I have found a few authors and chiropractors over the years who really understand function of the internal physiology and how health is built or destroyed.  After all isn’t creating health the goal of all medical pursuits?

The following is an adaptation of Dr James Chestnut’s “Eat Right for Your Species Type”.  He outlines the biological rules that our bio-psycho-social mind and body must follow in order to create healthy choices in our lives.  I dig it, so I thought I would share it with you all.

1. Your state of genetic expression determines your state of health or illness. (genetic
expression is which specific genes are being expressed or which genetic
recipes are being used to create states of structure and function and/or
health and illness at any given time)

2. There is a direct causal relationship between habitat and lifestyle choice and
state of genetic expression. Which genes you are expressing is determined
by your habitat and lifestyle choices. States of health and illness are reflections of the
genetic expression of habitat and lifestyle choices.

3. Healthy habitat and lifestyle choices for any species are defined as those
that elicit the genetic expression of health within that species. This makes
things so simple! What to eat, how to move and exercise, and how to think,
feel, act, and interact in the ways required to express health are no longer
confusing, they are defined by your species type. If you want to be healthy
you must follow biological law, you must ‘Live Right for Your Species Type’.

4. The habitat and lifestyle choices required to elicit the genetic expression
of health within any species are determined by the essential ingredients
lists found on the genetic recipes on the specific DNA or in the genome of
that unique species. The unique collection of DNA found within the genes
within any species is known as the genome of that species. Genome is what
defines species. Each species has a unique collection of DNA or a unique
genome which contains unique essential ingredients lists for the expression
of health for that species. Humans have human DNA that makes up the
human genome that contains the unique human essential ingredients lists
for the expression of health in humans. Giraffes have giraffe DNA that
makes up the giraffe genome which contains the unique giraffe essential
ingredients lists. This biological law is true for all species.

5. Healthy habitat and lifestyle choices are species-specific and species-wide.
What represents a healthy habitat or lifestyle choice for any member of any
given species is defined by the genome of that species and is thus specific
to that species and is the same for every member of that species (because
every member of that species has the same genome). This biological law
applies to all species, including of course, the human species.

6. The essential ingredients for the genetic expression of health must be
sourced from habitat and lifestyle choices. The ingredients themselves are
not found in the genome, only the recipes and lists of essential ingredients
are found in the genome.

7. Healthy habitat and lifestyle choices for any given species are defined as
those that provide sufficient amounts of the essential ingredients necessary
for the genetic expression of health and avoid toxic ingredients/materials
that cause the genetic expression of adaption and illness within that species.

8. Failure to make habitat and lifestyle choices that supply sufficient
amounts of the essential ingredients and/or to avoid making toxic habitat
and lifestyle choices always results in the genetic expression of states of
adaptive metabolism resulting in decreased health or increased illness.
Such choices, and the chronic states of metabolic adaptation they elicit, are
pandemic in Industrial Society and are directly responsible for the Chronic
Illness Pandemic.

9. Making habitat and lifestyle choices that supply sufficient amounts of
the essential ingredients and/or refraining from making toxic habitat and
lifestyle choices, always results in the genetic expression of increased
homeostatic (healthy) states of metabolism resulting in increased health
or decreased illness.

10. To get and stay well, you must ‘Live Right for Your Species Type’, you must
engage in habitat and lifestyle choices that increase the sufficient supply
of the essential eating, moving, thinking, and social interaction ingredients
and/or decrease the delivery of toxic ingredients that assist in the genetic expression of health for your species.
