Story of my life

I am normal man with normal needs. I'm working in my family business well over 12 years. My life was mess and I couldn't know how to make things better.
Last year in August I touched the bottom of all bottoms. I've spending a lot of money and I don't have money to buy anything for my children, because all the money where going for food, my weight was "huge" like I knew to say, I even can not tie the shoe ties, I was eating once a day, starting in the morning and finishing in the evening. I become 125 kilograms, and everything around me was falling apart. Then in my life entered Herbalife and changed everything. I started to feed properly. That was the beginning, with healthy nutrition along side name and my psychological change, I've stopped to be selfish and I have start to look after others. Little by little, with Herbalife I have known positive people that have told their stories, and those stories started to change me deep inside and to motivate me. The beginning of this year is very good, but the situation has not been changed a lot, and the main reason that I was feeling great was that I have changed, and I am not longer the person from 6 months ago. I've lost weight. For 1 month I have lost 3 kilos, and 4 kilos of fat. I've met lot of positive people and also started to help others. Everyone has noticed that I was changing, and the changes was going on the fast lane. Everyone wanted to know my secret. Than, trying to help others, Herbalife start to pay me for helping others, and for talking to other people about the products.
My first month I earned about 50 euros, second month I earned 50 euros in one day, and today I'm earning around 3000 euros a month. My goal till the end of this year is to earn 10000 euros a month, and I know that is going to be, just like I projected. I have learn lessons for the life on harder way, and I know that when I could do this everyone can. I've lost 14 kilos and 18 kilos of fat, I dropped 4 numbers, and now I can wear my cloths from 10 years ago, and I have solved my problem with high blood pressure and chronic gastritis.
This is good for my health and it is not the main reason that I have changed. The greatest changes of all was that I become better person, caring, loving, stopped to look only for me, helping other. If I have not changed my character, everything would be in vain and every change that  I had made would last until I lost interest or I have to do something "better". I found something that I going to work all my life, and I'm going to learn my 3 children how to be better persons, not to be just man who is fighting to live this cruel world. I will show them the right way, only thing they need to do is, to start living their lives the best way for them, and to peruse only their dreams, and their wishes and I will give them the right tool for that HERBLIFE the greatest opportunity in the world for healthy live and for business.

I hope that this my story will give the bust to someone else to start changing their life too, or just to make it better, I'm always here for everyone, and I will help to anyone who is wanting help. I will be here .
My wish for you is to start to live your life the way you want, not the way others are telling you, and to be brave and to have the strength to challenge all the problems on the way toward your dreams.
START LIVING YOUR DREAMS,AND NEVER GIVE UP UNTILL YOU FULFILL THEM.

The proper fruit and vegetables preparation

In order to maintain the maximum amounts of nutrients in the food, it's important that during the preparation of food you preserve certain rules:
Fruits and vegetables should be washed thoroughly before approaching further processes - peeling, cutting, cooking and more.
If you want to retain vitamins B and C, the food must not be sinked in the water. The vegetables and fruits should be washed, before peeling in order to eliminate vibration and dirt, that would otherwise be transferred to the part that is eaten, and then peel, cleaned and re-washed. Since the vitamins are also found under the bark, so peel it only if it is necessary, and you will not lose the valuable vitamins from the vegetable or the fruit, and if you need to peel, then peel it very careful, and peel only thin crust. Potato peeling is best done with fine wire ware (which is only used for cleaning vegetables and fruits) or cook and bake with shell. Carrots, too, should not be peeled, but gently scrubbed with wire brush for vegetables.

When we cut and peel the fruits and vegetables, we need to use sharp knife, because, if we work with blunt knife during the peeling or cutting, we are shatter the tissue, which leads to destruction of vitamin A and C. Fruits and vegetables should be taken raw, as a salad, or you should prepared it just before eating, because, the cut fruits and vegetables lose vitamins with standing. Do not throw out the outer, rough, leaves of lettuce, because, it's richer in vitamins, calcium and iron than the inside leaves.
Parsley and celery leafs are added to the meal (especially the soups and chowder) only when the boil has stopped, and when the meal is removed from the heat, because we don't want to destroy vitamins. Before stewing the onion, we put it in the cold oil and little water, and we are adding the water gradually until the onion is softened. Fruits and vegetables should be stored immediately upon purchase in the refrigerator, because the heat dehydrate it and the vegetables and fruits lost their freshness.
Freezing of the vegetables and fruits is better than using a canned or withered fruit and vegetables. Freezing it retains the nutrients and energy value that existed at the time of cooking and freezing. During the processing of the frozen food we do not need to defrost the ingredients previously, but they must be putted in cold water and gradually heated.
When cooking use less water, lower heat and cook food as short as possible. It is recommended to use the dishes made ​​of stainless steel or enamel with double bottom. Cooking on teflon, copper and iron pots destroys certain vitamins and minerals. Do not throw the water in which vegetables are cooked, use it for making soups, sauces, beverages. Using of baking soda during the cooking of the vegetables it's not desirable, because it destroys the vitamin B1 and vitamin C.
Prepare and cook the meals for the day, because after 48 hours, cooked food loses its bioenergetic value. While preparing food, be in the mood and happy, and love the things you do, because you will add big amount of love in the food you make. It is said - Love is the most important spice and seasoning, without it the meal does not taste good.
I hope that this post will guide you more in the healthier way of life and it will open your mind to think about your health and the health of your close ones. My life has been changed a lot during the last year. I'm not the same selfish and arrogant man, that I have been, and I know that have saved my self. My wish for everyone in the world is to make the changes in their life and to start to live the life like it should be lived. I started this blog to help others to se the light in this world, and I'm glad that every day  more and more people is reading my blog, and if my writing is changing someones life, it is worthy for everything, and thank you for reading the posts that has been made in my soul, and my wish for everyone is to start living and loving, because if you do not love you are not living.
What to love?
Love everything and everyone, because when I started to love the live has started for me.
Thank you again to everybody for everything.
This is my gift for you, from deepest part of my soul and heart.

IMPROPER DIET AND DISEASES

Diseases caused by improper diet

Along coming with the stress, with what has modern humanity faced last decades, one of the main causes of the extremely large number of diseases are, above all, improper diet. Among the most widespread disease of modern times are:
- Obesity 
- Diabetes 
- High blood pressure 
- Atherosclerosis 
- Heart attack 
- Stroke 
- Caries 
- Allergies 
- Anemia 
- Degenerative Diseases 
- The acidity of the body 
In addition with the improper nutrition, the occurrence and development of these diseases also is affected by both excessive and uncontrolled chemicals, that is used in the process of growing and processing food.

Obesity is defined as the increase in body weight in relation to ideal weight by 15%. That means, if the ideal weight is 50 kg, and a person has a body weight of 57.5 kg, this person is considered obese. Working abilities of an obese person is decreased from 20-60%, with what it becomes a problem with great significance for the society.

Diabetes mellitus - Diabetes  occurs due to lack of insulin in the body, which is produced in the pancreas gland. Insulin ensures that the sugar, as nutrient, is reaching every cell in the body, and the cells gain the energy needed for the functioning of the organism. As the main causes of diabetes are considered as stress and obesity. 

High blood pressure - hypertension occurs when the heart is unable to carry out the normal functioning of blood and oxygen to the tissues and organs, due to obstacles that arise in the arteries. Overcoming the resistance, the heart due to narrowness of the blood vessels, brittleness, stiffness and reduced elasticity of veins and arteries, stress the heart and eventually lead to a weakening of the ebbing of the heart muscle. Hypertension is the cause for many diseases of modern mankind, which shorten human life, and high blood pressure also got the name "silent killer". The main causes of these diseases are obesity (conditioned by improper diet), smoking, alcohol and coffee, psychic tension, lack of movement and physical activity, occupational overwork, worry, conflict, lack of rest, and genetic factors. The most common symptoms are headaches in the region of the neck, restlessness, drowsiness, dizziness, tinnitus, and a loss of sight.
This are the changes on some organs that are caused by high blood pressure

Atherosclerosis is one of the most common consequence of high blood pressure, and occurs when high blood pressure is not treated, so it is resulting with a loss of elasticity of the walls of arteries. Fat that normally circulate in the body, more quickly is pushed into the blood vessel walls  and can be compared with rust formed on the iron. Fats, especially by animal origin, and other external factors, is affecting the formation rate of these deposits.

Heart attack occurs when there is a blockage of arteries supplying the heart with blood and no blood flow in to the heart muscle. When it comes to a complete stop of blood flow to the heart or its individual parts, then the results is damage or complete destruction of heart muscle.

Stroke is also a consequence of high blood pressure, because there losing of the elasticity and a hardening of cerebral vessels. This is most common at men between the 46th and 55 year. First, it is manifested as dull pain in the head, then dizziness, and even insomnia, general malaise, the emergence of pessimism and depression.From ten thousand people between 45 and 46 years of age that had stroke, 1000 die, or 10%.


Cancer occurs when normal cell division stops, and the cells are dividing without pattern, and the whole cell change it structure and functionality that the cells are not longer capable to do their normal function. It is important to detect disease at an early stage of formation, while the changes are not extended to the other parts or the body. There is a very large number of different types of cancer. Some researchers believe that cancer occurs due to large intake of protein in the body by the food, and that it is made so called body in to the body, that is using all the food only for the growing of the cancer, so the health part of the body is having troubles to maintain the functionality due the increased nutrient usage by the fast growing cancer cells. Proper nutrition has a major impact on reducing the incidence of this disease.
Cancer cells, you can see the difference between the healthy cells( green ) and the cells that has lost their structure and are growing fast ( the red cells )

Caries occurs primarily as a result of excessive sugar intake. The carbohydrates, bacteria and plaque deposits,  attack tooth enamel and cause cavities. It is also important to know that taking sugar and carbohydrates accelerates the changes of the tooth enamel, and that is why we should not give to the children sweets and artificial drinks. Tooth brushing and oral hygiene reduces the risk of caries.

Allergies occur as a result of embrittlement of the body and inability to confront the modern pollutants, chemicals, artificial production in all spheres of life. They are very widespread and common in all age groups and age categories. Especially is increased in children. Also its relation with diet is significant, because of the level of immunity of the organism following the malnutrition, is very big. When with the food we take all the nutrients that our body needs, there is a lot of cases that the allergies where cured. Also the disease that is widely spreading among the children, and the people that have a long history of allergies is ASTHMA or bronchial allergic asthma.

Anemia occurs due to the reduced number of red blood cells or the number of molecules of hemoglobin. Usually it is as a consequences due to a lack of iron or folic acid in the body, and also vitamins B6 and B12 and copper can cause it, but less often. Common symptoms are: fatigue, malaise, lack of energy, trouble concentrating, no ability to warm their hands and feet, susceptibility to infection and disease development due to embrittlement of the organism. More common in women than in men, particularly in the transitional era.

Degenerative diseases like allergies, are diseases caused by excessive use of the chemicals and pollution of the environment, the food, air and etc. Significant increase of these diseases are noticeable the places where is used the chemicals for food production and processing. The degenerative diseases are more expressed in younger children and children of school age.

Acidity levels of our bodies (pH factor) is one of the most widespread, little known, hidden diseases of the modern mankind, which causes increases, and many of the above mentioned problems. Particularly affects of the occurrence of persistent and very durable - Candida albicans. The concept of pH factor has been known for thousands of years, and it is based on the theory that human health is directly related to and it depends on the level of acidity - alkalinity to the body. If the body is too acidic, or there is no balance, then there is a disorders that are manifested in the form of a large number of diseases. In determining the state of the body, urine saliva and blood is being tested. The optimum pH of the morning urine and saliva is 7.0, while of the blood is from 7.3 to 7.4. Everything below that point is considered as a metabolic acidity. If the urinary pH value is below 6.4, then the body can not use the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. The most common symptoms of acidity of the body are: acne, muscle aches, fatigue, joint pain, anxiety and depression, constipation, a strong smell of urine, white tongue, difficulties in the morning and feeling tired. Stronger symptoms are: depression, memory loss, loss of concentration, sweating, susceptibility to an bacterial infection (staphylococcus and streptococcus), sinusitis, fungal infections (Candida, athlete's foot), cystitis, stronger hair fall, Diarrhea, Allergies, spinal pain, a strong need for sweets, inability to lose excess pounds.
Foods that cause the increase of alkalinity in the body (must be  represented with 80% of food intake of the daily diet): water, vegetables - cabbage, celery, potatoes, carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, beets, broccoli, beans, onions, spinach, lettuce, green beans, peas, fruit - apples, apricots, blackberries, cherries, strawberries, tangerines, pears, peaches, lemons, melons, oranges, pineapple, grapes, grapefruit, raspberry, then, almonds, millet, malteks, dried figs, urme, raisins. 
Foods that cause the increase in acidity of the body: all kinds of meat and fish, all kinds of bread and flour, all kinds of spaghetti and macaroni, milk products (butter, yogurt, cheese), all types of grains except millet, all types of lenses, dry peas, all types of seeds except almonds and tickles, all kinds of sugar, chocolate, biscuits, honey, eggs, yeast, plums, pumpkins, olive oil, all kinds of rice, all kinds of soft and alcoholic drinks, all kinds of corn chips and snacks. 
If any of the symptoms mentioned above are more pronounced, it is necessary to immediately begin with the choosing of foods, solely with alkaline effects, and after two weeks, the effects are visible, which is manifested by the weakening or even disappearance of some symptoms. Most of the people who have the disorder, and most of the symptoms are present, therefore it is necessary quickly to consult with your nutritionist or wellness coach to give the treatment, or to contact the doctor if the symptoms are more severe, in order to prevent the occurrence of serious disorders: cancer, chronic illness, disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, leukemia and lot of other diseases.

Water and its importance

There is one ingredient  that we take for granted, but it importance transcends the importance of all others. It is simple, pure water. We know that, the man can starve 40 days, and also there were even experiments where people were put 100 days of starvation, but without a water we can not withstand even 10 days. Insufficient intake of water, slowly and unnoticeably change physiology of the organism and leads us to a number of chronic degenerative changes of tissues and organs. Believe it or not, stomach ulcers, high blood pressure, cholesterol, arthritis, allergies and asthma may be due to constant dehydration.
Modern man lives under the illusion that he can not dehydrate, because the water is always at his hand - enough to turn the tap. However, the neglecting the pure water, and our replacing  it with "liquid" as we like to call coffee, alcohol, various "colas" and juices, inevitably leads to dehydration, because,  this so called drinks or liquids can't replace clean water in that our body needs for everyday processes. And consummation of the "replacements" for water that we use are constantly using, unfortunately, at the end it leads toward the loss of sense of thirst, and then we are mixing it with the a sense of hunger,  and instead of drinking water we eat - which is disastrous for our organism. To avoid these troubles, it is necessary to establish a conscious discipline to drink 1 liter of water per 25 kilograms of your weight a day, even if we think that we are not thirsty.
For example, my weight is 100 kilos, and I use a 4 litters of water a day.
We are also asking ourselves  what kind of water we are using and we are always wondering about the quality so the main question is asked:
WHAT KIND OF WATER WE DRINK???

Pure spring water would be the best choice - if it is available. Unfortunately, in modern conditions, and the place of living in the cities, where we are far away from the springs, it is not possible . 

Bottled water, even if it comes from the cleanest sources, has artificial flavor, which gives it the packaging itself. Not only the taste is changed, unfortunately, the plastic is releasing the macromolecules in the water, and they are also acting in negative manner and is affecting our health. So I recommend that you do use water from the tap, if it is possible, or filtered, but structured in such a way that makes it much healthier. One of the ways of structuring the water is freezing and thawing again the water, with trowing the portions of the water in which is retaining harmful substances, that precipitate on the bottom of the bottle where we have freeze the water. Another way that you might prefer the mentality of modern man who still does not have time to implement long-term procedure is used impulsed magnetic filter , it is put on water tap, and works the same way as it was frozen and then thawed. We have to look for the quality of the water that we are drinking, because, it responsibility is to make a an ambient for the chemical processes that are making non stop in our body, and if we don't use clean water ( chemically clean ) the processes could be disturbed or even changed, and that is acting very bad for our health.
KIND OF FOOD WITH BIG AMOUNTS OF WATER

Like we have said in the upper part of the post, for optimal functioning of the organism it is necessary that we must have proper fluid intake, especially water. It is known that the earth surface is 70% of water, and that the human body is also made ​​of 75% water. To maintain your health, it is logical that we should take products that contain a big percentage of water (70%), and those products are fruit and vegetables. Scientifically proven that a man is a omnivore. This mean that we must eat everything, and our diet must be mainly from plants, and smaller portion must be from the animal products, because, we must take essential vitamins and amino acids that can not be found in plant product food.
As I have said in this post, man needs a litter of water for every 25kilos.


Water should be taken between meals, after the meal is the best time for it, but if it is necessary you may take it before , and during the meals. If we take the water during the meals, the processes for processing the food is weakened, because, it dilutes gastric acid, witch is necessary for proper digestion of food. However, if during the day we take enough food with a high levels of water, beverages will not be needed at all. 2.2 L of water per day we excreted through the kidneys. Also important for the regulation of body water is taking  sufficient amount of salt, because, salt binds water in the body. Adult man with average weight is necessary to take a 3.5 g of salt per day. Proper and healthy diet includes a limited, and preferably complete renunciation of beverages such as coffee, strong tea, alcoholic beverages, rarely we can take the milk, chocolate, ice cream and candy. If someone is drinking coffee, it should be drink only in the afternoon, teas should be herbal, and milk, chocolate, ice cream and sweets need to be taken on empty stomach.
The Vedas (ancient Indian scriptures) say: "Food is the breath we exhales; food is the breath of life that we breathe." Therefore, the relationship and attitude with the food and awareness of the inseparability of the food with us is very important. The way of thinking and awareness that in your body we are taking the life, energy, vitality and positive vibrations, and we will depend on our choice of food products. The idea that we are healthy, consciously avoiding stress and enjoying the food, it affects the whole health. Respect for food and performing prayers or meditation, or whatever anti stress program you are using,  before each meal will help to balance our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual dimensions. Aesthetic served food and cozy ambiance also contribute to the overall positive effect that food has in our lives.

Biological quality of the food

Bioenergetic value of food is represented as a vital energy, vitality and energy potential of foods that certain foods from plant or animal origin provides for our body if we consume them. Bioenergetic value of food depends, above all, from the way of food production (ecological or conventional production methods), then, the quality (species, variety) and the freshness of food (depending on the mode of keeping and storing of the interval between harvesting and utilization).
This mean, that we must look carefully for the food and the way the food is produced. 
Organic food has a much higher biological value than foods produced in a conventional way, that mean a higher content of dry matter, not artificially exaggerated water and contains a higher percentage of vitamins and biologically active substances, with a significantly lower content of nitrates (chemical compound that is thought that causes cancer), organic food longer maintain freshness and composition and can be easily stored. For example, organically produced tomatoes contain 8-10% of dry matter, against 4-5% of dry matter of conventionally produced, and they in the refrigerator stays fresh about 7-8 days, while the chemical only 2-3 days. This means that organic foods have high nutritional value and biological energy,  does not contain harmful substances that will impair our health and gives the body strength, freshness, has a better taste and appearance.
Method of sensitive crystallization is showing us pictorial the life force in living organisms. According to this method, the arrangement of crystals, which are formed by every living organism, can be determined the origin of production and biological quality of the food. The crystals produced by food that is produced organic, are expressive, visible and their arrangement is properly arranged and harmonious, with distinctive image (because the crystals are grouped in a row and toward the center), while the products from chemical production arrangements of the crystals is chaotic and irregular and the crystals are weak, barely visible and there is no order. This means that, in the first case there is a certain power that is able to regroup and to instruct the making of the crystals, while in another, there is small amount of power, or no power at all. This is precisely the power which give us, to our body, the vital energy and ability to grow, develop and maintain the natural immunity and disease resistance. Naturally produced food has its visible signs. First of all, the color of the organic produced products are more natural. High-quality foods have a certain hardness (natural and not from water), they shape is irregular , and sometimes you see traces of worms.
For example, the organic carrots are recognized by the darker color and narrower pith in the middle. The taste is sweeter, and more natural. Biologists also count that cosmic principles are involved in production and growing of food, so if we use a chemicals, that bond is broken and the flow of energy is disturbed.
