Live Food: Man's Best Nutritional Solution - Part 3

In my opinion, this article is one of the most important ones
we have on our website. It was originally issued as a Newsletter
over a year ago. The research and writing of it was done for HFR
by Larry Spencer. Subsequently, it was used as part of a book
titled, "The OZ Factors" - toto@ozfactors.com
____________________

Many more folks have come on board to receive these Newletters since
then, so we are issuing it again at this time. It covers the full gamut
of wisdom that we have sought to teach others in terms of nutritional
based health programs. It is long and for this reason we have divided
it up into smaller bite sized pieces. The entirety of this article which can
referenced by clicking on the following:

YOU TOO, CAN REBUILD YOUR VERY OWN IMMUNE SYSTEM
IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME!

Just like a car engine which has been using the wrong fuel,
a human body which has been using dead fuel for a period
of time begins to "die". Death of the body begins when the white
lymphocytes or white blood cells of the body can not get rid of
the toxic waste materials left behind from the use of dead fuel.
When too many cells die, the whole body dies. Fortunately, the body
has the ability to replace every single cell with a brand new copy of
itself every year or so. Due to the continuous cell renewal effort of
the body, we can recover from disease and improve the quality of
the body - provided we are using the correct fuel and not adding too
many toxic substances into the environment of the living cells. You can
prevent illness from bacteria and degenerative diseases and rid yourself
of illness simply by changing the kind of fuel you consume. Rebuilding
healthy cells requires the following SIX conditions:

1) POSITIVE SPIRITUAL ENVIRONMENT
Cells have feelings too. A cell is a living organism which communicates
with all other cells. It can be demonstrated that individual cells become
upset or depressed by your spiritual mood or by upsetting events in
the environment around them. When cells are upset or depressed they
don't do their jobs well.

2) LIVING FUEL
Living fuel means organic fuel. Cells need to be fed live food which
contain unheated or processed enzymes. The food must be free of toxic
substances such as pesticides, preservatives and irradiation. In order for
cells to create protein to build your body they need all 22 amino acids.
They need all the vitamins and all the trace minerals available in raw fruits
and vegetables, and ocean vegetables such as kelp and dulce. They also
need essential oils found in live food oils (nuts, olives, seeds, etc.).

3) TOXIN-FREE WATER
The body is more than 70% water. Coincidentally, raw fruits and vegatables
are also composed of 70% water. All of the cells of the body need clean water.
The water must be free from contaminates such as the poisonous chemicals
put in the municipal water systems of about one-half of US cities: chlorine
and fluoride. Both of these chemicals actually cause cancer. Drink only
distilled water from glass containers. Plastic containers may cause a toxic
chemical reaction with the water, especially when exposed to sunlight.

4) OXYGEN
Mixing heat with oxygen and fuel causes combustion, which produces
energy. We use exercise to get oxygen into the body and get the oxygen
to circulate through the blood so that it can carry nutrition to the cells.
This requires three types of exercise: aerobic (oxygenating) exercise,
strength exercises and lymphatic stimulation. Walking, running, stretching,
deep breathing exercises and nearly every active sport get more oxygen
into the body.

5) CIRCULATION TO CARRY NUTRIENTS IN THE BLOOD TO ALL PARTS OF THE BODY
Living fuel and oxygen provide the energy for the cells. This energy is
used to build new cells and to clean the body of toxins such as dead fuel,
waste, toxic chemicals, viruses and radiation. For the fuel and oxygen to
get to the cells, they must be carried throughout the entire body by the blood.
Physical activity gets the blood moving throughout the body.
Research indicates that using a "rebounder" supplies all of the needs for
exercise without detrimental side effects. Rebound exercise accomplishes
the following: Gets nutrients to the cells via the blood Improves circulation
which helps take waste away from the cells for elimination Uses gravity to
help "pump" fluids through the cell walls, which helps get nutrients into
and waste out of the cells

6) WASTE ELIMINATION
The byproduct of burning fuel is waste material, like smoke and ash. Often
the fuel itself IS waste material as far as the engine in concerned. For
example, would you put sugar in the gas tank of your car? Would you pour
grease and toxic sludge into your gas tank? You don't because the engine
treats it as waste. It won't burn and so must be eliminated. Too much waste
clogs up the engine and it stops running. This principle extends to food as
well. Eating dead food forces your body to work hard to push the waste out.
This processs takes a tremendous amount your energy, and leaves you feeling
sluggish. Human bodies treat dead, toxic fuel, like cooked meat, as waste.

THE LIVE FOOD DIET AND LIFESTYLE

The Live Food Diet is not a "diet" in the traditional sense. It is really a lifestyle
change which is a program of nutrition, exercise and detoxification through
colon cleansing. The "diet" was developed by Dr. George Malkmus as a means
to rid himself of colon cancer. The program not only rid Dr. Malkmus of a
cancer tumor the size of a baseball in his colon, but handled many other
unwanted symptoms too. Since 1976 nearly a million people have started
to follow the Live Food Diet created by Dr. Malkmus. Tens of thousands of
people have provided testimonials stating that they have been relieved of
nearly every conceivable unwanted body condition, not the least of which
are cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and
arthritis. The program is simple. Consume only raw, organic, uncooked fruits
and vegetables AND freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices, especially
carrot juice. Get daily exercise, fresh air and sunshine, and drink only distilled
water. Try it for 21 days and see for yourself the difference that living fuel
makes in your engine!
BUT, IT TASTES SO GOOD...
There are some of us who can have some difficulty stopping our old habits of
eating dead "junk" food. These old habits are based on learned behavior and
agreements we've been taught since we were little kids. For example, we
were taught by our parents and teachers to "eat your meat and drink your
milk so you'll grow up to be big and strong". We were taught that
"Wonderbread" builds strong bodies 12 ways!" Factually, The Meat Industry,
The Dairy Industry, The Poultry Industry, and the Baked Goods Industry have
bought and paid for most of the "nutritional" training in our public school
systems for the past 70 years or more. We were taught about
the "4 Basic Food Groups" -- of course, THREE of those groups were products
represented by those commercial vested interests.
Most of our "nutritional" education has come from very expensive television
and magazine advertisements that teach you to want to eat the charred flesh
of a dead cow smoldering on a white flour bun which has had every speck of
life and nutritional value ground and bleached out of it which will cause your
cells to mutate into cancerous tumors which will eat your body alive until you
die in excruciating pain! Now we're supposed to follow this up with potatoes
that have been frozen to death and then boiled alive in scalding, rancid oil
which will make your veins clog up with sludge and cause you to die of an
agonizingly painful heart attack! The final touch is a glass of carbonated tap
water filled with toxic chlorine and fluorine gas which has been mixed with
11 teaspoons or more of dead, nutrition-free, refined white sugar and
artificial flavoring. Now, they tell us with a happy, smiling clown face that
we're supposed to believe that this is a "balanced diet" and that it TASTES
GOOD!! (John Robbins, "Diet For A New America" Video)
If you're looking for somebody to blame for all this "nutritional" nonsense,
try looking in the bathroom mirror first. In the immortal words of W.C. Fields,
"there's a sucker born every minute".
It's time we stop believing the sales pitch of the muti-billion dollar a year
commercial vested interests and start taking control of our own minds!
That means taking control of our own eating choices, our own bodies
and our own lives! The more healthy your body becomes, the more you
will find joy in the delightful flavor and fragrance of "living foods".

PROTEIN: Fact & Fiction

"Never have so many been so confused over a subject about which they
know so little." The word "protein" is derived from the Greek language
and means "of primary importance". Amino Acids, the component parts
of protein, are the biochemical basis for life and are required by every cell.
The immune system#s antibodies are protein. Endrocine hormones are
protein. The cement that holds our cells together is made of protein.
STRENGTH AND STAMINA: THE GREAT MEAT MYTH
What do the following World Champion athletes all have in common,
besides strength and endurance? They must be big meat eaters, right?
Henry Aaron # All Time Baseball Home Run Champion
Dave Scott - 6-time winner of the Ironman Triathlon (the only man to win
it more than twice!)
Sixto Linares - World Record holder in the 24-hour Triathlon
Paavo Nurmi - 20 World Records and 9 Olympic Medals in distance running
Stan Price - World Record holder in the Bench Press
Andreas Cahling - Mr. International Body Building Champion
Roy Hilligan - Mr. America Body Building Champion
Ridgely Abele - 8-Time National Champion in Karate
All of these athletes are VEGETARIANS! There are many, many more top
athletes who have discovered that eating meat decreases strength and stamina.
The strongest animals on Earth are also vegetarians: Elephants, oxen, horses,
mules, camels, water buffalo, etc. The Silverback Gorilla is 3-times the size
of a man and is 30-times stronger! A Silverback Gorilla is so strong it could
throw a 200-pound man across the street like a Frizbee! What does a gorilla
eat? Raw fruit and vegetables.
John Robbins, in his book, Diet for a New America, reports that "...study
after study has found that protein combustion is no higher during exercise
than under resting conditions."
The Journal of the American Medical Association in 1978 warns athletes
(and non-athletes) against taking protein supplements, stating "Athletes
need the same amount of protein foods as non-athletes. Protein does not
increase strength. Indeed, it often takes greater energy to digest
and metabolize the excess protein."

PROTEIN AND HEALTH

It has been known for decades that populations consuming high-protein,
meat-based diets have higher cancer rates and lower life-spans
(averaging as low as 30 to 40 years), compared to cultures subsisting on
low-protein vegetarian diets. Some of these have lifespans of more than
90 years.
Dr. Alexander Leaf published the findings of his research about the oldest
people in the world in the January, 1973 edition of National Geographic
Magazine. He found that the three most consistently disease-free
and long-lived people on Earth are the Abkhazians of Russia, the Vilacabambans
of Ecuador and the Hunzukuts of Pakistan. None of these peoples suffer from
Western diseases: NO obesity, NO cancer, NO heart disease! On the average
these people live to be over 100 years old. The men are physically active
and still fathering children at 100 years of age.
The diet of all of these people consists of 70-80 percent high-water-content
foods such as raw, uncooked fruits and vegetables. These people eat very
little or no animal products.
Meat protein is the most difficult food for the body to digest. The average
time for food (other than fruit) to pass through the entire gastrointestinal
tract is between 25 and 30 hours. When meat is eaten, that time is more
than doubled!
Research published in the New England Journal of Medicine, in September,
1982 states, "undigested protein must be eliminated by the kidneys.
This unnecessary work stresses out the kidneys so much that gradually
lesions are developed and tissues begin to harden."
In the colon, this excess protein waste putrefies into toxic substances,
some of which are absorbed in the bloodstream. The University of Illinois
Medical School reports that "A high protein diet also breaks down
the pancreas and lowers resistance to cancer as well as contributes to
the development of diabetes."

HOW MUCH PROTEIN IS "ENOUGH"

Human mother#s milk contains no more than 5% protein. This is enough
protein to enable an infant to double it#s weight and size during the first
6 months of life! After that, the need for protein DECREASES. Independent
researchers around the world agree that the human need for protein each
day is only 25 - 35 GRAMS. (about 1 ounce). Many nutritionists feel that only
20 grams a day are more than enough. Meanwhile, the AVERAGE AMERICAN
eats more than 100 GRAMS of protean a day - 5 times the actual need!
Reports in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition say that people do not
need to consume more than 2.5% of their daily calorie intake from protein.
Even the World Health Organization says people need more than 4.5% calories
from protein.
So how many calories are provided from protein in common raw fruits
and vegetables?
SPINACH = 49%
BROCCOLI = 45%
CAULIFLOWER = 40%
LETTUCE = 34%
PEAS = 30%
GREEN BEANS = 26%
CUCUMBERS = 24%
CELERY = 21%
POTATOES = 11%
SWEET POTATOES = 6%
HONEYDEW MELON = 10%
CANTALOUPE = 9%
STRAWBERRIES = 8%
ORANGES = 8%
WATERMELON = 8%
PEACHES = 6%
BANANAS = 5%
PEARS = 5%
