Their desperate tug o wars with the angel of death for last minute extensions are futile at best in their advanced state of deterioration. These ghoulish bids to preserve life using heroic measures could, in most cases, have been avoided by simply adhering to common sense dietary habits. Most chronic suffering and deterioration of organ functions are a result of a chemical imbalance brought about by over-consumption and poor food choices. These imbalances result in dis-ease. The key to simplified health care is learning to take responsibility for one s own health through education, exercise, strengthening the immune system, eating judiciously, and regular checkups with a health care provider that one can trust and interact with like an intelligent adult.
Doctors live off the other three quarters.
Thousands of years ago, wise men had already found out that the key to a long and healthy life is simple self-discipline. As Gentle Survivalists, I hope we are working to maintain our earthly temples in a state of balance and health. Give them premium fuel in the form of fresh seasonal foods, regular internal cleansing, periodic fasting, some hard work or exercise every day, and the proper amount of sleep. If we learn to listen to the wisdom of our bodies now, we won t have to relinquish all rights to it in the hands of some doctor practicing medicine at the close of our lives. We need not be poked, prodded, and hooked up to machines to see how many more days or weeks science can squeeze out of us, when we deserve to leave our tabernacles in quiet dignity.
