Rosacea

Rosacea shows up as a rash, similar to other rashes/breakouts that causes an area of red, sensitive, and inflamed skin. It is a very visible sign of inflammatory issues going on within the body.

Things to avoid:

1. Sugar

2. Avoid hot, spicy foods.

3. Coffee

4. Chocolate

5. Caffeinated Foods

6. Processed Foods

7. Fried Foods,

8. Trans Fats and Hydrogenated Oils

All these foods tend to worsen symptoms.

Anti-inflammatory foods and herbs — Turmeric, ginger, garlic, onions, cruciferous vegetables (like broccoli, cabbage, collard greens, etc.), and carrots. Fruit that can help is tomatoes, but ALL can all help specifically combat skin inflammation, according to studies.

Some of the best essential oils and supplement rosacea treatments for reducing skin inflammation include:

• Turmeric
• Ginger
• Aloe Vera gel (used topically on the skin)
• Honey (used topically on the skin)
• Essential oils: Tea Tree, Lavender, Eucalyptus, Geranium, Chamomile, Rose, Rosemary and Thyme essential oils have all been found to fight skin inflammation and help treat sensitive skin. To treat the area, simply rub three drops of oil three times daily mixed with 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil. Always combine these with a carrier oil (including coconut or olive oil) and apply to the affected area no more than twice daily. Perform a skin patch test first and then start gradually to test results, making sure you don’t experience an allergic reaction.
• Colloidal Silver

Herbs to consider for decreasing rosacea flare-ups include:  Gentian Root and Burdock Root.

Lavender

Lavender is an extremely soothing home remedy for rosacea. First, Lavender is a natural antiseptic. This makes it an excellent tool for reducing bacteria that may further inflame the skin. Rosacea can be itchy, and scratches can get infected if not properly cared for. In addition, lavender has anti-inflammatory properties, which makes it very valuable in reducing redness and swelling. Essential oils can be used for this but should be diluted or used with caution to avoid a severe skin reaction. To use, apply two drops in the palm of your hand and apply to the affected area. If you feel burning, rub on olive oil.

Aloe Vera

The gel that comes from Aloe Vera plants is both soothing and cooling, making it a perfect remedy for rosacea.

Aloe Vera has anti-inflammatory properties and can help to calm irritated skin without any harsh side effects. If you have any Aloe Vera plant, you can simply break open a leaf and apply a thin layer of gel twice per day. Drugstores also sell bottles of Aloe Vera but be careful to get one that is not combined with other chemicals, which can harm the face. If you prefer you can drink two tablespoons of Aloe Vera juice each day for another effective remedy.

Flaxseed

Flaxseed is often forgotten when it comes to home remedies, but it is an excellent source of important nutrients. This includes Omega-3 fatty acids, which can nourish and heal inflamed skin. Flaxseed is also a natural anti-inflammatory agent, which is very beneficial for rosacea.

You can purchase flaxseed oil at most drugstores. Unlike many other remedies, flaxseed oil is not applied directly to the face. Instead, swallowing a teaspoon a day can help to reduce redness long-term.

Oatmeal

The soothing qualities of oatmeal can reduce drying and itching, which can give your skin the chance to heal. Even if you know better, it is still tempting to scratch itchy patches of skin. Oatmeal reduces that temptation with its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Many experts recommend oatmeal baths for people with eczema, chicken pox, and other itchy conditions for this very reason.

To use, cook natural oats and allow to cool, then apply a thin mask to the face for 20 minutes before rinsing off with cool water. This should be done twice daily. Over time, it will reduce redness and decrease inflammation.

Cucumber

Cucumber is a naturally cooling remedy. These fruits are packed with nutrients and are very water-rich, making them a good choice when you want to reduce redness and swelling. In addition to being cooling, cucumbers also have anti-inflammatory properties. The best way to use cucumbers is to cut them up into thin slices and apply to the affected area. Doing this for 20 minutes every day will help to moisturize and heal the area, as well.

Honey

Honey (be sure to get the good kind which can be found at Trader Joe’s, a local honey farm, or a farmer’s market) is a versatile home remedy, and rosacea is no exception to its many uses. Apply a thin layer to the face. Leave this on for 15 minutes before washing off with cool water. Honey is loaded with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant nutrients, which will help to heal your face and reduce the visible signs of rosacea. Do not use processed honey, which may exacerbate symptoms or cause additional rashes.

Chamomile

Like green tea, chamomile tea is very soothing. It is another anti-inflammatory drink and can help to improve your overall health. Drinking two cups of freshly brewed chamomile tea each day is a good way to decrease inflammation and facial redness. It is also known to be calming, and stress can trigger rosacea outbreaks. Chamomile can also be applied directly to the face. Soak tea bags in cool water and apply directly to the problem areas twice daily. This will allow the anti-inflammatory properties to be absorbed directly by the skin, decreasing the recovery time. Tea is a better long-term solution for control, whereas tea bag compresses can help to manage outbreaks.

Natural Remedies for Rosacea…

Rosehip Seed Oil:

Rosehip seed oil strengthens damaged capillaries and soothes and reduces redness of the skin due to its astringent qualities. It works very well on rosacea and can be bought online or from most health food stores.

Feverfew:

The feverfew herb is primarily used as an anti-inflammatory treatment for severe acne, but it can also be used for rosacea. This is another one you will need to try out for at least a period of several months. And it’s not actually a topical remedy either. You buy the herb in capsule form and follow the directions on the bottle.

Tea Tree Oil:

Tea tree oil is one of the most potent antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory treatments for rosacea going around. However, tea tree oil can cause mild adverse reactions in some people and make their rosacea worse so you should use this remedy with caution. If it does work for you great. If it doesn’t work or makes your skin worse, get rid of it and try something else.

Olive Leaf Extract (Internal):

Olive leaf extract (OLE) is one of the most powerful cleansers and detoxifiers on the planet. If you have an auto-immune disease such as rosacea (new research is showing that rosacea is auto-immune related) you will definitely have a build-up of pathogens and protozoa’s (hidden viruses, fungi, worms, etc.) in your body. Supplementing with OLE will get rid of these harmful invaders quickly and give your body the necessary “clean out” it needs. In fact, the first benefit you'll notice from taking olive leaf extract is a substantial increase in energy after only a few short weeks!

Olive leaf extract also gives the immune system a very powerful boost, which is something every rosacea sufferer needs. The one thing that everyone agrees on when it comes to rosacea is that it’s an inflammation disorder - and it’s a known fact that low immunity causes inflammation. So, it makes sense that boosting your immune system and getting it back up to the “full” mark is going to help get rid of all inflammation in your body. This is something that's considered common knowledge within the natural health field, which is why boosting your immune system is one of the very first things you should do for other inflammation type disorders (auto-immune diseases) such as osteoarthritis and psoriasis. 

HOW MUCH OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT DO YOU NEED TO TREAT ROSACEA?

Olive leaf extract comes in a variety of different potencies. We suggest you stick with the superior "super strength" varieties and avoid the weaker and cheaper brands as these are nowhere near strong enough. Make sure the brand you purchase has an Oleuropein extract content of at least 25% (250 mgs of pure oleuropein). Oleuropein is the main substance in OLE that gives it its potency, so stronger is definitely better!

As far as dosages go, take at least the highest recommended amount listed on the bottle before food for the first 10 weeks, then drop back to the maintenance dose (lowest recommended dose) after that. Olive leaf extract is very safe so there's no harm in taking it this way. For some people though, they can feel a bit queasy after taking OLE and can even suffer "flue like" symptoms during the first week or two of supplementing with this food (a detoxing phenomenon known as herxheimer's reaction... Herxheimer's Reaction and What to Expect).

So, if this happens to you, simply drop down to the lowest recommended dose listed on the bottle and then slowly increase the amount again over a period of several days or weeks. Once you are at the highest recommended amount, stay on this for 10 weeks before dropping back to the maintenance dose. 

Keep in mind that you will need to take the olive leaf extract without fail every day for at least 6 months. This is required to give your body enough time to completely cleanse itself of all parasites and carry out a full detox. After this, you can either stay on the maintenance dose indefinitely (the preferred option) or switch to a 3 month on 3 month off cycle - meaning, you take the OLE for 3 months then rest for 3 months then on again for 3 months then rest again for 3 months, and so forth.

GREEN FOODS (Internal and External):

Wheat grass, barley grass, chlorella and spirulina are all true marvels of nature. These stunning green foods contain some potent antioxidants, along with big amounts of the essential nutrients and co-factors our bodies need every day. They also contain rich amounts of chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants. Chlorophyll is known as a “blood builder” and has a similar molecular structure to hemoglobin, the substance that carries oxygen to the cells. Chlorophyll regenerates our bodies at the cellular level, where all of life is built and maintained. When you ingest chlorophyll rich foods such as the four just mentioned, the first benefit you’ll notice is a huge boost in energy. This is a powerful sign that your body is actually starting to work properly!

Chlorophyll is also a strong anti-inflammatory and has been shown in multiple studies to lessen inflammation within the body. Because rosacea is an inflammatory condition, chlorophyll helps tremendously with this condition. Another side benefit of chlorophyll is it helps to fight off candida and promotes the growth of friendly bacteria.

Rosacea sufferers are also known to be deficient in the B group vitamins, especially riboflavin. In fact, a riboflavin deficiency is thought to be one of the major causes of rosacea as this nutrient is required for healthy capillaries and normal blood flow. Thankfully, all these green foods are rich in B vitamins, and in particular… riboflavin!

Some foods high in Riboflavin:

Spinach, Almonds (and other nuts), Sesame Seeds, Dates, Fenugreek, Avocados, Romaine Lettuce, and Quinoa.

I highly recommend going on the ‘Simple Two Month Program” as it involves a cleanse and other things to get well. If you need info on this contact me.

RED BULL = SLOW DEATH

France & Denmark have banned it from their country.

RED BULL – slow death...
        RED BULL – slow death...

                RED BULL – slow death...

DO NOT DRINK THIS DRINK ANYMORE!! 

This drink is SOLD in all the supermarkets IN OUR country and our children ARE CONSUMING IT ON A TRIAL BASIS, IT can be mortal.

RED BULL was created to stimulate the brains in people who are subjected to great physical force and in stress coma and never to be consumed like an innocent drink or soda pop.

RED BULL IS the energizer DRINK that is commercialized world-wide with its slogan: 'It increases endurance; awakens the concentration capacity and the speed of reaction, offers more energy and improves the mood. All this can be found in a can of RED BULL, the power drink of the millennium!

RED BULL has managed to arrive at almost 100 countries worldwide. The RED BULL logo is targeted at young people and sportsmen, two attractive segments that have been captivated by the stimulus that the drink provides.

It was created by Dietrich Mateschitz, an industrialist of Austrian origin who discovered the drink by chance. It happened during a business trip to Hong Kong, when he was working at a factory that manufactured toothbrushes.

The liquid, based on a formula that contained caffeine and taurine, caused a rage in that country. Imagine the grand success of this drink in Europe where the product still did not exist, besides it was a superb opportunity to become an entrepreneur.

BUT THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS DRINK IS ANOTHER THING…

FRANCE and DENMARK have just prohibited it as a cocktail of death, due to its vitamin components mixed with GLUCURONOLACTONE', a highly dangerous chemical, which was developed by the United States Department of Defense during the sixties to stimulate the moral of the troops based in VIETNAM, which acted like a hallucinogenic drug that calmed the stress of the war.

But their effects in the organism were so devastating, that it was discontinued, because of the high index of cases of migraines, cerebral tumors and diseases of the liver that was evident in the soldiers who consumed it.

And in spite of it, in the can of RED BULL you can still find as one of its components: GLUCURONOLACTONE, categorized medically as a stimulant.

But what it does not say on the can of, RED BULL are the consequences of its consumption, and that has forced us to place a series of WARNINGS:

1. It is dangerous to take it if you do not engage in physical exercise afterwards, since its energizing function accelerates the heart rate and can cause a sudden attack.

2. You run the risk of undergoing a cerebral hemorrhage, because RED BULL contains components that dilute the blood so that the heart utilizes less energy to pump the blood, and thus be able to deliver physical force with less effort being exerted.

3. It is prohibited to mix RED BULL with alcohol, because the mixture turns the drink into a “Deadly Bomb” that attacks the liver directly, causing the affected area never to regenerate anymore.

4. One of the main components of RED BULL is the B12 vitamin, used in medicine to recover patients who are in a coma; from here the hypertension and the state of excitement which is experienced after taking it, as if you were in a drunken state.

5. The regular consumption of RED BULL triggers off symptoms in the form of a series of irreversible nervous and neuronal diseases.

CONCLUSION: It is a drink that should be prohibited in the entire world as when it is mixed with alcohol it creates a TIME BOMB for the human body, mainly between innocent adolescents and adults with little experience.

Rebounding

There are 4 PHYSIOLOGICAL BENEFITS of rebounding!

• Strengthens the core
• Muscle toning
• Low impact
• Great cardio 

Heels in and out.

Legs spread-Shift weight left and right.

You only have to rebound for one minute in the morning to get that lymphatic system activated for the whole day and once that lymphatic system is activated every movement you make just scratching your head turning around it's keeping the movement going so this again is called the health bands.

Some people say I’m not going to get on the rebounder because you know I’m out of balance well guess.

How do you get into balance? By rebounding! If you're not used to this at first you might be a little unstable but the more you do it you will notice you will get your balance your balance is set by the bottom of your feet and by the fine mechanisms in your ear and so rebounding resets those fine mechanisms in your ear and resets the the soles of your feet.

If you jump with your with your palms down as you jump that strengthens the bicep muscle.

Put your palms up and that strengthens your tricep muscles.

Often, I will twist as I do it so I twist like this and that that helps with the spine.

YOU CAN ALSO STRENGTHEN YOUR EYESIGHT

How do you strengthen your eyesight?

right now, looking out that door there i will focus on that tree. I’ll focus my eyes on the leaves of the tree and so when I’m doing it the tree is standing still but the big trees in the background are jumping and that

lamps jumping so what I’ll do now after 10 jumps I’ll focus on that lamp and I’ll keep that lamp still and the leaves that were still before are now jumping in the peripheral can you see what you do you keep changing your focus and that strengthens your eyesight.

The current figures are saying that three minutes three times a day is enough now that's hardly anything.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yIXOToHqUo

 

Your 2^nd heart is your calf muscles.

When you've been on the rebounder those calf muscles they're constantly working so

Your second heart is getting those blood back that's why rebounding is so effective.

For varicose veins you don't get you don't get varicose arteries do you get varicose veins.

Some people say I’m not going to get on the rebounder because you know I’m out of balance well guess

Raw or Cooked Vegetables?

“In the study of hygiene, students should be taught the nutrient value of different foods. The effect of a concentrated and stimulating diet, also of foods deficient in the elements of nutrition, should be made plain. Tea and coffee, fine-flour bread, pickles, COARSE VEGETABLES, candies, condiments, and pastries FAIL OF SUPPLYING PROPER NUTRIMENT. Many a student has broken down as the result of using such foods. Many a puny child, incapable of vigorous effort of mind or body, is the victim of an impoverished diet. Grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables, in proper combination, contain all the elements of nutrition; and WHEN PROPERLY PREPARED they constitute the diet that best promotes both physical and mental strength.” {Ed 204.3}

Once again, Medical Science confirms that which was written over 100+ years ago in the spirit of prophecy.

http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=raw-veggies-are-healthier

Coarse Vegetables should be cooked and not eaten raw.

“There are those who try to abstain from what is declared to be harmful. They fail to supply the system with proper nourishment, and as a consequence become weak and unable to work. Thus, health reform is brought to disrepute. The work we have tried to build up solidly is confused with STRANGE THINGS THAT GOD HAS NOT REQUIRED. The energies of the church are crippled.” {CD 206.2}

“Others, who have the same opportunities of learning to live healthfully and well, have hardly taken the first steps in reform. They will tell you that they do not know how to cook in this new way. But they are without excuse in this matter of cooking; for in the work, ‘How To Live’, are many excellent recipes, and this work is within the reach of all... ‘How To Live’ teaches cookery almost infinitely in advance of what the traveler will often meet, even among some Seventh-day Adventists...”  (1T 680.2)

HOW TO LIVE:

https://present-truth.org/07-Health-Secrets-Sem/SOP/HOW%20TO%20LIVE.pdf?fbclid=IwAR0fsw4HJdp7FkDRpPDO282nyXPX8-o02BY6LhBd_akLWNXEKHaFKCA6fe0

Go to pages 31-33 to see how vegetables are to be cooked.

I know there's a lot of hoopla with the raw diet, raw juicing, etc. & eating all these veggies raw, but Medical Science is now finding that these raw steal iodine from the body. God wants us to speak the same things. He doesn't want some of saying we should eat these raw and others saying we should cook them. He wants us to read the books given to us and then speak the same things & be of the same mind.

“He will not use individuals of different faith, opinions, and views, to scatter and divide... Jesus designed that the faith of his people should be one. If one goes forth preaching one thing, and another differing with him preaches something else, how can those who believe through their word be one? There will be difference of sentiments.” {1T 326.2}

 

Coarse = rough...hard to chew....these veggies should be tender, not crunchy

Carrots, Beets, Broccoli, Cabbage, Greens, Asparagus, Cauliflower, etc.

Raw Vegetables

DO NOT EAT VEGETABLES RAW: (Cook till tender)

AGAIN...
“In the study of hygiene, students should be taught the nutrient value of different foods. The effect of a concentrated and stimulating diet, also of foods deficient in the elements of nutrition, should be made plain. Tea and coffee, fine-flour bread, pickles, COARSE VEGETABLES, candies, condiments, and pastries fail of supplying proper nutriment. Many a student has broken down as the result of using such foods…”  (Ed 204.3)

RAW VEGETABLES STEALS IODINE FROM THE BODY AND THE ENZYME IS NOT RELEASED FOR PROPER MINERAL ABSORPTION.

“Albumen of vegetable origin is better when cooked...”  {May 7, 1903 EJW PTUK 301.8}

“A Scotchman is launching a new form of vegetarianism in Paris. Its members eat and drink nothing but uncooked vegetable foods and natural liquids.”  {June 21, 1894 EJW, PTUK 398.13}

***Notice how in 1894, some Scotchman came up with the raw diet in food and drink.  THIS DID NOT COME FROM ADVENTISTS.  If this was the diet for us, God would have given Ellen White that counsel in 1863 when he gave her the health message.

Some people say we should eat vegetables raw because food given in Adam's sinless state was raw, I would like to say the following:

Vegetables were not given in Adam’s sinless state; they were added after sin. And I'm sure even IF they did have any vegetables the weather was perfect so that the vegetables were just the way they needed to be eaten, but because the earth having been cursed many times, and the coming of the Flood, destruction of vegetation, etc., whatever may be the reason, we have been counseled in the sop that COARSE VEGETABLES ARE NOT TO BE EATEN RAW. They should be cooked till tender.

Here's a link about iodine and course veggies:

http://www.naturalfertilityandwellness.com/how-to-eat-your-veggies/

Vegetables are only those things that GROW STRAIGHT OUT OF THE GROUND like greens, lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, etc.

Here are to links to 2 different blogs I have online; please read them to know the truth on raw veggies and juicing, and smoothies.

Quinoa

Quinoa is technically a seed that is classified and consumed as a whole grain. Often called a "pseudocereal," it is a seed from a non-grass plant related to spinach and beets, rather than a true grass grain. It is highly nutritious, naturally gluten-free, and a complete protein.

One of my favorite grains...Quinoa!

Did you know that Quinoa is alkaline forming unlike brown rice which is acidic forming? Alkaline environment = better health!

Also Quinoa is A SUPERGRAIN. Quinoa is one of the most protein-rich foods we can eat.

Quinoa contains almost twice as much fiber as most other grains...a happy colon goes along way!

Quinoa contains Iron – Strong!

Quinoa contains lysine.

Quinoa is rich in magnesium because who doesn't want a healthy heart!

Quinoa is high in Riboflavin – (B2) Metabolic Support!

Quinoa has a high content of manganese. Manganese include a benefit to healthy bone structure, bone metabolism, and helping to create essential enzymes for building bones. It also acts as a co-enzyme to assist metabolic activity in the human body.

And so much more! 

Go ahead and eat it!

Purple Cabbage

VEGETABLES ARE A BUILDER OF THE BODY
NEVER EAT RAW COARSE VEGETABLES: (They need to be cooked till tender)

“In the study of hygiene, students should be taught the nutrient value of different foods. The effect of a concentrated and stimulating diet, also of foods deficient in the elements of nutrition, should be made plain. Tea and coffee, fine-flour bread, pickles, COARSE VEGETABLES, candies, condiments, and pastries fail of supplying proper nutriment. Many a student has broken down as the result of using such foods.” {Ed 204.3} 

WHY NOT?

Because they contain compounds that may inhibit the functions of the thyroid gland unless lightly steamed. (Nutrition 101 by: Debra Raybern N.D., Sera Johnson, Laura Hopkins, and Karen Hopkins. Also, proper digestion does not take place.  The steaming of coarse vegetables helps the necessary function of certain enzymes in the breaking down of these coarse vegetables.

PURPLE CAULIFLOWER is similar to white cauliflower in appearance, but the name gives away its main difference. The vibrant purple color not only adds beauty but nutrition as well. The purple hue is a result of flavonoids and vitamins.

PURPLE CAULIFLOWER is a low calorie vegetable containing only 25 calories for 100 g. For the 100 g serving, purple cauliflower offers 0 g of fat, 5 g of carbohydrates, 2 g of fiber, 2 g of sugar and 2 g of protein. In addition, this same 100 g will satisfy 100 percent of your daily needs for vitamin C.

Although white cauliflower is in the same family as cabbage, the PURPLE CAULIFLOWER is actually in the same family as broccoli, the brassica family. The purple cauliflower grows outward and produces bunches of florets, like broccoli. These plants need rich soil, lots of moisture and moderate temperatures.

The PURPLE hue of this vegetable is due to anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are antioxidant flavonoids that belong to the group of phenolic antioxidants. Anthocyanins are also found in red cabbage, red wine and blueberries. This flavonoid holds potential health benefits, including the ability to help stabilize capillary walls. Weak capillary walls allow toxic substances to permeate into cells, which can be detrimental to the entire body.

PURPLE CAULIFLOWER contains important vitamins and minerals for overall health. In 100 g of purple cauliflower, you receive over 100 percent of the recommended daily values, or DV, of vitamin C. In addition, you get 25 percent DV of vitamin K, 14 percent DV of folate and 11 percent DV of vitamin B6. Purple cauliflower also offers 12 percent DV of manganese and 9 percent DV of potassium.

I love the color and the taste is very similar to cauliflower. PURPLE CAULIFLOWER makes a beautiful salad and a great conversation piece for all of your meat and potato friends who complain that a vegan diet is boring.

ALSO:

Please DO NOT comment that the PURPLE color is genetically modified. Purple cauliflower is actually a member of the broccoli family - Fruits, vegetables, beans and grains all come in many different colors “naturally” - just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Danger: The High Protein Diet

You've probably heard about the sudden deaths of those who have gone on a high-protein, low-carbohydrate liquid diet to lose weight. These deaths are caused by irregular heart rhythms resulting from severe nutritional imbalances. But while these deaths are dramatic, there are many other chronic, disabling disorders that come from a high-protein diet. In fact, A HIGH-PROTEIN DIET IS TOXIC TO THE BODY! This diet taxes your liver, breaks down your body's own protein tissues, triggers a loss of calcium from your bones, and leaves behind toxic residues. Before your body manages to eliminate these residues, it is often damaged, becoming more susceptible to a variety of diseases including cancer and arthritis.

A high-protein diet also causes excessive calcium loss through the urine. People on a high-protein diet need large amounts of calcium to make up for the losses. With an extremely high-protein diet (140 grams a day), researchers found it was impossible to maintain calcium balance-regardless of how much extra calcium one
ingested!

Too much protein causes harmful amounts of ammonia to accumulate in the body, and ammonia has been shown to slow the growth of cells in a cell culture. It seems clear that ammonia will slow the growth of normal cells, but hardly affects the growth of cancer cells - apparently giving the cancer cells an advantage!

For the elderly, a high-protein diet is particularly detrimental since they may easily lose bone matrix, resulting in osteoporosis, or thinning of the bones. Then, too, there's the loss of calcium, iron, zinc, and phosphorus through the urine during a high protein diet and we know that zinc is needed to balance other minerals in the blood.

 In a completely primitive society, an individual receives about 10 percent of their calories from protein, about 10 percent from fat, and about 80 percent from complex (unrefined) carbohydrates. Studies indicate this kind of diet is the easiest for the human body to handle, since both fats and proteins are far more difficult to metabolize than carbohydrates.

Almost 100 percent of carbohydrates can be converted to energy during digestion, so they represent the least “expensive” form of body fuel, leaving the smallest amount of waste product. Protein, on the other hand, is an “expensive” fuel, since only 58 percent is available for “burning:' leaving much waste material for your body to dispose. Fats are even more difficult, since only 10 percent can be converted into fuel. So, since the production of heat, the performance of work, and the forerunners for many other nutrients are obtained from carbohydrates, it is plain that they should represent the major portion of food eaten.

Many people have a fear of eating carbohydrates, thinking they will cause weight gain. THIS IS A MISCONCEPTION. It is fats and proteins that stimulate one to become overweight, rather than unrefined carbohydrates. Eating high-carbohydrate foods will not cause you to become overweight unless you eat high-fat and high-protein sauces, gravies, and other foods with them. In fact, if you use a high-carbohydrate diet from natural sources, it is highly unlikely that you will become overweight.

Refined carbohydrates are absorbed rapidly into the blood stream and put a strain on the pancreas, liver, stomach, and other digestive organs, often resulting in imbalanced blood biochemistry. Generally speaking, all refined or concentrated foods should be taken quite sparingly.

The best diet is a very simple one consisting of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Apart from these three food groups, all other foods should be used sparingly. Some nutrients, like salt, should also be used sparingly, however some salt is good for the body we are told.

Oils should be used sparingly, as they may cause an increased susceptibility to cancer and heart disease.

No added protein should be used, and very high protein foods such as animal products should not be used but if you do then use them very sparingly.

Enjoy the foods God gives us in their natural form. Your body will thank you!!!
