Fighting the Virus. Defence Ginger

Antioxidant

Fresh ginger is an excellent antioxidant; therefore, it's a cool protector against various diseases, including infection, i.e. virus.

However, it is quite pungent and spicy, so it's not very pleasant to eat it raw. As a result,  people prefer whether to skip ginger or to cook it.

But is there any way to enjoy ginger fresh?

Yes, it is!

Ginger Dessert Recipe

Every day I have three big spoons of the raw ginger dessert at the end of my breakfast, and this is my recipe. 

For three big spoons of the dessert from raw ginger, you need the following ingredients: 

• Ginger: about 2,5 cm
• Lime: 1/2
• Liquid honey: about two small spoons

Step-by-step

1. Cut a piece from the ginger root ( the length depends on root thickness) and cut half the lime.

2. Wash the ginger and the lime.

3. Peel the ginger and cut the lime on four smaller pieces

4. Cut the ginger on the tiny pieces.

5. Fill a big spoon with ginger, moisten it with lime juice and squeeze a small portion of honey on it.

You can eat it plain, with turmeric or cinnamon. 

It's not only super healthy, but it's super enjoyable too!

And, by the way, lime and honey are great staff to boost your defence mechanism as well.

Stay healthy!

A hint:

Cut the lime peels, which were left, on the smaller portions and add them into a cup of your coffee or tea. Cover the cup and let it brew for 2-3 minutes.

Squeeze the fourth piece of the lime into the same drink. You will get great taste there.

As a result, you will delight a pleasant fresh taste of the extra antioxidant and vitamin C.

Consciousness and eating patterns

Still Life of Birger Carlstedt. Photography ©Jacklyn A. Lo

                           

We are what we eat

There is a saying: "We are what we eat". 

Unfortunately, not every person understands the deeper meaning of this phrase.

We compare ourselves to the people around us and we encounter folks who have different eating patterns. Time after time, we wonder why people with bad habits live longer than do those who watch what they eat.

Analytic Philosophy

To understand this from the Analytic philosophy point of view is practically impossible.

For example, Western medicine is based on the logic that food is made of calories, carbohydrates, fats, proteins and fairly recently discovered vitamins.  The energetic and spiritual impact of the food, for instance, by prana, is totally ignored by the Western mentality.

Soul

However, in addition to the physical body, humans have a spiritual core—i.e. soul, which forms consciousness.  All eight billion people living on Earth have different consciousnesses. 

Each of them must exchange energies with the Universe. This exchange happens without people's intention to do so. 

Individual Consciousness

However, requirements regarding the purity of the energy are different from person to person and are based on the level of individual consciousness. 

A lower-conscious individual has a "right" to send less pure energies than does a man with a higher consciousness. 

In other words, the higher consciousness demands a supreme quality of energy to send above. 

Therefore, health and self-comfort are dependent on the balance between the level of conscious and dedicated food.

Levels of Consciousness

A person with low levels consciousness "works" on dense types of energy vibrations. 

These vibrations do not require excellence in either food or water. Eating high-fat, low-quality food does not prevent this person from engaging in his daily routines. 

Let's look at a few examples.

Low Consciousness Level 1:
Dedicated food: two-day-old or older food, reheated meals, deep-fried and canned food, cheap alcohol.

Low Consciousness Level 2:
Greasy fast food, soda, cheap beer, tobacco.

Higher consciousness requires cleaner energy channels for transmitting and receiving energy flows. So, the requirements for the quality of the food are higher.

Higher Consciousness Level 1:
Non-separated food (mixed foods like potatoes with meat, cheese with bread, etc.), canned juices, canned fruits, chlorinated boiled water; consumption of raw food is up to 10%.

Higher Consciousness Level 2:
Separated food, i.e. meat and vegetables, cheese and berries; fine wine, water from mountains, raw food 15-25%.

5. Higher Consciousness Level 3:
Eating patterns are based on Ayurveda.
Food according to the energy patterns in the body, vegetarian, fresh juices, raw food 25-35%.

Just like a water pipe can be blocked by dirt, energy channels can be blocked by impurities in unhealthy food. Disturbed energy flow generates sicknesses. 

However, for a high level of consciousness, the requirements for food and water quality are even higher.

6. High Consciousness:
Raw food (70%), sprouted seeds, fruits, vegetables, berries, raw fish, seaweed, sauerkraut, nuts, dry fruits and berries, unrefined oils, pure water from mountains or distilled water.

Now imagine that a person with higher consciousness persists with bad eating patterns. 

The energy flow between this person and the Higher World is not as smooth as it should be. So, at a certain point, the person will suffer from an energy imbalance. 

As a result, fatigue, bad moods and loss of energy will appear at the emotional level, affecting the physical body and forcing it to become sick.

Therefore, to stay "safe", healthier eating habits must slowly but steadily be incorporated into one’s daily life.
