You Mean To Tell Me It Controls EVERYTHING!
What is the most important organ in your body? For those of you who said 'Heart', just be thankful your 8th grade biology teacher is not sitting next to you!

As we kick off this week’s post covering the 3rd ground rule of health, we need you to answer one question: what is the most important organ in your body?
For those of you who said your Heart, just be thankful your 8th grade biology teacher is not sitting next to you!
Although the heart is a vital organ and essential for health, the most important organ in your body is of course your brain, which along with your spinal cord make up your body’s most important organ system, your nervous system.

Which brings us to Ground Rule #3: Your nervous system is your MASTER system. Meaning that your nervous system controls and coordinates all, not some, ALL of your body’s functions. Unfortunately, our bodies, unlike many of today’s electronic devices, are not wireless. Therefore, in order for your heart to beat, for your lungs to breathe, for your stomach to digest food, a proper nerve supply is required.
Without a properly functioning nervous system, you stand no chance of being as healthy as you were designed to be (ground rule #1). The reason being is that the intelligence that exists in your body (ground rule #2) courses through your nervous system and is what keeps you healthy, healing and functioning day in and day out.
