The Rule of Three and Better Health

May 2, 2022 By Alex Gellman

MAKE THREE CHANGES AND IMPROVE YOUR LIFE—

Everywhere we turn today, we encounter guidelines and tips for improving fitness, increasing energy, fighting fat, how to live longer, etc., including here or in my newsletters. We can’t watch TV or explore online without coming across ways to get more healthy, wealthy, and wise. If you’re interested but feeling a little overwhelmed or not sure where to start, a good way to get a new lifestyle plan off the ground is to apply the rule of three.

Plan to isolate THREE things you will do to embrace greater health. This helps make your progress manageable and ultimately successful.
Pick three from the suggestions listed below. Let me know which three are on your list. Alex

  1. Give up for three to five days every week foods that are not so good for you. These may be acid, gluten, and yeasty foods, such as fried, rich dairy products, carbonated sugar or diet beverages, beef and pork, gluten breads (including all whole wheat, multi-grain bread, sugar in all forms), and alcoholic beverages. Eat less of these types of foods because they can create inflammation and a predisposition to a more acidic milieu in the body that predisposes the body to illness and weakened immune and digestive systems.
  2. Incorporate new healthy food into your daily food plan, such as healthier dairy products (yogurt, goat cheese, cottage cheese, rice cheese products, and kefir), more fish, poultry, gluten-free grains (millet, quinoa, brown rice, amaranth, ezekiel, and buckwheat), and gluten-reduced products (rye, kamut, and spelt). The suggested foods will reduce inflammation, improve elimination, and reduce bloating. You’ll also have increased energy and an improved emotional state.
  3. Increase your exercise regime or if you do not workout, introduce a gentle exercise – perhaps 20 minutes twice a week.
  4. Take 30 minutes every week to explore creativity such as music, art, writing, or any other form of personal expression.
  5. Practice mindfulness – “be in the moment” by taking time to be still and at peace. Fifteen minutes of meditation will facilitate this state.
  6. Reach out and open your heart to somebody or volunteer at a charity. This process helps others and lightens any emotional pain you may have.

Glycemic Index vs. Glycemic Load – Why You Need to Know the Difference

The Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load are used to measure the rise of blood sugar when carbohydrates are consumed. It is important to know the difference between these two terms in order to make wise food choices. Carbohydrates are not the enemy – they are an important fuel for our day-to-day activities. But it is […]

Steps to a Healthier Lifestyle with Vega Allergy Testing

  Hidden Food Sensitivities A health consultation with me may involve testing with the Vega Allergy Testing System. This is a non-invasive (and painless) system to test food, chemical, and other intolerances and sensitivities, and isolate foods contributing to inflammation and digestive concerns. It helps identify foods and substances to which you may be sensitive, although not allergic. […]

How to Get a Quick Boost With a Healthy Habit

  I had a woman ask me recently: “Why is my life so hard?” She had experienced a string of stressful life events, including a health scare.

HOMEOPATHY AND WHY IT WORKS

Homeopathy is an incredible system that has the ability to heal and help all who call upon it.

I experienced both protocols growing up and decided to pursue […]

Stress, Your Health, and Nutrition

“Have 5 vegetables a day!” “Eat fresh fruit, not cookies!”     Many of us heard a version of these phrases from a parent or guardian when we were kids. Though we may have protested, even our child-size brains knew they had a point. Your parent’s main concern was that you thrive and grow into […]

Give Yourself the Gift of Mindfulness –

  Whether acknowledged or not, we’ve all experienced at least a few gratifying “living in the moment” moments that were impromptu and remarkable for their impact.
