Sunday and Half Way

Sunday
I've been here for 2 weeks now, and this place just keeps getting better and better, and I, feel better and better.
i had a muscular and neurological massage today with a guy called Frank. a big guy.
i didn't sleep very well last night, i was a little stiff, i'm rebuilding my muscles quickly and they are probably getting all tangled up somehow.

anyway, when i walked into the treatment room with Frank, i could barely get my feet on the bed, he had to lift me up. i quickly explained to him my symptoms, and he went straight into my legs. OUUUUUUUCCCCCCHHHHHHHHH
he was as rough as they come. he was not shy. singing away in country western, Oh Boy what have we got here, and drilling away into my muscles. i was screaming, and he was singing i hear ya. his fingers were like robots drilling into my nerves and waking between my bones. he gave a new definition to pain. a delicious kind of pain, when you know it's good for you. as he pushes on your pressure points, the nerve is tight and slowly loosens up. as it loosens, the pain goes away gradually. you just keep breathing slowly and try not to scream too much. But Oy Boy did it feel good. i was a new man. my toes were starting to move for the first time in 5 weeks, little nerves were popping loose, tingling sensation all over my body. I love Frank, he did not mess around, he got on with the job like a real pro, no pain no game. then he worked his way up through my back, and sorted my neck out too. what a Sunday treat.

a quick jump in the hot sea mineral water pool, relax those muscles and then lunch.

i rested in the afternoon chatting to other guests here. very chilled and relaxed day.

i've got some info for you on Food Combining
it's fascinating, why don't they teach us this stuff at school? so simple, but yet so important.

think of you digestive system as a motor way. it's approximately the length of your body. think of food as different types of cars, and there is only one lane.
first of all, drink your water 10-15 minutes before your food, then no water for 2 hours after your food. water dilutes all you digestive enzymes making the digestion process twice as difficult and less productive.

rule 1. Do not mix carbohydrates and protein. this is the most common eating habit. all vegetables are carbohydrates except for avocado, onions, garlic, ginger, and flowers, these are the bisexual ones..
dairy and meats are protein and are often eaten with rice, potatoes, bread. not that we should be eating these.
Peanut butter and bread, most cereal mixes, this is the vegetarian world etc...

it creates over 120 chemicals in the body, the main one being sulfate. the bad smell. these chemicals are considered the primary cause of most illnesses.

Protein should be consumed at lunch time mainly.

Rule 2. Fruits should be max 15% of your diet, only when you are healthy, on top form. anyone with diabetes or chronic disease should not eat any.
3 categories of fruits - 1 and 2 can mix, 2 and 3 can mix occasionally. better not mix. most fruits are picked unripe, to give it shelf life, makes sense, no? picking them unripe means they are not properly formed and nutritionally malformed.
Acid/ Citrus - Oranges etc..
Sub Acid - Most fruits
Sweet - dry fruits, dates. should only be eaten by athletes, highly exercised people.

if you are having fruit juice, dilute 90% water, 10% juice!

an interesting information. they have found a way to stop fruits to perish. they expose it to a certain radio wave which kills the living enzymes in the fruits, stops the fruit being alive. so the fruit looks the same as it should do, but its been neutralized. if you leave it on your kitchen top, it will slowly dehydrate, get smaller and just get old, it will not rot. there is nothing to rot, it's dead. this is how much they are tampering with food!

Rule 3. Fruits & Vegetables do not mix. they have different enzymes which should not be mixed. fruits are the fastest to digest 1.5 hrs, vegetables over 2.5 hrs.
tomatoes are fruits. it's another example of how the industry miss represents information. they should be eaten on their own.

Rule 4. Melon to be eaten on their own. it takes 15 minutes for a melon to go through the body.

Sometimes i think all this information might be just too overwhelming. you're probably thinking this is all impossible to follow.
the point is we have never ben thought how to eat healthy. everything we do is pretty much wrong and it's based on what the industry trying to sell us.
these guys have been doing 60 years of research into healthy eating, Food as a healing tool, they know what they are talking about.
the way i look at it is, we need to think about why we eat. if we want to eat because of taste and the "faux" feel good factor, then at least beware of what you are doing to your body. if you actually want to get a benefit, energy life from your food, then these points should be taken into account. it all make sense, it's mother nature. i clearly understand the concept that different types of food ie protein takes longer to breakdown and digest that let's carbohydrate. you don't mix diesel and petrol in the same tank, do you?

what they say here is
It's Not The Food In Your Life,
It's The Life In Your Food.
