Recently an associate of my children fell off their horse while riding. The hard impact with the ground caused rib, artery and blood circulation damage in her arm that required vascular surgery later that week. Otherwise her arm may have required amputation. They would also need to remove one rib in this procedure.Understand that this person has been a diet health expert and yoga instructor for over twenty years. And before fifteen years, she's never even needed to see a medical expert for anything.When she met with the doctor four days before the surgery he did not instruct her on any special way to prepare her 63 year old body for the surgery. She expected that, but new better.Because of her own diet health experience and extensive knowledge she knew she had a need to go on a 3-day juice fast diet before the surgery. She had been very healthy and slim, but surgery and all that pain may take a significant toll on a body that age.Most people don't understand that pain, especially internal pain from surgery is extremely amplified by the presence of any processed sugars (white sugar), fat, and toxins in the body. By sticking to her strict diet health regimen she knew that it could minimize her pain, reduce her dosage of addictive pain medications, and cut her total recovery time down up to 50%.She made an organic juice mixture, which contained kale, wheatgrass, cabbage, celery, and other types of greens. She also drank plenty of water, took vitamin and mineral supplements along with ten to fifteen thousand milligrams of vitamin C per day. She didn't eat one single little bit of food until following the surgery. And even after the surgery she planned on eating very little and continuing the vegetable juice regimen for a few more days.Why was she doing all this? She was cleansing her body of fat and toxins to prepare and boost her immune system for the large task before itself. She also was loading her body with crucial vitamins and minerals that the body's cells might use as fuel to repair damaged areas. The extra water was to make sure optimal body hydration and cleansing.But How Would I Get The Health Food In The Hospital?When we realized she would be in a healthcare facility for a couple of days following the surgery probably the most ironic thing popped up. How would she be capable of geting her organic health food in to the hospital?This hospital didn't allow outside food for patients. This way your doctor can watch what you eat.There was no chance that she would go without her organic green juice or the inability to eat fresh organic vegatables and fruits during her inpatient healing process. We were likely to have to smuggle the health food into the hospital. Yes, "smuggle the health food into the hospital."While she was having the five hour operation, I was in the hotel making the green juice and organic food for her to eat and drink. When I was done I brought the cooler with the juice and food, wrapped in a blanket, around her room.Busted With MEDICAL FoodUnfortunately, as I was transferring the juice from the cooler to the tiny fridge in her room one of the nurses caught me. I was "busted" putting balanced diet in a patients room.But I did not let her take it or remove it, instead I insisted that the physician be notified because maybe he could approve the exterior food for her. Surely there was a way to keep the health food in a healthcare facility.Naturally the hospital offered her a selection off of their cafeteria menu, which was only a step up from junk food. "Let's see, she just got done surgery maybe she should have a cheeseburger, some pudding, jell-o, mashed potatoes, pizza, soda, milkshakes, roast beef, bread etc." Each of the food on the menu was non-organic and filled up with chemicals and preservatives.The physician advised her to consume a healthcare facility food, although he approved her health food because he didn't see how it might "do any injury to her." But she had to place labels with her name onto it so no other patients would touch it.Then it dawned on me, I realized that the cafeteria food is what all the other patients were eating. People who have diseases like cancer, other folks recovering from surgery, and folks with traumatic injuries etc., were eating this each day.How the hell is anyone supposed to progress eating that junk? As the doctors do a good job at diagnosing problems they aren't really educated on diet health, that was quite obvious.One night after her surgery she asked the physician to take her off the morphine. She couldn't stand feeling such as a drugged zombie anymore. He initially said "he wouldn't do it" because he didn't think she understood just how much pain she'd experience. She demanded that he take her off the morphine because she knew she had gotten her body in a position to deal with pain also it wouldn't be that bad.After what converted into quite an argument the physician said "fine" in frustration almost as if he was telling her "alright if you think you do not want any pain medication you go on and check it out for a night and see what goes on." Another morning he came directly into check on her and his jaw dropped when he walked in the area.It had been significantly less than 36 hours after her surgery and she was sitting up in her bed reading a book and eating a salad. She had without any pain and felt fine, because of her strict cleansing and diet health regimen prior to the surgery. He admitted that he was quite impressed and had never seen someone get over surgery like that, but acted as if she was just lucky.She still includes a long road of recovery before she actually is completely back to normal and may ride a horse again. But her recovery time, state of being, and health are dramatically improved by her very own efforts of taking care of herself before and after the operation. This operation finished up being truly a speed bump for her body rather than a dead end road that resulted in more sickness and disability, like most medical problems often do.The reason I wrote that is to get you to really think about your diet health insurance and our health and wellness care system. While doctors do a lot to greatly help people, their main focus is on sickness, not health.Educate yourself and find out about YOUR body so that you can continually be in top condition and be able to swiftly cope with any adversity that comes the right path, like in this situation.
