day or week and trying to do it by memory. There are also new apps out there to help make this easier that keep track of proteins, carbohydrates and fats consumed. The more accurate your journal is, the more you can help yourself. So in applying a gradient scale let’s say that you find yourself drinking 12 cans of soda a day. You know you have to stop this if you desire even a chance of improving your health. The first week you would drink 11 sodas a day, the following week you would go for 10 sodas a day, and the following week 9, etc. Then let’s say you are at 6 cans a day and you completely lose it and start drinking more cans of soda. Simply go back to the amount you were
drinking before you went off your program. In this case go back to 7 or 8 cans a day and do that for a couple of weeks. Then you can go back to dropping down to 6 cans again and continue decreasing until the sodas are eliminated from your diet. You can apply this technique for getting off of anything really; candies, cookies, cigarettes, alco- hol. It keeps you from shocking your body from withdrawal and allows you to experi- ence small wins which will help you gain confidence to keep improving. Don’t expect yourself to be perfect with this. We all mess up. When you fall off the wagon, keep get- ting back on. In time, you can turn your diet around and have a profoundly positive effect on your health.

In addition to diet, unfortunately, in this
day and age we may have to effectively deal with some or all of the barriers to the heal- ing process. These may include structural interferences such as vertebral subluxations which interfere with proper communication of the nervous system. We may unknow- ingly have metal toxicities such as mercury, aluminum, arsenic, lead or other heavy metals and there are other environmental toxicities including chlorine, formaldehyde, medications, plastics and other chemicals. There can be immune challenges that may need to be addressed such as viral, bacte- rial, parasites, yeast and fungus. Surgical scars may cause interferences in the func- tion of the sympathetic nervous system. EMFs which include dirty electricity, cell phones, computers, WI-FI etc., may need to be dealt with. And there are problems with food itself which include pesticides, antibi- otics, hormones, GMOs, food intolerances and allergies. There are emotional issues which make up the underlying root cause of ill health that need to be handled. Confused? Head spinning? All of this
can seem so overwhelming but it really can be handled if taken one step at a time. So go easy with this. Obviously most would need professional help in many of these areas but anyone can begin the process of rebuilding health through diet. You may be amazed at how switching to a real foods diet can improve your health. Real food is not found in the fat-free aisle, cholesterol- free aisle, or the gluten- free aisle.
Begin with a simple step, gradually reducing unhealthy foods and gradually replacing them with healthy foods. It takes time and a willingness to do what it takes to make a change.
