3:28 PM [Rawschool] Cancer, children & NH Philosophy

 

I totally accept the idea that cancer is caused by bad

lifestyles choices and toxicity, but I'm wondering how

is it that children sometimes are diagnosed with

cancer, particularly very young children? It would

seem like a few years wouldn't be enough time for

their little bodies to build up that much toxicity,

even on the typical SAD diet that so many of them are

exposed to. Is it because of poor prenatal (and maybe

even pre-pregnancy) health status' of mothers and an

inheredited weakness and pre-disposition to cancer?

I'm just curious about this.

 

Thanks,

 

Audrey

Hi Audrey and all,

 

GREAT questions. This ground was actually covered by a gentleman named

Pottenger during the 1920s. (I think that's the right timeframe.)

 

Pottenger kept cats for research use, and sometimes he ran out of food. As I

recall, he noticed that cats who ate scraps from garbage cans seemed

healthier than those to whom he fed " professional " grade " cat food. " So he

sort of wandered into what became quite an experiment. He divided his cats

into several groups and fed each group differently, some raw, some cooked,

with a few other variations.

 

Because cats reproduce quickly, in short time cycles, he was able to observe

the effects of the different diets on multiple generations of cats within a

fairly short number of calendar years.

 

The raw food cats were all blazingly healthy, all the time.

 

OTOH, the cooked food cats, in the first and second generations, began

suffering from a whole ranges of " chronic " and " degenerative " diseases (as

the medical profession loves to call them), such as diabetes, cancer of

various types, arthritis, heart problems of various types, etc. By the third

generation, as I recall, the cooked-food cats were experiencing social

breakdown, they found it difficult to function with one another in any sort

of constructive manner. In addition, they began experiencing skyrocketing

homosexuality, infertility, and impotence, all Nature's way of preventing

those cats that were sufficiently biologically weakened from reproducing.

There were significant changes in skeletal structure, particularly pelvic

structure, also shrinkage of the jaw (read: an industry called

" orthodontia " ) and various other changes. And the average lifespan of the

cats began to shrink, understandably.

 

But to address your question directly, what Pottenger further observed is

this: from generation to generation, the cooked food cats experienced the

same " chronic " and " degenerative " diseases about a generation younger. So

" old age " diseases became " middle age conditions " and finally, by the fourth

generation, as I recall, " childhood diseases. " In other words, there was

some combination of genetic backsliding with vastly impaired maternal

feeding, both in utero and during nursing, such that the overall effects

were disastrous.

 

A note of hope: Pottenger then took one group of devastated cats and began

feeding them a high-quality, RF diet. And within a few generations, all the

" chronic " and " degenerative " diseases had disappeared, all the structural

anomalies had returned to normal, etc.

 

Modern science is at war with Nature. This is, to borrow a phrase from Mr.

Reagan, a war " that can never be won and should never be fought. " But almost

100% of the resources of present-day research in biology, " health science, "

and so forth are spent waging precisely such a war.

 

The mission of science should be, and once was, to study Nature in order to

live in harmony with Nature. But now, it is to study Nature in order to

control Nature. And Nature will not be controlled.

 

Best to all,

Elchanan
