Eminyakeni engaphezu kwengu-2000 edlule, uHippocrates washo ngokudumile ukuthi, “Zonke izifo ziqala emathunjini.” Eminyakeni yamuva, siye sabona ukubaluleka kwala mazwi nokuthi isimo samathumbu sithinta kangakanani impilo yengqondo, ngokomzimba nangokomoya. Lokhu kusho ukuthi inani lama-bacterium emathunjini likhulu ngokuphindwe ka-10 kunenani lamangqamuzana asemzimbeni womuntu. Izinombolo ezinjalo kunzima ukuzicabanga, kodwa… Ngokuvamile, izivikeli mzimba zomuntu ziba buthaka ngenxa yokungalingani kwamagciwane amathumbu, kanye nokuchichima kobuthi obungaphakathi nangaphandle. Ukuletha inani lamabhaktheriya ekulinganiseni (okungcono ama-85% amagciwane amahle futhi afike ku-15% angathathi hlangothi) kungabuyisela kufikela ku-75% wokuzivikela komzimba wakho. Yini esingayenza? Umphakathi wethu uhlala usohambeni, futhi ukudla kuvame ukudliwa ngokushesha okukhulu, ngezinye izikhathi ngisho nalapho ushayela noma usebenza. Kubahlali abaningi basemadolobheni amakhulu, ukudla kuwuhlobo lokuphazamiseka esiswele kakhulu isikhathi sakho. Kubaluleke kakhulu ukufunda ukuzihlonipha wena nempilo yakho futhi uzinike isikhathi esanele sokudla ukuphumula. Ukuphumula nokuhlafuna ukudla ngokungajahi kuyinto engcono kakhulu esingayenzela ukugaya kwethu. Kunconywa ukuhlafuna okungenani izikhathi ezingu-30 ngaphambi kokugwinya. Ungaqala ngezikhathi eziyi-15-20, okuzobe sekukhona umehluko obonakalayo. Imicu yezitshalo, amaprotheni anempilo, amafutha amantongomane, imbewu, kanye ne-algae konke kubaluleke kakhulu empilweni yamathumbu. Ama-smoothie aluhlaza ayindlela enhle yokusekela umsebenzi wokugaya ukudla. Qinisekisa ukuthi udla izakhi ezihlukahlukene zokudla okuhlukahlukene futhi ulalele intuition yakho. Ekuqaleni, udinga ukuqeda ubuthi emzimbeni, bese usebenza ekubuyiseleni ibhalansi yamagciwane amahle futhi umzimba wakho uzokwazi ukukutshela ukuthi yiziphi izakhi ezingenayo ngesikhathi esisodwa.
