The Essential Things We Put Into Our Bodies

We need to put very few things into our bodies to make them function optimally: (1) fresh, pure air, (2) pure water, and (3) foods that we're biologically adapted to (fruits and vegetables). Everything else that you could possibly put into your body is NOT needed and should be kept out, because they will only disrupt that finely tuned body of yours. 

Fresh air: This is first in importance, because, as you know, you'd die within minutes without fresh air. Outside air is best, preferably as far away from pollution as possible. Your body already knows how to breathe and how much air it needs. You don't need to do anything fancy here; just allow your body to breathe naturally. If it needs more air, it will automatically breathe deeper or more frequently. No need to do special breathing techniques, deep breathing exercises, etc. That just messes things up. Your breath is tied to your heartbeat; if you start artificially breathing, you mess up your heartbeat and all the functioning that is in sync with it (Remember the Law of Order?).

Pure water: This is second in importance, because you'd die within a couple of days without it. Your body needs pure water, as in H2O. Anything more than this is artificial and is NOT needed: no H2O with electrolytes; no H2O with fructose added; or with vitamins or minerals added; no H3O (is there such a thing?). Hopefully, you get my point...Pure H2O is exactly what your body needs and nothing more. That's what it's adapted to after all these millions of years. The distilled water contained in fruit is the absolute best you can get, but you might need to supplement with pure distilled water (you know, the kind in jugs), especially if you're new to the natural hygiene way of life, or else are very active. You know you need to boost your H2O intake if you're not peeing 8-12 times on average during each 24-hour period, if your pee is dark in color, or if your pee is wimpy in volume.

Fresh, ripe raw, organic fruits, supplemented with leafy greens and vegetables (notice the emphasis on fruits) are third in importance. (The longest anyone has gone without food is something like 370 days, although I wouldn't try this!)  Fruits and vegetables contain all the nutrients your body needs in the exact proportions and ratios your body needs them. How much easier can it get??  A friend of mine challenged me on this, making claims about the depleted topsoil, etc., and therefore, the need for supplementation. Well, her argument might be true--if you are relying on foods that are topsoil dependent, like vegetables, leafy greens, grains, legumes, root vegetables, etc. That's why it's so important to stoke your diet with fruits over vegetables. The roots of fruit trees are not topsoil dependent; they reach deeply into the earth, where nutrients are (still) rich and plentiful and unchanged since, like, the beginning of time. So, no problem here!

That's it! That's all you need to be putting into your body. Now, isn't that grrreat news!
