Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 The Seven Most Harmful Substances White Fat- The average American adds over 50 pounds of fat (cholesterol) to his or her body each year! This fat clogs the arteries, which ultimately causes heart attacks and strokes that will kill approximately 50 percent of our population. Animal protein is the culprit in colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, and numerous other forms of cancer as well. Cancer is responsible for 33 percent of American deaths and meat is the primary cause of adult-onset diabetes, which kills 9 percent of our population. Meat also causes gout, arthritis, and a host of other physical problems. We are told that we need meat for protein and strength. However, we are not told that the cooking of meat changes the molecular structure of the protein and renders the protein in meat unusable by the body. If we look to nature, we will find that there is not a single animal in the wild that cooks the flesh it eats! More than twenty-five years of research has revealed meat, as it is produced today, to be the single most dangerous food that we put into our body. White Salt- .. . . is another substance that creates untold physical problems and suffering. The body needs sodium, but it must be in an organic form (seasalt)in order to be usable by the body. Table salt, sodium chloride, is an inorganic sodium compound formed by the union of sodium and chlorine that is extremely toxic to the body. This toxicity causes the body to retain fluid in an effort to keep this protoplasmic poison in suspension and out of the cells. Refined White Sugar- .... is the fourth white substance creating our physical problems. Sugar is so changed and concentrated from its original plant form that it is actually a drug! Just 10 teaspoons (approximately the amount found in one soft drink) will immobilize the immune system by about 33 percent. It takes only 30 teaspoons of sugar to shut down the immune system for the whole day. White Flour - .... has had all the good substances (bran and germ) removed during processing. Then it is bleached, with a bleaching agent similar to Clorox. Finally, some coal-tar-derived (carcinogenic) vitamins are added, and it is sold to the unsuspecting public as " enriched. " White Dairy- .. . . is the second most dangerous substance we can put into our bodies for many of the same reasons. We are told milk is the perfect food and needed for calcium. But we are not told that the pasteurizing of milk (heating it to temperatures of 160 degrees or higher) changes the calcium to an inorganic form, which cannot be assimilated by the body. In nature no animal pasteurizes its milk . . . and no animal drinks the milk of another species, nor does it ever drink milk after the age of weaning. One of the main sourcesof bad cholesterol (LDL) is Dairy.Everything you currently know about cow's milk and dairy is probably part of a Dairy industry MYTH. Basic Concerns: Cow's milk has 59 active hormones, scores of allergens, fat and cholesterol. cow's milk has measurable quantities of herbicides, pesticides, dioxin's (up to 2,200 times the safe levels), up to 52 powerful antibiotics, bacteria and viruses. Cancer " Fuel " - Of the 59 hormones present in milk, one is a powerful GROWTH hormone called Insulin- like Growth Factor ONE (IGF-1). By a freak of nature it is identical between cows and humans. Consider this hormone to be a " fuel cell " for any cancer... (the medical world says IGF-1 is a key factor in the rapid growth and proliferation of breast, prostate and colon cancers, and we suspect that most likely it will be found to promote ALL cancers). Monsanto's Posilac creates additional IGF-1 in milk: up to 80% more. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) insists that IGF-1 is destroyed in the stomach. If that were true, the FDA has proven that breast feeding doesn't 'work'. Common sense says their " finding " is ridiculous because this growth factor makesthe baby calf grow (rapidly, as mother natured intended). Perhaps the 54% of Americans who are 'obese' need to comprehend that milk, ice cream, cheeses, yogurts, and all the OTHER products that use milk derivatives (casein, whey, lactose, colostrum) are most likely a significant cause of their weight and health problems. Calcium? Where do the COWS get calcium for their big bones? Yes..from plants! The calcium they consume from plants has a large amount of magnesium...which is necessary for the body to absorb and USE calcium. The calcium in cow's milk is basically 'useless' because it has insufficient magnesium content. The wholesome protein myth: 87% of milk is water. That makes it VERY expensive water. Broken down into its basic groups... 80% of the protein in milk is casein. Casein is a powerful allergen... a histamine that creates lots of mucus. The only medicine in Olympic athlete Flo-Jo's body was Benedryl, a power antihistamine she took to combat her last meal... pizza. Cholesterol The cholesterol content of those three glasses of milk is equal to what one would get from 53 slices of bacon. Do you know of any doctor who recommends that much bacon per day? Kosher Is cow's milk and dairy " Kosher " ? Consider this: " D-3 always is derived from an animal. The sunlight reaction that converts 7-dehydrocholesterol to vitamin D-3 is a 'pure' chemical reaction that occurs in your skin in certain cells. " " The provitamin known as 7-dehydrocholesterol is extracted and isolated from the skins of mammals and purified. " (Marian Herbert of the Vitamin D Workshop U of C) Vitamin D-3 can come from four different sources: Pig skin, sheep skin, raw fish liver, and pig brains. Most of the time, Vitamin D-3 is extracted from pig skin and sold to dairy processors. Short answer to " is milk kosher " - probably not. Leukemia -Sixty Percent of America's dairy cows have leukemia virus. Diabetes -The protein lactalbumin, has been identified as a key factor in diabetes (and a major reason for NOT giving cows milk to infants). Crohn's Disease -Mycobacterium paratuberculosis causes a bovine disease called " Johne's. " Cows diagnosed with Johne's Disease have diarrhea, and heavy fecal shedding of bacteria. This bacteria becomes cultured in milk, and is not destroyed by pasteurization. Occasionally the milk-borne bacteria begins to grow in the human host, and irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn's results. Those who resist believing the truth should understand that MOST of the world's population CANNOT tolerate the lactose in cow's milk. Up to 95% of the black population, around 53% of the Hispanics, etc.) Mother nature knows better. Q: What happens to the: 59 hormones -Scores of allergens herbicides, pesticides, dioxin's -up to 52 antibiotics when made into cheese? A. Everything gets concentrated. in the digestive system? Steroid hormones survive, as do dioxin's and antibiotics. In homogenized milk, protein hormones survive... depending upon the gastric pH, some protein hormones in cheese survive, but not all... eleven steroid hormones survive. what happens next? Eventually, everything is broken down, but not before the chemical messengers (59 artificial hormones) " deliver their message. " Each of those hormones and proteins acts differently and has different rates of degradation. BOTTOM LINE... they all survive to a certain degree... and the effects are cumulative. Other substances in cow's milk: whey: Blood proteins. Bovine serum lactalbumen has been identified as a trigger for diabetes and other autoimmune diseases. lactose: Two sugars. Glucose and galactose. Galactose has been indentified as a trigger for glaucoma. There are several columns that cover lactose (covering galactose and galactosemia): Quote: " It's not natural for humans to drink cow's milk. Humans milk is for humans. Cow's milk is for calves. You have no more need of cow's milk than you do horses milk or elephant's milk. Cow's milk is a high fat fluid exquisitely designed to turn a 65 lb baby calf into a 400 lb cow. That's what cow's milk is for! " Dr Michael Klaper MD White Drugs- In addition to these five white substances, we must also consider the impact of sythetic drugs on our bodies.Many people are aware of how dangerous alcohol and nicotine are to the body, but they fail to realize that the caffeine in coffee, tea, and soft drinks is also an extremely dangerous substance. Caffeine is called a stimulant because it excites all of the nerve endings in an effort to rid the body of this poisonous substance. If a person drinks over two or three cups of coffee a day on a regular basis, they will usually develop severe drug withdrawal headaches if they suddenly stop drinking it. Alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine are dangerous drugs. So What is genetic engineering or biotechnology? Genetic engineering or genetic modification (sometimes called new biotechnology) overcomes the limitations of traditional breeding because it allows for the transfer of a single genetic trait - rather than thousands as in traditional breeding - in a direct, predictable, and controllable (??) manner. It also allows for the transfer of genes from one species or genus to another, which is another difference from traditional breeding. rBGH is a genetically modified substance (hormone) present in white milk and other dairy products.The government of Canada banned rBGH in early 1999. The European Union (EU) has had a ban in place since 1994. Although rBGH continues to be injected into US dairy cows, no other industrialized country has legalized its use. The GATT Codex Alimentarius, a United Nations food standards body, has refused to certify that rBGH is safe. _________________ JoAnn Guest mrsjoguest DietaryTipsForHBP http://www.geocities.com/mrsjoguest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
