What is my body telling me?

Our body is an efficient machine. There is a constant organised chaos and our organs communicate with each other. Glands excrete chemical messengers and hormones regulate temperature, oxygen concentration, sugar content and everything has to function correctly so that we can survive. Nothing happens within our body without a cause. Pain, restlessness, nightmares, sleeplessness, obesity are all signals from our body. They give us important pointers, which we should not overlook. Listening to your body and understanding your symptoms is a start to a healthy lifestyle.
