YOU TOO, CAN REBUILD YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME!
Just like a car engine which has been using the wrong fuel, a human body which has been using dead fuel for a period of time begins to "die". Death of the body begins when the white lymphocytes or white blood cells of the body can not get rid of the toxic waste materials left behind from the use of dead fuel. When too many cells die, the whole body dies.
Fortunately, the body has the ability to replace every single cell with a brand new copy of itself every year or so. Due to the continuous cell renewal effort of the body, we can recover from disease and improve the quality of the body - provided we are using the correct fuel and not adding too many toxic substances into the environment of the living cells. You can prevent illness from bacteria and degenerative diseases and rid yourself of illness simply by changing the kind of fuel you consume. Rebuilding healthy cells requires the following SIX conditions:
1) POSITIVE SPIRITUAL ENVIRONMENT
Cells have feelings too. A cell is a living organism which communicates with all other cells. It can be demonstrated that individual cells become upset or depressed by your spiritual mood or by upsetting events in the environment around them. When cells are upset or depressed they don't do their jobs well.
2) LIVING FUEL
Living fuel means organic fuel. Cells need to be fed live food which contain unheated or processed enzymes. The food must be free of toxic substances such as pesticides, preservatives and irradiation. In order for cells to create protein to build your body they need all 22 amino acids. They need all the vitamins and all the trace minerals available in raw fruits and vegetables, and ocean vegetables such as kelp and dulce. They also need essential oils found in live food oils (nuts, olives, seeds, etc.).
3) TOXIN-FREE WATER
The body is more than 70% water. Coincidentally, raw fruits and vegatables are also composed of 70% water. All of the cells of the body need clean water. The water must be free from contaminates such as the poisonous chemicals put in the municipal water systems of about one-half of US cities: chlorine and fluoride. Both of these chemicals actually cause cancer. Drink only distilled water from glass containers. Plastic containers may cause a toxic chemical reaction with the water, especially when exposed to sunlight.
4) OXYGEN
Mixing heat with oxygen and fuel causes combustion, which produces energy. We use exercise to get oxygen into the body and get the oxygen to circulate through the blood so that it can carry nutrition to the cells. This requires three types of exercise: aerobic (oxygenating) exercise, strength exercises and lymphatic stimulation.
Walking, running, stretching, deep breathing exercises and nearly every active sport get more oxygen into the body.
5) CIRCULATION TO CARRY NUTRIENTS IN THE BLOOD TO ALL PARTS OF THE BODY
Living fuel and oxygen provide the energy for the cells. This energy is used to build new cells and to clean the body of toxins such as dead fuel, waste, toxic chemicals, viruses and radiation. For the fuel and oxygen to get to the cells, they must be carried throughout the entire body by the blood. Physical activity gets the blood moving throughout the body.
Research indicates that using a "rebounder" supplies all of the needs for exercise without detrimental side effects. Rebound exercise accomplishes the following:
The byproduct of burning fuel is waste material, like smoke and ash. Often the fuel itself IS waste material as far as the engine in concerned. For example, would you put sugar in the gas tank of your car? Would you pour grease and toxic sludge into your gas tank? You don't because the engine treats it as waste. It won't burn and so must be eliminated. Too much waste clogs up the engine and it stops running. This principle extends to food as well. Eating dead food forces your body to work hard to push the waste out. This processs takes a tremendous amount your energy, and leaves you feeling sluggish.
Human bodies treat dead, toxic fuel, like cooked meat, as waste.
THE LIVE FOOD DIET AND LIFESTYLE
The Live Food Diet is not a "diet" in the traditional sense. It is really a lifestyle change which is a program of nutrition, exercise and detoxification through colon cleansing. The "diet" was developed by Dr. George Malkmus as a means to rid himself of colon cancer. The program not only rid Dr. Malkmus of a cancer tumor the size of a baseball in his colon, but handled many other unwanted symptoms too. Since 1976 nearly a million people have started to follow the Live Food Diet created by Dr. Malkmus. Tens of thousands of people have provided testimonials stating that they have been relieved of nearly every conceivable unwanted body condition, not the least of which are cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and arthritis.
The program is simple. Consume only raw, organic, uncooked fruits and vegetables AND freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices, especially carrot juice. Get daily exercise, fresh air and sunshine, and drink only distilled water. Try it for 21 days and see for yourself the difference that living fuel makes in your engine!
BUT, IT TASTES SO GOOD...
There are some of us who can have some difficulty stopping our old habits of eating dead "junk" food. These old habits are based on learned behavior and agreements we've been taught since we were little kids. For example, we were taught by our parents and teachers to "eat your meat and drink your milk so you'll grow up to be big and strong". We were taught that "Wonderbread" builds strong bodies 12 ways!"
Factually, The Meat Industry, The Dairy Industry, The Poultry Industry, and the Baked Goods Industry have bought and paid for most of the "nutritional" training in our public school systems for the past 70 years or more. We were taught about the "4 Basic Food Groups" -- of course, THREE of those groups were products represented by those commercial vested interests.
Most of our "nutritional" education has come from very expensive television and magazine advertisements that teach you to want to eat the charred flesh of a dead cow smoldering on a white flour bun which has had every speck of life and nutritional value ground and bleached out of it which will cause your cells to mutate into cancerous tumors which will eat your body alive until you die in excruciating pain! Now we're supposed to follow this up with potatoes that have been frozen to death and then boiled alive in scalding, rancid oil which will make your veins clog up with sludge and cause you to die of an agonizingly painful heart attack! The final touch is a glass of carbonated tap water filled with toxic chlorine and fluorine gas which has been mixed with 11 teaspoons or more of dead, nutrition-free, refined white sugar and artificial flavoring. Now, they tell us with a happy, smiling clown face that we're supposed to believe that this is a "balanced diet" and that it TASTES GOOD!! (John Robbins, "Diet For A New America" Video)
If you're looking for somebody to blame for all this "nutritional" nonsense, try looking in the bathroom mirror first. In the immortal words of W.C. Fields, "there's a sucker born every minute".
It's time we stop believing the sales pitch of the muti-billion dollar a year commercial vested interests and start taking control of our own minds! That means taking control of our own eating choices, our own bodies and our own lives! The more healthy your body becomes, the more you will find joy in the delightful flavor and fragrance of "living foods".
PROTEIN: Fact & Fiction
"Never have so many been so confused over a subject about which they know so little."
The word "protein" is derived from the Greek language and means "of primary importance". Amino Acids, the component parts of protein, are the biochemical basis for life and are required by every cell. The immune system�s antibodies are protein. Endrocine hormones are protein. The cement that holds our cells together is made of protein.
STRENGTH AND STAMINA: THE GREAT MEAT MYTH
What do the following World Champion athletes all have in common, besides strength and endurance? They must be big meat eaters, right?
Henry Aaron � All Time Baseball Home Run Champion
Dave Scott - 6-time winner of the Ironman Triathlon (the only
man to win it more than twice!)
Sixto Linares - World Record holder in the 24-hour Triathlon
Paavo Nurmi - 20 World Records and 9 Olympic Medals in distance
running
Stan Price - World Record holder in the Bench Press
Andreas Cahling - Mr. International Body Building Champion
Roy Hilligan - Mr. America Body Building Champion
Ridgely Abele - 8-Time National Champion in Karate
All of these athletes are VEGETARIANS! There are many, many more top athletes who have discovered that eating meat decreases strength and stamina.
The strongest animals on Earth are also vegetarians: Elephants, oxen, horses, mules, camels, water buffalo, etc. The Silverback Gorilla is 3-times the size of a man and is 30-times stronger! A Silverback Gorilla is so strong it could throw a 200-pound man across the street like a Frizbee! What does a gorilla eat? Raw fruit and vegetables.
John Robbins, in his book, Diet for a New America, reports that "...study after study has found that protein combustion is no higher during exercise than under resting conditions."
The Journal of the American Medical Association in 1978 warns athletes (and non-athletes) against taking protein supplements, stating "Athletes need the same amount of protein foods as non-athletes. Protein does not increase strength. Indeed, it often takes greater energy to digest and metabolize the excess protein."
PROTEIN AND HEALTH
It has been known for decades that populations consuming high-protein, meat-based diets have higher cancer rates and lower life-spans (averaging as low as 30 to 40 years), compared to cultures subsisting on low-protein vegetarian diets. Some of these have lifespans of more than 90 years.
Dr. Alexander Leaf published the findings of his research about the oldest people in the world in the January, 1973 edition of National Geographic Magazine. He found that the three most consistently disease-free and long-lived people on Earth are the Abkhazians of Russia, the Vilacabambans of Ecuador and the Hunzukuts of Pakistan. None of these peoples suffer from Western diseases: NO obesity, NO cancer, NO heart disease! On the average these people live to be over 100 years old. The men are physically active and still fathering children at 100 years of age.
The diet of all of these people consists of 70-80 percent high-water-content foods such as raw, uncooked fruits and vegetables. These people eat very little or no animal products.
Meat protein is the most difficult food for the body to digest. The average time for food (other than fruit) to pass through the entire gastrointestinal tract is between 25 and 30 hours. When meat is eaten, that time is more than doubled!
Research published in the New England Journal of Medicine, in September, 1982 states, "undigested protein must be eliminated by the kidneys. This unnecessary work stresses out the kidneys so much that gradually lesions are developed and tissues begin to harden."
In the colon, this excess protein waste putrefies into toxic substances, some of which are absorbed in the bloodstream. The University of Illinois Medical School reports that "A high protein diet also breaks down the pancreas and lowers resistance to cancer as well as contributes to the development of diabetes."
HOW MUCH PROTEIN IS "ENOUGH"
Human mother�s milk contains no more than
5% protein. This is enough protein to enable an infant to double it�s weight
and size during the first 6 months of life!
After that, the need for protein DECREASES. Independent researchers
around the world agree that the human need for protein each day is only
25 - 35 GRAMS. (about 1 ounce). Many nutritionists feel that only 20 grams a day
are more than enough. Meanwhile, the AVERAGE AMERICAN eats more than 150
GRAMS of protein a day - 5 times the actual need!
Reports in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition say that people
do not need to consume more than 2.5% of their daily calorie intake from
protein. Even the
World Health Organization says people need more than 4.5% calories
from protein.
So how many calories are provided from protein in common raw fruits and vegetables?
SPINACH = 49%
BROCCOLI = 45%
CAULIFLOWER = 40%
LETTUCE = 34%
PEAS = 30%
GREEN BEANS = 26%
CUCUMBERS = 24%
CELERY = 21%
POTATOES = 11%
SWEET POTATOES = 6%
HONEYDEW MELON = 10%
CANTALOUPE = 9%
STRAWBERRIES = 8%
ORANGES = 8%
WATERMELON = 8%
PEACHES = 6%
BANANAS = 5%
PEARS = 5%
