Ancient Knowledge of your Body

By George Csapo

If you are tired of being on a diet all the time, if you have had enough of dietary supplements and “magic potions”, or if you feel that you are constantly searching for the lifestyle you were meant to follow, but you cannot achieve more than temporary successes... then this book is for you!

There is one thing you have not taken into consideration yet: you are a special living being who has been equipped with a host of useful and viable features thanks to millions of years of evolution.

In nature, we had to rely on ourselves, and our body knew the solution for every situation. The problem is that we became estranged from ourselves, from our true nature, which causes civilisational problems on both physical and psychological levels.

This book is about how we can utilise the ancient knowledge of our body to return to our harmonious state, purely through natural methods. We can do this with the help of proper nutrition, exercise and the appropriate environmental conditions.

“I have tried every slimming diet, but I couldn’t escape the ‘yo-yo effect’. Ever since I started following the AKB Way as a lifestyle, I have managed to keep losing weight but without starving, while my acute enteritis has also disappeared completely. I wish you all the best and a great success! :-)” Andrea H., Budapest

“I am undergoing treatment with dialysis because of a serious renal problem. I had only been following the suggested lifestyle for three weeks when the chief physician saw my lab results and asked me if I could share what I eat and how, as he would like to suggest it to other patients. Alongside the fact that I had already stopped taking two medications (antihypertensive and diuretic) over 3 weeks, this convinced me completely… Transplantation became a more distant option for me, and I am very grateful for that!” László M., Üröm

“I do sports actively, and I gave myself one month to try this lifestyle. My performance improved significantly – quite understandably – and my sense of wellbeing and energies became enhanced too. I stopped taking expensive dietary supplements, which gave me a great sense of freedom.” Balázs K., Budapest

“With the help of the new diet, my bodyweight has returned to normal. I sleep more soundly, I wake up in the morning energised and I don’t get tired or lethargic during the day either.” Róbert P., Piliscsaba

Foreword

I have been interested in the topic of healthy living ever since I was a child. To be exact, it all began when my father started working in natural medicine (as a chiropractor and nutritionist). Since then, healthy diets and trying to eat as healthily as possible has been an organic part of my family’s life. I was still in primary school when I started spending most of my free time browsing the books on natural medicine on my father’s bookshelf, my favorites being the ones on various diets and eating. By changing his diet entirely my father successfully cured his hay fever and he could finally stop using the nose drops that he had had to constantly rely on to be able to breathe and therefore sleep at night for 11 years. For my grandmother, natural methods solved two big health problems in her life. First of all, she was able to cure the persistent leg ulcer that she had had for years with the help of herbs, and secondly, her eyesight improved. She used to wear prescription glasses of several dioptres and she developed a cataract. The hospital was going to operate on her eye, but after practising some simple eye exercises for a few months she was able to read without glasses again, and to the astonishment of the doctors her cataract actually disappeared without an operation.

I fasted with my father several times and, surprisingly, I had much more energy after 2–3 days of fasting than I had before, and I experienced some very positive changes. We tried many things, and after a while I started to develop an interesting theory based on the substantial experience and knowledge we gained through these episodes.

I noticed that every effective technique and healing method tries to heal the patient through being natural, only with different approaches. But if the key is being natural, then why couldn’t we simply make that single idea the method itself when it comes to the health of the entire body? And explain all the diseases and physical anomalies by looking at how civilization has changed our ancient lifestyle.

My life had different things in store for me and I became an economist, working for multinational companies. As the years passed by, I felt more and more that this was not my path, so I spent a lot of time learning about healthy eating alongside having a full-time job and giving advice to my friends who had health problems about how they could improve their health. Fortunately, my advice worked beyond even my own expectations, so they started referring their friends with health problems to me to see if I could help them too.

I gained a lot of positive experiences through the improvement of people suffering from various diseases, and I realised that the system, every single element of which is based on simplicity and ancient naturalness, is incredibly effective. I started perfecting my theory with the help of all the people who turned to me for help.

Later, I was offered a position at a company producing and distributing organic food, where I started to work as a manager. I learned a lot of new things there and I gained insight into this industry, not only as a consumer, but from the perspective of the producer and trader.

During this time I gained a lot of useful experience, while also continuously helping those who came to me for advice. A counselling session takes about 3–4 hours, so I didn’t have enough time to help everyone while also having a family and a full-time job. That is how the need arose for me to write a book in which I can share the most important principles of my method and the attitude that is represented by this lifestyle.

Note that I am neither a doctor, nor a nutritionist, and my method is solely based on the positive feedback of the people I have helped, my own experiences and existing literature. The name of my system (Ancient Knowledge of your Body) also refers to the fact that you don’t have to wait for a miracle or rely on some expensive magic pills – the solution is much simpler than that. The most harmonious way to achieve our inherent physical and psychological health is through natural living.

And that is what this book is all about!

Introduction

We humans are an organic part of nature, just like any other organism. This is hard to deny, as we are the result of a natural evolution process over the course of millions of years, shaped by the prevailing natural conditions. And so our ideal environment is the natural environment. All our sensory organs, our instincts, our reflexes, our organs and their reactions work properly when they are in alignment with the physical environment of the Earth.

In space, for example, where there is no gravity, our bones will start losing density, our muscles will start to waste away, and we will experience negative processes happening to our blood circulation as well. The blood vessels in our neck expand, the kidneys start working more intensely due to changes in the blood flow, calcium excretion speeds up, etc. Our body will slowly but steadily go to waste in space, and the special exercises astronauts have to do and the special suits they have to wear while aboard the space station are designed to hinder this process.But we don’t have to go into outer space to experience negative changes in our body. It is enough to deal with the damaging effects of civilization on Earth. By decreasing the time spent in nature, we expose ourselves to serious health risks. Our body is a perfectly tuned, but adaptive machine that functions best when it is used in the environment and for the purpose it was designed for.

Even the most modern sports car will break down if water gets into the engine, because it was not designed to be used underwater. The human body is a self-healing system that is capable of maintaining its ideal conditions, has an amazing ability to grow and change – so far unknown to us in its full extent – and works the most harmoniously in the environment in which it has evolved. What’s more, we should feed it with the correct fuel we have eaten as we have evolved, in the form in which it is available in nature.

The most important link between the body and its surroundings has to be food. In the form of food, our surroundings actually enter the body and become part of it. Vitamins are undoubtedly considered one of the most important factors in the coordination of this link. I am convinced that if we place our body back into its original environment in which it has evolved, it would function just as perfectly as the body of other organisms. Disease is an expression of the disharmony between the body and its surroundings.

Albert Szent-Györgyi (1893–1986)

/Nobel laureate Hungarian biochemist and doctor/

Moreover, our body also needs the external, environmental influences that we might not even think about and which might seem to be a bit extreme, but which are an organic part of nature. More on this later.

The purpose of the lifestyle described in this book is to return to the ancient zone of wellbeing in which our body evolved, and in which it can be the healthiest. This most natural lifestyle has three building blocks: nutrition, exercise and other physical influences or external conditions. We don’t need synthetic powders, various
