Symptoms Are Just the Tip of The Iceberg
We grow up believing that when we are not unwell, we are healthy. However, in reality there is a large gap between optimal health and vitality and ill-health.

In fact, most disease processes take 10-20 years to develop. Symptoms are merely one of the final stages of the disease process. If you already have the symptoms, the body's fundamental metabolic control systems have been out of balance for some time and are now demanding attention.

It is true that there is place for every type of healing. However, in some instances people taking medications are just masking their symptoms. Therefore, the disease is still there, but the symptoms are just being masked by the medi- cation. That is why some call the current medical establishment a ‘disease management’ service, not a health service. Now, I am not suggesting for one second that you stop taking any medications you may be using. You should only ever alter your medication dosage in consultation with your Doctor.

I’m not sure if you are aware, but Doctors don’t cover health in their syllabus. The majority of a Doctor’s studying includes pathology (illness and disease) and pharmacology (drugs). Many Doctor’s receive no more than 4 hours of training on nutrition during a 5 year degree.

Now let me put it this way. If you were rowing a boat and it sprung a leak, would you try to plug the hole or just tip the water out as it fills the boat? Well building health is like plugging the hole. Treating symptoms is like tipping the water out.

Therefore, you need to be very aware of your own body. If you have symptoms, it is a warning sign to you that your bodily systems are out of balance and need attention. You need to consistently be building and maintaining health to avoid and even reverse illness and disease.

• The absence of symptoms doesn't reflect true health
• Symptoms are the consequence of a long series of events (lifestyle choices)
• Symptoms are the last phase to develop
• You can't judge true health by looking at symptoms
• Symptoms are the last phase to develop and the first phase to improve during the regression of a disease.

Therefore, it is important that once symptoms subside, you continue to move further towards optimal health and vitality.
If you don’t continue to improve health, you are skating on very thin ice with your health.
There are five stages in the progression of disease:

1. Excretions:
• Phlegm, dandruff, skin conditions.
• Not painful.
• Symptoms may come and go

2. Inflammation:
• Burns nerve endings and causes pain.
• Usually self-treated with anti-inflammatory medications (covers up pain/problem)

3. Deposits:
• Cellulite, cysts, tags etc..
• Compensation systems are failing and body is depositing things it can't get rid of so as not to compromise cell function.
• Patients may have them removed

4. Impregnation:
• The enzyme pathways of the cells are being interfered with and energy pathways are being upset.

5. Cell Degeneration:
• Organs may now need to be removed

6. Neoplasm:
• Cancer, the body is in the process of being recycled..
