This is Why You Should Eat Raw For Better Health
Raw food is food cooked by the Sun and not by us! Eating fruits, veggies, nuts, and seeds in raw form retains the powerful enzymes, nutrients, and antioxidants contained in them. Raw food is also easy to digest and leaves no acidic residue. Read on to know more about the benefits of eating raw foods. Raw food is food that hasn't been cooked. Fruits, veggies, nuts & seeds, sprouts are a few examples of raw foods. Why eat raw? Here are a few reasons to eat raw foods: Alkaline - Foods should add to our alkaline reserve when consumed. Raw foods are very high on this quotient. Easy to digest and assimilate - Cooked foods place an extra burden on the digestive organs. Raw foods are easier to digest & assimilate. Nutrient-rich - When we add a wide variety of raw foods in our diet, we get all of the carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins & minerals in the best possible combinations, just as nature meant it to be. Aid digestion: Raw foods are rich in enzyme
Sunglasses - Does Mother Nature want us to wear them?
The necessity for wearing sunglasses to protect eyes from light and sunshine has been well established by ''the sunglass manufacturers'' which is quite ill-founded and not true. The manufacturers say that if you don't wear them every time your eyes come in contact with strong light, you are in danger of eye damage. This has become another multi-million dollar business. So, what is the truth? The fact that people who spend most of their lives in strong sunlight without sunglasses and still have good eye sights is completely ignored. The Arabs spend long hours in the desert under strong sunlight without harm to their eyes. The American -Indian spend most of his days in the sunshine. I have never seen a photograph of or known an Indian[ American] to wear sunglasses. The Eskimos live in the constant glare of reflected light from snow. The sunglass manufacturers have never been successful in convincing Eskimos that they need glasses to protect their eyes. Es
To Gluten or Not?
The number of gluten-free products is steadily increasing in the market today. You may be wondering what is gluten, is it harmful and if so, how to make a shift. This article aims to address these concerns so you can make an informed choice. What is gluten? Found in grains such as wheat, spelt, rye and barley, gluten gets its name from the Latin word glue. Gluten is a protein mix made of 2 main proteins: glutenin and gliadin. Gliadin is responsible for the rising of dough and glutenin gives it the elasticity. A grain mainly consists of 3 parts: bran, endosperm and germ. The endosperm is the starchy, energy sources of the grain rich in protein, vitamins and starch. When flours of grains which contain glutenin and gliadin are hydrated and kneaded, gluten is formed. Gluten is glue-like and imparts a smooth, chewy, elastic structure to the end product. Which foods contain gluten in higher amounts? Gluten is present in higher amounts in wheat. Wheat is a grain which is use
Managing Stress in Yogic Way
Stress is now considered to be a major risk factor for various cardiac and non-cardiac ailments. The victims are from all walks of life irrespective of their economic status, which most common in corporate sectors. With the fast pace of modern life, stress-related psychosomatic disorders ( certain disorders or ailments that are believed to be caused by stress factor which could affect our bodily systems with the active involvement of body and mind) such as heart attacks, peptic ulcers, arthritis, allergies, sexual problems, bowel disorders and so on are on rising in communities. In this article, I've tried to encapsulate a steady and credible solution to the chronic process of stress. It's been rightly said that nothing heals like nature! Similarly, ‘Yoga', which is the gift of nature and our Indian heritage, plays a pivotal role in managing one's stress most naturally. To apply it effectively to our daily life, let us try to understand this from the fundamenta
A guide to Earthenware Cooking: An enriching way to cook
Have you ever tasted a dish cooked in a claypot? Doesn't it taste better than a dish that is cooked in a metallic pot? The reason behind it is that the porous nature of earthen pots enables a better circulation of heat and moisture while cooking. In return, flavors and nutrients of the food are retained better. And hence, the taste. However, do you know the right way to cook while using a clay pot or how to clean it, how to keep it seasoned etc.? We have brought this comprehensive guide to you about cooking in earthenware. Read on to learn more about one of the healthiest ways to cook. Why Use Clay Pots for Cooking? There are numerous benefits of cooking in earthenware. After all, it has been the most natural way to cook since ages. Many people in villages still use earthen pots for daily cooking. Their adoption in Indian cities is now increasing, as followers of natural methods are becoming aware about their benefits: 1. Natural,
Why Circadian Rhythm Is The Key To Good Health
Our body carries on its functions in tune with a rhythm. When our daily actions like sleeping, eating, exercise etc are in tune with this rhythm, good health becomes effortless. Read on to understand what our body's circadian rhythm looks like and sift through the confusion to know when to eat, sleep, rest etc in alignment with this rhythm. Just as earth has its rythm of day & night, or of different seasons, body has its own natural rhythm. A circadian rhythm is any biological process that displays a repetitive cycle every 24 hours, i.e. the same set of functions happen again & again over a 24 hour period. For eg: You go to sleep at night & you are awake during the day – this same process happens every 24 hours. Every function of our body is designed to be in a certain rhythm, when we align our lifestyle to follow this rhythm, we feel good & keep healthy because our body is able to function at its optimum. Let's say you slept on time one night, y
NO TO TONA/ENEMA
Yes, humbly, I want to make it loud and clear: Unmindful and superstitious use of TONA/ENEMA has to be stopped to help the body to retain and maintain the real independent health. TONA is the smaller version of ENEMA, often recommended as remedies even by many Nature Cure practitioners to get rid of the problem of incidental-constipation, during the ACUTE conditions! Pure Nature Cure is not about remedies. We need to dive deeper into the Physics of VITALITY, to understand the dialectics of the incidental-constipation. The vitality is the energy with innate intelligence! Most of the rules of observatory-physics can be applied to explain the functioning of vitality. Energy is the capacity to work. Work is directly proportional to the force. Force is directly proportional to the pressure. According to Gay-Lussac's law about the relation between the pressure and temperature of gases, the pressure is directly proportional to the temperature. Tem
A Needful Conversation on Soil Theory Vs Germ Theory etc.
Question 1: According to the Pure Nature Cure (PNC), the TOXAEMIA happens before the GERM infestation. Then how would you refute the GERM THEORY, where a dog-bitten person gets rabies or somebody is bitten by mosquito gets malaria/dengue. Both of the persons were quite healthy, before the bites! Response 1: 1. Apparent health may not be real health! The presence of severe toxicity may stay subtle for long, till it's triggered! 2. Pathogens from dog or mosquito are hosted only if the body is TOXAEMIC, prior to the bites. Everyone does not get rabies or malaria, even s/he is bitten! 3. Rabies or malaria are the SYMPTOMS of toxaemic state. While the dog bite and mosquito bite are the TRIGGERS, respectively. 4. It is always if we take measures to suppress the symptoms, while the cause is retained, the health is affected further with the increment of TOXICITY due to the retention of the toxin. 5. In both cases, on the triggers, the body raises FEVER to get rid of the toxaem
LAW OF UNITY – A REVISIT (FOOD-WISE)
We need to compulsorily revisit the foundations of Nature Cure frequently to reinforce the dialectic understanding of Nature. In PSYsolution Alumni group, the discussions are prolifically continued on different aspects of understanding Nature. The human understanding is uniquely pursued by each one of us. Some can understand difficult aspect easily, on the other hand, the same person can take longer to understand an easy aspect. The beauty of the collective strive to explore Nature is - we mutually contribute towards each other's understanding, assimilation, execution and finally sharing to continue the chain of learning. Recently, there is a revisit needed on Law of Unity – one of the basic concepts of Nature Cure. The debate was on the statement – “Everything has got everything and we have the capability to extract anything out of anything”. “How can a bitter gourd and a potato be the same?” The functional analysis indeed showcase
VITALITY - the unique language
One of my favourite Indian movies is ‘Taare Zameen Par', released in 2007. The international version was titled as ‘Like Stars on Earth', directed by Aamir Khan, an actor turned director from India. This movie portrays a perennial problem of parents, not understanding the exact state of the child under the pressures of expectations and manmade ambitions. The protagonist of the movie is a 'dyslexic' child – Ishaan, who has (so-called) troubles in academics but developed a knack for innovative arts and paintings. Ishaan eventually proceeds to excel under the able guidance of a sensible teacher, Nikumbh. Nikumbh understood Ishaan's problem and helps him unshackle the enforced conventional regulations and explore the real creative sprees in him. In one scene, Nikumbh goes to explain the problem of the child to his parents. They initially were blaming the child for his ‘intentional mischievousness'. The father was terming th
Is Fish Good For Health?
India is blessed with an extensive shoreline. Seafood has been a part of our culture. Both, salt water and fresh water seafood are a staple in many parts of the country. However, is seafood really as health-promoting as widely believed? Is it necessary for the brain and heart health? Do you really need to eat fish to get Omega-3? What are the environmental impacts of eating fish? Read on to learn more. HEALTH OR HARM? 1. Fish Absorb Many Chemicals & Heavy Metals Our oceans are treated as a garbage dump - raw sewage, runoff from animal agriculture, harmful chemicals, microplastics, and trash, all find their way eventually into the ocean waters. So the fish accumulate pesticide residues and chemicals like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dioxins, DDT, drugs, heavy metals - such as mercury, and anything else that is released into the water. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are highly toxic industrial chemicals. Slow to break down, they accumulate at the bott
7 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Eat Eggs
Universally, eggs are one of the world's most consumed breakfast items. Cheap and quick to make, they are well-liked by bachelors, busy housewives, sports personnel, and fast food establishments as a convenient breakfast or snack. Famed as a super-food due to their protein content, are eggs really a ‘healthy' food that you should be consuming? Read on to know all about it. 1. The Protein Saga A whole egg is 32% protein and the egg white is 100% protein. The hen's egg is jam-packed with proteins, fats, cholesterol, vitamins, and minerals. After all, it is food to give birth to a new life. Infants, growing children, and adults actually need, at most, 5% of their calories from protein. Therefore, eggs and egg products are 6 to 20 times more concentrated in protein than we need. 2. High In Fats Eggs are more than 60% fat with zero fiber. Over consumption of fats and proteins can have serious health consequences like over-stre
Healthy Party Hacks - Balance Festivities & Health
Often people ask me how to manage a healthy lifestyle that's harmonious with nature and social life. Just because one is health conscious does not mean he surrenders to a hermit's lifestyle. Where there are problems, solutions show up if we stick to our principles and keep an open mind to recognise it. In the past, partying, celebrations, big gatherings were fewer than today. But the trend seems to be increasing and so is the decline in the health of people. The rate of consumption of animal foods has skyrocketed. The more widespread the food varieties at a social gathering, the more satisfied is the ego. Our ancestors lived relatively healthy lives even without a lot of raw food-reason being that they stuck to simple uncontaminated foods, disciplined consumption, regular fasting, mental poise, working hard under the Sun and led a stress-free lifestyle. Today most of the birthdays are celebrated in fast food joints, festivals are lavish, marriages are too loud, with plen
How To Select Fruits, Vegetables & Grains For Healthy Body & Mind
Though there is a lot of food produce available to us at many places around; more than at any previous point in human history; yet, many a time we end up buying them without much exploring and research. But by choosing the ‘right' produce, we can make the healthy and wholesome living we desire a daily reality. The path to good food starts with selecting the right produce, the ‘right' way and from the ‘right' place; and it doesn't have to be expensive! Produce refers to Grains (including millets,lentils), Vegetables, Fruits, Nuts, Seeds, and Spices, – all of which comprise the basic food groups. In the present day, what to eat is increasingly becoming an important question to ask oneself. But it is far more important and necessary to check ‘behind the scenes' of what's cooking. The recipe to good food starts with how wholesome the produce, which then becomes the ingredient are, how they got made and fr
4 Ways To Make Your Child Love Green Vegetables
Does your child turn up his nose at the sight of greens? Are mealtimes a constant struggle to get him to eat his greens? A few tricks mixed together with a good dose of patience can do the job. Read on to see if you can try some of these ideas in your home. Greens - palak, chaulai, methi, dhania, mint, bok choy, celery, mustard (sarson), bathua, radish leaves, carrot leaves, basil, curry leaves, etc. Leafy green vegetables are powerhouses of nutrition. Rich in several vitamins and minerals they should form an essential part of an everyday staple diet.

Quarantine Phase - The daily regime.
We all are going through this phase where we are not able to get out of the house and breathe in nature's light. This is the time wherein our mental, spiritual and physical fitness everything is really tested. Here are a few things which you can add in your daily routine to feel productive and enhance your daily growth. Do it with your family and bond together. Let us make the best out of this phase and use this opportunity to connect with one self-outside and inside. 1. Early Riser Yes, we are staying at home all day. But that should not be the reason to sleep in late. Sleeping in late disturbs the circadian rhythm of your body. Waking up early on time with the Sun is a great energy booster. The Sun helps in activating the cells in the body by providing melatonin which energizes you. So, get up early and you have the whole day to utilize and be productive. 2. Dance it out Dance has been found to be therapeutic and the best form of exercise. It not
Boost your health with this season of citrus fruits
Oranges, lemon, grapes! It is this time of the year in winter, when we get to eat all of these things filled with a sour and sweet touch.

30 Ways to Revamp Your Evening Snacks
In this article, we discuss the healthy alternatives that you can choose as evening snacks to make yourself fitter and better. These are easy to make recipes which you can carry to your workplace as well and beat the evening hunger pang in a healthy manner. You just finished your lunch three hours back and amidst your work, it hits you now – HUNGER!

Rejuvenation by Fasting
Mother nature is ready to rejuvenate? Are you willing? It is an ardent desire of every one of us to be healthy, strong till our last breath. But we have lost our instinct of how to remain healthy, happy and strong till our last day on planet Earth. I believe it was George Bernard Shaw who once remarked that since youth is such a wonderful thing. It's too bad it has to be wasted on the young. It is an observation that all of us who are "fifty-nine and holding", or past holding, can see merit in. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could hold onto our youth until we had sense enough to know how to really enjoy it or if we could at least partially rejuvenate ourselves, once youth has fled? The search for eternal youth But in man's search for eternal youth nothing of the bizarre or unusual has worked. Brinkley 's goat gland transplantation was widely heralded for a time and Brown - Sequard's seminal fluid rejuvenator once attracted much interest. Th
LUCKY CHARM SYNDROME - THE LAB REPORTS SYNDROME!
“This pen is very lucky for me. I score well every time I use this pen for any exam! And see, I did well this time too!” Yes, I am talking about the irrationality of the thoughts which may have proven to be POSITIVE for you. HOW CAN A PEN BE ATTRIBUTED FOR GOOD RESULT? These thoughts sow the seed of irrationality in mind, in anyway, even if there is a short-term positive correlation, in experience, prevails… If it is an irrational acceptance in mind, it can not be a positive phenomenon for you. Beware of that, please! In PSYsolution's course on Nature & Life (level-1), one of the popular topics in scientific Superstitions addresses the myths of curing the deficiencies and fallacies of Deficiency Theory. Acceptance of Deficiency Theory in our mind is that kind of seed of irrationality is sowed through different conditioning. Deficiency theory proposes that many of our health problems are CAUSED due to t
