What the authors write
Ewa Dąbrowska
Increased physical activity is intended to support the body's cleansing processes during the treatment.
„To improve the body's cleansing processes, it is worth supporting this treatment by increasing physical activity, because movement activates the same mechanisms in the body as fasting. It also helps eliminate toxins and reduce body weight, blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, and so on.”Aby usprawnić procesy oczyszczania, warto taką kurację wspomagać zwiększeniem aktywności ruchowej, gdyż ruch uruchamia w organizmie te same mechanizmy, co post; sprzyja również eliminacji toksyn, redukcji masy ciała, ciśnienia tętniczego, poziomu cukru, cholesterolu itp.

„Especially beneficial activities include walking outdoors, for example Nordic walking, gymnastics, swimming, and moderate workouts at the gym. Natural cleansing therapies may also be helpful, such as enemas, hydrocolon therapy, sauna, as well as massages and physical therapy treatments.”Szczególnie cenne okazały się zwłaszcza spacery na świeżym powietrzu, np.: marsze Nordic Walking, gimnastyka, pływanie, czy też umiarkowane ćwiczenia na siłowni. Pomocne mogą być również naturalne terapie oczyszczające, takie jak: lewatywy, hydrokolonoterapia, sauna, a także masaże i zabiegi fizykoterapeutyczne.

„It is hard to find a case study of someone harmed by eating too many fruits and vegetables. Store-bought fruit juices are not the same as eating fruit. They tend to have more sugar and fewer nutrients per unit volume. Be sure to consume fatty acids, aiming for more than 500 mg per day of the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA, and an omega-3 to omega-6 ratio greater than 1/4. Don't be afraid of omega-9 fatty acids such as oleic acid. Studies of people consuming olive oil and the "Mediterranean diet" consistently show favorable results. [2] Avoid artificial trans fats, and limit simple sugars.”It is hard to find a case study of someone harmed by eating too many fruits and vegetables.
