Prescription for Radiant Health©
a primer in natural health and healing
Frank A. Lucas PhD, NHC
There is so much information about health concerns and
supplements that it is easy to be overwhelmed by the tsunami.
But, it is risky to ignore the issue. There are a few basics that you should consider if you want to protect,
or promote you state of health.

Is it any wonder that this torrent of minutia has you confused?
Books, magazines, billboards, infomercials, television, radio and TV talk
shows that feature experts dissecting real and imaginary health concerns that
“every American should know about.”
Advertisers are bombarding you with sound bites and glossy pages
for: prescriptive and over the counter and natural advances. Smiling faces extolling
pills, potions, lotions and "near miraculous additives"
to food and water. |
The Basics for Staying Healthy
“You break it – you bought it.” Your challenge is to remove
yourself from this quagmire of irrelevance and come face-to-face with this
warning about your health that is similar to a sign you often see in antique
stores.
“It is easier to stay healthy than to become healthy.”
should be your motto concerning your state of health.
Certainly, you need to consider the possibility of “bad luck”, an unforeseen accident or a particularly virulent infective agent, but if you manage the factors that you can control, it is more likely that you will enjoy the benefits of being healthy.
Declining health is not inevitable, but it is predictable.
The predictors are:
You are what you eat.
Joel Wallach, DVM, ND, a noted author, sought out speaker and producer of a controversial tape:
Dead Doctors Don’t Lie frequently points out: “If a visit to the Super Market results in bags of cans,
boxes and bags of food, you should throw away the contents and eat the packaging.”
The message is that processing, preserving, enhancing the appearance and taste of these products significantly diminishes their nutritional value. Whole food, fresh, ripe and properly prepared, is the superior choice.
Keep your body as clean on the inside as well as the outside.
In 2006, The American Holistic Medical Association, Guide To Holistic Health reports:
“There are an estimated 80,000 chemicals regularly in use today, with an additional 1,000 to 2,000 chemicals added to this list each year. Only 3 percent of them have been tested to determine whether they are toxic or carcinogenic. In 1998, the United states released approximately 500 billion tons of toxic chemicals into the environment.”
People shower or bathe everyday to keep the outside of their bodies clean - it is the healthy thing to do. What about the inside? The “stuff” in the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat builds up over time. Keeping the inside of your body as clean as the outside pays dividends.
Take responsibility, then do the best you can.
You have the most to lose if your health is compromised. Invest in
your health. Stop expecting that someone or some magical machine; thing or plant will fix what you have broken. It is your body that maintains your health using the nutrients derived from the things you put in your mouth. Ask the question: “Will my body thank me for this later?”

Which do you prefer?
- Stress, fast food, skipping meals and inactivity is the set of predictors for
declining health.
- Rest, a healthy diet and moderate exercise predicts Radiant Health.

I cover the known deficiencies that exist in everyone’s diet with the essentials for wellbeing.
Enzymes are the work force of the body, but they wear out. The only source the body has for replacing them is from consuming raw food. I prefer my food cooked, so I take an
enzyme supplement.
Trace minerals are essential for life. They keep the body in balance, to support nerve function, brain function, heart function, cardiovascular function, immune function and a host of others. They exit the body in perspiration, other fluids and waste. The only source the body has for replacing them is from consuming fresh vegetables and fruits that are grown in soils that contain these 70 or so water soluble minerals. Most of them aren’t plus, it don’t consume as many as I should, so I take a
liquid trace mineral supplement.
Without the million of healthy microbes in my digestive tract, I would die. They convert the food I consume into the nutrition to support my body. As important as they are to my wellbeing, they are sensitive, and often killed, by acidic food, alcoholic beverages, too many sugary foods, soft drinks, residual herbicides and pesticides in the food and in the air, over the counter and prescription drugs – to name a few. I take a
probiotic supplement to keep this army
fortified and strong.
I know parasites are out there and looking for a home. I go
places and do things: eat meals out, go to the movies, shop, pet my animals and
I am around other people, so why take the
chance – I get rid of them. Twice each year, I
manage parasites.
I view supplements as an investment in my short and long-term health. I invest around $2.50 a day
for my supplements. It has worked for 20 years – I doubt I will be changing it.
Next, I filter my choices through a question that I ask myself before I choose to do
something: “Will my body thank me for this later?” When the answer is yes, more
often than not, I know I am contributing to my wellbeing.
If the answer is no, I use a supplement that is formulated with combinations of complementary, natural
ingredients, intended for a particular purpose, to
fill the gap left by my
choices.
It’s Your Life – It’s Your Choice
Your investment will depend on what you do, everyday, and how long you
have neglected your body’s basic needs.
- Choose wisely
- Make changes where you
can
- Then use supplements to fill the gap.
Just remember: “You break it, you bought it.” Health is a journey that features you, the person who has
the most to gain, or lose, when you choose a path.
NOTE: Are you
as healthy as you think?

Q: *What is a Nutraceutical supplement?
A:
