Cells make up your organs. When
cells die, your organs fail and health deteriorates, and you age and die. Therefore cellular health plays a pivotal role in your health and well-being.
To maintain and sustain life, some of your cells replicate
themselves continually, such as epithelial cells in your intestine, while
others do not divide, such as your heart cells and neurons in your brain. For this reason, it is important to maintain the cellular health that do not replicate.
The good news is that, on average, most normal human cells have more than 100 years of lifespan built into them.

The bad news is that all human
cells require energy and oxygen to function normally, and in this
oxidative process free radicals are created. For example, when you breathe in
life-giving oxygen, you also breathe out harmful carbon dioxide. This oxidative
process is how your Creator has ingeniously built normal cell death into your
body system to ensure your mortality. Slowly and accumulatively, these free
radicals build up in your cells, leading to premature cell death. You cannot
prolong life indefinitely, but you can extend lifespan by slowing down the
oxidative process of free radicals. In other words, eradication of free
radicals holds the key to health and longevity.
Premature cell death is due to both human and environmental factors, such as bacteria and viruses, free radicals, toxins, and trauma, which can cause irreparable damage to your cells, and thus instrumental in accelerating the demise of these cells. However, many of these factors are not only avoidable but also preventable.
Essentially, genes play an
important role in determining the quality of your cells. In other words, your
genetic time clock governs how long your cells will live, and this is partially
determined at birth. However, your objective is to outpace your genetic
time clock. Remember, nothing is set in stone; you always have a choice—the choice
is all yours.
How Body Cells May Become Damaged
Your body is composed of
negatively and positively charged molecules, which must be balanced in order to
enable your cells to function normally. A free radical is formed when there is imbalance
in these molecules. A free radical also damages other molecules, causing them
to produce more free radicals—and thus creating a chain reaction of damages
that become the scourges of aging and the sources of disease and disorders, in
particular, autoimmune diseases. Read my book: My Myasthenia Gravis to find out how to fight an autoimmune disease naturally without drugs;
