Enzyme Nonsense

[Guest guest]

OK, once again, bad science and nonsense is continually parotted.

That still doesn't make it so.

 

Once again Elchanan speaks what is actually so.

 

Before debating further, read this:

YES, that guy has an agenda too, one I don't agree with, BUT this

section is on the money.

 

Basically enzymes don't survive cooking, but they don't survive

swallowing either, they are protiens, your body makes the enzymes it

needs, additional ones are not required for anything. They have NO

biological or chemical activity in your body, NONE. ZERO.

 

I eat mostly raw. Why? The less processed the food the better, NOT

that raw is better, just as it gets further processed more bad stuff

is added like fats, salt, sugars, etc. So what is the main benefit

of raw? FIBER, yes, it's that simple. Repeatable experimantation

shows the following and you can easilly observe it yourself:

 

Eat mostly raw, time to eliminate, what happens? You easily and

quickly eliminate a pile that looks like it came from an elephant.

Your " business " takes maybe 20 seconds, no food left hanging around

to slow you down or sap your energy.

 

Eat mostly cooked, processed, meat/dairy and what happens?

Elimination takes longer, with more effort and you get a pile that

looks like it came from a poodle.

 

As far as colonics and all that nonsense, eat much fiber (raw) and it

is similar to eating scotchbrite pads, all internal plumbing nicely

scrubbed, eat low amounts of raw and not so much.

 

STOP trying to make this brain surgery. Eat the highest possible

nutrient density and fiber per calorie (a mostly raw plant based

diet) and enjoy the fewest health problems. It's just that simple.

You don't need the latest goji this, hemp that, baby coconut, special

juice and other multi-level products. You don't need products, you

need plants, watch your B12, D3, DHEA in response to regular blood

testing. See veghealth.com for good vitamin coverage.

 

Remember much of our food is grown in depleted soil or sand and

doesn't have the nutritional profile it should. See EWG.ORG for

great info on what you should buy organic and what doesn't matter so

much.

 

Turn the focus to making a mostly raw plant diet, interesting,

appealing, tasty and something you religiously stick to. It saved my

life and made serious health problems go away, but don't over analyze

it or romaticise it. Eat low on the totem pole like the China study

and heartattackproof.com suggests and live longer. That's about it.

 

You don't need to " understand " it in order to get started and do it.
