FOOD CURES

Stop subbsidies to the Farming and their Grain monocultures:


Grass fed chicken and cattle, their natural diet, are high in Omega3, re-establishing the healthy ratio of Omega3 to Omega 6. Animal protein is the best source for Selenium, Zinc, D, chromium, DHA, taurine, the full set of essential amino acids, and for B12, which is not found in any other source. All of which are essential for brain health. The opposing thumb allowed us to use rocks and become the first animal to break into the cranial cavity of animals, providing us with the richest source of Omega3 and amino acids. The review of research is showing that the causes of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, bone diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, and even tooth decay is sugar and its close cousin grains, especially refined carbohydrates, and the lack of certain important parts of fish and animals. (1) (6) (16)

Research on present day hunter gathers in Africa whose diet is composed mostly of blood and milk and occasionally meat showed no heart disease or cancer, but when members moved and started consuming other diets, cancer and heart disease developed. Populations in different areas of India were compared. Those eating diets lower in sugars and don’t use refined carbs had very small rates of heart disease and cancer compared to other populations which had adopted refined grains and added sugar. The French have lower levels of cancer and heart disease than Italians. The French diet uses high fat sauces but less carbs compared to the Italian diet which is heavy on pasta and other grains. Research done on the Greenland Inuit tribe showed they consumed large amounts of fat but displayed virtually no cardiovascular disease. The high levels of Omega3 in the food reduced triglycerides in the blood. (6) Even child birth was quick and easy till they changed to a more modern diet.

AVOID sugar, refined carbs (a sugar), excess copper(chocolate), caffeine, and alcohol. All leach minerals from the body. All are things we tend to do in excess when stressed. All have high correlation with mental health illnesses, including depression. Stress causes the secretion of cortisol and also causes loss of volumes of vitally necessary vitamins and minerals.

CORTISOL is a stress hormone which releases amino acids from the muscles, glucose from the liver, and fatty acids into the blood stream to produce a tremendous amount of energy. These are released so they can be available for "Fight or Flight." Since our modern stresses don’t require either, the cortisol remains in the system and causes the release of more cortisol and continues the process of depleting our organs. Sustained elevated stress levels lead to widespread tissue destruction, muscle loss, bone loss, immune system depression and brain shrinkage! 200mg of CAFFEINE increases blood cortisol levels by 30%! EXERCISE is the natural way to use up the cortisol, getting it out of your system. (18)

The AMISH have low levels of Depression, Cancer, and Cardiovascular disease and eat grains, meats, lard, cookies, etc.. BUT they average 14,000 steps daily vs 2000-3000 steps by average American. A farmer planting a field was recorded at 51,000 steps.

Seventh Day Adventists are vegetarians and have excellent health and longevity but they don't smoke, drink alcohol nor coffee and are very health conscious. Mormons with the same restrictions but on a non-vegetarian diet have better health. (5)

EXERCISE lowers insulin, cortisol, and the symptoms of stress and depression. It’s one of the healthiest things you can do to calm stress and feel more able to deal effectively with whatever the day brings. (3)(8)(10) (12)(16)

So, consider grass-fed animals, eggs, and milk, plus vegetables and fruits. A couple of ounces of animal protein with every meal is all that's needed - excess isn’t healthy in any form- and exercise.

(10) What if Bad Fats Are Actually Good For You? http://www.menshealth.com/health/saturated-fat According to lead study author Jeff Volek, Ph.D., R.D., ... Insulin's job is to return your blood sugar to normal, but it also signals your body to store fat. As a result, your liver starts converting excess blood sugar to triglycerides, or fat. All of which helps explain why the low-carb dieters in Volek's study had a greater loss of fat in their blood. Restricting carbs keeps insulin levels low, which lowers your internal production of fat and allows more of the fat you do eat to be burned for energy. .. Volek's study, participants who followed the low-fat diet -- which was high in carbs -- also decreased their triglycerides. " The key factor is that they weren't overeating," says Volek. "This allowed the carbohydrates to be used for energy rather than converted to fat." Perhaps this is the most important point of all. If you consistently consume more calories than you burn, and you gain weight, your risk of heart disease will increase
