Running down your vitality reserves?
Dragging on through life but not feeling good about it?
FEELING ALL RIGHT - ISN'T RIGHT ENOUGH
HEALTH isn't just an absence of illness - it's the abundance of vitality. I believe a tangible and achievable experience of profound wellbeing exists for us all. This is characterised by a consistent, clear and high level of energy, an emotional balance, a sharp mind, a desire to maintain physical fitness and a direct awareness of what suits our bodies and enhances our health.
This state of health includes a resilience to infections diseases and protection from major killers such as heart disease and cancer. It means slowing the ageing process and living a long, healthy life. Health is not merely the absence of pain or tension but a joy in living and appreciating the many pleasures of this world.
This is my experience and one which I have seen in many others in the 17 years since I started to pursue optimum nutrition. It has been a journey of learning about myself from the diseases and imbalances I have suffered, and continuing to find even higher levels of energy. With the help of the Superhealth programme, it can be your experience too.
IMAGINE that you are born with a health reserve - like money in your deposit account. Depending what you eat, drink, breathe and think, gradually health is lost from that health deposit account.
Once you go on overdrawn your energy is low and you suffer from niggling health problems, from colds to PMS. As your overdraft grows you develop diseases and when you exceed your overdraft limit that's when you die. Of course, it's only at the disease stage that conventional medicine kicks in. Once you are horizontally ill, its job is to get you vertical again - functioning but not necessarily superhealthy. Most people are walking around vertically ill, standing up but hardly full of the joys of spring.

SIX STEPS TO SUPERHEALTH
There are six key steps, or processes in the body, that reflect where you are on the scale from disease to super health. Almost all diseases result from an imbalance in one or more of these processes.
On the other hand, if you're firing at 100 per cent on all cylinders, you are superhealthy and very unlikely to get sick.
The purpose of Six Weeks to Superhealth is to tune up each of these fundamental processes. Since we are all different, some sections will be more important for you than others. These, understandably, may be harder and will require more effort on your part.
Having seen in thousands of people the extraordinary results that can be achieved in a very short time by following these guidelines, I urge you to put 100 per cent into following the indications for each of the six weeks. The more thoroughly you follow each week the more you will experience an improvement in your health.
