Natural Cure
A Guide To Create Your 'Natural Health' Kitchen
Wellcure
Add more natural foods to your and your family's daily diet with this step-by-step and easy guide.
Eating healthy requires stocking your kitchen with the right supplies. In this article, we tell you a few items that you might be using but you should replace them to make your kitchen compliant to ‘Natural Health’. We will not discuss here why an item is unhealthy, because we have already spoken about it in other blogs (Read Natural Foods blog to know more). Here, we discuss only the actionable for replacement. This is not an exhaustive list, but a great starting point. Here we go..

Feeling overwhelmed? Do you feel this is not practical? Let us help you with a few pointers on how to activate the replacement chart:
- Slow and steady wins the race. Don’t try to transform your kitchen overnight. Pick one or few items at a time, implement, practice for a few days, get comfortable, and move on to the next or next few.
- Start with easy actions. The easiest one according to us is salt. If you replace it with Himalayan pink salt, there will be no or minimal change in the taste of your food.
- Enjoy the journey. Every single accomplishment needs a pat on the back. Come and share with us through the ‘comments’ section below.
- Seek support. Need ideas? Need encouragement? Don’t hesitate to ask in the ‘comments’ section below or raise a query in Q&A. Our natural health enthusiasts will be happy to support you.
- Be innovative. Try out healthy recipes from Wellcure. From nut milks to snacks to nongrain options, we’ve got you covered!!
- Just as health is wealth, knowledge is wealth too. Equip yourself with knowledge about Natural Laws through our blogs. Once you ‘know’, you ‘will’ do it J.
- Follow a back to basics approach, home-cooked foods to be preferred over packaged ones. Packaged foods give convenience, but are laden with artificial elements. They interfere in your body’s functions and can cause toxin accumulation over a period of time. As per the philosophy of Nature Cure, toxaemia is the underlying cause of all illnesses & diseases.
- Don’t worry that ‘oh I cannot eat this, I cannot eat that’. Focus on what you have to add to your plate, the deletions will automatically happen.
- Eat your favorite foods, sometimes the way you already eat them and sometimes in their healthy version. Soon you will realize you enjoy the healthy version more!!
- Know the source of your kitchen supplies, know the vendor - even for the healthy replacements we mentioned in our chart. Follow the golden rule that as much as an item is close to its natural state of being, the less processed it is, and the healthier it will be for you and your family.
We would love to hear any other replacements that you may have tried and worked for you. Do share in ‘comments’ below.

In India maple and agave are imported . So best is to use sweeteners in this order
Dates / raisins / figs
Dates syrup / soaked dates paste / soaked raisin paste
Organic jaggery only if you cannot use dates based sweetening.

Honey may be natural but it is for bees. It is the food for baby bees. Use pure agave syrup or maple syrup instead.
