BRIEFLY ON THE CAUSES OF DISEASE

This is the concluding part of the article, Modern Ailments: Complementary Healing, by Late Dr. Godswill Ogbonna C.A. (MD) PhD (AM)

The first is our eating habit.

 Not enough food is just as bad as eating too much. The case of not eating enough will bring a number of diseases due to a deficiency of minerals essential to the maintenance of health.

Faulty diets like canned, frozen foods with lots of spices may not good for us. The chemicals contained in some foods are positively harmful. Incorrect preparation is also another on diet. A great deal of food value is lost by their incorrect preparation.

Next is shock.

The stages of shock are numerous and may be outlined as follows- prenatal, physical, auric (aural). Emotional and any force of shock to the human system at any stage in life can multiply and derange a set of symptoms, which at the time, may not be readily recognizable. Shock, in one way or another, is one prime factor of deep rooted commitment. Psycho-therapists have discovered just how great a shock can be to the system. We do look at shock from limited side effects.

An instance is where we fall from the stairs and injure ourselves. We think nothing more of it except the physical injuries, but this is shock to the entire system, not just the physical but the emotional, auric, and so on.

Let us also look at colour.

The healing effects of colour and its general outcome on the stability of the individual are contained in a lot of publications. The over stimulation of some colours and the faulty harmonies or clashing of different colours in the home can, in turn, lead to allergy of colour itself. There are some people who should not wear certain colours or have them in their homes. This can be rectified and thus prevent the aggravation of certain kind of illnesses.

Finally, for want of space, we want to consider another one: Radiations.

 I read recently where a young girl was suffering from depression and headache. The problem was traced to the radiation from a TV. Although she was not in the same room with the television, she was sleeping with head in line with the back of the TV set. A removal of the television from the area of the bed secured a cure.

A great many manufacturers have to stop this radiation. It is nevertheless a fact of life that the phenomenon that produces radio, television, cell phone, computers, can affect us all. People living near radio or television broadcasting stations, or live near these telecommunication masts, especially the more sensitive ones, might be responding to the harmful effects there from.

Then there is radiation from, or as it may be called, pollution, from other domestic appliances in and around the home, which can have immediate or cumulative effect on individuals. Even on the not-too-sensitive individuals but after a very long period of accumulation in the body.

Types of radiation include, in broad terms, domestic radiation, cosmic radiation, and local radiation.
