The human body is designed to breathe clean air and not to ingest smoke, drugs or industrial pollution. The human body is designed to drink clean water and not to indulge in an excess of stimulants or depressants. The human body is designed to be lean and muscular, with clear lines of definition produced from hours of moderately hard physical work. Life is difficult and we must accept those difficulties. We must be encouraged to deal with our problems, but we must not have unrealistic expectations for attaining success or avoiding failure.
Unrealistic expectations lead directly to stress and, indirectly, to illness.
Although avoiding these errors necessitates a considerable change in the lifestyle of both the average American and American industry, the potential benefits can be estimated from the fact that such diseases as diverticulitis, kidney failure, dialysis, gallstones, diabetes, osteoporosis, hypertension, coronary artery disease, stroke, and numerous cancers, including some breast, uterine, prostate and colon cancer, are and can be publicly viewed as virtually preventable. Yet a program with the central vision on prevention is not a pie in the sky idea, but a concrete goal which could be implemented gradually, which has the potential to stop much human waste and suffering, and which would involve patients in their own health care. This could function as a model for private employers. A non-profit holistic health organization dedicated to the reversal and prevention of virtually all diseases simultaneously.
