CNN Health Story Promotes Pizza, Ice Cream, Burgers as "Great for Your Waist" Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

You do it by eating fresh produce and avoiding processed foods and animal products. The title of this article is completely nonsensical to begin with: "Bad foods that are actually great for your waist." How can foods that are bad somehow magically be great for your waist? This article implies that these junk foods will result in a reduction of your waist size. And yet any person with even an inkling of nutritional knowledge knows that the foods recommended in the article actually increase your waist size.

Raw Spirit Festival Update: Amazing raw foods products and more Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Most of the Q&A was incredible informative, covering topics like how to protect parents from prosecution from ignorant Child Protective Services officials who somehow think that not feeding children processed foods is some form of dietary child abuse. At one point, an overzealous audience member who was obviously at the wrong festival started getting pissy with David Wolfe and, with microphone in hand, ranted off a series of personal attacks. (Didn't the guy know that personal attacks should be reserved for blogs and websites?

It's not hocus pocus, it's simply attunement to the vibration of living plants (and the absence of angry meat energy or processed foods pollution). People who support war are almost entirely angry meat eaters suffering from chronic, diet-induced degenerative disease. Raw foods artists, musicians and more... Getting back to the vendors at the Raw Spirit Festival, one of the featured artists of the day was Manaca from Hawaii (www.ManakaMusic.com), a raw foods vegan vocalist and musician with inspiring lyrics who lives an authentically high-vibration lifestyle.

FDA seizes $71k in herbal tea products as campaign of censorship against nutritional supplements continues Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Of course, what really works best overall is to stop eating processed foods and sugar, and switch to a raw living foods diet. Diabetes usually disappears within 30 - 60 days, never to return as long as you stay with the raw foods diet. There are many cures for diabetes, but the medical establishment does not want consumers to know about any of them because there's simply far too much profit to be found in the ongoing treatment of "lifetime diabetics." This, folks, is exactly why the FDA attacks nutritional supplement companies.

Consumer groups join forces to reverse pasteurization ruling for raw almonds Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

This degradation of health-enhancing nutrients has the result of contributing to nutritional deficiencies and imbalances in North American consumers -- people who are already in a state of chronic nutritional deficiency due to the consumption of other processed foods. It also sets a precedent for the intentional mislabeling of food products being purchased by North American consumers.

Medical Tyranny in Maryland: Parents Threatened With Jail Time for Not Vaccinating Children Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

These are, no doubt, the same parents who feed their children processed foods, soda pop and school lunches (which contain numerous harmful chemical additives such as sodium nitrite, sodium benzoate and artificial food colors). Join NewsTarget in taking action, and we'll help put a stop to this medical tyranny.

In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto Michael Pollan See book keywords and concepts

NUTRITIONISM COMES TO MARKET o idea could be more sympathetic to manufacturers of A. \| processed foods, which surely explains why they have been so happy to jump on the nutritionism bandwagon. Indeed, nutritionism supplies the ultimate justification for processing food by implying that with a judicious application of food science, fake foods can be made even more nutritious than the real thing. This of course is the story of margarine, the first important synthetic food to slip into our diet.

What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Diabetes: An Innovative Program to Prevent, Treat, and Beat This Controllable Disease Steven V. Joyal See book keywords and concepts

The bottom line is this: think olive oil, fish, and green leafy vegetables, and go light on meats and processed foods. You will see many food suggestions and recipes that incorporate a balance of healthy fats in chapter 6. PREPARING AND ORDERING ANTIGLYCATION FOODS When it comes to eating to prevent diabetes, please remember that it's not only what you eat that's important, it is how it is prepared.

The appropriate diet is well balanced and varied and includes fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, beans, and fish, with a limit on refined sugars, processed foods, and saturated fats. Organically grown produce, meats, and poultry are preferable, or inorganic produce that has been carefully washed to remove agricultural chemicals.4 In an observational study involving 76 healthy pregnant women, 78 percent had "one or more glaring nutritional deficiencies.

In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto Michael Pollan See book keywords and concepts

The ideology offers a respectable rationale for creating and marketing all manner of new processed foods and permission for people to eat them. Plus, every course correction in nutritionist advice gives reason to write new diet books and articles, manufacture a new line of products, and eat a whole bunch of even more healthy new food products. And if a product is healthy by design and official sanction, then eating lots of it must be healthy too—maybe even more so.

Health Begins in the Colon Dr. Edward F. Group III, DC, ND, DACBN See book keywords and concepts

Avoiding processed foods altogether is a good way to help keep hidden soy (and other ingredients) out of your diet. How Does White Flour Cause a Toxic Colon? White flour is a common ingredient made from grains of wheat. Unlike whole grain flour, which utilizes wheat in its entirety (starch, protein, and fiber), white flour is made from just the starchy part. In effect, the healthful parts of the wheat are removed. Synthetic B-vitamins engineered from petrochemicals (derived from coal tar), are then added to replace the natural B-vitamins removed, which cause imbalances in the body.

In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto Michael Pollan See book keywords and concepts

Nutritionism prefers to tinker with the Western diet, adjusting the various nutrients (lowering the fat, boosting the protein) and fortifying processed foods rather than questioning their value in the first place. Nutritionism is, in a sense, the official ideology of the Western diet and so cannot be expected to raise radical or searching questions about it. But we can.

Fortifying processed foods with missing nutrients is surely better than leaving them out, but food science can add back only the small handful of nutrients that food science recognizes as important today. What is it overlooking? As the whole-grain food synergy study suggests, science doesn't know nearly enough to compensate for everything that processing does to whole foods. We know how to break down a kernel of corn or grain of wheat into its chemical parts, but we have no idea how to put it back together again. Destroying complexity is a lot easier than creating it.

But today we're eating soy in ways Asian cultures with much longer experience of the plant would not recognize: "Soy protein isolate," "soy isoflavones," "textured vegetable protein" from soy and soy oils (which now account for a fifth of the calories in the American diet) are finding their way into thousands of processed foods, with the result that Americans now eat more soy than the Japanese or the Chinese do. Yet there are questions about the implications of these novel food products for our health.

New "Juice Feasting" Emerging as Phytonutrient-Rich Disease-Fighting Nutritional System Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

It's actually no more expensive than the processed foods it replaces. What is it? Allow me to introduce David Rain's Juice Feasting. David Rain's Juice Feasting www.JuiceFeasting.com You may have heard of "Juice Fasting" or "Juicing," but this is something quite different. It's called "Juice Feasting" and it involves drinking large quantities of plant-based juices that you make yourself, right in your own kitchen, using nothing more than a blender and a nut milk bag. (You don't need a juicer to do this.)

First, drink less milk and stay away from high-sugar and processed foods, all of which have been shown to cause breakouts. Exercise regularly and make other shifts in behavior to reduce stress, another reason people get pimples. If you want to try a medication, start with over-the-counter topical benzoyl peroxide cream. If that doesn't work, you may need to see a doctor for a combination benzoyl peroxide and/or antibiotic cream, or a course of oral antibiotics. The next step would be a retinoid cream like retinal.

It is present in many potato and corn chips, crackers, doughnuts, french fries, and other processed foods. It has been likened to putting sand into the gears of a watch; it will slowly wear your body out over time. Restaurant fried foods like french fries are a particularly bad culprit, because the oil in restaurants is used over and over and in the process breaks down and becomes even more harmful. And toast yourself after you make these changes with a glass or two of wine (or beer) a day, if you want to; moderate amounts of wine and beer also reduce heart-disease risk.
