The Roadmap To
Ultimate Health
How To Get Well, Stay Well,
And Never Be Sick Again
The next major advance in the health of the
American people will be determined by what
the individual is willing to do for himself.

ONE DISEASE
The Beyond Health Model acknowledges only One Disease malfunctioning cells. Until cells
malfunction, there can be no disease.
All of us started life as a single cell. We grew into bodies made up of more than 75 trillion individual cells,
all acting together as a community that constantly communicates, self regulates, and self repairs. If all your
cells are functioning optimally, it is impossible to be sick. Only when a massive number of cells malfunction
do we experience the symptoms of disease.
Regardless of which disease you suffer from, what you really have are malfunctioning cells. Cancer, diabetes
or the common cold, its all the same thing: malfunctioning cells. Understanding this takes the mystery out
of disease. Once you understand there is only one disease, this gives you the power to create health instead
of disease.
If we contend there is only one disease, why do doctors believe there are thousands of diseases? The reason
is that cells are very complex. There are many different ways in which they can malfunction, producing
thousands of different symptoms. Doctors call these different sets of symptoms different diseases. The key
to understanding this is to understand why cells malfunction.
Only REAL FOOD supplies your cells with the critical nutrients they need. In our society, however, its not
easy to eat REAL FOOD 100 percent of the time. Whatever effort you make to add more REAL FOOD to
your diet will move you toward health and away from chronic disease and preventable obesity.
The quality of the supplements you take will have a major influence on how they are used in your body and
the effect they have on your health. Therefore, choosing supplements with the highest quality and purity is
the only wise choice, but it is a task for an expert. This is why Beyond Health researches supplements and
provides a service to the public by identifying and making available only the very best.
At the very minimum, everyone should be taking at least three supplements daily. That includes a highquality multi-vitamin/mineral, a non-toxic vitamin C and essential fatty acids. It is critical that you provide
the cells what they need on a daily basis. If youre not providing the basics, youre guaranteed to have
cellular deficiencies one of the two causes of disease.
Exercise regularly:
Rebounding is especially helpful (see the Physical Pathway). Drink generous amounts of purified water. A
good rule to follow is half your body weight in ounces; if you weigh 120 pounds, drink 60 ounces of water
daily; if you weigh 200 pounds, it is 100 ounces.

sunlight is an essential, highly-beneficial nutrient. Too much food is harmful to your body and too much sun
can be harmful as well. But full spectrum sunlight, in the proper amount, is vital to your health. Sunlight
feels good on your skin and makes you feel good. It affects the brain, cultivating a positive attitude. Many
people become depressed during prolonged periods of gray days without sunshine.
Sunlight boosts the immune system, helps keep hormones balanced, helps lower blood sugar, increases the
bodys ability to deal with stress, lowers blood pressure, and reduces the resting heart rate (lessening the
work load on the heart). The sun draws toxins out of your body through the skin. Sunlight helps your body
produce vitamin D. Sunlight is one of the few sources of vitamin D, which is essential for strong and healthy
bones and for preventing cancer, multiple sclerosis, and other diseases.
One more thing: 96% of the nutrients your body uses every day are acquired from the air that you
breathe, rather than from the food you eat. You can go days without food and even water, but you
cannot go for more than a few minutes without oxygen. Oxygen is your cells most vital nutrient.
Inhaling high-quality air in order to maintain your health is something we rarely consider, yet it can
drastically affect how we look and feel, our resistance to disease, and even how long we live. Deep
breathing of fresh air is an essential part of health maintenance. Oxygenating your cells energizes
your body. The more oxygen available to your cells, the more energetic you will feel and the less
hungry. The next time you are hungry or tired, take a few minutes to practice deep breathing outside.
Your appetite will likely be suppressed and your sluggishness diminished.

characteristics, such as hair color, we also have genetic predispositions. These could include a predisposition
to cancer, gum disease, insulin resistance, or obesity.
Genetic research has given us a new understanding of genes, the role they play in human health, and how each of us
has more power than we realize to control what happens in our genes and in our lives. For example, we now know
diet and lifestyle have tremendous impact on how the genes we inherit influence our health.
Genes have the potential to invite disease, but what you do with your life and how your diet and lifestyle
instruct your genes is more important in determining the story of your life. So, whether or not we contract
an illness is determined by the instructions we give our genes. This means that if we dont like the results
were getting, we need to and have the ability to change the instructions.
For the most part, you have the ability to turn a genetic potential into a genetic reality by triggering the precise
environmental or mental factors that will turn on the associated genes. So, consider the following powerful information:
Genes may run our lives, but we can control our genes, so we run our lives.
We need to protect our genes from damage by avoiding toxic chemicals and exposure to radiation such as
X-rays, while supplying them with the nutrients required for daily DNA repair.
The environment we create for our genes determines how they express. We need to create a healthy
environment by protecting them from toxins, exercising appropriately, controlling stress, eating a good
diet and taking supplements to supply our cells with all the nutrients they need on a daily basis to keep our
cell chemistry balanced. Nutrient-rich foods help create a chemical environment in each cell that keeps the
health-producing genes turned on and the fat-storing, rapid-aging, and disease-producing genes turned off.
When you grasp the nature of your genes as something you control, you will also understand that you have
power over disease. You turn genes on and off through the chemical, electromagnetic, physical, and mental
environments you create. A mixture of signals given by your environment, lifestyle, nutrition, and even
thoughts determine how you control your genes.
When a cell is provided with the proper nutrients, kept free from toxins, and placed in a supportive
environment, health-supporting genes are activated, aging and disease-causing genes remain dormant and
then both you and your cells remain healthy.
The interaction between inherited genes, nutritional intake, environment, and belief at any point in time are
the triggers that determine your current state of health or disease, including how long you will live. Disease
and old age are the result of the rate at which we age, not the number of years we have been on the planet.
Moving yourself in the right direction on the Genetic Pathway will allow you to enjoy a long and disease-free life.

Never willingly and without question surrender control of your health. Instead, educate yourself
before you follow the advice of anyone, including a physician. Remember, most physicians have only a
limited set of tools (drugs and surgery) that are outmoded, ineffective, and proven to be dangerous.
Always ask if there is a better, safer alternative before you agree to take toxic drugs or undergo
risky surgery. Always seek a second opinion. Remember, a second opinion doesnt have to come from
another medical doctor.
It is usually better to seek Ultimate Healthcare rather than Conventional Medicine.
Conventional Medicine is what most medical doctors practice. Obsolete and more than 100 years behind the
technology, conventional medicine doesnt address the true causes of disease, because most doctors have
been taught to prescribe drugs and do not understand the roles of Deficiency and Toxicity.
Physicians use powerful synthetic drugs to suppress symptoms and keep the patient out of immediate danger,
while the patient continues the unhealthy lifestyle that caused the problem in the first place. In the meantime,
the drugs themselves are toxic, and they interfere with normal metabolism and inhibit the natural healing
process. Drugs cause cells to malfunction, creating and promoting disease making everything worse.
Surgery is often recommended for many of the problems presented to physicians, but why would anyone
think the way to restore health is to cut out body parts that are essential to health? Its been estimated that
as many as 90 percent of surgical procedures are unnecessary, including 90 percent of hysterectomies and
up to 97 percent of coronary bypass surgeries. Using Conventional Medicine, diseases and obesity remain
13
chronic, patients suffer, and medical and social costs continue to increase astronomically all this in the
name of disease management. Ask yourself if you want your diseases managed or if you want to choose
health and get well.
