Pharmaceuticals And Your Longevity
A long life is always drug-free. Pharmaceuticals are chemicals, and therefore acidic and toxic by nature. Rely more on your body's self-healing power than on the short-term symptom-suppressing pharmaceuticals. Given the unreliability of drug tests, the questionable safety of drugs and their toxic nature, refrain from taking any prescription or over-the-counter medication without extra precaution and careful consideration.
Acidity And Your Longevity
Pharmaceuticals are synthetic chemicals, and therefore acidic and toxic by nature. A healthy body has a balanced acid-and-alkali level. An over-acidic body spells disease and premature death. Therefore, a longevity life is a drug-free life.
Heart Surgery And Your Longevity
Heart surgery, such as angioplasty, may be unnecessary and even harmful to patients suffering from heart disease. Medicines may be effective in treating and preventing heart disease. In Oriental medicine, on the other hand, focus is on foods and acupuncture to unblock "qi" (internal life energy) and blood for optimum heart health, which has to be wholesome.
Brain Health and Your Longevity
Brain health has everything to do with heart health, and hence your longevity health. What is good for the heart is good for the brain. Giving good numbers to your heart maintain your brain health. In addition, sharpen your mind with activities to maintain the communication of brain cells to keep your brain healthy.
Confucianism and Healthy Longevity
Confucianism and healthy longevity are inter-related. The concepts of "chung" and "yung" of Confucius outlined everyday health practices for healthy living. In addition, Confucianism focus on spiritual wellness, using the human will to control the 'qi' (internal vital energy), enhanced both the physical and spiritual wellness necessary for healthy longevity.
Buddhism and Healthy Longevity
Buddhism plays a pivotal role in healthy longevity. The Buddhist concept of no "ego-self" or "emptiness" takes away stress, which is one of the major causes of disease and illness. In addition, Buddhism focuses on the expression of compassion and loving kindness as the true meaning of life. This altruistic attitude inspires oneself, in the face of health adversity, to set an example to help others to relieve their own suffering.
