When we are newly born, we naturally respond to good nutrition and love; we feel energized and supported, and consequently grow. But when the receptors in our bodies perceive toxins or chemicals from emotions that cause fear, we go into protection mode; we retreat and stop growing. Our bodies mobilize for protection using what is known as the hpa axis, or Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis.3 They perceive threats via the hypothalamus, which sends a message to the master gland, the pituitary, which then signals the adrenal glands to release the stress hormone adrenaline. |

If you have good nutrition and you avoid exposure to environmental chemicals, then you won't express a disease even if you have the so-called gene that has been linked to it. These aren't genetic disorders -- there isn't some mysterious physical problem that can be corrected with surgery. There certainly isn't a disease caused by lack of pharmaceuticals, so treating them with drugs is ridiculous. Most neurological disorders are caused by nutritional deficiencies combined with exposure to environmental toxins. |

| VITAMIN C: good nutrition WHILE USING NSAIDS
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an antioxidant vitamin that also happens to be a building block of collagen. Collagen is the material the body uses to build connective tissue, including skin, blood vessel walls, gums, bone, teeth, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. Depletion of vitamin C could partially explain why NSAIDs cause cartilage to break down. This vitamin "activates" folic acid and is a part of the process of building neurotransmitters and steroid hormones.
The highest concentrations of vitamin C in the body are in the adrenal glands. |
| Both AIDS and the medicines used to treat it can cause loss of appetite, mouth sores, diarrhea, and nausea, and can interfere with good nutrition. People who live with HIV/AIDS have to be extremely careful to avoid food-borne "bugs" that a healthy immune system could handle, but that their reduced defenses can't stamp out.
Action: The HIV virus destroys cells that belong to the immune system. Both classes of drugs inhibit reverse transcriptase, the enzyme that HIV needs in order to replicate itself. |

Wysong, DVM, states that because the entire fish is not used for most commercial pet foods, it does not contain many of the fat soluble vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids necessary for good nutrition. When the entire fish is used for commercial pet food, oftentimes it is because the fish contains a high level of mercury or other toxin making it unfit for human consumption. Tuna is used in many cat foods because of its strong odor, which many cats find irresistible. |

With good nutrition and avoidance of cancer-causing chemicals, we could eliminate around 90 percent of the cancer in modern nations. Doctors are not taught nutrition in medical school. They actually graduate from medical school as nutritionally ignorant practitioners of medicine. How can you claim to practice medicine when you don't understand the relationship between food and health?
Some doctors are so clueless about it that they don't believe such a relationship even exists. |

| And the small amount of good nutrition in those foods automatically gets nullified by the acid they produce and the bad fat they contain. Saturated fat reduces your kidneys' ability to dump acid; the salt leads to urinating extra potassium, magnesium, and calcium.
If you're still dead set on the idea of eating lots of salt, cheese, pasta, cereal, and bread, keep in mind that for good health, you'll have to increase your fruit and vegetable intake by twenty servings! You'd better be hungry because you'll need a cow-size stomach to take in that much food. |

Most pet health conditions can be easily prevented or cured with good nutrition, and more challenging health problems can be cheaply and safely solved with herbal therapies and other naturopathic modalities. There is no scientifically justifiable role in veterinary medicine for the majority of the pharmaceuticals now being pushed onto vets, vet techs, and pet owners.
Even the pet shelters are being influenced by Big Pharma. When I rescued my pet from a local animal shelter, I was given a DVD sponsored by a drug company. |

If it's from healthy cows treated with kindness and good nutrition, this raw beverage is far better than processed cow's milk.
Row goat's milk (organic): Even better than raw cow's milk, since the goat's milk is easier to digest and more compatible with human nutritional needs.
Fermented milk from cows or goats (organic Kefir): A great choice! It's alive, nutritious and great for digestive health. Make it yourself for best results. If you buy it, avoid the sugared-up kefir products in the store.
Raw almond milk: A top choice for vegans, one of my favorite beverages. |
