1. BASIC PRINCIPLES OF NATURE CURE SUBMITED BY :- RUCHIKA SHARMA 1 ST YEAR BNYS

2. BASIC PRINCIPLES OF NATURE CURE BODY HEALS ITSELF. MAIN CAUSE OF DISEASE IS ENERVATION. DEPOSIT OF METABOLIC END-PRODUCTS IN THE BODY IS DISEASE. ACUTE DISEASE IS A REMEDIAL PROCESS – ITSELF A CURE. FOOD IS A BUILDING MATERIAL DOES NOT INCREASE VITAILITY.

3. 1.BODY HEALS ITSELF HEALING :- It means restoration to a normal condition or make a sick body whole and healthy. restoration or gain of heath can only be done by NATURE, not by MAN. Body heals itself by adopting mechanism like immunity, homeostasis, regeneration of tissue and excretion of harmful product. Naturopathy believes that our body is capable of healing itself but only thing is that we have to give an environment. The body is capable of self healing, of self regeneration and of self defence. In human body every cell and tissue is endowed with the instinct of self preservation.

4. “Drugs do not cure disease, disease is always cured by via medicatrix nature”. All medicines which enter the circulation, poison the blood in the same manner as do poisons that produce disease. – PROF. JOS. M. SMITH M.D. ‘The confidence you have in medicine will be dissipated by experience in treating disease.” – PROF. HORACE GREEN. M.D.

5. Every individual within himself possesses the power to cure himself of any disease. though the healing power in question can not be seen or weighed or measured. That power within us which makes heart to beat, the blood to flow, the eyes to see, the ears to hear, the lungs to breathe, the brain to think well, if given a chance, renew diseased tissue in an organ part of the body which is functioning wrongly, cleanse the cells, purify the blood, give new strength to a degenerate digestive system and, in short, makes life worth living once again to the sufferer from disease.

6. It is living body which provides healing, not the outside agents. Outside agents-drug or treatments may be helpful to some extent but the real work of healing is done by the power inherent in the body.

7. 2.MAIN CAUSE OF DISEASE IS ENERVATION ENERVATION :-nervous system consists of brain, spinal cord and motor and sensory nerves. When there is a fatigue in them it is called ENERVATION.{tiring or fatigue of the nervous system}. When there is lack of energy, the secretions of excretion are disturbed and this is called disease.

8. CAUSES FOR ENERVATION :- Wrong diet. Lack of rest and sleep. Social, financial and other stresses. Addictions. Sensory stimulation. Sedentary life style. Mental and psychological causes. Treatments.

9. WRONG DIET :- Irregular meals, over eating, consumption of fried and refined foods and sweets. Theses foods are full of calories but they do not build body. These kinds of food-demineralised, devitaminised, and devitalised, are fillers not feeders. LACK OF REST AND SLEEP :- Work should be followed by rest and rest by work. Rest without work rusts the body and over work without rest also debilitates the body. REST:- it permits the renewal of the cells, repair of tissue, replenishment of nerve centres and elimination of accumulated toxic waste. SLEEP:- Sleep is a form of recreation, of creating a new. During sleep energies are renewed, cells replenished, tissues repaired and organs made ready for renewed work. Sleep is the great representative of restorative process.

10. SOCIAL AND FINANCIAL CAUSES :- In society we are forced to take unnecessary things. In gatherings and parties we take fried and concentrated food and some alcoholic drinks which sap our vitality. Social drugs – tea, coffee, tobacco and some beverages are offered and denial of these is considered to be an insult to the host. ADDICTIONS :- Tea, coffee, bidies and cigarette smoking, tobacco, chewing or snuffing, consumption of alcoholic drinks etc. Stimulate the nerves and finally depress them, weaken them and enervate them. SENSORY STIMULATION :- Sensory excesses Sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch.

11. sedentary lifestyle :- A sedentary lifestyle is a type of lifestyle with no or irregular physical activity. Sedentary activities include sitting, reading, watching television, playing video games, and computer use for much of the day with little or no vigorous physical exercise. A sedentary lifestyle can contribute to many preventable causes of death

12. 3.DEPOSIT OF METABOLIC END PRODUCTS, IN THE SYSTEM, IS DISEASE Disease do not attack people. Disease grow slowly within the body through continued abuses and accumulating toxemia. So disease cannot be contracted for the same reason. Every disease, acute or chronic develops from the accumulation of toxins and poisons and wastes in the body. so called disease manifests as a number of symptoms (fever, pain, aches, mucus, flow, diarrhea etc.) with are normal restorative actions of the body until they degenerate into chronic structural defects.

13. DETOXIFICATION PATHWAY

14. Five types of waste matter that need to be eliminated from the body :- Catabolic waste matter. Waste matter of undigested and unassimilated food. Waste matter due to infective live foreign bodies like germs and parasites. Waste matter due to foreign substances which are dead. Medicinal waste matter.

15. 4.ACUTE DISEASE IS A REMEDIAL PROCESS. IT IS ITSELF A CURE :- Acute disease is the body’s natural and normal way of rapidly eliminating accumulated toxins. Acute disease should be permitted free expression without treatment or palliation or suppression. Better fast, this ensures rapid restoration of health. The instinct to sleep and fast during acute illness should be honored.

16. It is a natural function of the body expressed as fever:- mucus flow, coughing, diarrhea, inflammation, headache, lose of appetite weakness, heaviness, desire to sleep, sore throat, muscular aches etc.

17. 5.FOOD IS A BUILDING MATERAIL, BUT DOES NOT INCREASE VITALITY Food needed for physiological functioning. Food, after all, is a powerless substance to build flesh, blood, bones and nerves. Only a living breathing organism can convert it into a living tissue. Food is needed for nourishment, protection and maintenance of the body. Food does not increase the vital power but it is vital power that digests the food and derives its benefits. By increasing digestion we can make the use of foods but by increasing foods we can not increase vitality.

18. Food is a powerless substance to build flesh, blood, bones and nerves. Only a living being organism can covert food into a living tissue. By increasing the amount of food we eat, vitality doesn't increase. It is the vital power that digests, absorbs, assimilates, excrete. In sickness when food is not digested it is a hurden and tax on vitality.

19. Through life force is primary, life itself depends on food. More the sick eat, more weak he becomes. When food is not digested properly it is fermented and decomposed and it results in weakness and disease not in strength. Eat when hungry and fast when sick.
