"A cure of the part should not be attempted without treatment of the whole. No attempt should be made to cure the body without the soul and, if the head and body are to be healthy, you must begin curing the mind...for this is the great error of our day in the treatment of the human body, the physicians first separate the soul from the body."
Plato, 5th Century BC
The Rationale Behind The Archturus Range
It is important to remember that food is our main healer and that supplements work in synergy with it to achieve good health. Once we are out of balance, we usually need both in order to restore our metabolism to proper function.
In order to get the best results from supplements an ideal diet will be:
- Free from salt, sugar, dairy products, yeast, processed foods, chemical additives, stimulants and alcoholic beverages.
- High in leaf, root and stem vegetables and in 'neutral grains' (ie. without gluten), such as millet and brown rice.
- High in antioxidant vegetables eg: onions, garlic, cabbage, broccoli, watercress, Brussels sprouts.
- Low in saturated fats, high in essential fatty acids, especially of the Omega-3 variety which are abundant in fish, edible linseed oil and fish oil.
- Low in animal-derived foods. These foods are main sources of protein so they should be replaced to some extent with pulses which also contain good levels of dietary protein.
- Organically grown rather than conventionally grown to avoid the intake of pesticides, herbicides, hormones and antibiotics.
