicious and complete meal.  It can be taken as breakfast, lunch and dinner.  I wish the readers to make the best use of coconut.

HOW DOES ALLOPATHY MEDICINES WORK?

    Allopathy medicines gives temporary relief to elimination of toxins ( which takes place through head ache, fever, vomiting, diarrhoea, sleep, body pain, skin diseases) by suppressing the toxins within the body itself.  By this system of medicine only SUPPRESSION takes place. Then how it appears that the disease is cured?

Two things happen here.

    1) Suppression as already mentioned and temporary relief is obtained.
    2) We lose appetite, feel tired and sleepy when we fall sick.
    So we stop taking food take rest and sleep a lot.  Loss of appetite is body's signal that something is wrong in the body.  Now the energy spent on digestion is diverted to heal the body.  (similarily taking rest and sleeping also helps in healing)
    So to some extent we get  cured by allopathy medicines temporarily.  But the toxins suppressed in the body and the harmful chemicals taken in the form of medicines pave way to chronic diseases like heart diseases, asthma, cancer, kidney failure. ( eg. cold suppressed through medicines end in asthma).  If we allow the elimination to take place when we suffer from minor diseases by being on a diet of natural food we can escape from chronic diseases.  The body will clean itself now and through elimination process.
   
        

FASTING

  
    SPAIN PROVERB:

    It is better to lose a meal than call 100 doctors

    SCOTLAND PROVERB:

    One who eats till he falls ill should fast until he recovers.

    Fasting is the best medicine. It gives rest to the digestive system. Deaths due to over eating are more than deaths due to starving.  All the animals undergo fasting when they fall ill till they recovers.
Example. Goat, Cow, Dog. Only man continues to eat even when he is sick.


HOW TO FAST?

    Only water should be taken when thirsty.  Those who can’t can take juices.  After the sickness has reduced juicy fruits and fleshy fruits can be included little by little for a few days.  Then after recovery nuts can be included.  During fasting taking rest is a must.  If airy places are available rest can be taken there.  Energy losing activities such as watching TV, talking more, listening to music, walking long distances should be avoided.  The body should be helped to divert all its energy to cure the body.  Due to fasting the toxin level in the body gets reduced. Since the toxin level is reduced the diseases also
gets reduced.

ACUPRESSURE

     This is a method of applying pressure (not acupuncture and there is no necessity for needles.) to the hands and legs.  One important thing to remember here is Acupressure alone will not cure diseases. Naturopathy is the basic foundation to come out of the disease. Acupressure when done along with natural food gives faster relief from diseases.  It is based on the principle that nerve endings are present for all the organs of the body in our hands and legs.  If pressure is applied on the particular point on hands or legs for the affected organ a small electric impulse is sent to the corresponding organ and the affected organ begins to get cured. PRESS WHERE IT PAINS is the basic principle of acupressure. The nerve ending of the affected organ can be identified by the pain in the particular point.  This pain will be different from the pressure applied.  Pain indicates that there is some problem in that organ.

     The endocrine glands in our body Pituitary, Pineal, Adrenal, Pancreas, Solar plexus, thyroid and sexual glands determines a person’s character according to their functioning and non-functioning.  Proper functioning gives rise to positive characters like loving, cheerful, braveness, courage, determination, tolerance etc. Non- functioning results in characters like anger, adamancy, stealing tendency, cruelty, lust, fearfulness, suicidal tendency etc. Hence persons with psychological problems can be given treatment in endocrine glands in addition to naturopathy for astonishing results.  Even prisoners’ characters can be changed by giving treatment in these glands.

     Acupressure rollers can be purchased at shops for giving pressure to all points other than endocrine glands. They can be used to give pressure even when we watch TV or work on computers.  For Endocrine glands pressure has to be given by thumb in vertical position.

     For more details book HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS VOLI AND VOLII  Written by shri Devendra vora can be referred.  This book was recommended by India’s former Prime Minister Morarji Desai who lived more than 90 years.  This book is also available in languages like Tamil, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, etc.     Points to be pressed for various diseases( including cancer, brain tumor, AIDS, sugar, blood pressure)is given at the back of the book. By referring to this list points to be pressed can be found at by the patient himself.  Points to be pressed to overcome bad habits like smoking, drinking, drugs is also given.

JUICE FASTING

          Juice fasting helps when the patient cannot be kept on complete fasting. (On water). It has both advantages and disadvantages.
    
ADVANTAGES:
(1)Since the energy spent on digestion is very less (Since the intake is in liquid form) the body diverts its energy for purification of the system.
(2) Energy absorption is easier for the body. 
(3) Juices of juicy fruits (Grapes, Orange, Sweet lemon, Pomegranate with high glucose content) will help in case of seriously ill patients to recover fast.
(4) Very sick patients will find it easy to digest.

DISADVANTAGES:

(1)   Since the intake is in liquid form there is no fibre content in the intake.
(2)   Not advisable for patients with severe piles and constipation problems.  They are recommended to take natural food as it is.If the patient is kept on juice fasting taking enema once a day is advised. (If
bowel movements are not regular and constipation arises)
