Hi Janet,

 

I'm going back over some posts and found this one from you. Brilliant! Love

that last paragraph, in particular.

 

Best,

Neal,

 

It appears you just reiterated what Elchanan wrote about the body recoiling

from the effects of garlic. Please clarify if this was not your intention.

 

Pharmaceuticals will create the same kind of responses, naturally occurring,

or not. A particular symptom may disappear from the use of medicine, but

the body must either store or eliminate the foreign substance. Oftentimes,

other symptoms present themselves, and these are known as " side-effects. "

 

The question to be asked is whether a food can be used by the body for

nourishment, or whether it creates enervating responses. Since garlic is

immediately excreted, the proof is in the armpit and the breath!

 

I think it was Dr. Herbert Shelton that said (correct me if I'm wrong) " The

laws of Nature cannot be broken, they can only be demonstrated. " So,

bypassing the body's natural processes and causing unnatural responses is

really just a play on words. The body has no unnatural responses to

anything. It doesn't matter if that substance is naturally occurring, or

not.

 

Hope this makes sense,

 

Janet
