Prof.
Agyeman Badu Akosa once a pathologist at the Korle Bu teaching hospital
disclosed in the Daily Graphic that, most of the recent deaths
occurring in the country could have been avoided if victims had taken
good care of themselves.
He said most of them are as a result
of what we eat. He said, the government and businessmen spend huge sums
of money in importing sickness into the country.They import cooking oil
which contain fats that can never digest in the human digestive
system. Our human blood has over 75% of it being water, and we know from
our basic science that, oil can never dissolve in water so when this
oil gets into our blood stream, the particles are suspended. These
suspended oil particles pile up to form a plaque which blocks the
arteries preventing the inflow and outflow of blood to the heart. This
defect results in many of the cardiovascular diseases we know today.
In
the early 70s and in the 80s, the only oil found in an average Ghanaian
home was palm oil and coconut oil. Cooking oils like frytol was used on
occasions. But today, it is taken everyday in our homes yet we still
can't identify what is killing us.
*An average Ghanaian eats fruit once in every two months which is very bad. Fruits are to be taken on daily basis.
*An
average Ghanaian drinks water only when he is thirsty but we must drink
water even when we are not thirsty throughout the day even if it is
sipping water at regular intervals.
*An average Ghanaian do not exercise but eats everyday.
*An
average Ghanaian take drugs to cure diseases which was acquired through
a reckless lifestyle. Drugs cannot cure those diseases, only a change
in lifestyle can cure those diseases.
We format our phones
and computers when malwares like viruses invade them but do we think
about what we take into our bodies? Most of them are more than viruses.
Do we take time to overhaul our bodies.
Most
Christians avoid fasting when their church organises a fast but they
don't know what they are missing Fasting is the only method of
overhauling our bodies.
