Since the Sixties, the American public has been brainwashed into accepting biochemically altered food and medicine produced by the food, chemical and pharmaceutical drug industries. The 50’s boasted through the new media phenomenon - Television - “Better Living Through Chemicals”. We believed, and we bought, swallowed and injected and are still consuming them in massive quantities.

Where did “Better Living Through Chemicals” bring us to today? Continue Reading »

Human beings and animals alike have been so intimately connected to plants for all of our existences we cannot live without them. We connect with plants and exchange with plants right down to our cells and smallest molecules. As an example: Plants give off oxygen as a waste product which we need to breathe, and we in turn expel carbon-dioxide as a waste which plants need to grow.

The same synergistic arrangement occurs when we consume a plant. Plants convert minerals from the soil into soluble minerals that are “bio-available” - our bodies know what to do with plant-based minerals. Plants contain phyto-nutrients to heal us like nothing else can. Our reliance on plants has been part of every human society. Plants and human beings harmonize on levels that we still don’t understand. Why do we grow flowers, or trees that bear no fruit? It’s because we like to look at them and interact with them on some kind of metaphysical plane!
Quality of Food Equals Quality of Life

It really doesn’t matter what your beliefs are about how we came into existence on this planet. Continue Reading »

Why Is Food Medicine?

Consider the digestive system. Whatever we eat, later travels through more than 20 feet of an efficient intestinal tract that extracts certain molecules from food, then converts them to one common molecule, Acetyl Co-A. This creates building blocks the body needs to grow, build, and repair. We need:Protein, Glucose, and Healthy fats.

The intestines convert food molecules to Acetyl Co-A, because food has familiar combinations of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. When presented with inorganic and bizarre substances such as “Plastic Food” and synthetic chemicals used in pharmaceutical drugs, the body has no clue as to what to do with them.

Usually they are excreted. This might explain why “Placebos” (or sugar pills) often work as well as or better than pharmaceutical drugs in clinical trials. What happens more often is as the body tries to detoxify offending invader drugs, it creates new “Metabolites”. These have multiple side-effects which in most cases are worse than the effects of the pharmaceutical drugs themselves. Continue Reading »
