David Edmunds thanked Lyn McLean for her Presentation.
Lyn's presentation was on "Health for Life", and drew on her consultancy work in this area. Lyn has lectured and written extensively on health and life issues. Her web site can be found at http://www.energyconnections.com.au.
Lyn started out by defining health as not just the absence of disease, it is a balance of the body, mind, emotions, and spirit. Her 5 steps to good health require that the following be considered:
- Body
- Environment
- Emotions
- Mind
- Spirit
The reason that diet is important is the the body has 1012 cells, and these are largely replaced every year. If we don't take in the right nutrients, our bodies then can't properly replace themselves. However, the way that foods are grown, handled, stored, and processed, all impact their nutritional value, making the choice of foods even more difficult. And while we may take supplements to augment our intake of nutrients, only 10-20% of nutrients in pills are absorbed into the body. Liquid supplements allow the absorption of 98% or nutrients, and so are much better, but the best of all are isotonics. Lyn sells isotonics.
The environment is also a factor in good health in many ways, for instance:
- Electro-magnetic radiation (EMR) is a major pollutant in our society, with meter boards, clock radios, in fact, any electrical device, creating an EMR field. Mobile phones have also been found to create intense radiation hazards.
- environmental chemicals can be found in carpets, but the worst pollutant in this respect is fragrances which are cocktails of hundreds of chemicals.
The best way to treat your body is to drink lots of water and eat whole foods.
