The
Incredible Healing Powers of Organically Grown Raw (Living) Foods and Juices
The fastest way to restore wellness is to stop putting into the body
the things that have caused the physical problem to develop in the first
place, and then give the body the nutrients it needs to repair and rebuild
itself. The body is self-healing when the infraction is stopped and proper
nutrients provided.
Let
Thy Food Be Thy Medicine And Thy Medicine Be Thy Food --
Hippocrates,
Father of Medicine 460-377 BC
Why Raw Food Diet?
Because from thirty to eighty-five percent of
the nutrition in foods is destroyed in cooking. That is an average fifty
percent loss! Fresh, raw foods contain the highest level of enzymes. Enzymes
are the catalyst for the hundreds of thousands of chemical reactions that
occur throughout the body. Cooked foods and dry convenient diets have been
denatured and are devoid of enzymes- life-promoting elements. While they
may maintain life they do not promote optimum health or longevity!
Malnutrition is the basis of all disease:
"Man's body is a living organism, made of living cells, which require living
food in order to be properly nourished and function well. When we put cooked
food into our body, loaded with contaminants, the body starts to break
down. It begins in the very young with colic, rashes, colds, earaches,
upset stomachs, swollen glands and tonsils. As the child grows older, their
may be tooth decay, pimples, the need for eye glasses, etc. Then as we
enter adult life there is arthritis, hypoglycemia, heart attacks, strokes,
diabetes and cancers. All this and a multitude of other diseases are unnecessary
and are nothing but the result of improper diet and lifestyle! Today,
most people accept cooked food as the normal means of supplying the body
with nutrients, not realizing that the living cells of our bodies do not
take nourishment from the dead and artificial ingredients found in cooked
food. And so, after a typical meal of cooked meat, cooked potatoes, a cooked
vegetable and a piece of cooked bread, followed by a cooked sugar desert,
their stomach is full and they think they have satisfied the nutritional
needs of their body. In reality, they have given their body practically
no nourishment. And thus with a full stomach, they are slowly starving
their body's cells." Raw

The relationship
between unhealthy eating and the development of disease is undeniable.
When most people get a cancer diagnosis their doctors are quick to prescribe
drugs and harsh treatments such as radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery.
All of these treatments have a harrowing effect on the body opening it
up to a whole host of other problems.
Holistic health practitioners,
on the other hand, will often recommend detoxification
methods such as cleansing to eliminate cancer from the body. Here Allison
Biggar interviews European journalist and ovarian cancer survivor Evita
Ramparte about how she cured her cancer naturally
without chemotherapy, surgery or radiation.
Shirley (author of this website)
also overcame a lifetime of ill health without chemo, radiation and surgery
and lost 60 lbs in 3 months effortlessly. Learn how...

There are two kinds of starvation:One
starvation comes about because of no food at all. The second and most insidious
starvation is progressive malnutrition over a period of time. The people
in the third world don't have enough volume of food. In the first world
there is plenty of "food" but it's empty food. The food we eat produces
plenty of calories and energy but is almost completely devoid of nutrition
which is vital to our survival. A good diet promotes good health and prevents
the onset of disease. Most human illnesses and diseases are due
to a deficiency of vital nutrients. When you supply your body with the
proper nutrients, in a form that your body can use, it knows how to repair
itself.

"The body has the inherent ability -the vitality -not only to heal itself
and restore health, but also to ward off disease. Illness is not
caused simply by an invasion of external agents or germs, but is a manifestation
of the organism's attempt to defend and heal itself. Prevention Is the
Best Cure. Health is a reflection of how we choose to live." TC
Fry |
"True good health is more than just the absence of disease;
it is a state where you enjoy all the energy, vitality and benefits life
has to offer. One of the keys to achieving good health is to use the power
of healthy foods to positively affect how you feel, how much energy you
have, and the length and quality of your life. There is clear and definitive
scientific evidence that proper nutrition plays an important and significant
role in reducing the risk of degenerative diseases, and in providing long-term
health and longevity." George

Raw
Food Vs The Cooked, American Diet - The Great American Rat Experiment
Excerped from the book Goldat,
by Lewis E. Cook, Jr. & Junkp Yasui“It has been found that a group of rats were fed diet of raw vegetables,
fruits, nuts and whole grains from birth grew into completely healthy specimens
and never suffered from any disease. They were never ill. They grew rapidly,
but never became fat, mated with enthusiasm and had 
healthy
offspring. They were always gently affectionate and playful and lived in
perfect harmony with each other. Upon reaching an old age, equivalent to
80 years in humans, these rats were put to death and autopsied. At that
advanced age their organs, glands, tissues all body processes appeared
to be in perfect condition without any sign of aging or deterioration.
“A companion group of rats we fed a diet comparable to that of the average
American and included white bread, cooked foods, meats, milk, salt, soft
drinks, candies, cakes, vitamins and other supplements, medicines for their
ails, etc. During their lifetime these rats became fat and, from the earliest
age, contracted most of the diseases of modern American society including
colds, fever, pneumonia, poor vision, cataracts, heart disease, arthritis,
cancer and many more.
“Most of this group died prematurely at early ages but during their
lifetime most of them were vicious, snarling beasts, fighting with one
another stealing one another’s food and attempting to kill each other.
They had to be kept apart to prevent total destruction of the entire group.
Their offspring were all sick and exhibited the same general characteristics
as there parents.
“As this group of rats died one by one or in epidemics or various diseases,
autopsies were performed revealing extensive degenerative conditions in
every part of their bodies. All organs, glands and tissues were affected,
as were the skin, hair, blood and nervous system. They were all truly total
physical and nervous wrecks. The same condition existed in the few, which
survived full duration of the experiment.
“A third companion group of rats was fed the same diet as the second
group to an age equivalent to about 40 years in humans. They displayed
the same general symptoms of the second group – being sick and vicious
so that they had to be separated to prevent them from killing each other
and stealing one another food.
“At the end of this initial period all rats in this group were placed
on a strict fast, with o water to drink for a period of several days. Then
they received the natural (raw) diet o first group of rats. This diet was
alternated with periods of fast and within one mouth behavioral pattern
had changed completely so that the now docile, affectionate, playful creatures
were once again able to live together in a harmonious society and from
this point on never suffered any illness.
“Several rates put to death and autopsied at the end of the initial
period revealing the same general deterioration as that exhibited in the
second group of rats. However, the remaining rats lived out the full duration
of the experiment, to the equivalent of 80 years in humans, and when they
were topside there were no signs of aging or deterioration or disease -
just as those in the first group. The obvious disease, degeneration and
deterioration of body parts evident in their first half of life had been
completely reversed and excellent health restored.
“The same principles apply to human life as there is only one TRUTH!
Thus it may be concluded that sick people may be restored to health simply
by choosing the proper diet, fasting observing the other rules of health.
There is no mystery. There is no external force that will help – all healing
being accomplished within the body in accordance with the laws of organic
life and health.”

A growing number of veterinarians state that processed pet food is the
main cause of illness and premature death in the modern dog and cat. In
December 1995, the British Journal of Small Animal Practice published a
paper contending that processed pet food supresses the immune system and
leads to liver, kidney, heart and other diseases. This research, initially

Greens: A Live-Food Approach for Children of All Ages"We began transitioning our
children to a raw food diet over a year ago as an experiment to alleviate
the symptoms of ADD my eight year old son was experiencing. I'm happy to
say that the experiment was astonishingly successful! We have been delighted
at the changes in my son's behavior and capabilities, which occurred almost
immediately. His moodiness, irritability and inability to concentrate were
gone. His mental processes cleared, his memory improved and so did his
performance in school. There are many things that come up as you change
your child's diet; the special nutritional needs of children, social gatherings,
disapproving relatives, school functions and sack lunches, your own selfdoubts,
children who don't want to try new foods, and the attitude of other family
members, just to name a few. When my son's story was published in Living
Nutrition Magazine with the title Triumph over Attention Deficient Disorder
Kyle Stoycoff's Story, I began getting inquiries from other 
parents
eager to change their children's diets and needing advice and guidance.
Raw Kids is my attempt to fill this need. I hope our experience can help
pave the way for those wishing to improve their children's diets and quality
of life. "

Generational Consequences of Nutritional Deficiency - Dr. Price traveled
to the far corners of the world to find the most primitive cultures on

the health and APPEARANCE of the natives of whatever culture nourished
on their traditional diet and those whose diets had been disrupted and
"displaced" by the "white diet"...a diet high in refined foods like white
sugar, bleached white flour, polished rice, and synthetic fats. He also
carefully laid out the guidelines for a natural unrefined diet that would
be suitable for modern Americans. Too bad all that careful research and
excellent advice has been ignored. Today's SAD

The
important role of enzymes to achieve/maintain optimum health
Dr. Jerry Tennant, MD
- "The marine phytoplankton are Nature's gift
to assist us on our journey to optimal health and wellness through balanced
nutrition.. While transient sub-optimal nutrition may be forgiven, a constant
diet lacking in micronutrients will adversely affect every function, structure,
and detoxification functions of the human cell. Good nutrition will enhance
the structure and function of all organs in our bodies. Our brains, muscles,
hearts, arteries, joints, bones, skin, hair, hormones, immune system, vision,
digestion, kidneys, liver will carry out their jobs much better. Metabolically,
our lipids, and sugars can be optimized, thus providing more overall energy,
minimize weight problems, and improve sleep. These
nutrients improve mental function, and memory. They reduce depression,
harmful effects of stress, and mood swings." Dr. Tennant says that
marine phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to sustain life
and to restore health by providing the raw
materials to make new cells that function normally. Marine phytoplankton
has been called "the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet", containing
a wide range of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll,
enzymes and cellular materials, in a raw juice
form which is absorbed on a cellular level to promote and maintain
optimum health. Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the
genetic mutations that can lead to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides
and adaptogens increase energy and stamina by improving our ability to
consume and use oxygen. Adaptogens also improve cardiovascular health by
strengthening the heart and circulation. Learn more

How
Cooked is Too Cooked
Nancy Appleton, Ph.D.
There
is enough evidence to show that the more food is cooked, the more difficult
it is to digest and metabolize. The higher the temperature that food is
cooked, the longer it stays in the gut. This makes it more difficult for
the food to absorb and work on a cellular level where it needs to work.
When the food cannot work at the cellular level, the cells can become deficient
and/or toxic. This leads to deficiency and toxicity of the whole body making
the body less able to function optimally. All food deteriorates during
commercial food processing and during storage. Three different things happen
to food that is overcooked or over-processed:
1.
Destruction of essential amino acids.
2. Decrease in digestibility.
3. Production of anti-nutritional and toxic compounds.
It is the liver's job to detoxify toxins, but
the liver can become overloaded and unable to do its job. In the bloodstream,
the undigested or partially digested food (in the form of macromolecules)
is in too large a particle to get into the cell to function. Undigested
or partially digested food moves through the bloodstream causing havoc
in the body.
When food is heated past the heat-labile point, its chemical configuration
changes. Pasteurization, deep-frying, and barbecuing are all forms of cooking
where food is heated past the heat labile point. The body does not understand
these new chemical configurations and does not have the enzymes to digest
the food easily. more
Food
is the single most important factor in achieving and maintaing good health.
When it comes to good nutrition the key, as in all natural living, is simplicity.
"Living foods, such as fruits and vegetables, eaten in their natural state,
raw, or only slightly cooked, is best to get all the nutrients they have
to offer. By cooking our foods, vegetables and fruits, we lose 85% of the
nutrients they provide. All enzymes are killed and amino acids are either
destroyed or changed into indegestible components.

The
Raw Milk Group: helping people discover the benefits, locate sources
and promote the use of raw milk.
Many diseases that exist today were rarely even heard of before the
1920's when most Americans used raw milk and when raw milk was readily
available nationwide. If all mankind used raw milk, from the days of Adam
and Eve up to the early 1900's, yet they lived long lives while enduring
the harshest of weather and living conditions, it would seem to imply that
raw milk is highly beneficial to our bodies. The
raw goat milk group is an Internet forum that was created to bring
raw goat milk suppliers, raw milk seekers, dairy farmers, raw food enthusiasts
and those who want to learn more about the health benefits of raw goat
milk all together in one convenient place.
“The raw milk underground is one of the most contentious battlefields
in the revolution to reclaim our food from industrialization, over-processing,
and corporate control. In The
Raw Milk Revolution, David Gumpert investigates in great detail the
health claims of both raw milk advocates and public health officials, as
well the legal tactics being employed by government agencies to stop the
growing movement to obtain and supply raw milk. His comprehensive analysis
effectively deconstructs and illuminates the many complex issues of health,
safety, and freedom that are raised by this debate.”--Sandor

a broad range of subjects starting with digestion, elimination, co-enzymes,
how to obtain more enzymes in your diet and through supplementation. He
has a 5-step program of do's and don'ts, including

OTC drugs and prescription drugs, as well as foods that contain enzyme
inhibitors. Enzymes--living substances that regulate health--work with
certain minerals in our bodies to form an antioxidant system that fights
corrosive free radicals. Dr. Cichoke explains how to make the most of this
amazing natural partnership to speed recovery from injury and lessen the
effects of back pain, multiple sclerosis, viruses, and fatigue
Enzymes
are the Spark of Life
Enzymes are delicate dynamos. Delicate because they are destroyed by
temperatures over 118 degrees (some by as little as 105 degrees), which
means that they may not survive even light steaming. Dynamos because they
are powerful biochemical catalysts; they speed burning or building reactions
in the body according to need. They are specialized proteins, often with
long complicated names ending in -ase. more...
Professor Jackson of the Department of Anatomy at the University of
Minnesota, has shown that rats fed for 135 days on an 80% cooked food diet
resulted in an increased pancreatic weight of 20 to 30%. What this means
is that the pancreas is forced to work harder with a cooked food diet.
"Although the body can manufacture enzymes, the more you use your enzyme
potential, the faster it is going to run out..." wrote Dr. Edward Howell,
who pioneered research in the benefits of food enzymes. A youth of 18 may
produce amylase levels 30times greater than those of an 85 year old person.
Listen
to Dr. James Chappell talk about The Importance of Enzymes.
Edward Howell, M.D. - "Enzymes
are the catalyst for the hundreds of thousands of chemical reactions that
occur throughout the body; they are essential for the digestion and absoption
of foods as well as for the production of cellular energy. Enzymes are
essential for most of the building and rebuilding that goes on constantly
in our bodies. Among the many thousands of species of creatures living
on this earth, only humans and some of their domesticated animals try to
live without enzymes. And only these transgressors of nature’s law are
penalized with defective health. It is not surprising that dogs (and cats)
have many human diseases since they are given only canned or packaged,
heat treated, enzyme free food" Dr.

Cooked
food passes through the digestive tract more slowly than raw food, tends
to ferment, and throws poisons back into the body. Colon cancer is second
only to lung cancer as a killer in America and is related, in various ways,
to eating enzyme-deficient cooked food. Prolonged intestinal toxemia may
manifest the following symptoms: Fatigue, nervousness, gasto-intestinal
discomfort, recurrent infections, skin eruptions, hormonal disturbances,
headaches, arthritis, sciatica, low back pain, allergies, asthma, eye,
ear, nose and throat disorders, cardiac irregularities, pathological changes
in the breasts, and so forth. All of these conditions have been shown to
respond to therapy directed to correcting the bowel toxemia. Of course,
it is important to have fiber in the diet to scrub the colon walls clean,
but even more important are the enzymes which will allow proper digestion
and assimilation of vital nutrients. Cooked food often passes into the
bloodstream as unsplit molecules that are deposited, as waste, in various
parts of the body. If it is a fat molecule we know it as cholesterol plaque;
if calcium, arthritis; if sugar, diabetes. White blood cell count rises
dramatically after ingesting a meal of canned or cooked foods ("digestive
leukocytosis"). Elevated WBCs are correlated to bacterial infection, inflammation
and depressed immunity. Raw foods do not produce this reaction. All
raw foods contain exactly the right enzymes required to split every last
molecule into the basic building blocks of metabolism: Amino acids (from
protein), glucose (from complex carbohydrates) and essential fatty acids
(from unsaturated vegetable fats).
Each of us receives a supply of enzymes at birth. The supply is NOT
limitless; it must supply the organism with life sustaining enzymes for
the duration of its existence. When the enzyme supply is exhausted, it
signals the breakdown of the organism (the dog). Enzymes
are needed to run all body systems. Metabolic enzymes are used by the heart,
lungs, kidneys, immune system, and for brain functions; digestive enzymes
convert protein, carbohydrates and fat into fuel to maintain the organism.
Over taxing the body to supply digestive enzymes can reduce the supply
of metabolic enzymes. Eventually, the body becomes enzyme-deficient making
it vulnerable to disease. Not suprisingly, glands and major organs suffer
most from enzyme deficiency. How can one prevent the body from depelting
its own supply of enzymes? Nature solved the problem for us by providing
those enzymes in RAW FOODS. Food enzymes begin the process of digestion
in the stomach. If there are no food enzymes, the body must produce additional
digestive enzymes resulting in fewer metabolic enzymes.
When we reason that cooking is harmful, then what do we eat? Salad?
Raw carrots ? That is difficult to do because we all love the taste of
food. Now the art of creating raw food that is highly flavored and temptingly
delicious is upon us! The new book, The Raw Gourmet, Simple Recipes for
Living Well, contain over 300 recipes that bring us the tastes we crave
and the raw

"Everyone has a doctor in
him or her; we just have to help it in its work. The natural healing force
within each one of us is the greatest force in getting well. Our food should
be our medicine. Our medicine should be our food. But to eat when you are
sick, is to feed your sickness." Hippocrates, Greek physician (460 BC -
377 BC)"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.
Disease proliferate only where there is not enough oxygen for cells
to be healthy. Raw foods contain an abundance of oxygen. In cooked foods,
oxygen is destroyed.
Joel
Fuhrman MD -"Following a strict vegetarian diet is not as important
as eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables. A vegetarian whose diet
is mainly refined grains, cold breakfast cereals, processed health-food-store
products, vegetarian fast foods, white rice, and pasta will be worse off
than a person who eats a little chicken or eggs, for example, but consumes
a larger amount of fruits, vegetables, and beans."

Fresh RAW Juice"We have found that many digestive systems are not functioning well
and the sicker the person, the more difficult it is to digest and assimilate 
the
nutrients in raw vegetables, because they contain the pulp or fiber. But
with the pulp or fiber removed, the nutrients can pass directly into the
blood stream and within minutes are feeding the cells and restoring the
immune system. I changed from a meat-centered, cooked and processed food
diet with plenty of sugar desserts, to an all-raw diet with lots of carrot
juice. I stayed on this total raw diet for approximately one year. I didn't
eat any cooked food during that year ... just raw fruits, raw vegetables
and one to two quarts a day of freshly extracted, raw carrot juice.
The results were spectacular! Almost immediately I started to get well!
In less than one year, my tumor had totally disappeared. It simply got
smaller and smaller until it was gone. But that was not all. In less than
one year, every physical problem I had been experiencing also disappeared!
Such physical problems as hemorrhoids, hypoglycemia, severe allergies and
sinus problems, high blood pressure, fatigue, pimples, colds, flu ... even
body odor and dandruff were gone! Totally healed! In the years that have
followed - and I am over 60 years old at this writing - I have not experienced
as much as a cold, sore throat, upset stomach, been to a doctor or taken
as much as an aspirin. It is so thrilling, at my age, to still be able
to play football, basketball and softball with the boys, jog five miles
with ease, and have more energy, endurance and stamina than I had when
I was 20 years old." Rev. George Malkmus
"It

of many cancer victims and conducted their funerals throughout my ministry.
And I had recently watched my own Mother die a slow, torturous death after
her colon cancer was treated with chemotherapy, radiation and surgery.
Refusing to subject my body to those same medical treatments that I felt
had helped kill my Mom, I sought an alternative. Fortunately, I had a preacher
friend in Texas by the name of Lestor Roloff who encouraged me to simply
change my diet and lifestyle and drink lots of freshly extracted carrot
juice! It sounded too simple, but, I took his advise... drastically and
overnight changed my diet and lifestyle and almost immediately started
to get well! Within one year, not only was my cancer gone, but so were

Green
juice is my lifeline
Most people who have explored the wondrously wide avenues of self-healing
have heard about wheatgrass. Wheatgrass juice has been proven over many
years to benefit people in numerous ways: cleansing the lymph system,
building the blood, restoring balance in the body, removing toxic metals
from the cells, nourishing the liver and kidneys and restoring vitality.
One ounce of wheatgrass juice has the vitamin and mineral equivalent of
2.2 pounds of fresh vegetables. It contains most of the vitamins and minerals
needed for human maintenance, including the elusive B12. Many of the benefits
of wheatgrass juice stem from the fact that it is a living food, which
is a complete protein with about 30 enzymes and is approximately 70% crude
chlorophyll.
To
detoxify
my blood and to maintain my excellent health and vitality I drink daily
6 to 8 ounces of freshly pressed mixture of wheatgrass,
parsley,
cilantro,
bitter-melon-vine/leaf,dandelion,
and other green leafy veggies. I mix in one tablespoon of bee
pollen. one ounce of fulvic minerals
, one ounce of marine phytoplankton, 2
ounces of Goji juice (rich
in glyconutrients)
and 1/4 teaspoon of shilajit. I
also drink Dr.
Miller's Detox Tea. I grow my own wheatgrass in flats by
my windows (view
instructions).
Wheatgrass played
a major role in my health recovery of severe lifelong illnesses. I use
the
Handcrank juicer (rust proof stainless steel) specifically designed
to get the maximum juice from leafy plants or grass. (most other juicers
shred the grass or leaf causing a huge mess and no juice.) Shirley

NOTE: I recently noticed
that ordinary Supermarkets, Trader Joes, and 7-Eleven stores are now selling
Superfood Green Juices which contains wheatgrass and barley grass, chlorella,
spirulina, blue-green algae, vegetables and fruits. Although these commercial
juices such as Naked's
Green Marchine or Trader Joe's green juices are flash pasteurized at
160 degrees fahrenheit (which destroys much of the enzymes and other important
nutrients) and are not made from organically grown veggies,
they can be a second best choice for busy people who do not have the time
to drink home-made fresh green juice.
Healing
Colon Cancer with RAW Food
A personal account Excerpt from
God's Way to Ultimate Health By Rev. George H. Malkmus
"The year was 1976. I was 42 years old and I was told I had colon cancer.
A tumor about the size of a baseball had been found underneath my left
rib cage where the transverse and descending colon come together. I was
devastated! I asked, "Why me Lord?" I didn't understand!
"What
was I to do?...as a pastor for 20 years, I had sat at the bed- side of
so many people and watched the devastating effects of chemotherapy,
radiation and surgery experienced by others in the treatment of
their cancers, I had also conducted the funerals for many of them."
"...he advised me not to go the medical route of chemotherapy, radiation
and surgery, as mom had gone... BUT TO SIMPLY CHANGE MY DIET
TO RAW FRUITS AND VEGETABLES, AND DRINK LOTS OF FRESH CARROT JUICE!"

Overcoming lifelong chronic
illnesses and dramatic weight loss with natural/raw/living food diet
By the author of this web site---Shirley"...The Naturopahtic doctor gave me a homeopathic remedy and made me
switch my diet from the SAD (Standard American Diet) to eating mostly RAW
organically grown fruits, nuts and vegetables; I eliminated meat and dairy
products and cut down drastically the starchy stuff like grains, pasta,
and breads.
In 6 weeks, the lumps were completely gone. In 12 weeks I had lost 60
pounds effortlessly and my energy level and stamina improved dramatically.
My overall resistance to infections became excellent and I'm proud to say
that in the past 14 years I have not had a cold, flu, ear, throat or breast
infections or any other infections. Raw food and homeopathy also strengthened
my weak back and I have not suffered from back pains since. My eczema condition
improved dramatically (after an initial aggravation or healing
crisis which lasted several months) but was never completely cured.
(seeA light at the end of the tunnel
)for a currant update on my eczema/psoriasis condition which
is successfully being treated with 
flax
oil, evening primrose oil, herbs, raw vegetable juice and an Edgar Cayce
program).
I'm not a vegetarian. Strict vegan diets often lead to health improvements
in the short-term but in the long-term they are often disastrous.*Beware
of long term strict vegan diet. When I eat animal products, I try to
always eat it in a raw form: smoked or salt-cured meats or fishes, raw
or soft egg yolks, and raw butter and cheese made from unpasteurized cow
or goat milk from organic farms. (Why
I leave the highly refined, rapidly absorbable carbohydrates alone; cane
and beet sugar in all forms and guises, all cereal flours which means breads,
pies, cakes, spaghetti, macaroni, etc., all refined cereal products such
as cold and hot breakfast cereals, the quickly absorbable carbohydrate
vegetables, potatoes, corn, and rice, and all sweet soft drinks.) I never

That Heal : A Guide to Understanding and Using the Healing Powers of Natural
Foods
The
Raw Life: Becoming Natural in an unnatural world by
Paul Nison
"Food, by itself, has no healing power. Your body does the healing.
However, raw foods and a proper environment give your body the raw materials
it needs to detoxify, to create energy, and to
rebuild. Your body knows how to heal itself and is always trying to heal.
The instructions
for
self-healing, in fact, are encoded in the genes of every cell in your body.
As Dr. Hereward Carrington stated in his book "Fasting for Health and Long
Life": "Nature alone cures! All that anyone can do is to assist her efforts,
and permit her to repair the damage." Trust the intelligence of your body
and allow it to heal."
"Most people have yet to touch the surface of good health. Clean and
detoxify your body and you will become healthy. What doctors call a cold
or an illness is simply your body working to get rid of waste. It is the
effect of your body cleaning out all the unusable foods you have taken
in, through overeating, consumption of poor quality foods and bad combinations.Learn
and understand what detoxification is. That way you will be prepared
to experience it and its tremendous benefits, physically and mentally."

Deadly Diabetes Deception
Greed and dishonest science
have promoted a lucrative worldwide epidemic of diabetes that honesty and
good science can quickly reverse by naturally restoring the body's blood-sugar
control mechanism. Diabetics have been told for decades they can consume
sugary and sugar producing foods multiple times daily as long as they take
enough insulin to cover themselves. There has been little to no recognition
that high levels of insulin are just as dangerous over the long haul as
sugar is to the Diabetic. Repeat and prolonged exposure to high levels
of insulin is absolutely detrimental. Glucose-lowering drugs usually succeed
in lowering blood sugar levels, but may increase the death rate from heart
attacks. These drugs also are associated with weight gain, elevated cholesterol
and triglyceride levels, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, stomach pain,
drowsiness, and headache. Learn how you can improve diabetic condition

Proven To Be Largest Cause of Insulin Dependent Diabetes in Children
Dr. James E. Carey, Ph.D - "I was toxic.
Not only did the organic, unprocessed food that CHI served reduce or eliminate
the toxins that I was putting into my body, the program of drinking wheatgrass
juice and doing daily enemas helped my body eliminate toxins that I'd
been accumulating all of my life. By eating processed foods, I'd been putting
toxins into my body faster than my body could remove them. I learned that
my body was storing these toxins in fat cells in order to protect me. Once
I eliminated the toxins I was ingesting, my body was able to quickly process
the backlogged accumulation."
"Endless epidemiological studies show associations between the human
consumption of carrots, green vegetables, fruit, cereals and wine, and
reduced rates of cancer, circulatory problems and infectious disease. In
the Stone Age, human beings ate more than a hundred species of plants;
a 
modern
urban diet typically consists of fewer than twenty. Skeletal remains suggest
that in shifting from a hunter-gatherer to an agrarian lifestyle, people
became stunted and undernourished. It may be that the modern urban diet
leaves out some of the dietary constituents on which we evolved, and that
increased consumption of fruit and vegetables helps mimic the Stone Age
diet to which we are adapted." Valerie Curtis is
senior lecturer in hygiene promotion at the London School of Hygiene and
Tropical Medicine.
Engel, a lecturer in environmental sciences at the U.K. Open University,
author of Wild
Health: How Animals Keep Themselves Well and What We Can Learn From Them,
has compiled a wealth of fascinating laboratory studies and field observations
on how animals treat and prevent diseases. For millennia, humans
have observed animals in the wild eating plants and minerals and applying
naturally occurring topical antitoxins from the same sources to combat
infectious wounds, parasites and internal disorders. Herds of elephants
risk injury and death in a perilous journey to hidden salt caves where
they supplement their sodium deficient diets. Monkeys rub poisonous millipedes
on their fur to repel biting, disease-carrying insects. Birds line their
nests with parasite-resistant herbs. Engel details a world where nature
is the pharmacy and every animal is its own practitioner. The reader also
learns about the inbred weaknesses unintentionally visited upon domesticated
animals through centuries of faulty genetic tampering by humans. Engel
notes that the implications of all this for human health are sadly familiar:
our biggest killers today (cancer, heart disease) result from unhealthy
eating. Animals in the wild stay remarkably fit because they stick to a
diet for which they were adapted, while human beings are ill-equipped to
handle our current predilection for dairy, grains and processed foods.

The Story of My Journey Into
Health
By Shirley, the author of this web site
I was once a victim of the never-ending flow of propaganda from the
medical establishment (which I think of as the "disease" establishment
because they focus on disease rather than on prevention and wellness) who
wants to maintain a monopoly on the word "cure" and who wants us to believe
that we have no control over our own health and that our only hope to get
"well" is with drugs, surgery and radiation. Learn
how I achieved optimum health without drugs, surgery or radiation.
"First do no harm..."
At the beginning of this year (1996), the doctor told my husband that
he had cancer of the lung. He refused surgery/chemo,
etc. Instead, I immediately began to treat my husband raw
vegetable juice, herbal remedies. Over the months, doctors have
continued to monitor my husband's tumor with CAT scan and PET scan. The
tumor has completely stopped growing and to this day my husband is doing
fine

We live in a society where $33 billion dollars per year is pumped into
advertising unhealthy processed foods, fast foods and junk foods -
and a large percentage of that advertising is aimed right at your kids
– and it works. The processed food industry has successfully changed
what we consider to be “normal” in terms what we eat and what we feed our
children. The processed food, junk food, and fast food industries are serving
it up, Americans are gulping it down, and wide spread obesity and chronic
disease is the result. From there, the masses are driven into the "waiting
hands" of the highly profitable drug companies. We're offered pills that

Alkaline
Food and Water Supports Optimum HealthIt has been determined that an alkaline body is more conducive to health
and well-being than an acidic one. An undesirable pH can lead to a variety
of negative health effects. A body that tends toward acidity heightens
the risk for infections from bacteria, yeast, parasites, and viruses. All
of these seek out and thrive in an acid environment. Not only are you more
susceptible to infections such as colds and the flu but also degenerative
diseases like cancer, arthritis, heart disease and osteoporosis are promoted
if your pH is consistently acid. Furthermore, 
populations
of bacteria, fungi, etc. may be thriving throughout your body without causing
acute disease, yet producing copious acid waste products. These stealth
infections may underlie a variety of degenerative conditions. Bacteria
are found in arthritic joints, arterial plaque, and many other places.
If disease is to be prevented or successfully managed, an acid pH must
be overcome.
Body acidity is quickly becoming a focus of research in the prevention
of many illnesses that result from an increased acidity within the body.
Scientists have found that healthy people have systems that are alkaline.
Optimum alkalinity at the cellular level equates to optimum health. A healthy
person's pH level of their body fluids should be between 7.1 and 7.5 An
imbalanced pH can negatively affect the physical health of almost all body
systems and lead to diseases including cancer, diabetes, arthritis, heart
disease, kidney stones and many more. Because the modern diet is so high
in acid-forming foods, most people are exposed to heightened levels of
acid on a daily basis. The cells of the body in health are alkaline. In
disease the cell pH is below 7.0. The more acid the cells become, the sicker
we are and feel. We can remain in health by consuming a diet that is 70-80%
alkaline and 20-30% acid. Most raw-foods diets are predominantly
alkaline forming foods.

THE
MYTHS OF VEGETARIANISM
by Stephen Byrnes, PhD, RNCP
Along with the unjustified and unscientific saturated
fat and cholesterol scares of the past several decades has come the notion
that vegetarianism is a healthier dietary option for people. It seems as
if every health expert and government health agency is urging people to
eat fewer animal products and consume more vegetables, grains, fruits and
legumes. Along with these exhortations have come assertions and studies
supposedly proving that vegetarianism is healthier for people and that
meat consumption is associated with sickness and death. Several authorities,
however, have questioned these data, but their objections have been largely
ignored.
EXAMPLE
OF ALL-RAW PRIMITIVE DIET, WITH ANIMAL PRODUCTS
An Interview with Aajonus Vonderplanitz
I continued eating raw meat once or twice weekly,
and my health gradually increased. Whenever I experienced detoxification,
healing was always a progress toward better functionality. I did not deteriorate
as most people do on cooked foods or meatless raw foods. I knew I was on
the right track by eating raw meat, but I could not set aside the bacteria
and parasite phobias. I was especially concerned because the vagus nerve
to my stomach had been severed in surgery for stomach cancer. I had no
hydrochloric acid to dissolve and annihilate bacteria and parasites upon
entering my body. Science and medicine put me in the category of octogenarians
who they say, are in danger of death from bacterial and parasitic invasion
from lack of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. I continued to eat meat
anyway.
After I learned about the tremendous properties
of raw fats my successes reached 60%. After I learned about the fantastic
healing characteristics of eating raw meat, my successes with disease rose
to 75%. After I learned the techniques for amounts and particulars that
certain foods had, my successes reached 85% and better, depending upon
the disease.
Why
eat uncooked food," you might ask. Well, a better question to ask yourself
is, "Why eat cooked food?" The truth is that there are a great number of
of reasons to eat fresh, raw foods. There is growing evidence that raw
foods are much easier for our bodies to digest and assimilate. As we cook
or otherwise process fresh raw foods, nutrients are altered and damaged,
making it harder for our bodies to optimally use the food we consume. Gradually
changing to a diet rich in raw foods, including raw animal foods, can facilitate
very positive and lasting health benefits.

Why
Go Organic?
Ten reasons why
you should go organic. Certified Organic does not just mean chemical
free, it’s about the whole system; Soil, Plants, People and the Environment.
The organic movement began at the same time as industrialised agriculture.
It evolved through the 1950s and 1960s with the launch of such books as
Silent
Spring by Rachel Carson, which exposed the toxic bio-accumulative effects
of pesticides. The world’s first certified organic skin, body, hair,
oral and health care. Developed in Australia, the ONE Group range of products
is independently certified by Australian Certified Organic (ACO) and the
United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to the highest international
food standards.
Processed food and fast foods are depriving us
of even more essential nutrients. Many scientists believe that commercial
farming, which burns out nutrients and adds poisons to the soil, as well
as shipping foods "green" to ripen upon trucks, are major contributors
to ill health. Many corporations continue activities harmful to our health
to increase profits at the cost of our ecosystem and food chain. They do
not inform the public about the true extent of the problem created by toxic
substances and harmful additives in our foods nor about the environmental
pollution generated from their manufacturing plants. A movie released a
few years ago, A Civil Action, depicts this lack of accountability in the
corporate arena. Finally, according to research scientist named Andreas
Hartman "A class of broad spectrumantibiotics in drinking water is causing
toxicity to human DNA!" Given these harsh challenges, one might seriously
ask how can we best protect ourselves and optimize our health.
"Organic"
Crops Raised with Pesticides? The USDA has now stated that as long
as the farmer and the organic certifier don't know the specific ingredients
of the pesticides applied to the "organic" plants, the crops can be sold
as "organic". To make matters worse, it is not required by law for pesticide
companies to list the ingredients on their products (it's considered proprietary
information), so the farmers rarely know what the specific ingredients
are.
Unconscionable
Police Raid on Family's Home and Organic Food Co-Op You won’t believe
how far some authorities will go to stifle your right to make healthy choices
for your family.
Certified
Organic? Think again
Perchlorate, the explosive component of rocket
and missile fuel, contaminates more than 500 drinking water sources in
20 states, serving well over 20 million people. Among contaminated sources
is the Colorado River, which provides drinking water for Los Angeles, Phoenix,
Las Vegas and other cities. Perchlorate can affect the thyroid gland’s
ability to make essential hormones. For fetuses, infants and children,
disruptions in thyroid hormone levels can cause lowered IQ, mental retardation,
loss of hearing and speech, and motor skill deficits.

Disease-promoting
ingredients in everyday foods and groceries are far more dangerous than
terrorists. We've got a food supply that is accelerating the
deaths of literally millions of Americans each year? The toxic additives
and ingredients found in our foods are directly causing chronic diseases
like cancer, diabetes and heart disease. They're even causing mental disorders
(ADHD, depression) while creating unstable mental conditions that lead
to violent, aggressive behavior, especially in young males. more
When
organic, unrefined salt lack in your diet, weakness and sickness follow."Many people believe that salt is harmful to the
human body. The truth is we cannot live without salt (sodium chloride)"
Dr.
Jeffrey R. Cutler
An eight-year study of a New York City hypertensive
population stratified for sodium intake levels found those on low-salt
diets had more than four times as many heart attacks as those on normal-sodium
diets – the exact opposite of what the “salt hypothesis” would have predicted.
Refined Salt:
the problem with salt is not the salt itself but the condition of the salt
we eat! Major producing companies dry their salt in huge kilns with temperatures
reaching 1200 degrees F, changing he salt's chemical structure, which in
turn adversely affects the human body. An abundance of the ingredients
in unrefined, unheated,
real salt are as synonymous
with life today as they were a billion years ago before single cells appeared
here. Lack of them is synonymous with birth defects, organ failure, decay,
diseases, premature aging and death at a young age.

healing with nature. Nature provides us with a simple, straightforward
system for regaining and maintaining superb human health and beauty.
"Bee
Pollen is often referred to as nature's most complete
food, containing all of the 22 elements that the human body requires to
function, provides you with 135 essential nutrients, a vast array of vitamins,
minerals, amino acids and more. Human consumption of bee pollen is praised
in the Bible, other religious books, and ancient Chinese and Egyptian texts.
It has long been prescribed by traditional health practitioners-including
the fathers of Western medicine Hippocrates, Pliny the Elder, and Pythagoras-for
its healing properties. Bee pollen rejuvenates the body, stimulates organs
and glands, enhances vitality, and brings about a longer life span. Bee
pollen's ability to consistently and noticeably increase energy levels
makes it a favorite substance among many world class athletes and those
interested in sustaining and enhancing quality performance." Steve Schecter

Fulvic Acid and Shilajit
are involved in complex biochemical reactions in living plants and animals,
which directly influence the very metabolic processes at the cellular level.
Fulvic acid is a humic substance or extract. Humic substances are found
in rich humus soil in trace amounts and are
considered nature's own
best medicine for plants, animals, humans,
and the Earth itself.
To the science of living cells, fulvic acids are vital in bringing substantial
amounts of nutrients and minerals into water solution and delivering their
living energies to the living cells. Fulvic acid assists every stage of
cellular metabolism and is the most powerful, natural electrolyte known.
It restores electrical balance to damaged cells, neutralizes toxins and
can eliminate food poisoning within minutes. Shilajit in Sanskrit
means "conqueror of mountains and destroyer of weakness". It comes from
the rocks in the lower Himalayas and is the most important natural remedy
of Ayurvedic medicine.
The active principle of shilajit is fulvic acid.
Traditionally
considered a panacea and a strong kidney tonic, it increases the core energy
responsible for your sexual and spiritual power, the same force that is
withered by stress and anxiety. “There is hardly any curable disease which
cannot be controlled or cured with the aid of Shilajit.” - Famous Indian
Vaid Charak (1st Century A.D. It is used by the indigenous system of medicine
in India, Hakims and Vaids and traditional healers, in a great variety
of diseases: genitourinary diseases, diabetes, chronic bronchitis, asthma,
gall stones, jaundice, painful and bleeding piles, epilepsy, enlarged liver
and spleen, fermentative dyspepsia, digestive disorders, worms, renal and
bladder calculi, nervous debility, sexual neurasthenia, hysteria, anaemia
and in bone fracture.
