Our species is tough, resilient and durable. Human expected average lifespan is around 80 years generally in most developed countries, along with a greater number of centenarians each year. Increasing scientific, biological and medical knowledge is now teaching us that one can find a lot more factors than the easier apparent short term outcomes of healthy diet and stress. In addition there are critical (and often subtle) long-term outcomes which should often be taken into consideration

For example, there is a generally accepted minimum daily Vitamin C intake necessary to prevent scurvy. Once we thought that this minimum amount was all that anyone needed. Subsequent scientific studies showed us that increased Vitamin C intake had significant health and well-being benefits.

The cycle for getting scurvy is measured in months. But the goal in nutrition is not just to avoid obvious short-term vitamin-deficiancy diseases. It is to promote optimum health, energy levels and well being. For that we need many times the scurvy-prevention level of Vitamin C intake.

There are other, longer-lasting cycles of effects of deprivations of nutrients, antioxidants, phytochemicals, probiotics and others that affect us. These deprivations can lead to diabetes, circulatory problems, heart disease and maybe alzheimer’s disease and others.

On the dark side there are pollutants, toxins, carcinogens and other substances, both known and as-yet-unknown, that have cumulative life-shortening effects on everyone.

Knowing this encourages us to avoid commercial drugs in favor of natural cures whenever these are available.

Understanding this now allows us to effectively avoid fibroid surgery, find the best psoriasis diet and effect ovarian cyst removal effectively..

Our biochemistry is very complex. There seem to be genetic links to more diseases and conditions than we ever suspected just a few years ago. As we continue to decode the complex interrelations of genetics, DNA, biochemistry and causes and effects of what we ingest, we are finding new solutions to old problems in often surprising places.
