THE ASTONISHING NEW
THEORY OF "HEALTH
OPTIMIZATION"
"Health optimization" is main-
taining the delicate balance of fac-
tors for good health and longevity,
as based on scientific findings. By
the "wooden barrel" concept, the
shortest piece of wood determines
how much water the barrel holds.
Similarly, the weakest link in our
body affects longevity. Thus, the
lack of calcium leads to muscle
cramps; over-exerting a compro-
mised heart would lead to sudden
death from heart attack, even
though all other systems in the
body function normally. Workers
were astonished to discover the
proportion of dozens of trace ele-
ments in our blood to be similar
to that of sea water and went on to
propose that a lack of balance of
these trace elements leads to
cancer, heart and brain arterial
diseases, e.g., heart diseases may
be related to the lack of balance of
cobalt, zinc, manganese; strokes,
to calcium, magnesium, selenium
and zinc; hypertension, to high
sodium, low potassium and lack of
magnesium; Ka-shan disease and
osteoarthrosis deformans, to lack
of selenium. Even insomnia of the
elderly is related to the progres-
sive lack of melatonin secreted by
our pineal gland. For our longevity,
it pays to study further such deli-
cate balances.
