There is no way any health advisor, of any medical profession, can neglect the statistics that vegans and vegetarians live longer, healthier and slimmer. If they do, they have simply not done their home work. If it is not evident by just looking at a vegan compared with a carnivore we have known this fact for about 40 years now. Just try it, or if eating more plants seem unthinkably hard for you, you might want to see some research, so continue reading below.

It’s simple; aging is oxidation caused by toxins becoming free radicals, which you probably heard of. Oxidation is like ‘rusting’ and as iron turns brown, we turn grey haired and wrinkled at sight, but our organs ‘rust’ too, even if you can’t see it. More in detail this oxidation or destruction of our cells is happening as our mitochondria (the ‘power station’) in our cells where food that we eat is converted into cellular energy together with the oxygen we breathe. If it can’t produce energy the cells die, causing aging or a disease on their way to death. To stop this we have an enzyme called SOD (superoxide dismutase). This enzyme activity is much larger if we eat plants. Whereas if we eat animals we get more toxins for the fewer SoD’s to deal with.
To stop this cellular death we have two choices; stop the intake of toxins, and for those that we can’t avoid we can eat more antioxidants and vitamins and minerals to produce more SOD. There is enough toxins in our environment to cause this oxidation so why willingly put more in us if we have a choice? Now, to the point… A large body of science have showed that a plant based (vegan) diet is helping the cells stay healthy and live longer. And when we study death it is a very clear result, either you are dead or alive, and there is no doubt. What I found over the years is that vegetarians and even better vegans live 17 – 35 years longer than the population in general.

O•live Retreat demystifies health and in the process it stands clear that health is far from drugs or injections made from petrochemicals.
First we make sure you know yourself, your body and what healthy means to you. Then we continue to a good cleanse on all levels, Body·Mind·Soul.
With over 15 years in this business and, as Conde Nast Travel and some others put it "top-ranked" health retreat, we base our work on own O• method, derived from a multitude of methods, both old as Ayurveda and new as Orthomolecular Medicine. You'll get healthier in all areas of life (as we don't think one can leave health at home while going to work and we can't say we are healthy if we destroy our bodies over the weekend or vice versa). One is either healthy or not, and what that means can only be defined by each and one and if that is to indulge in the unhealthy stuff it's because it's really worth it for the only judge - you.
The key training for professionals (individuals and groups) is focused on enhanced productivity through self-inspiration and self-care. As a high equity manager in the finance sector put it - it's all about staying highly inspired. We couldn't agree more and we know how that biochemistry looks like.
Independent studies find that 96% of our guests become more healthy and stay healthy after 6 months, 82% stay healthy after a year. This is a better rate than anyone other treatment or training, as far as we know. Our teachings are based on modern science, and ancient evidence based techniques, and a lot of personal experience with trial and error, in the field of being a healthy human. and healing.
We start all training with a health assessment and by asking what healthy means to each one? How you define it is what counts, but one thing is similar for all no matter what you learnt - a natural, anti-inflammatory lifestyle is everything we need (without drugs) but many things our society finds "normal" cause inflammation and therefore diseases.

For those who are healthy and ready to take their own health out to the world, do more for others and the Earth or have a story to tell we offer Kindfullness projects, support, editing, writing, marketing, translation and publishing.(www.hardonkarma.com)
