The human body is a sophisticated self-repairing system that is still not fully understood by medicine and science.

The body requires certain conditions to thrive and sometimes needs special care and attention to recover optimum health. A healthy lifestyle includes plentiful rest, optimal nutrition and a significant amount of physical activity.

Nearly everything that enters the body is of importance to wellbeing. Certain inputs (particularly air, water, and food) must be reliably taken in to maintain health while others (including many commonly present natural and man-made toxins) cause great harm if they enter the body. Electromagnetic radiation (including visible light, radio waves and more) from natural and man-made sources can also have significant positive or negative heath effects. Our thoughts and emotions can also have a very important effect on our health.
