Preface

Fresh air, Pure water and bright light
Are Nature’s gifts which set us right.

With the advance of civilization mankind is getting weaker day by day. Diseases are increasing in number and are becoming more severe in type. New diseases appear and swell the number of those which defy diagnosis and treatment. The average length of life is shrinking. The rate of sickness shows no appreciable improvement. The boasted science of healing is almost daily enriched by researches and discovery of new remedies, but the art of effecting cures is not able to keep pace with it. This is mainly because the medical profession is adopting measures which tend to suppress disease by means of poisonous drugs instead of intelligently using Nature’s bounties which not only cure radically but can also prevent disease permanently.

Fresh air, pure water and bright light are Nature’s gifts which are an invaluable aid to perfect health.

The poor and the illiterate especially in villages are shutting their doors against these gifts of Nature through sheer ignorance though there is no dearth of these beneficial bounties where they live. The townsmen in their race for wealth neglect their health and do not take sufficient advantage of these bounties.

Drugs and injections cure one disease but beget another more serious than the original one. They often work havoc on the system more than the disease. Some centuries ago the average duration of human life was a hundred years but now-a-days we find the majority enter an early grave. All know that death is inevitable but only a few believe that good health is natural and a legitimate heritage of man. Nature is a hard—task master. Those who transgress Her laws cannot escape punishment in the form of disease and illness. Good health is the result and reward of implicit obedience to Her laws.

In the following pages the author has attempted to point out the deleterious effects of poisonous drugs and drastic measures upon the human system and to show in the light of accumulated experience how diseases can safely be treated, cured and also prevented with the aid of Nature’s bounties.
