GINGER IS NOT A SPICE IT’S A ROOT:

“In regard to our using spice, I plead not guilty. We have not had spice in our house for ten years, except a little ginger, which we have always used to some extent.”  {15MR 245.4}

TURMERIC IS A ROOT AS WELL:

ANISE IS AN HERB OF THE GARDEN:

“The Pharisees were very exact in tithing garden herbs, such as mint, anise, and rue…” (DA 617.1)

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPICES:

They Do Not Help Aid In Digestion:

·       “Condiments and spices used in the preparation of food for the table aid in digestion in the same way that tea, coffee, and liquor are supposed to help the laboring man perform his tasks. After the immediate effects are gone, they drop as correspondingly below par as they were elevated above par by these stimulating substances.

THEY CAUSE MANY HEALTH AND SPIRITUAL PROBLEMS:

• The system is weakened.
• The blood is contaminated, and
• Inflammation is the sure result. {CD 339.4}
• deranging the stomach
• exciting the nerves, and
• enfeebling the intellect
• irritate the tender coating of the stomach
• destroy the natural sensitiveness of this delicate membrane.
• The blood becomes fevered (CD 236.2)
• Lays a heavy tax on the Liver
• Digestive organs are deranged (2T 66.2)
• It induces nervous debility,
• impatience, and
• lack of self-control.”  (Te 57.3) (Remember what 1 Corinthians 9:25 tells us)

Blood making organs cannot convert spices into good blood: (2T 383.2)

Arouse animal propensities: (CD 236.2/SA 65.1)

Note: Science has found that spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, all-spice, and other similar actually enhance the animal nature in humans.  And they found MOST OF THE SEXUAL PREDATORS EAT A DIET VERY HIGH IN SPICES.  And when these are removed from the diet, the animal-like propensities tend to go away.

Moral and Intellectual Powers are weakened: (CD 236.2)

Morals are in danger of being affected by the use of spices: (4T 140.3)

Spices Create a Desire for Tobacco, Alcohol, and stronger items: (CD 235.3/CD 236.1/CD 340.2)

PERVERTS TASTE, CAUSING A CRAVING FOR:

• Clay
• Slate pencils
• Burned coffee
• Tea grounds
• Cinnamon
• Cloves (CD 239.2)
• And chalk as well

Spices are referred to as a “fiery whip” (CD 340.1)

SPICES ESPECIALLY NOT GOOD FOR:

SHOULD NEVER BE SERVED IN FOOD AT OUR CAMP MEETINGS:

“Nothing should be taken to camp meeting except the most healthful articles, cooked in a simple manner, free from all spices and grease.”  {2T 601.4}  (2T 601.4)

BOOKS ON SPICES:

• IN THE BOOK ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FOODS & THEIR HEALING POWER: Pages 334,340
• THE USE OF SPICES by: Ellen White

http://www.ellenwhitedefend.com/subjects/spices.htm

SPICE SUBSTITUTIONS:

ALLSPICE – Use allspice substitute. 

BLACK PEPPER – (Dry seeds from a papaya then put into a grinder and grind like you would black pepper)

CAYENNE PEPPER – Use paprika.

CINNAMON – Use cinnamon substitute.

CLOVES – Use coriander instead.

MUSTARD – Use mustard substitute.

NUTMEG – Use cardamom.

“...Mustard, pepper, spices, pickles, and other things of a like character, irritate the stomach and make the blood feverish and impure. The inflamed condition of the drunkard's stomach is often pictured as illustrating the effect of alcoholic liquors. A similarly inflamed condition is produced by the use of irritating condiments. Soon ordinary food does not satisfy the appetite. The system feels a want, a craving, for something more stimulating.” {CCh 223.7}

“…It is the duty of every person, for his own sake, and for the sake of humanity, to inform himself in regard to the laws of life and conscientiously to obey them…” (MH 128.1)

“ABSTINENCE FROM ALL HURTFUL FOOD AND DRINK is the fruit of true religion.” (9T 113.1)(CD 457.1)

***God cares about our Health (3 John 2... KJV only!!!)

WHAT ABOUT CAYENNE????

“Tea, coffee, tobacco, mustard, CAYENNE, black pepper, allspice, cinnamon, cloves, mace, nutmeg, ginger, etc. Of all these the best physiological rule to adopt in regard to their use is – “The less the better.” {1868 JNL, HBH 184.4}

In other words, don't use it - except for medicinal reasons.
