o
le.
Pay attention to your diet to heal your body as a whole.
Good diet is the basis of
nature cur
e
. This is a constructive
method of treatment which aims at removing t
h
e basic
cause of disease through the rational use of the elements freely available in nature.
It is not only
a system of healing, but
also a way of life. It is in tune with the internal vi
t
al forces
or natural elements comprising the
h
uman body.
It is a complete revolution in the art
a
nd science
of living.
Nature cure is based on
the realisa
t
ion that man is born heal
t
hy and strong and that
h
e can stay as such as living in
accordance
with the laws of nature.
Even if born with some inherited affliction, the i
n
dividual can
eliminate it
by putting to the best use the nat
u
ral agents of

ic
relaxation, constructive
t
hinking and
the right mental attitude,
along with
prayer and meditation
all play their
part in kee

ing a sound
mind in a s

Tip 50. Avoid medications for the treatment of colitis.
The usual t
r
eatment of colitis with
s
u
ppressive drugs is b
a
s
e
d on the assumption that colitis is due to germ infection,
w
hich it is not.
The suppr
e
ssive drugs
drive back into the sys
t
em the
toxic matter in the colon
which natu
r
e is endeavouring to eliminate in the form of mucus.
They suppress the symptoms temporarily, without removing t
h
e cause. In
such c
a
ses,
the sympt
o
ms recur and colitis becomes chronic. Pl
a
in warm wa
t
er or warm
water with a little olive
oil used
a
s a wash-out is the only method of sof
t
ening and r
e
moving the
accumulati
o
ns of hardened matter sticki
n
g to the walls of the col
o
n.
