The author applies a no-nonsense approach to dieting, exercising, disease treating, and other aspects of everyday life. Our looks, longevity, as well as our physical and mental conditions result from the way we eat, breathe, and take care of all our physical and psychological needs. The question is not limited to nutrition only, as is the case of dieting programs.
I come from a medical family. As a child, I asked my mother why she was not able to cure my ill father and why she was suffering from heartaches and insomnia. When I did not get an answer, I understood that medicine concerns itself only with the application of drugs. Biology is a much more comprehensive science that allows inquiring about every little detail of human body. This is why I chose biology, even though my mother wished me to study medicine.
I had once liver cirrhosis, caused by improper nutrition administered by my mother-physician. During my childhood, I frequently suffered from constipation. Spinal injuries caused me to lose sensation in my lower limbs for two years. According to doctors, I had no chance to walk again.
During my university years, I took part in a scientific expedition to the Far East where I met with Tibetan monks. Their approach to the human body is different and very interesting. I learned some secrets from them that allow diagnosing of disorders from the way people look, walk, or even wear out their shoes. I also became convinced that it is never just a single organ that is ill in a human body. When something causes us pain and we start treating it, we are fighting symptoms and do not address causes. This is why the problem can manifest itself in some other place, causing pain associated with a completely different disease. I do not treat diseases as something concrete. They are just irregularities in our body's normal functioning.
There are several factors causing damage to our health: incorrect breathing, improper eating and drinking, not enough exercise and joy of life, and also such emotions as envy, greed, or anger. We constantly have problems and dilemmas and this significantly shortens our life.
I would like to turn your attention to the fact that we know very little about our body and its close relationship with the natural environment. Our future life often depends on the method of treatment we choose in a case of a health crisis. In cases when mainstream medicine cannot offer any help, we should remember that there are natural therapies that can prove themselves very effective.
I am deeply convinced that we should be our own advisor and doctor in many situations. We need to attain enough knowledge about the way our body functions to be capable of eliminating the causes of our illness and suffering.
If, as a result of my advice, some people start feeling better, some get cured, and some realize the necessity of health maintenance, the objective of my books will be fulfilled.
I have tried many methods and remedies in my practice and selected those, which are indeed valuable and effective. They are presented here for you to explore. Please use them wisely.
I wish you good health,
Mikhail Tombak
