Before you can take responsibility, you need to regain control of your health. There is no big secret! How you eat, move, sleep, react, and live determine the status of your health, or the level of your disease.
We are not subject to the random chance of disease. We create disease in ourselves through a poor lifestyle, lack of proper nutrition, and failure to move our bodies. We have the power to make ourselves sick or healthy. We just need to make the right choice. You have control, all you have to do is take it back.
Our bodies have miraculous powers of repair and rejuvenation. It is inherent in all of us. Our cells, if nourished properly, kept free of toxins, and shielded from stress, could live indefinitely.
This is evidenced by cell cultures in scientific laboratories that have been kept alive in such environments for many decades without disease or death. These same cells will continue to thrive so long as they are properly nourished with natural foods and adequately protected from harmful toxins.

As you go down this path, your body degenerates, decomposes, and dies. It is an easy route down the road to ill health.
However, achieving lasting health and superior fitness requires effort, but the results are enormous. You avoid:

as well as start living a healthy
lifestyle.

you. Remember, you and only you can regain control of your health.
