Regenerative Health In 3 Steps

There is a common thread between environmental programs and social programs that we initiated at Environmental and Social Actions (ESA) (https://lnkd.in/gpuX73Jz), that common thread is one word, namely 'Regenerative'. If in the energy sector we introduce the concept of Regenerative Energy (RE), then in the health sector there is Regenerative Health (RH).

Just as RE is used to solve the problem of energy needs in a fundamental way, similarly in the health sector with RH, it is to overcome all health problems in a very basic way. If in RE what we use to 'give birth' to new energies is carbon, in RH the source of health is what is called Stem Cells. What exactly are these Stem Cells?

Stem Cells are stem cells from which new cells are born with various functions. If the quantity and quality of these Stem Cells is maintained, new cells will always be born that our body needs to replace cells damaged due to age, disease or injury/accident, etc.

Because of the extraordinary nature of Stem Cells, there is an expensive treatment using Stem Cell injections - to multiply Stem Cells in the patient's body. However, this is not the case with the RH concept, the quantity and quality of Stem Cells are not produced by injection from outside the body - but are grown internally by our own body.

RH essentially maintains our body's health by maintaining the quantity and quality of Stem Cells in the body. So what can we do for this? These three steps will be able to maintain and improve the quantity and quality of Stem Cells in our body.

First, by ensuring that our stomach is always not in a full position, there must always be empty space in it. In the hadith it is stated that 1/3 of our stomach is for air or breathing. The scientific language is Caloric Restriction (CR), experiments carried out by scientists with mice showed that emptying their stomachs between 10%-40% over a long period increased the production of Stem Cells in the stomachs of these experimental mice.

Second, by fasting frequently, or also called Dietary Restriction (DR). The difference with CR is that if CR gets used to having a stomach that is 1/3 empty continuously, DR allows the stomach to not get any food/drink at all but for short periods - around 12 hours at a time. The impact on the quality of Stem Cells is by improving the quality of their functions. The combination of CR and DR will increase the quantity and quality of Stem Cells in our body.

How do we maintain our body's energy and nutritional needs so that they are always adequately maintained even though our stomachs are always not full and we often fast - don't eat/drink at all for about 12 hours at a time? Our food combinations need to be kept rich in nutrients, not rich in energy, so the third step of RH is High Nutrition (HN) food, not High Energy!
