CATHEDRAL CARES ABOUT YOUR
HEALTH PRINCIPLES TO CONSIDER FOR
BETTER HEALTH
HEREDITY- This is what you are given from your parents, grandparents and great grandparents. If your mother or father had heart trouble or any organ of their body
that did not work the way God intended then you may
have a weakness toward that organ. If there is a history
of disease in the family you should take extra care of
your health regarding that disease. Heredity is something
you are born with. However, it is what you do and how
you live with what God gives you that will determine
your health.
DIET- It is said “You are what you eat.” While Heredity does play a large role in everyone’s health, it is not the
only factor. A diet with good old common sense is essential! By eating the food God has given us, you will
strengthen the organs of the body. You will have pep,
vigor and be full of life. What does a proper good old
common sense diet mean? A diet chuck full of natural
God-given food. We can always remind ourselves that
what man makes he makes for a profit (money) what
God makes He makes with love, for man’s good. Eat
abundantly of herbs, raw or gently cooked vegetables,
fruits of all kinds and nuts. By eating the natural foods
God has given us we strengthen the entire body, and
most importantly cleanse and purify the blood. Eat natural foods as often as possible. The Bible says.” Herbs
were given to man as his food and medicine.
WILL- Your mental state of mind. How much do we
want to be well, free of disease, discomfort and pain.
You and you alone can improve the heredity factor. Eat
the proper food with good old common sense. Keep the
body clean; exercise each day. Your good health is a
lifelong commitment of you will, your attitude, and
you’re thinking. Always remember, God loves you and
wants you to be healthy.
EXERCISE-Exercise means staying active. Look to
each day as a day of activity. To be able to work is a
blessing. Try each day to take a good long walk. Do not
be afraid to use your body the way God intended. Exercise so that you breathe deeply. Oxygen is very important to your body’s needs. Research has shown that
people in nursing homes, both men and women, in their
70’s 80’s even 90s, who have been on an exercise program feel better and their health has improved. They
even feel better, and their health has improved. They
even feel better about themselves. Do not let a day go
by without some form of exercise
