BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS
1. No breakfast
People who do not eat breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level.
This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating
Overeating causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.

3. Smoking
Smoking causes various forms of brain shrinkage, which can lead to Alzheimer's disease.

4. High sugar consumption
Too much sugar can interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients. This can cause malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep deprivation
Long-term deprivation of sleep can accelerate the death of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with your head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide while decreasing the concentration of oxygen. This may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying while ill may lead to a decrease in brain effectiveness as well as possible damage to the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, and a lack of brain stimulation and complex thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations promote the efficiency of the brain.

THE MAIN CAUSES OF LIVER DAMAGE:
1. Sleeping late and waking-up late.
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3. Over eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too many preservatives, additives, food colorings, and artificial sweeteners.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. Reduce cooking oil use as much as possible when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired.
8. Consuming overly cooked foods adds to the burden on the liver. Veggies should be eaten raw or lightly cooked. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting; do not store.

You can prevent illness without necessarily spending more money. We just have to adopt a good, daily lifestyle and healthy eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits is very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals.

TIMES WHEN THE BODY REPAIRS
Evening at 9 - 11pm: this is the time for eliminating unnecessary/toxic chemicals (detoxification) in the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time period should be spent relaxing or listening to music. If during this time, a person is still in an un-relaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this can have a negative impact on health.

Evening at 11pm - 1am: the detoxification process in the liver begins at this time, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 1 - 3am: detoxification process in the gall begins; also ideally done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 3 - 5am: this is the time detoxification in the lungs takes place. Therefore, there will sometimes be a severe cough for lung sufferers during this time. Since the detoxification process has now reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine, so not to interfere with the toxin removal process.

Morning 5 - 7am: detoxification in the colon takes place during this time period, and the bowels should be emptied at this time.

Morning 7 - 9am: absorption of nutrients in the small intestine. One should have breakfast at this time. For those who are sick, breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30 am. Breakfast before 7:30 am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late, until 9 - 10 am, rather than eat no meal at all.

Sleeping late and waking up late will disrupt the process of removing unnecessary chemicals. Aside from that, midnight to 4:00 am is the time when the bone marrow produces blood. Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late.
