Health is a result of proper cellular function. Disease is the result of abnormal cell function. It really is that simple. The brain controls and regulates, through the nervous system, cellular function in the body. Interference with the transmission of the electro-chemical signals that connect your brain, the master control system for the body, to the cells, tissues, organs and systems that make up the human body can have a detrimental effect on health.
Chemical, nutritional and emotional factors can also affect the normal, natural functioning of the body at the cellular level. There is a growing body of evidence that optimal health results from a combination of many factors including: a fully functioning nervous system, proper nutrition and hydration, exercise, natural sleep and emotional well being. In the next few days I will be posting entries on the five pillars of health: Nutrition, Sleep, Exercise, Stress reduction, Preventive health.
