What more we need ?
Krishna Ravi Kumar
Friends,
Sri Chakrapani who, fortunately, lives amongst us in Akshay Nagar, periodically opens his knowledge floodgates to make us aware of human wellness, using unadulterated traditional natural healing systems.
Each cell is "you". Each cell wants to live well in unison with other trillions within the body. Right living, Yoga, optimal use of five primordial elements etc. establish health of each cell & collective health of all these cells is "your" wellness.
Please read on Sri Chakrapani's brilliant exposition.

More Bacterial than Human!
Most of us know that our body is made up of cells. Perhaps many may not know how many cells are there. It is a mind blowing figure, 75 trillion in an average adult! Each one of them is living as we do, eating, breathing, excreting…. About 350 crores (3.5 billion) cells are dying daily and equal number is born to replace them. So long as this demand is met, we maintain our health. Else we age and shrink slowly. We know that if the raw material is good, only then final product will be good. That is why our ancestors carefully designed the food and passed down to us over centuries. We have thrown all that to dumps and are aping the west. Remember the saying, “God may forgive our sins, but our nerves will never.”
Other startling fact is that our body is 70% water. That means that when we walk, it is as if a water body or a container is moving! So, each of these cells also contain profuse quantity of water. We have to keep these cells well hydrated to remain healthy and postponing the aging process. Again the cells are surrounded by water, which is essential to avoid friction among them. This will keep chances of cancer at hay. Best way to hydrate them is to drink at least three or four glasses of water first thing in the morning. We may find it difficult in the beginning, but would get used to it soon. Then most of your health problems would be gone. Another way to nourish the skin cells is to apply virgin coconut / sesame seed oil or raw cow’s milk all over the skin half an hour before bath. Use only proven herbal products.
Most jaw dropping fact is that all of us are living with about 2.5 Kg. bacteria in an average adult in and on the body. In terms of figures, it is 10 times of our body cells or 750 trillion! We do not have to panic since as much as 80% is friendly bacteria and the rest is hostile. The friendly ones keep the other always under check. We cannot live without them. We need them in the soil to grow food, in the air to fight pollution, in the body for digestion, absorption, recycling and a variety of functions. But the sad aspect is that with the use of more and more modern medicine based on synthetic chemicals, friendly bacteria are being sacrificed and the hostile bacteria are becoming more and more stubborn.
Thus, we are more bacterial than human! That is God’s design to protect us from all possible ways. We are slowly forgetting and are lured by the ads that portray bacteria as monsters and make us spend much on Dettol etc. The companies are becoming richer and richer and we are where we were with respect to bacteria! How many of us human beings are being human? Hope this is not because we are overwhelmed by bacteria! Think man, think!
