The Enemy Within Our Bodies

Victor Hugo eloquently called the poison in our body
“the serpent which is in man.” While this remark is poetic,
it contains even more truth than poetry. I have come to
regard autointoxication (self-poisoning) as the worst
enemy in the fight for Agelessness and Longevity. It is
mind-poisoning as well as body-poisoning because, even
after the energy of the body is regained, one has a lingering
sense of the futility of all endeavors. Some are inclined to
say, “The best of life is behind me. What lies before is
brief and burdensome. So many of my friends and
relations have gone.” Others say, “My turn’s coming. I’ve
got a date with the undertaker and it’s not so far off.”
These depressing thoughts can generate sad moods
and are detrimental to Agelessness and Longevity!
Remember, you can make the second half of life the best.
Autointoxication itself is your health’s greatest
enemy. It’s so common and yet so rarely recognized.
Those morbid moods – the worry, tensions, stresses,
frustrations, nervousness and needless anxiety – are
foreign to a healthy state. You should always be
optimistic, happy, carefree, self-confident and at peace.
Why is it that sometimes when fortune smiles her
brightest, you remain unhappy, mirthless, depressed, and
ungrateful? Then again when things look their bleakest,
you are amazed at your buoyancy. The purity or impurity
of your bloodstream might explain that!
I love life and want to live 120 years and more, in
prime physical condition! Each day of life is a beautiful,
priceless miracle! I want to keep it, value it, treasure it
and enjoy every waking hour! I also want this for you.
