And also a good dose of happiness to accompany all of Dr. Mercola's good advice. Albert Schweitzer, the Nobel Peace Prize-winning physician and philosopher, said that "happiness is also good health and a bad memory." A bad memory can be useful for forgetting past disappointments and maintaining healthy optimism, but nothing affects our moment-to-moment satisfaction as much as the condition of our bodies. A common cold is as depressing as it is painful and uncomfortable. Schweitzer also famously said, "Every patient carries his own doctor within." He couldn't have been more right about how our bodies are designed to heal themselves and how they work to keep us functioning at our best, even at the most minute level. Arguably, no one works harder to keep us healthy (and therefore happy) than our mitochondria.
Our mitochondria keep our neurons firing, our muscles flexing, and our hearts beating. In short, they keep us alive. Even if you don't feel it, these microscopic powerhouses are constantly producing the cellular energy we need to function at the most basic level.
1) Increase energy levels
2) Keep blood sugar levels under control
3) Using NAD to boost cellular energy to support healthy mitochondrial function and overall health as we age.
We have many "doctors" in our lives who support our mitochondria and can infuse us with joy and health:
1) Doctor Nature: sunshine, air, and pure water
2) Doctor Healthy Nutrition and Fasting
3) Doctor Physical Activity with Rest and Good Posture
4) Doctor Joy-Supported Mindset
The feeling of joy comes from the activity of the nervous system, specifically our neurotransmitters. These transmitters carry chemicals throughout our body, including the feel-good chemicals mentioned in the previous paragraph, also known as "joy" chemicals. When you have a high concentration of these chemicals in your system, your physical health improves. Better sleep, improved digestion, weight loss, and a stronger immune system are just some of the benefits of a happy mood. When you feel happy, your circulatory system may respond by flushing your cheeks and raising your body temperature—it's the face of happiness.
