Hi Fitness Warriors!

 

Food can be used to assist our body's in many different ways and without it we would't be able to function. In today's blog we are going to focus on how certain foods you consume can heal your body (both inside and out)! 

Throughout history, civilisations have been using food as a type of medicine. If you were ever told that eating carrots would help you see in the dark - then you already know more about the “Doctrine of Foods" than you thought!

The doctrine of foods is a holistic approach to health and wellenss. Many health professionals have researched into the doctrine of foods and have discovered an undeniable link between specific natural foods and their positives they have on our body's and organs. 

Below are a handful of great examples, you may notice the similiarity's many of these foods have in appearance to their desired area of health - this is the doctrine of foods! 

 

DOCTRINE OF FOODS

REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

Roots (eg. Ginger):

Roots such as ginger are an incredible food that reduces the inflammatory

responses in the body. This encourages healthy, gentle, detoxification - 

and digestion which increases the ability - to nourish ourselves -

(good for fertility).

red blood cells in our body.

How can this help me?

 

As seen above, certain foods assist the body by providing various nutrients and natural supplements that directly assist in healing. While this is in not a replacement for medical advice or medicines - the above will assist you in the development of natural healing and can replace certain supplements. As crazy as this may sound, by trying this you will witness a difference!

 

Conclusion:

 

Altogether, the doctrine of foods can go such a long way into shaping your attitude towards health and fitness. Once you can make a connection to the food you consume and the way your body feels / reacts - your mindset will expand far beyond food only being something we place into our mouths.
