Review of 33 Golden Rules of Health
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "33 Golden Rules of Health" by Freddy Mundia Maiba.]
In today's busy world, staying healthy can be a tough task. In such a scenario, Freddy Mundia Maiba's book, 33 Golden Rules of Health, offers easy-to-follow advice that mixes old wisdom with new science. I liked the way the book begins with a heartfelt dedication to Maiba's daughter Angela, who passed away too soon. Her death inspired Maiba to focus deeply on health and wellness. This personal loss gives the book a serious and sincere tone. Maiba's journey from grief to a strong sense of purpose is touching and inspiring, creating a powerful emotional basis for his advice.
The book is divided into key sections, each covering different parts of health. The introduction, wherein Maiba compares humans to machines without spare parts, stresses the importance of taking care of our health before problems arise and encourages readers to rethink how they approach health and wellness.
But the heart of the book is the set of '33 golden rules' that give the book its name. Each of these rules gives us a different way to think about staying healthy and covers lots of important health topics, like eating right, staying active, keeping our minds healthy, and using natural treatments. I have a lot of favorites among these 33 rules.
All of these '33 golden rules' by Maiba accentuate the significance of maintaining health through a combination of essential lifestyle practices. For instance, he says that drinking at least 8 glasses of clean water daily is crucial for hydration, toxin removal, and supporting bodily functions. Also, as suggested by the author, we should focus on consuming balanced meals rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins so that the body gets the necessary nutrients.
Then, just like we know but still many of us don’t follow, regular exercise, such as walking, running, or yoga, is essential. The author says that it keeps the body fit and the mind sharp. One of the rules is about adequate sleep, which should be at least about 7-9 hours per night, as it allows for rest and repair, preventing issues like weakened immunity and cognitive problems. Maiba also insists on managing stress through techniques like meditation, deep breathing, or hobbies. I believe these techniques are vital for mental and physical health, as chronic stress can have severe negative impacts, as the author also agrees.
Also, smoking, alcohol in excessive quantities, and any kind of illicit drug use are obviously harmful to health. However, many of us are victims of such habits, which is why the author, in one of his 33 rules, warns us about the severe impact it can have on our health. Furthermore, Maiba has also dedicated a rule to practicing safe sun exposure by using sunscreen and wearing protective clothing. This would certainly help in preventing skin damage and cancer. Maintaining good hygiene through regular handwashing, dental care, and showering to prevent infections is also discussed in the book.
In one of his other rules, the author also talked about being safe during sex, like using condoms and getting regular health check-ups, which are really important for avoiding infections and not having a baby when you don't want to. Also, it's good to not have too much caffeine to avoid feeling too worried or not being able to sleep. Plus, eating natural foods instead of processed ones is better for your overall health.
Each of these rules is elaborated extensively within the book, and what I have provided above is just a gist. The way the author has presented the information is truly praiseworthy. One thing worth mentioning is how throughout the book, Maiba frequently references Ellen G. White, a 19th-century health reformer whose teachings heavily influence his philosophy. I admired it.
The book ends well with the author's 'Do-It-Yourself-Health-Protocol,' which covers certain remedies that, though not scientifically proven, have been effective in treating common health problems over time. I liked how it explores concoctions extracted from fruits and vegetables, providing recipes for juices like green juice, carrot juice, and beetroot juice, as well as herbal concoctions like the miracle paste, all aimed at addressing inflammatory, digestive, circulatory, and respiratory health conditions. I found this to be a wonderful addition to the book.
Thus, considering my immense appreciation for the book, as reflected in the above-mentioned paragraphs, I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. Reading 33 Golden Rules of Health was quite an interesting and, at times, eye-opening experience. The part about natural remedies got me interested in trying new ways to feel better when I'm not well, which has made me think differently about how I take care of myself. I have nothing to dislike about the book. Also, one thing to note here is that though the book contains some Christian references, the core content of the book focuses on practical health advice and principles that can be universally applicable.
I would recommend this book to anyone who is committed to improving their health.
