ENERGIZING THE BODY
By Peter Rose FSI
It is warmer, and I am not talking about the inevitable cycle of the planet earth, that causes climate change. I am talking about summer. In summer we wear less, we are out of doors more, and most people get more physical exercise than they do during winter months. Many people also change their diet. How does this affect our health and how can we alleviate adverse changes?
Used correctly, the summer is a time to restock the body with vital vitamins and energy to see us through next winter. Used incorrectly and the body is depleted rather that energized.
RE-STOCKING THE BODY
Re-stocking consists of four phases. Input, Conversion, Distribution and Storage.
Input is obvious. Conversion needs good metabolic processing.
Conversion is down to the digestive system and this involves flows of liquids; bile, digestive acids etc.
Distribution needs good blood flow. The blood and cardio-vascular system are the means of distribution. Storage is dependent on a number of factors, including your personal metabolism, the level of healthy activity in the organs and flesh.
