MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE THEY ARE EATING VERY WELL, BUT IN FACT, THEY ARE NOT. WHAT KIND OF FOODS SHOULD WE BE EATING FOR OPTIMAL HEALTH?

Many people think they are eating excellent food because they are paying a high price for it. Just because the food costs a lot of money doesn't necessarily mean it is good food. Some people think that if the food tastes good, it must be good for them. This may be true to some degree, but more often than not, the food is not as nutritionally beneficial as it could be. Or maybe you are eating in only the finest restaurants. The problem with restaurant cooking is that many of the utensils used in the cooking are made from metals containing aluminum, they use many foods that are processed and they use chemical preparations to keep fresh foods from spoiling quite often. So even if you are eating at the salad bar, you cannot be sure the food you are eating is free of chemicals. The best diet should include 15-20 varieties of fresh, raw vegetables and raw or native protein every day. (Raw and native contains the full range of amino acids. These amino acids are destroyed when the protein is cooked using high heat. Native protein is cooked slowly over low heat for only a short amount of time.) Organically grown foods should be eaten as much as possible because they will yield the best nutritional components and the best taste. Consumption of meats should be kept to a minimum and should consist largely of fish and poultry. Most people should severely limit their intake of sugars and fruits, particularly if a adverse health condition exists.

MANY PEOPLE SUFFER FROM DEGENERATIVE CONDITIONS. WHY?

The repeated incidence of illness can lead to a degenerative condition later on. If the toxins you are ingesting are being accumulated in a particular place in your body and you continue to feed yourself more toxic substances, eventually, this part of your body will malfunction. The location of the accumulated toxins within your body will vary depending on heredity and other physiological factors.
