3. In many parts of the Native Hawaiian community,
there is great poverty from a material perspective. But
the people there are also blessed with a great wealth
from a spiritual and cultural perspective. The
material poverty sets the stage for poor health. If
nurtured properly, spiritual and cultural strength
may set the stage for the recovery of good health if
applied properly.

5. During the course of this program, you will focus
upon the positive aspects of health and weight
control. This means you will not be worried about
deprivation, and you won't be focusing upon all the
things you should not do.
You will be focused on foods that satisfy your
hunger: foods which you can obtain in your local
supermarket, simple foods which you can continue
eating and enjoying for the rest of your life.
And, thus, the same basic diet-and-lifestyle
principles apply to us all.

diabetes fell an average of 38%, from an average of

including one who got off 90 units of insulin.

person's blood pressure medication when his blood

reducing the blood pressure medication of two other
people.
