Guest guest Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Hi Everyone, I was reading some material from http://health.PathOfHealth/ about supplements. Bob Farrell posted this very useful information to the group some time ago. It further explains why foods like garlic, onions, pepper, coffee, etc. are enervating to the body. Enjoy, Janet The Law of Stimulation... which was reprinted from Lesson Four, " Decision for Health, " SUPERIOR LIFE MANAGEMENT by Drs. Robert and Elizabeth McCarter, 1980. Bionomics Health Research Institute, Tucson, AZ. … " We call anything which causes this increased action on the part of the body, a Stimulant " . Of course, the immediate effect of the stimulant is that which is most evident, that the stimulant is working and doing " good " . This feeling of well-being is only temporary, however, since while the stimulant appear to do good, it is actually doing harm, the extent of the harm done dependent upon, and in a precise ratio to, the amount of power called into play to produce the accelerated response, the feeling of well-being, of euphoria. This is the Law of Stimulation. It reveals the physiological consequences of false deception. It pertains to all stimulants: drugs (vitamins, etc.), coffee, tea, cocoa, alcohol, nicotine, ...the effect of many of these stimulants being extremely exciting; and also to lesser ones such as the various herbs, onions, garlic and the like. All appear to do good, but all perform a disservice to the body in that they do lasting harm, the harm being due to the fact that they reach into the body's energy reserves to accomplish the good they appear to do and offer nothing in return which is of lasting value. Their efforts are cumulative and remain with the person who employs them. The sense of euphoria occasioned by their use is always followed, in time, by a depression due to the expenditure of power required, as we have seen, to bring about the exhilaration in the first instance. Certain stimulants are said to 'act' on certain parts of the body as, for example, digitalis is said to 'act' on the heart. The exact opposite is true. In this case, the heart is already weak and the digitalis only serves to weaken it further. All stimulants are useless to the body. They cannot become part of the body; they cannot be turned into blood, flesh, or bone. They present an encumbrance to body action and, for this reason, a threat to efficiency and a hindrance to perfection. " " ...The constant use of coffee, drugs, vitamins, even herbs, will slowly, or rapidly, destroy the essence of life as they are used and according to the inherited constitution of the user. " " ..sleep restores the energy bank " " Herbert M. Shelton states the Law of Stimulation as follows: 'Under all circumstances, vitality of energy of any character whatever is invariably manifested or noticed by us, as energy, in it expenditure, never in its accumulation. " This lesson was helpful to me in better understanding any supplements/stimulations, and how their effects are exactly opposite from what they seem!! And, I hope some of these extractions provide some insight to others. All the best, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
