12Nice, but, where do you get protein?
The problem is not how to get enough, its how
Not to get too much.
Protein is the most complex of all food element.
More energy is necessary to digest protein than
any other food. It will take 3 to 15 days to
digest meat.
13Protein is not built in the body By eating
protein.
Protein is built from the AMINO ACIDS in food.
14 There are 23 different AMINO ACIDS.
15 CAN BE PRODUCED BY THE BODY
8 must be derived from the food we eat.
15Foods that contains all 8 amino acids
- Carrots
- Bananas
- Brussels sprouts
- Cabbage
- Cauliflower
- Corn
- Cucumber
- Eggplant
- Kale
- Okra
- Peas
- Potatoes
- Sweet potato
- Squash
- Tomatoes
- Sunflower seeds
- Sesame seeds
- All nuts
16The body recycles 70 of its protein waste

- Protein a day

- protein a month

of blood to these organs and thus improve their
function. Yoga poses are sometimes called inner
sizes because of their beneficial effects on all
the bodys internal organs. But because of this
highly specific and profound inner effect, asanas
should never be practiced from books but always
under the guidance of a trained teacher.

breathe diaphragmatically to ventilate the lower
lungs, and squeeze out all the stagnant air. That
helps to absorbs more oxygen and vital energy
with less effort and make us more r e l a x e d
62Yoga poses benefit 5 Relaxation
Even in a few minutes of deep relaxation there is
a rapid fall in blood pressure and heart rate.
Muscular tension drops even below the level of
relaxation during sleep, and the overtaxed nerve
centers are revitalized. Fatigue vanishes and one
feels filled with radiant inner energy. This slow
and rhythmic breathing also dissolves emotional
tension and relaxes the mind.
