Re:Doug Graham's presentation: Distinguishing high-fat foods: Avocado

[Guest guest]

Elachan,

Hello! I appreciate your enthusiasm in answering our

questions. I try to keep my responses simple as I

feel a lot of people are just ovewhelmed by the fact

that they are consuming way too much fat, so I try to

keep it simple, and they " check-out " w/ overly

complicated answers (initially). If someone asks for

more deatiled information....,then I think it is

sometimes wise to keep it in a PM (private email). I

do appreciate your explanations though; although, at

times find your tone rather amusing. As for

primal nutritional program I was actually grabbing

that from a book I read concerning the works of Dr.

Warburg, the Nobel Prize Winner who proved that cancer

thrives in an acidic enviornment. But, the primal

state is when our cells can no longer take in oxygen

to convert glucose into energy. When our cells lack

oxygen they revert to nourishing itself by converting

glucose therough the process of fermentation.

Fermentation produces lactic acid....and produces a

number of other negative reactions of which I am sure

you are already aware, so I won't be redundant and

list them here. My point was that many people have

such a messed up biochemical environment in their body

that their body will take a long while to use their

fuel that nature intended for their body properly. It

is possible, as proven by diabetics who have taken on

a healthy raw lifestyle of fruit and green leafies.

Maybe I have an overly simplistic view of the

bio-chemical/nutritional process, but I am always open

to learning and hearing different views. I find it

refreshing.

As for undernourishment I have to play a careful

balance between what I take in and what I expend

(personally, energy-wise). I am only 5 tall and even

on all fruit raw w/ leafies have a tendency to

overeat, as noted by my weight, which my BMI is in the

healthy range, but IMO the BMI's aren't accurate (as

set by the govt.). But, I find that 2,000 is about my

minimum.

Peace and have a good day.

PS I started reading some of Dr. Warburg's info from

various references on the web and @ the library after

having seen the chapter in Victoria B's " Green For

Life. " In fact, I am pretty sure that is where I read

the terms " primal nutrition. " But, I tend to book hog

@ the library, so I also could have read it from other

references afterwards. Cheers!
