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. What matters is that we are physically the same creature we were when we first existed. Our physical needs are exactly the same. Our metabolism of food is basically the same as that of our ancestors.

What happens when we substitute “Plastic Food”, “Altered Water” and pharmaceutical drugs for whole unprocessed food, pure natural water, and natural plant phyto-chemicals? It’s becoming more apparent every day. The very sad consequences of the last few generations’ food, lifestyle, and pharmaceutical drug choices are causing grievous pain, suffering and illnesses which get worse each year.

We, as Americans should be ashamed. We have the worst health statistics (life expectancy and infant mortality) of any industrialized nation. We spend the most money on health care, eat the most junk food and take the most pharmaceutical drugs. Americans are getting sicker and sicker and fatter and fatter, all the while consuming an ever spiralling number of synthetic chemically produced EXPENSIVE pharmaceutical drugs?

Until just a few generations ago, our ancestors were fit and healthy compared with present-day generations. The majority lived good, active, healthy lives and ultimately died peacefully in their sleep. In primitive ancestry, you were more likely to get eaten by some wild animal, than you were to die of some illness or disease.

In today’s society, being fit, active and healthy to our last days is a rare occurrence. Today chronic disease, chronic pain and prolonged end-of-life care are becoming much more the expected outcome for us. Even our children are being diagnosed with conditions which not too long ago were classed as “Old Age Diseases”.]

Why is Our Generation Obese, Sick and Over Medicated?

It’s the refined, processed, chemical products that we consume that our ancestors simply did not consume. Unless we return to natural unprocessed food - vegetables, fruits, meats - we will continue to degenerate as a species until there is nothing left to regenerate.
