Emphasis on what we DON'T eat (WAS: My Take on Elchanan (Mark Strong)

[Guest guest]

Hi Mark,

 

Thanks for sharing your feelings, for providing an accurate subject line

:), and particularly for this:

___

To me it is all becoming simple (finally). My thought is that health is 20%

what you eat and 80% what you DON'T eat. You can eat all the nutrient

dense, organic, non-GMO stuff you want. You can be one of the colon

cleaning people. You can take all the supplements you like. HOWEVER if the

walls of your arteries are coated with crap then none of the good stuff or

oxygen can make it to your organs and they will become diseased in order of

their weakness in your particular body.

___

 

I could not agree more ... what we stop eating contributes far more, in may

respects, than what start eating. In fact, if we simply stop eating for

awhile (a.k.a., fasting), we cleanse and rebuild in remarkable ways and at a

remarkable rate.

 

Best,

Elchanan

Re: Elchanan

 

I agree with much and disagree with some, as do most of us.

 

The guy doesn't seem to be motivated by self promotion or trying to get you

to sell the latest multi level crap. He seems motivated to share what he

believes, which seems mostly grounded in common sense.

 

Doing so takes TIME with no personal reward other than helping others on the

way. To ALL that spend their time helping newbies and others trying to sort

it all out, THANK YOU.

So, (IMHO) job #1 is to not eat things that coat your arteries (animal

products, DAIRY and oils). Make sure you maintain a circulatory system

where blood, oxygen, nutrients can actually get where they need to go and

used stuff can return to where it needs to go. This is the 80% of what is

important (what you are NOT eating). Only then does what you are eating

matter, because now it can get where it needs to go and make a difference.
