Keeping Our Bodies Healthy

Work sometimes has a bad reputation in our world. But there is something worse than work, and that is boredom. At least that is what Drs. Kathryn Rost and G. Richard Smith of the University of Arkansas say. After analyzing the mental health of heart attack survivors, they concluded that one factor which greatly reduced the chances of depression was going back to work.

   We humans are not getting the minerals and especially magnesium we need because modem agricultural methods, including widespread use of N P K fertilizer, over farming, loss of protective ground cover and trees, and lack of humus have made soils vulnerable to erosion. The result is a reduced nutrient content of crops. N P K fertilizer is highly acidic. It disrupts the pH (acid/alkaline) balance of the soil, as does acid rain. Acid conditions destroy soil microorganisms. It is the job of these microorganisms to transmute soil minerals into a form that is usable by plants. In the absence of these microbes, these minerals become locked up, unavailable to the plant. Stimulated by the N P K fertilizer, the plant grows, but it is deficient in vital trace minerals. In the absence of trace minerals, plants take up heavy metals (such as aluminum, mercury and lead) from the soil. Between 1950 and 1975, the calcium content in one cup of rice dropped 21 percent, and iron fell by 28.6 percent. [i]

People are emotionally fragile when sick, and being told you have cancer or AIDS can completely shatter a person's emotional world. Daniel Goleman explains in his book Emotional Intelligence that this is due to the fact that normally "our mental well-being is based in part on the illusion of invulnerability." Most physicians have no clue to the strategic importance of this vulnerability; no clue what vulnerability really means thinking as they do that it has something to do with weakness as opposed to strength. "Sickness, especially a severe illness bursts that illusion, attacking the premise that our private world is safe and secure. Suddenly we feel weak, helpless, and vulnerable," continued Goleman.
