Health

Since I've covered the obvious component of living a self-sufficient lifestyle (alternative energy), I would now like to share an aspect of the diy life that is often overlooked: health. Like alternative energy, equally important is maintaining bodily health through detoxification, diet and exercise. These three things, all being inextricably linked with one-another, together will allow you to reduce or eliminate medical bills; eliminate dependence upon the medical establishment and the subsequent check-ups, pills, etc; and ease your mind by not being concerned about the state of public health care. Essentially, you will be IN CONTROL of your your life!

Unfortunately, there are the misconceptions that in order to be healthy you need to spend an atrocious amount of money on specialized supplements, exercise gizmos, food, gym memberships and whatever other false information has been toted by pseudo-nutritionists and/or fitness "professionals". The truth of the matter is that if you occasionally detox through fasting, make mild modifications to your diet (such a dirty word. Are you cringing yet?) and exercise for a few minutes every so often then you will be bursting with energy and experiencing the supreme bliss of being healthy and free. So seize your Independence from the medical profession by checking out the list I have compiled with some of the best programs available in losing weight and feeling great, again, with the least amount of effort or money involved as possible.
