Nutrition has a Direct Effect on the Health of our Brain

Perhaps we don’t think about it, but nutrition has a direct bearing on the health of our brain and nervous system. We know that alcohol and drugs have a direct effect on the functioning of our brain. It should not be surprising, then, that good nutrition has a direct effect on how our brain functions.

The brain, like all the other organs of our body, needs proper nutrition, oxygenation, and the elimination of accumulated toxins that may have crossed the blood/ brain barrier.

The brain being the seat of our spiritual, emotional, and intellectual selves, and the direct operator of our physical selves, has a direct influence on these elements of our lives. Juice fasting is such a powerful influence on the health of our brain that we can immediately see great improvement in all areas of our lives.

Usually, the second day of the fast will start with the realization that you have had a good night’s sleep, the best that you can remember. You may feel refreshed, energized and ready to face the challenges of the day – without a cup of coffee to get you started.

Since the brain is the seat of our reasoning, it is not surprising that our understanding of ourselves and the world in which we live, the appreciation of the value of the other people in our lives, and the significance of the contribution to our world of relationships rises to a higher awareness and we become more perceptive, generous and tolerant people.

Often, and perhaps, usually, those who undertake a fasting program will experience a spiritual dimension that they have not known before.

Our ‘truth’ by which we operate becomes re-defined as our perceptive skills are enhanced. Our self worth and the value of the others in our lives is amplified. We become better people to ourselves and to the world where we live, all because we have eliminated the inhibiting influence of poisons in our life and have brought about the healing that comes with good nutrition to our physical selves.
