LISTENING TO OUR BODIES - To stay alive and healthy, we should shake off arrogance from our person and accept the fact that there is no perfect body. If we have to believe what is said in the Bible, the Godly-decreed life of man is supposedly until before he reaches the age of 70. We should therefore make the most out of life by being sensitive to its manifestations.

WE SHOULD “LISTEN” TO OUR BODY

By Apolinario Villalobos

If we have to believe what is said in the Bible, the Godly-decreed life of man is supposedly until before he reaches the age of 70.

While I advocate the alternative herbal medicines which are already accepted even by licensed scientific medical practitioners, the “basic” prescribed drugs which are considered as beta blockers such as the “statins” (mine is atorvastatin) and losartan are still necessary.

They have their own immediate effect, while those of the herbs have their own, too. Along this line, it is a fact that factory-produced drugs are clones of medicinal herbs, but enhanced with various chemicals to extend their shelf life.

As regards the stroke or heart attack, in particular, there are many natural alternatives for its prevention, many of which have already been packed in gel, capsule and tablets, as well as, made more palatable in the form of syrup.

It is important that we “listen” to our body by being sensitive to manifestations of what is wrong with our system.

Our intestines, for instance, grumble if we have overeaten for the job that they could not undertake effectively, so we either have loose bowel movement (LBM) or constipation, and worse, we vomit or puke.

If we feel constant pain in certain parts of our body, by all means, that particular area must immediately be examined by a doctor. If our skin shows tell-tale signs that suggest cancer, we should see a doctor immediately.

If we experience regular chest pains, dizziness, numbness of any of our legs or arms, we might already be experiencing the onset of a mild stroke, etc.

For those who are fond of uncontrollably quaffing alcoholic drinks, they should minimize their intake soonest as they feel signs of high blood pressure (HBP) after downing 5 bottles of beer or more.

Other indications for the inception of HBP are redness of the face and appearance of red spots all over the body, but most especially, dizziness.

For the health buffs who are fond of jogging or doing strenuous workouts, they should immediately see a doctor if they experience unusual shortness of breath and chest pain which they have not encountered before. They should not treat them as simple signs of fatigue.

To stay alive and healthy, we should shake off arrogance from our person and accept the fact that there is no perfect body, even if it is pampered by health drugs ... not even by high-tech therapies, one of which is stem cell intake by injection or orally.

If we have to believe what is said in the Bible, the Godly-decreed life of man is supposedly until before he reaches the age of 70.
