The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America!


"The beginning of wisdom is to call things by the right names." -Chinese Proverb

The root cause. That is where it all begins.

Remember: Your 'dis-ease' is a symptom of something very fundamental happening within you.

Drugs deal with the short-term effect, the surface cause of your discomfort, the symtom.

Make no mistake, the real source of the health challenge or dis-ease is the way you live your life.

It is a sad fact, but 99% of people in the world are completely asleep.

Ignorant. Oblivious to what is really going on with their body and how to keep it healthy.

Have you seen the movie "The Matrix"? Millions of human beings that THINK they are experiencing reality, when in fact are living an illusion whilst locked up, 'harvested', and 'explioted'.

So, I am about to give you the red pill, blue pill choice.

"This is your last chance. After this there is no turning back. If you take the blue pill, the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. If you take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland and I'll show you how deep the rabbit hole goes." - Morpheus, in 'The Matrix'

Conventional medicine (also known as Orthodox or Allopathic medicine) utilizes poisonous substances (drugs) in non-lethal dosages in order to suppress symptoms. This approach neither addresses the cause of the disease condition, nor is it responsible for healing the patient. Rather, the use of pharmacuetical drugs will temporaily mask the manifestations of the so-called disease, while at the same time, drive the disease deeper into the body . . . only to reappear at a later date, as a more serious, and chronic health threat.

Do not assume that the only difference between Allopathic and Alternative medicine, however, is an honest difference of option in the philosophies on the origin of disease states. Hardly! There is, in truth, a concerted agenda organized by the international pharmaceutical companies to suppress any and every alternative, non-drug therapy that WORKS!

WHY?

Because they want people to keep on coming back for more treatments and more toxic and aicidic drugs.

A cured patient is a lost source of income (cures KILL profits!) A sick patient who is marginally 'improved' is a manageable patient.

Managing patients means routine office visits and renewing of drup prescriptions.

Therefore, a manageable patient is a continuing source of income, a cash cow if you will. Multiply that by a few hundred million people and you get an idea why this deceit is being put upon you. The profits from ths so-called 'health-care', 'sick-care" industry are staggering!

The thrust of the orthodox pharmaceutical agenda is to provide temporary relief, while never addressing the cause of the disease. This agenda insures regular visits to the doctor's office and requires the patient to routinely return to the pharmacy to refill his/her prescriptions.

This is what the game is all about folks, plain and simple.

There are a number of alternative approaches, like the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet as outlined in The pH Miracle Revised and Updated book (published 2010), that flat out works so well and costs so little (compared to conventional treatment), that the Medical Industry, the Food and Drup Administration, and the Pharmaceutical Industry, (the 'Big Three') are fighting tooth and nail to keep the pH Miracle life-changing, life saving lifestyle and diet suppressed. The reason is obvious. The pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet flat out works, is non-toxic and represents a potential loss of billions of dollars to the medical and drug companies.

"The individual is handicapped by coming face to face with a conspriacy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists." - J. Edgar Hoover, FBI Director

Through continuous marketing and advertising the public has been brainwashed into equating MEDICAL CARE with HEALTH CARE, where in fact exactly the opposite applies: modern medicine has become the principal cause of disease today! (Hans Ruesch)

Once again, so-called 'health care' is in reality 'sickness care'.

What a person really needs is education NOT more medication - True 'health care' NOT 'sickness care'. We do NOT need a so-called Health Insurance Plan (ObamaCare) but an education on wellness and health that empowers each individual with the knowledge of how to take care of the their body. Like a manual on how to take care of your car. People take better care of their cars then their bodies. Why? Because there is NO true health and wellness education just sickness and disease education. And who is doing the educating on keeping us sick, tired and fat? The 'Big Pharma' and 'Big Money'.

Once again, people NEED education NOT medication. We do NOT need another so-called wonder drug. There is NO SUCH THING. Each us needs to understand that the cure for ALL sickness and disease will be found in prevention NOT treatment.

I believe we need to understand that doctors prescribed drugs of which they know little, for the human or animal body of which they know less, for diseases for which they know NOTHING at all!

Will Soy Prevent or Reverse Disease?


Will Eating and/or Drinking Soy Prevent or Reverse Dis-ease or So-called Disease?

Cancer is a group of dis-eases characterized by the uncontrolled fermentation and degeneration of body cells. Over 10 million Americans today are cancer survivors, and about 1.4 million Americans are expected to be diagnosed each year.1

"Diet plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of ALL cancerous conditions, and soy protein is one of the leading anti-acid or alkalizing and therefore anti-carcinogenic foods being studied," stated Dr. Robert O. Young, Director of Research at the pH Miracle Living Center.

SOY FOODS & CANCER

There has been much focus during the past 15 years on the anticancer effects of soy foods.2There are several presumed chemopreventive agents in the soy bean,6 but the isoflavones have received the most attention.3 A particular interest lies in the role of soy foods and isoflavones in reducing the risk of breast and prostate cancer.2

SOY & BREAST CANCER

Data modestly supports the hypothesis that soy food intake may reduce the incidence of breast cancer. A recently published analysis found the relative risk for breast cancer was 95 percent when comparing high- vs. low-soy consumers.5 However, many of the case-control and prospective studies included in this analysis were of poor quality.6

Rodent studies have generally shown that isoflavones, or soy protein, inhibit chemically induced mammary tumors when given prior to tumor initiation7-9, although there are a number of exceptions.10-12 Interestingly, the chemopreventive effects of isoflavones appear to be affected by the background dietary choices.

When the isoflavone genistein was added to the semi-purified diet, chemically induced rodent mammary tumors were not inhibited, but when added to the regular chow diet, tumor development was suppressed by approximately 50 percent.13 This suggests that animal research, which most commonly uses semi-purified diets, may actually underestimate the potential anticarcinogenic effects of soy and other foods.

Soy & Markers of Breast Cancer

In contrast to the animal and epidemiologic data, there is little clinical evidence that soy or isoflavones favorably affect markers of breast cancer risk including breast tissue density,14, 15serum estrogen levels,16, 17 and breast cell proliferation.18 There is limited evidence that estrogen metabolism is favorably affected19 and that menstrual cycle length is increased (which decreases cancer risk).16

Nevertheless, there remains considerable enthusiasm for the possibility that soy food intake contributes to the low breast cancer rate in Japan.

Early Intake of Soy May Reduce Breast Risk

There is both epidemiologic 20-22 and animal 23, 24 data in support of the hypothesis that early soy intake reduces later risk of developing breast cancer. This hypothesis is consistent with mounting evidence that early life influences — parity, lactation, age at menses, birth weight, etc. — impact risk of developing breast cancer.25-36 Studies of migrants suggest that the first 20 years of life have an especially profound impact on risk.36-38 The epidemiologic data suggest just one to two servings of soy foods is protective.

Breaking News - Soy Breast Cancer Study

Soy Breast Cancer Study Holds Promise, But Calls for Further Research

For more than 15 years, soy foods have been actively investigated for their possible role in reducing breast cancer risk. Initial enthusiasm about this hypothesis was based on several observations. These include the low breast cancer rates in Japan, early animal research indicating that soy beans in rodent diets reduced mammary tumor development and evidence suggesting that the isoflavones (phytoestrogens) in soy foods may exert anti-estrogenic effects.

However, establishing a relationship between cancer risk and diet – especially specific foods – is much more difficult than establishing such links in the case of other chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease. This is because there are few well-established non-invasive indicators of cancer risk, and studies are very rarely conducted for long enough to measure actual differences in tumor incidence. Consequently, it is difficult to claim with confidence whether a particular intervention increases or decreases the chances of developing cancer.

Epidemiologic research is a useful mode of investigation for exploring a relationship between diet and cancer. Epidemiology is the study of the patterns, causes, and control of disease in groups of people. There are two primary types of epidemiologic studies, case-control and prospective studies. In case-control studies, scientists compare people with cancer to those without in hopes of identifying characteristics such as lifestyle or diet that are more common to one group than the other. In prospective studies, scientists first evaluate the characteristics of a large group of healthy people, then follow those subjects for many years in hopes of identifying whether certain factors are more common to those who develop cancer than to those who don't. Generally, prospective studies are considered more credible than case-control studies. It is important to recognize, however, that epidemiologic studies cannot establish cause and effect relationships. Only clinical trials can do that. But epidemiologic studies are often used as a basis for clinical research.

To evaluate the relationship between soy intake and breast cancer risk, Bruce Trock and colleagues from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and Georgetown University conducted a meta-analysis of epidemiologic studies. A meta-analysis is the statistical analysis of a large collection of results from individual studies for the purpose of integrating the findings. This particular analysis included 12 case-control studies and 6 prospective studies. The major finding of this analysis was that when all women (Asian and non-Asian, pre- and postmenopausal) were considered, soy intake was associated with a 14% reduction in breast cancer risk. That is, women consuming higher quantities of soy were 14% less likely to develop breast cancer than women who consumed relatively little soy. However, subgroup analysis revealed that soy was more protective against pre- compared to postmenopausal breast cancer, and was protective in studies involving non-Asian women but not Asian women.

The analysis by Trock and colleagues provides modest support for the notion that soy may protect against breast cancer. A 14% reduction is certainly noteworthy, but for several reasons the study results should be interpreted with caution.

First, in many studies, soy intake was not actually quantified. Rather, it was estimated based on the urinary excretion of isoflavones. Because urinary isoflavone excretion varies so much from person to person, it provides only a rough approximation of soy intake. Furthermore, although soy was found to be protective in studies involving non-Asian women, the intake of soy by the women in these studies was quite low. There is some doubt as to whether such low intakes are sufficient to exert biological effects. Since soy foods are still consumed by only a minority of people in non-Asian countries – and are often favored by especially health-conscious individuals – we must consider the possibility that the perceived cancer-protective effects of soy may result from an overall healthy lifestyle, rather than soy consumption per se. Although the researchers employed statistical techniques to try to separate the effects of soy from other factors common to people who eat soy, this is very difficult to do.

While some evidence, including the new analysis by Trock and colleagues, suggests soy foods may reduce breast cancer risk, no conclusions can be made at this time. Nevertheless, because soy foods provide excellent nutrition, they can play an important role in an overall healthy diet, regardless of their possible relationship to breast cancer protection.

SOY & PROSTATE CANCER

The soy bean isoflavone genistein inhibits the growth of both androgen-dependent39-42 and androgen-independent39, 42-45 prostate cancerous cells, depending on the level of soy doses administered. In addition, genistein inhibits the invasive capacity of prostate cancerous cells 42and enhances the ability of radiation to kill these cells.46 However, the concentration of genistein required to exert these effects is higher than the serum isoflavone levels of people who eat soy foods.47-49 Nevertheless, several observations suggest these effects are biologically relevant.39,44-49

Regional Diets Can Impact Prostate Cancer

In Japan, although many men have prostate cancer, few die of this dis-ease. This is because the small tumors often referred to as latent prostate cancer, not uncommon to Japanese men, rarely progress to the more advanced form of this disease.51, 52 Isoflavones in combination with tea extracts were shown to reduce tumor growth in mice more effectively than either agent alone.9

In Asia, and especially in Japan, where prostate cancer mortality rates are low, both soy foods and tea are important components of their diet. There are likely several factors that contribute to this clinical situation in Japanese men and according to the International Prostate Health Council, and isoflavone intake from soy foods may be one.53

There has been limited epidemiologic investigation of the relationship between soy intake and prostate cancer. These studies have produced mixed results but can be said to be consistent with the hypothesis that soy intake reduces prostate cancer risk.

A recent analysis of 10 epidemiologic studies found that soy intake was associated with a one-third reduction in prostate cancer risk.5 However, many of the epidemiologic studies involved a small number of cases54, 55 and/or did not comprehensively evaluate soy food intake. However, a recent comprehensive Japanese case-control study found that when comparing the highest with the lowest soy food intake cases, risk was reduced by nearly 50 percent.56

Soy May Help Treat Existing Prostate Cancer

Data suggests that soy foods may be useful in the treatment of existing prostate cancer, but this remains speculative. A study of 11 trials, three involving healthy subjects57-59 and eight involving prostate cancer patients,60-67 examined the effects of isoflavones on PSA levels. No benefits were noted in healthy subjects, but among the cancer patients one-half noted favorable effects.68Recent intervention data demonstrate that reducing prostate cancer risk is not dependent upon reductions in PSA levels.69

Thermography Shows The Damaging Effects of Cell Phone Radiation!

Thank you, Dr. Young for educating people about the link between Cell Phone Usage and Cancer. Researchers have debated whether another, more long-term danger of cell phone usage lurks: brain cancer. Cell phones, like other electronic devices, emit a certain level of radiation. The radiation is “non-ionizing”, meaning it does not strip atoms and molecules from the tissue and alter chemical reactions in the body like ionizing radiation, or X-Rays. Radiation from cell phones comes from the transmitter, and is emitted through the antenna. Both parts are located near the top, or where a person places a cell phone to the ear in order to hear. With the help of Medical Diagnostic Thermography you can have a visual proof how damaging cell phone radiation to your body. Call Dr. Young office to have your Full Body Medical Diagnostic Thermography and Diagnostic Ultrasound.
Knowledge is Power.

Infertility On The Rise In Canada

More Canadians say they're having trouble conceiving, according to new research looking at infertility rates.

Infertility is on the rise in Canada, according to the first study in nearly two decades to measure the proportion of Canadian couples who are having difficulty conceiving.

The researchers didn't set out to discover why the numbers are increasing. But possible explanations range from the growing number of women who are pushing back pregnancy ever later in life, to rising rates of obesity and heavy drinking among women, to declining sperm counts in men — though experts aren't convinced about that final factor.

The use of assisted-procreation technologies has increased dramatically over the past decade, yet "little is known about the prevalence of infertility in the population," the authors write in the journal, Human Reproduction.

The research was supported by funding from Assisted Human Reproduction Canada, a federal agency. The lead author is from Statistics Canada.

According to their estimates, up to 16 per cent of heterosexual couples where the woman is age 18 to 44 are experiencing infertility — a near doubling since the previous time infertility was measured in the nation in 1992.

Not surprisingly, the older the woman, the higher the prevalence of infertility.

Yet infertility appears to be rising among younger women as well, the study finds.

In 1984, about five per cent of couples with a female partner age 18 to 29 were infertile.

By 2009-10, the prevalence for the same age group ranged from seven to 13.7 per cent.

For their analysis, researchers used data from a sample of 4,412 couples from the 2009-2010 Canadian Community Health Survey.

Infertility ranged from 11.5 per cent, to 15.7 per cent.

Those estimates are based on whether couples had reported becoming pregnant or not in the past 12 months, were not using any form of birth control within the past 12 months while having sexual intercourse, and had tried to become pregnant with their current partner. Regardless of how it was defined, each estimate represented an increase in infertility when compared with previous national estimates, said first author Tracey Bushnik, a senior analyst at Statistics Canada.

In 1992, 8.5 per cent of women age 18 to 44 who were married or living common-law were considered infertile.

In 1984, the figure was 5.4 per cent.

Not only are the emotional, physical and financial costs to couples substantial, the researchers write, but the health system also has to bear the costs of caring for premature babies or multiple births born from asssisted reproductive technology.

The new study "just confirms everything we've been gnawing on for the last little while," said Dr. Roger Pierson, a world leader in research into ovarian physiology at the University of Saskatchewan.

Canada's pregnancy specialists have been sounding an alarm over the risks of deferred motherhood. The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada — which has just issued new guidelines to doctors on "advanced reproductive age" and fertility — worries that women are placing too much blind faith in high-tech fertility treatments to help them conceive once they're ready to have a baby.

For women over 40, the failure rate approaches 90 per cent.

"We're not miracle workers," said Dr. Al Yuzpe, co-author of the new study and co-founder of the Genesis Fertility Centre in Vancouver, one of the largest in-vitro-fertilization clinics in the country.

"We know that there's a precipitous drop in conception rates as women get older," he said.

The other authors of the report were: Jocelynn L. Cook, of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Ottawa; Suzanne Tough, of the Departments of Pediatrics and Community Health Sciences at the University of Calgary; and John Collins, of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ont.

In addition to the well-documented impact of age, other factors affecting female fertility include obesity, alcohol use and sexually transmitted infections.

While fewer women are smoking, more younger women are boozing heavily: reported rates of heavy drinking — defined as five or more drinks at a time at least once a month — among women age 20 to 34 increased from nine per cent in 1994, to 20 per cent in 2010.

Reported rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea are also rising, with the majority of infections reported for women under 30.

And obesity rates are climbing: In 2007-09, 21 per cent of women ages 20 to 39 in Canada were obese, up from four per cent in 1981. Obesity can interfere with a woman's normal ovarian function.

Obese men, meanwhile, have been found to have lower volumes of semen and a higher proportion of abnormal sperm. But just how much a role sperm count deterioration may be having on declining fertility is controversial.

Yuzpe said the data are not convincing.

"The question keeps coming up: Are men's sperm counts getting worse?" he said. "There might be a slight overall reduction in sperm counts, but not from 'normal' to 'abnormal' sort of thing," he said.

Yuzpe said people are much more likely today to report difficulty conceiving than they would have been in the past, "because of the stigma associated with it," but also because people didn't seek help "because there wasn't much we could do for them.

"It's only in the last 35 or 40 years that we've had anything of any significance that we could do for women, or for couples," he said.

Pierson said the study raises important individual and societal questions, including when is the right time to have a child?

"If we were to suddenly stop ART (assisted reproductive technology) and say, 'We're going to support women having children in their early 20s,' I would say that most of the infertility issue would go away.

"That's not our cultural reality," Pierson said. "We have to come to a better understanding of our biological imperatives, and our social expectations."

Health Begins In The Navel!


Young pHorever™ pHlush
by pH Miracle®

This unique pH formulation is rich in oxygen, magnesium, and other powerful ingredients that make an excellent cleanser for your alimentary canal.

The basic natural concepts of health have been lost. Millions of people die every year and tens of millions suffer needlessly because they fail to follow the natural laws of their beings and are being treated with obsolete and unnatural methods that avoid the true cause of all sickness and dis-ease.

Though the causes of dis-ease are generally ignored by conventional medicine, we do have a history of doctors who agree that the primary causes are always associated with acidic e-motions, toxicity, congestion, and malnutrition. These conditions gradually alter and weaken our internal environment. Once that environment reaches certain acidic polluted levels, dis-ease cycles are initiated.

"Acidosis and Toxicosis are the primary causes of all disease. Rid the body of these poisons and correct the habits of living, and good health will be regained and maintained" and, "just as maggots and flies require the filth of the manure pile in which they grow and propagate, so the human organism must become broken down and filthy through bad habits of living before the tissues and juices of the body will permit the harboring and growth of any noxious bacteria."

"However, in view of the scientific researches which have been cast aside by medicine it is just as reasonable to assume that the maggots and flies found in a manure pile caused the manure pile as it is to assume that the various kinds of germs found in a thoroughly filthy body, caused the condition of ill health."
---P.L. Clark, BS, MD, Ph.Sa

The survival of every animal, bird, fish, plant, and cell, whether it is bacteria, yeast, or protozoa, depends entirely upon its environment.

Dis-ease is never acquired; it is always created. Dis-ease is a natural result obtained from an unnatural lifestyle. Dis-ease is not a question of exposure. It is an internal development that can lead to exposure susceptibility. The entry of an outside entity (bacteria, yeast, parasite) has little effect upon our bodies unless our internal environment has become acidic, polluted, and congested.

An increase in microforms or germs can only be successful when our bodies have degenerated into a severely acidic and polluted environment and our immune system compromised. Indeed, an acidic environment can only cause the breakdown of the human cell and tissue in an acidic host, and germs are the product of the breakdown of that cell and tissue. The breakdown of the human cell and the birth of the germ does not happen in a clean, healthy, and vibrant human body. We must alter our normal healthy internal chemistry before acids can weaken our organs and glands with toxicity, congestion, or poor nutrition and before our body parts can malfunction.

The most important point to understand here is that germs do not cause dis-ease they are the product of cellular transformation. It is acid that breaks down the human cell not bacteria. It is acid that causes dis-ease not bacteria or yeast.

There is only one sickness, one dis-ease and one cause - the over-acidification of the blood and then tissues due to an inverted way of living, eating and thinking. There is NO OTHER CAUSE FOR DISEASE but ACIDITY.

A Great Secret of Health

The intestinal tract or better said the alkaline buffering system is the hub of our entire body - all organs, glands, even our brains, heart, and cells are totally dependent upon a good functioning alkaline buffering or digestive system. In the Western World, most people have polluted their bowels with filth unimaginable and weakened their digestive function. When the alkaline buffering or digestion is off, even good food can become acidic. As long as this filth remains within, our bodies grow weaker and we become more and more prone towards deficiencies and acidic dis-ease.

A few great doctors have realized this:

"In the 50 years I've spent helping people to overcome illness, disability and disease, it has become crystal clear that poor bowel management lies at the root of most people's health problems."

"Every tissue is fed by the blood, which is supplied by the bowel. When the bowel is dirty, the blood is dirty, and so on to the organs and tissues.... it is the bowel that invariably has to be cared for before any effective healing can take place."

"Of the 300 autopsies performed at National College in Chicago, 285 (patients) had claimed they were not constipated and had normal movements and only 15 had admitted they were constipated. However, autopsies revealed the opposite to be the case. Some of the histories of these 285 persons stated they had had as many as 5 or 6 bowel movements daily, yet autopsies revealed that in some of them the bowel was 12 inches in diameter. The bowel walls were encrusted with material, in one case peanuts which had been lodged there for a very long time."

"The toxic waste must be removed as quickly as possible to halt the downward spiral of failing health. This is best done by: 1. Removing accumulated fecal material from the bowel."
---Doctor Bernard Jensen, DC, ND, Ph.D.

Dr. Jensen publicly stated that over 90% of dis-ease in America could be traced to unhealthy conditions in the bowel. Privately, he told me that it's closer to 100%.

"There is but one dis-ease and that is deficient drainage of dietary and metabolic acids."
---Dr. Robert O. Young

"I am exceedingly impressed by the sequence of cancer and intestinal stasis."

"The poisons thus generated (in the bowel) pollute the bloodstream, causing every tissue, gland, and organ of the body to gradually deteriorate and be destroyed."
---Sir Arbuthnot Lane MS, FRCS, surgeon for the King of England

"Of the 22,000 operations that I have personally performed, I have never found a single normal colon, and of the 100,000 that were performed under my jurisdiction, not over 6% were normal."

"All of the diseases of civilization are due to improper functioning of the colon."
---Dr. Harvey Kellogg, M.D. of the Kellogg Sanitarium

"There is no natural death. All deaths that come from so-called natural causes are merely the end point of progressive acidic saturation.... However, if they would take care of their body and cleanse their colon and intestines, their problems would be pretty much eliminated and they could eliminate their "cross" by proper diet, proper exercise, and in general, proper living." Dr. George C. Crile, head of the Crile Clinic in Cleveland

Dr. V.E. Irons, a pioneer in colon cleansing theory wrote: "The cause of most conditions of ill health is autointoxication and that 95% of their troubles start in the colon. We can prove that we can find hardened mucous with its foul smelling curd in the colons of 95% of the entire nation."

Mucoid Plaque

Mucoid plaque is automatically secreted in the presence of acids, and other irritants and at first serves as a protection; but for those who have followed the standard American lifestyle, which is acid producing, it is common for mucoid plaque to form a continuous coating, arranged in layers, over the small intestine, stomach and the colon. When the mucus (mucin) is secreted, it coagulates and can compound with other elements, forming an increasingly firm and toxic substance, which may include: drugs, free radical-producing acidic noxious fecal compounds, heavy metals, parasites and more, depending on what the person eats, drinks, and thinks.

Mucoid plaque often interferes with normal bowel function, nutrient assimilation, and normal elimination. It will also provide a fertile stronghold for a large variety of microorganisms and their noxious acidic compounds. Thus, when the diet is improved and the person strives for maximum health, then mucoid plaque should be removed.

"This layer of mucus, when adhering closely to the mucosal surface, probably functions as a barrier to membrane digestion and most likely also to absorption... where, with increasing age, the mucus layer becomes more pronounced and widespread... it is hypothesized that the mucus barrier interferes with membrane digestion and absorption." J. Rainer Poley, Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition 1988 May-June; 7 (3): 386-94.

Is it any wonder that the greatest healers in the world have always insisted upon cleansing and rebuilding the alkaline buffering system or the alimentary canal?

I would also suggest taking 1 tablespoon of montmorillonite clay with 1 teaspoon of flax seed powder or psyllium seed powder mixed in 6 to 8 ounces of alkaline water and drink 2 to 3 times a day. For serious bowel cleansing, drink the above combination of clay, psyllium seed powder and alkaline water every two hours with daily colonics for at least 7 to 10 days.

Eat Meat and Die Early! Any Questions?

Eating animal flesh results in strong dietary acids, such as nitric, uric, sulphuric and phosphuric acids leading to the degeneration of body tissues and organs that sustain life.

Red Meat Consumption Increases Risk of Early Death

By Katherine Harmon

March 12, 2012

cut of steakOver the years, eating too many burgers, steaks pork chops or other red meat products has been linked to heart disease, diabetes and some cancers. In particular, processed red meat, such as bacon, hot dogs or bologna, has especially strong links to chronic diseases.

But the latest research brings even more dire news for hardcore carnivores. In addition to increasing the odds people will get sick, red meat—whether it is processed or not—can actually increase the risk of premature death overall, according to a study that was published online March 12 in Archives of Internal Medicine.

Researchers, led by An Pan of the Harvard School of Public Health, analyzed health and diet information from more than 121,000 U.S. men and women participating in two long-term health studies. Everyone in the group the researchers assessed had been free of both heart disease and cancer at the outset of the studies.

Over long-term follow-up, as long as 28 years in some cases, more than 13,900 people died—about 9,460 from cancer and almost 6,000 from cardiovascular disease. After adjusting for other factors, the researchers found each daily serving of red meat (beef, pork, lamb or a processed meat, such as bacon, bologna, hot dog, salami or sausage), increased the risk of a premature death by about 12 percent. Processed meat consumption in particular increased these odds even more than did unprocessed meats. And hot dogs and bacon seemed to be the most likely to lead to an early death.

If everyone in the study had limited themselves to 42 grams or less of red meat a day (considered to be about half a standard serving), more than 9,860 early diet-related deaths could have been prevented in the study alone, the researchers estimated.

So if that lamb and ham are off the table, along with all the all-too familiar beef, many people worry that they might not get enough protein with each meal. Fear not, say many health experts, there are plenty of other ways to put protein on your plate that don’t come with such high risks of chronic diseases. Chicken breasts actually have more grams of protein by weight than a piece of beef, and fish isn’t too far behind. The researchers also found that beans, nuts, low-fat dairy and whole grains made for healthful replacements for a red meat meal portion.

And for folks worried about getting enough iron, excess iron from diet has actually been linked to heart attacks and fatal heart disease as well as possibly to cancer, the researchers noted.

Getting to a healthful level of red meat consumption in the U.S. might be an uphill battle. Only about 9.6 percent of the women and 22.8 percent of the men in the studies fell in the low-risk category (of a half-serving-or-less per day) for red-meat consumption.

But contrary to popular thinking, a good diet is as much about what you put in to your mouth as what you omit.

The study found that trading out a serving of red meat for fish or poultry didn’t just negate the red meat risk; rather, it actually improved people’s odds of living longer. Replacing a serving of red meat each day with fish reduced premature mortality risk by 7 percent; for poultry, the reduction was twice that: 14 percent.

Veggies are even better. “Plant-based foods are rich in phytochemicals, bioflavonoids and other substances that are protective,” wrote whole-food diet advocate Dean Ornish in a related essay also published online Monday in Archives of Internal Medicine. “So substituting healthier foods for red meat provides a double benefit to our health.”

Ornish noted that the focus for a healthful diet should be on high-quality over high-quantity: “smaller portions of good foods are more satisfying than larger portions of junk foods.” In addition, he highlights current research-based suggestions for the healthiest diet:

o Little to no red meat; instead obtain protein from poultry, fish, legumes, nuts or other products

o Plenty of good, whole-food carbohydrates, such as whole grains, beans, fruits and vegetables

o Little processed or refined carbohydrates, such as white flower, sugar or corn syrup

o Some good fats, such as omega three fatty acids that are in flax and fish oils

o Little bad fats, such as hydrogenated, saturated or trans fats

Another benefit to cutting red meat consumption: dialing back out-of-control medical costs, Ornish noted. Avoiding chronic diseases linked to excess red meat consumption could decrease medical spending by billions of dollars.
