NUTRITION
What is NUTRITION?

NUTRITION is proper
amount (gidaghanon) and
proper quality (nutritional,
vitamin) food taken at a
proper time.
The kinds of food we eat
affect our character. Our
bodies are built up from the
food we eat. There is
constant breaking down of
tissues of the body; every
organ involves waste and this
waste is repaired from our
food. Each organ of the body
requires its share of nutrition.
 OUR BODY MACHINES
HEART – produces more or less 100,000 beats a day
BLOOD- circulates in our body about 17 miles a day
LUNGS – we breathe about 20,000 times a day
MUSCLE – moves 750 times a day
MOUTH – there are 4,000 words spoken a day
BRAIN – there are 14 billions of cells in our brain that are
constantly use everyday
 In order to know what the best foods are, we must study
God’s original plan for man’s diet. He who created man
and understood his needs appointed Adam his foods.
Genesis 1:29; 3:18
1:29 – And God said, behold, I have given you every herb
bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and
every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed;
to you it shall be for meat.
3:18 – Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee;
and thou shalt eat the herb of the field.

during the hour of rest.
• Sleep is the greatest body storer.
• Best sleep is early sleep, especially before
midnight.
• Duringgood rest, the batteries of the brain are
recharged.
• Our body needs 7-8 hours of sleep every night.

AND ON THE SEVENTH DAY GOD ENDED HIS
WORK WHICH HE HAD MADE;AND HE RESTED
ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL HIS WORK
WHICH HE HAD MADE.
AND GOD BLESSED THE SEVENTH DAY, AND
SANCTIFIED IT; BECAUSE THAT IN IT HE HAD
RESTED FROM ALL HIS WORK WHICH GOD
CREATED AND MADE.

APPETITE AND LUST, IS POSSIBLE TO EVERYONE
WHO WILL UNITE HIS WEAK, WAVERING HUMAN
WILL TO THE OMNIPOTENT, UNWAVERING WILL OF
GOD.
MATTHEW 11:28 ‘COME UNTO ME….. AND I WILL
GIVE REST”

NAME, I WILL DO IT”

and Practice of Health and Healing” June 1993, p. 108 nag-ingon:
ang pagbaton ug maayong panglawas dili makasiguro sa atong
kaluwasan apan kini makatabang sa matin-aw nga
panghunahuna, makalikay sa pagkahugaw sa mga galamhan ug
sa kalag, 3T 501 ug labaw nga kasiguruhan sa pagpatalinghug sa
tingog sa Dios nga maoy makatabang sa Espiritu Santo sa
pagsiguro sa atong kaluwasan.
