Health Secret of Hunza How would you like to live in a land where cancer has not yet been invented? A land where an optometrist discovers to his amazement that everyone has perfect 20-20 vision? A land where cardiologists cannot find a single trace of coronary heart disease?

How would you like to live in a land where no one ever gets ulcers, appendicitis or gout? A land where men of 80 and 90 father children, and there's nothing unusual about men and women enjoying vigorous life at the age of 100 or 120?

Land of Hunza

• Hunza Valley is located at 7,999' in northern Pakistan and is the home of the longest lived people on the planet. • Northern Pakistan is blessed with the greatest mass of high mountains on earth where the Himalaya, Karakoram, Pamir's, and Hindukush all meet!

• When a medical team led by Dr. Robert Garrison studied the Hunzas, the physicians did not find a single case of cancer, ulcer, appendicitis and colitis.

Heart disease and hypertension were unknown among them. •

Dr. Hoffman writes:

• The people of Hunza Land live without the ailment of cancer, heart trouble, arteriosclerosis, high blood pressure, arthritis, diabetes, mental illness and many other disease that plague the world civilization.

Of what do the people die? They die of old age.

The Hunza People are uniquely healthy and free of disease. Many studies have been done and it is believed that their simple healthy diet of carefully grown organic food and the glacial, living water is their secret to health and long life.

Hunza food is completely natural, containing no chemical additives whatsoever. The Hunza story is only one of the more dramatic examples of the miraculous health produced by a diet of fresh, natural, unprocessed and unadulterated food.

Factors that Destroy the Natural Power of Food We Eat

Commercial Farming methods resulting in mineral deficient soil.

An over reliance on pesticides.

Antibiotics and Growth Hormones

Genetically Modified Organism (GMO)

Harmful Effects of Conventional Farming to Human Health

What is conventional/ modern agriculture? Modern agriculture uses pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, rodenticides and harmful chemicals to produce the food we eat.

15

The food produced from conventional agriculture is harmful to human health

because they contain residues of chemicals and in-organic fertilizers.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 90%-95% of all pesticides residues are found in meat and dairy products.

Top 12 Foods that Contain the Highest Amount of Pesticides (According to: USDA Pesticide Data Program) The Environmental Working Group (EWG) found that up to 98 percent of all conventional produce, and particularly the type found on its "dirty" fruits list, is contaminated with cancer-causing pesticides (http://www.ewg.org/foodnews/list/).

What are the harmful effects of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, rodenticides to human health?

HARMFUL EFFECT OF PESTICIDES TO OUR ENDOCRINE SYSTEM

Carcinogenic Effects • Toxins that imitate estrogen are called xenoestrogens and may be linked to high rates of breast cancer, endometriosis and other reproductive problems in women and decreased sperm counts, prostate and testicular cancer in men.

Reproductive Effect • Worldwide sperm count decline by approximately 50% since the1930s.  The onset of puberty in girls, shifting the mean from 11.2 years to 8.9 years for African Americans and 10.0 years for Caucasian girls

Neurological EFFECT • Neurodevelopment Scientists believe that neurological disorders observed in children, such as ADHD and autism, may be related to the prenatal chemical disruption of the thyroid system.

In August 2000, a research team in

Holland published •

findings which showed

that men whose jobs gave them a high exposure to pesticides

•

had significantly lower sperm counts.

31

• Couple of years earlier, a Danish study found that a sample of organic farmers had sperm counts 50% higher than the national average. • The Economic and Social Research Council, USDA, published a report in April 2000 saying that a combination 32 of

• High yielding rice and wheat, the so called “green revolution crops” are now named as one of the causes of brain damage especially impaired intellect in poor or third world countries. 33

• These crops, produced under modern agriculture techniques using large doses of pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers are being blamed for intelligence problems because they do not contain essential brain nutrients such as iodine, iron and vitamin A.

Modern agriculture or Chemical farming has

damaged our environment by

contaminating our rivers, lakes, drinking

water and clouds forming rain.

35

These poisonous chemicals has killed not only insects

but also fish, birds, useful small animals,

microorganisms and some plants.

36

31 Percent Of U.S. Honey Bees Were Wiped Out This Year – Who Will Pollinate Our Crops?  Honeybees have become widespread across North America and are bred commercially for their abilities to produce honey and pollinate crops—90 different farmgrown foods, including many fruits and nuts, depend on honeybees. 37

Harmful Effect of Growth Hormones, Growth Promotants and Anti biotics to Human Health

• Livestock like chicken, pigs and cattle, grown in chemical-industrial animal

farming systems are also sources of chemicals harmful to health.

39

• The animals grown like sardines in unhealthy animal farms are fed and injected with synthetic chemicals to force them to grow fast and survive the pathogenic micro organisms that abounds. •

• These are antibiotics, growth hormones, steroids, synthetic vitamins and minerals.

• When humans eat these animals, they also ingest these synthetic chemicals and whatever disease these animals have.

41

• Hormone residues in beef have been implicated in the early onset of puberty in girls, which could put them at greater risk of developing breast and other forms of cancer. Hormone residues in the meat of "growth enhanced" animals and can disrupt human hormone balance.

• recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH) is said to be responsible for a number of health issues ranging from premature puberty in children, causing developmental problems, and even leading to the development of breast, prostate or colon cancer due to the increased antibiotic.

• These regular meat-eaters live shorter lives. In a worldwide study, it has found that the Eskimos, Greenlanders and the Russian Kurgi tribes had the highest intake of flesh foods. • These groups had a lowest life expectancies in some cases averaging as low as 30 years.

• In comparison, population such as the Pakistan Hunzas, East Indian Todas, Russian Caucasians and the Yucatan Indians live under harsh conditions and eat little or no animal flesh. • These populations have the highest life expectancies, as high as 90 to 100 years. • The Hunzas eat almost no animal products, living a vigorous life into their 80's and beyond retirement to unknown, and many pass their one 100th birthday.

• According to Dr. Lorraine Day: we are not designed to eat meat because we have rounded molar; our intestine is around 30 feet long w/ crevices, and took us 3-5 days to expel.

•

Unlike the cat or tiger w/c is around 12 feet or less and straight; and took 3 hours to expel. Tiger has 20x more HCL in stomach.

According to Dr. Lorraine Day: • Because we change from plant based diet, mainly eating from fruits, grains and vegetables as our ancestors did in 1900, now people are just going on animal products and we have all sorts of disease, including cancer.

• World Cancer Research Fund declared that consumers should stop buying and eating all processed meat products for the rest of their lives. • "Beef” It's what's rotting in your colon."

Today, Oncologists from the Harvard Medical School recommend to cancer patients to: • Change lifestyle • Become vegetarians or avoid red meat • Eat lots of organic food • Avoid eating at FAST FOOD Restaurant 48

Harmful Effects of Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) to Human Health and Environment

• Currently about 75% of all processed food in the USA has GMO ingredients. The USA is currently the only country that does NOT require labels for GMO foods. GMOs cause cancer, sterility, farmer suicides, and many other diseases. • The European Union, Japan, China, Korea, Australia, New Zealand and many other nations now require mandatory GMO labeling.

• 10% of the worlds’ crops were GMO in 2010 • 29 countries worldwide grew GMO crops in 2011 • Over 50% of the GMO crops were grown in developing countries in 2011 • In 2011 United States, Brazil, Argentina, India, Canada, China, Paraguay, Pakistan, South Africa, Uruguay, Bolivia, Australia, Philippines, Myanmar, Burkino Faso, Mexico and Spain all grew GMO crops.

According to Dr.Albert Jo

(a medical doctor turned alternative/ integrated practitioner and organic farmer) • Seven (7) Metric Tons of GMO Corn that Japan and Korea rejected were alledgely dump into the Philippines, which the Filipinos are now eating. He contintued by saying that when test were done on the corn hair, it killed worms.

1. What are GMOs? • The DNA from other plants, viruses, animals and bacteria are injected into the cells of existing species. • This is supposed to make them more resistant to the rain, drought, pests, etc.

What's a GMO?

• A GMO (genetically modified organism) is the result of a laboratory process of taking genes from one species and inserting them into another in an attempt to obtain a desired trait or characteristic, hence they are also known as transgenic organisms.

Some of the Harmful Effects of Genetically Modified Organism (GMO)

Cancer and Degenerative Disease: • GH is a protein hormone which, when injected into cows stimulates the pituitary gland in a way that the produces more milk, thus making milk production more profitable for the large dairy corporations.

• IGF-1 is a very potent chemical hormone that has been linked to a 2 1/2 to 4 times higher risk of human colorectal and breast cancer

• The photo released by the French research team, showing large cancer tumors growing at a strongly heightened risk in rats fed a "lifetime" of GM corn, is shown below. • According to that study, 70% of females died premature and showed significant damage to their liver,

What is Artificial Growth Hormone? • Bovine somatotropin or BST, and bovine growth hormone, or BGH, are hormones that naturally occur in cattle..The artificial growth hormones are then injected into cows to increase milk production. • All 27 countries of the European Union, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia have banned artificial growth hormone’s use in milk for human consumption. The U.S. and Brazil are the only two countries that allow its use.

• The rBGH cows get udder infections (mastitis) and pus also gets in the milk; yes, all that stuff is STILL in the milk in the grocer (3%-19% pus). • Breast cancer is considered the “rich woman’s disease” because only rich women, who can afford to eat a western diet high in red meat and dairy, get breast cancer.

Why Women in Rural China Do Not Get Breast Cancer (Rich Women’s Disease)

Incidence of Breast Cancer : • 1:13 - Philippines • 1:12 – United Kingdom • 1:10 – United States • 68.8 : 100,000 England/Wales • 1:10,000 – Rural China • 11.2 :100,000 – Rural China • 1.6: 100,000 – Sri Lanka

Why Men in Rural China Do Not Get Prostate Cancer? (Rich Man’s Disease)

Incidence of Prostate Cancer :  0.5 : 100,000 – China 75% higher in England, Scotland and Wales

Because dairy is not included in their diet. They do not drink cows milk and eat dairy products that contains rBGH growth factors and hormones that promotes breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men.

Survey (BGS) from 2000 to 2005 “Any lactating mammal excretes toxins through her milk. This includes antibiotics, pesticides, chemicals and hormones. Also, all cows’ milk contains blood! … the USDA allows milk to contain from one to one and a half million white blood cells per millilitre. … another way to describe white cells where they don’t belong would be to call them pus cells.”

Birth Defects and Shorter Life Spans • When GM soy was fed to female rats, most of their babies died within three weeks. •

When male rats were fed GM soy, their testicles actually changed color—from the normal pink to dark blue. Mice fed GM soy had altered young sperm.

Interior Toxins: • "Pesticidal foods" have genes that produce a toxic pesticide inside the food's cells.

• The food is engineered to produce their own built in pesticide in every cell which produces a poison that splits open a bug's stomach and kills them when the bug tries to eat the plant.

Toxicity to Soil: • The majority of GM agricultural products are developed specifically for toxinresistance - namely for higher doses of herbicides/ pesticides sold by the largest producer companies • - According to an article by R.J. Goldburg scientists

Soil Sterility and Pollution • Scientists found GM bacterium meant to break down wood chips, corn stalks and lumber wastes to produce ethanol which rendered the soil sterile. • It killed essential soil nutrients, robbing the soil of nitrogen and killed nitrogen capturing fungi. • The pollution was found to last up to 8 months with depressed microbial activity.

• Genetically modified foods affect the human physiology. A study of people in the Philippines reported that their bodies developed antibodies to Bt toxin. • What this means is that, the human body processed these engineered traits into their guts and reacted to them. • These same consumers of the GMO corn in the Philippines also developed a resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin.

Extinction of Seed Varieties: • A few years ago Time Magazine referred to the massive trend by large corporations to buy up small seed companies, destroying any competing stock, and replacing it with their patented or controlled brands.

Animal Bio-invasions: • Fish and marine life are threatened by accidental release of GM fish currently under development in several countries - trout, carp, and salmon several times the normal size and growing up to 6x times as fast. . One such accident has already occurred in the Philippines - threatening local fish supplies.

Killing Beneficial Insects: • Studies have shown that GM products can kill beneficial insects -Swiss government researchers found Bt crops killed lacewings that ate the cotton worms which the Bt targeted. • A study reported in 1997 by New Scientist indicates honeybees may be harmed by feeding on proteins found in GM canola flowers

Terminator Technology: • Plants are being genetically produced with no annual replenishing of perennial seeds so farmers will become wholly dependent on the seed provider.

• In the past Monsanto had farmers sign agreements that they would not collect seeds.

Lower Yields and More Pesticides Used With GM Seeds: • Contrary to claims, a Rodale study shows that the best of organic farming techniques - using rich natural compost - can produce higher drought resistance as well as higher yielding plants than with current technological attempts.

The Horror Story of Conventional Agriculturural Industry

 Has robs our daily food of over 60 natural and crucial vital trace elements without which we sicken and die.  Conventional agriculture add poison to our daily food, to the air we breath, to the water we drink, and to the soil which we grow our crops.

The Horror Story of Commercial Animal Husbandry • Which laces our daily food with powerful growth and female hormones. • Hormones which accelerated growthincluding cancer, push young girls and boys into puberty, and feminize males. • This powerful antibiotics fed routinly to livestock, have made many strains of deadly bacteria immune to these deadly drugs.

The Horror Story of Genetically Modiefied Organism (GMO) in our Food • Using Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) in food production is harmful to human health and environment. • GMO causes seizures, brain lesions, cancers, organ failure, sterility, stillborn, miscarriages, birth defects, 50% infant mortality rates, and even death!

Summary • When severe deficiency or lack of 60 crucial elements in our daily food is by far the largest cause of most diseases. • When the plants are difficent themselves, the human body is difficent itself, it’s then attacked by diseases. The foods we have to eat must have both mineral and enzymes.

Facts About the Food we Eat “You Are What You Eat”

Facts about Commercial Chicken and Egg Roxarsone – an Arsenic based additive used in Chicken Feed could pose health risk to human. Arsenic has been linked to bladder, lung, skin, kidney and colon cancer and could lead to partial paralysis and diabetes.

Facts about Commercial Chicken and Egg

 Arsenic – acts as a growth stimulant in chickens-develops the meat faster. Arsenic can also lead to prostate cancers, cause neurological,cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and immune system abnormalities.

Health Implications of Arsenic • Arsenic-based drug, known as roxarsone, which was commonly mixed with poultry feed. • Such life-threatening conditions as type 2 diabetes, bladder, lung and skin cancer, as well as heart disease and cognitive deficiencies have been linked to the dangerous compound.

Arsenic, caffeine, banned antibiotics, pharmaceuticals and more found in chickens  chickens are regularly given roxarsone, what amounts to arsenic, in an attempt to both fight parasites and increase the growth rate of chickens while making the flesh of the chicken that certain “appetizing” shade of pink.

Studies show that arsenic is a more potent cancer promoter than first believed. It has to do with its effect on blood vessels. The reason that arsenic makes white meat pinker is that it increases the growth of blood vessels in the meat. The more blood, the pinker the color.

• “Chicken are GENETICALLY

MODIFIED with hormones, carcinogens, GMOs, corn pills, arsenic and drugs so they become LARGER FASTER and as a result they often CRIPPLE under their own weights”

• “These chickens or turkeys suffer with ammonia, bronchitis, weakened immune system, failed organs or respiratory problems during their short lives s until they get slaughtered”

• “One out of three kids born after the year 2000 is OBESE. Consuming all these hormones, drugs, antibiotics, GMOs and carcinogens have caused chronic diseases including obesity, cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes”. • Now our children at the age of 10 are diagnosed with diabetes, plaque buildup in their arteries and many other chronic diseases.

Facts about Free Range Eggs • Recent tests conducted by Mother Earth News magazine have shown once again that eggs from chickens that range freely on pasture provide clear nutritional benefits over eggs from confinement operations.

Eggs from pastured hens are far richer in vitamin D • Eggs from hens raised outdoors on pasture have from three to six times more vitamin D than eggs from hens raised in confinement. Pastured hens are exposed to direct sunlight, which their bodies convert to vitamin D and then pass on to the eggs.

Organic Eggs • This latest good news about eggs comes from a study just released by Mother Earth News, a magazine that plays a leading role in promoting health-enhancing, natural foods. The editors found that eating just two eggs will give you from 63126% of the recommended daily intake of vitamin D.

October/November 2007 issue of Mother Earth News • Results showed the pastured eggs contained an amazing: • 1/3 less cholesterol than commercial eggs • 1/4 less saturated fat • 2/3 more vitamin A • 2 times more omega-3 fatty acids • 7 times more beta carotene

British Study in 1974 • Eggs from free-range hens are higher in folic acid and vitamin B12

Pastured Poultry Get a Bounty of Vitamin E from Grass • An egg from a pastured hen has 30 percent more vitamin E than the kind you buy in the supermarket.

• . Vitamin E deficiencies have been linked with diabetes, immune disorders, AIDS, muscle damage in exercise, Parkinson's disease, eye diseases, and lung and liver diseases.

Egg yolks are the richest known source of lutein and zeaxanthin, essential vitamins not found in your multi-vitamin tablet • Eggs are gaining new respect from nutritionists, partly for their abundance of two carotenes --lutein and zeaxanthin. • These antioxidant vitamins are essential for the protection of the macula, an area of the retina that provides our best central vision. Eggs are the richest known source. "Macular degeneration,"

Egg yolks are the richest known source of lutein and zeaxanthin, essential vitamins not found in your multi-vitamin tablet • According to a recent study, "Of all the carotenoids investigated, only lutein and zeaxanthin showed a protective effect against colon cancer, with an enhanced effect in younger people."

Facts about the Meat we Eat • Meat and dairy products from grass-fed ruminants are the richest known source of another type of good fat called "conjugated linoleic acid" or CLA. (Potent Cancer Fighter)

• When ruminants are raised on fresh pasture alone, their products contain from than three to five times more CLA products from animals fed conventional

Facts about the Meat we Eat These animals hardly chew their food when it is first swallowed. But they have four stomachs that digest and regurgitate food through a special process that allows complete digestion. The major ruminants are cows, sheep and goats.

Facts about the Meat we Eat A cow takes 24 hours to digest what's eaten, and it is able to get rid of excess toxins during the digestive process. The pig's digestive system doesn't allow for this, and the toxins are carried into the fat cells and organs of the pig itself.

Facts about Grass Feed Meat A Extra Omega-3s. Meat from grass-fed animals has two to four times more omega-3 fatty acids than meat from grain- fed animals. Omega-3s are called "good fats" because they play a vital role in every cell and system in your body. For example, of all the fats, they are the most heartfriendly.

When cattle are taken off omega-3 rich grass and shipped to a feedlot to be fattened on omega-3 poor grain, they begin losing their store of this beneficial fat.

Facts about Fish • Studies indicate that eating fish once or twice each week may help reduce blood cholesterol levels, leading cause of atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), major factor in the development of heart disease.

Facts About Fish

• Fish with scales and fins are equipped with digestive system that prevents the absorption of poisons and toxins into their flesh. • Fish without scales and fins are designed to absorb toxins from the water

Facts About Fish

• Fresh wild fish, fresh water/ocean caught fish is best • Farm raised fish are usually given inappropriate feed, such as soy pellets contain pesticides residues. • Makes sure the fish have fins and scales

Facts About Fish

• Farm raised fish were feed with mercury and PCB’s (Polychlorinated Bipheyls) “probable human carcinogen”, according to EPA. • Farm raised fish are held in containment cells, which don’t allow adequate space for swimming. • They are prone to disease, requiring antibiotics, which we consume when we eat them.

Facts About Shells Avoid shellfish, clams, oyster, mussels, scallops, snails, shrimps, lobster, crabs. They are “bottom feeders” and scavengers and studies shown them to be filters and retainers of toxins. Dr Namin: 1.5-2 liters of water is filtered through oysters daily

White Rice • White rice is made by removing the outer shells, or hulls, from brown rice.

• The hull contains all of the fiber, and is a rich source of antioxidants, B vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients.

• The hull is what gives the rice its timerelease properties,

White Rice

• A team of researchers led by Qi Sun, MD, at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, found eating white rice on daily basis could boost high risk for developing type 2 diabetes and also causing obesity.

• White rice has a lower content of nutrients

Health Alert on Sugar • When you eat polished white rice, white bread cookies, donuts – you are eating a high starch (High sugar) food alike.

Nutritionally Deficient • During the refining process of wheat the germ and the bran is removed so that all that is left is flour. This means that the most nutritious part of the grain including fiber, vitamins and minerals is lost.

Health Alert on Sugar • Bleached- it has to be bleached to retain its whiteness that is lost during the milling process. • The starches in bread get broken down quickly in the digestive tract and enter the bloodstream as glucose. This causes a rapid spike in blood sugar and insulin levels. • Even whole wheat bread spikes blood sugar faster than many candy bars.

• Sugar Content of Softdrinks (1.2 tbsp of sugar per ounce) • • • •

8 oz. = 9.6 tbs. 12 oz = 14.4 tbs 500 ml = 20 tbs. 1000 ml = 40 tbs.

• 1 can of soda has about 10 tbsp sugar, 150 calories, 30 to 55 mg of caffeine, loaded with artificial food colors

• 30 tsps of sugar = no immune system for 24 hours

• Studies have consistently shown that heavy drinkers of softdrinks spill huge amounts of calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals into the urine.

One diet soda a day increases leukemia, multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin lymphomas

• The combined results of this new study showed that just one 12-fl oz. can (355 ml) of diet soda daily leads to: - 42 percent higher leukemia risk in men and women (pooled analysis) - 102 percent higher multiple myeloma risk (in men only)

More mineral loss, the greater the risk for osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, hypothyroidism, coronary artery diseases, high blood pressure and long list of degenerative disease associated with premature aging.

Facts About Refined Sugars • Sugar is a cancer cell's favorite food. Even without having cancer, we all have a few cancer cells floating around. • Research shows that sugar is a perfect fuel for cancer cells. • The same goes for refined sugars, which

Refined sugars • Refined Sugar - The bleached, nutritionallydeficient byproduct of cane processing. • During sugar cane processing, nearly all the minerals and vitamins end up in the blackstrap molasses that's usually fed to farm animals.

143 Ways that Sugar can Ruin our Health

By Nancy Appleton, PhD -- Author of Lick the Sugar Habit

1. Sugar can suppress the immune system. 2. Sugar upsets the mineral relationships in the body. 3. Sugar can cause hyperactivity, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, and crankiness in children. 4. Sugar can produce a significant rise in triglycerides. 5. Sugar contributes to the reduction in defense against bacterial infection (infectious diseases). 6. Sugar causes a loss of tissue elasticity and function, the more sugar you eat the more elasticity and function you loose. 7. Sugar reduces high density lipoproteins. 8. Sugar leads to chromium deficiency. 9. Sugar leads to cancer of the breast, ovaries, prostate, and rectum. 10.Sugar can increase fasting levels of glucose. 11.Sugar causes copper deficiency. 12. Sugar interferes with absorption of calcium and magnesium. 13.Sugar can weaken eyesight. 14.Sugar raises the level of neurotransmitters: dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. 15.Sugar can cause hypoglycemia.

Monosodium Glutamate Studies have indicated that MSG can cause severe allergies and even brain damage. It also linked to eye damage, headaches, fatigue, migraine, hyperacidity, disorientation and depression.

Dr. Blaylock says: MSG may only be a contributing factor in starting brain diseases, but can make major neurological afflictions worse: Alzheimers, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinsons Disease and Stroke.

Some of the serious side effects associated with free glutamate include: brain damage allergic reactions migraines cancer damage to unborn child Alzheimers disease free radical damage that can lead to heart attacks or strokes • asthma attacks • • • • • • •

• heart disease • fertility problems in both men and women • seizures • swelling of the brain • weight gain • memory loss • facial swelling • Type 2 diabetes • and more….

Caffeine – A Legal Drug that Hurts

Coffee - Caffeine also interferes with the kidney's function of reabsorbing calcium; effectively, this promotes kidney stones

Softdrinks - habitual intake of soft drink can lead to kidney stones formation. increase the Kidney Cysts in size and in number

Tea - Iced tea contains massive amounts of calcium oxalates, which also serve as the prime constituent of kidney stones.

Chocolates - has been associated with kidney stones, the kidneys are unable to flush them out of the system.

Energy Drinks - avoid energy drinks due to the high caffeine. worsen the inflammation in kidneys and increase the Kidney Cysts in size and in number

Pain Reliever - Taking too many painkillers can damage some people's kidneys permanently, scientists claim.

Facts About Water Water sustain life. Approximately 70%-80% of our body is water.

Water adjusts the body's temperature and assist in digestion. Water removes toxins from the body and also makes necessary body fluids.

Pure Water • Distilled water is an active absorber and when it contacts with the air, it absorbs carbon dioxide, making it acidic.

• The more distilled water a person drinks, the higher the body acidity becomes. • The longer one drinks distilled water, the more likely the development of mineral deficiencies and an acidic state which is very good for cancer growth.

Facts about Junk Foods

Harmful Effects Of Junk Foods Lack of Energy: Junk foods do not contain any nutrients that are beneficial to the human body

Poor Concentration - When a person consumes junk food in excess, a major portion of blood in the body is diverted to the intestine. As a result, the person feels drowsy and suffers with reduced concentration. Heart Diseases: Another harmful factor present in junk foods is excess concentration of sugars and salt. Excessive concentration of sodium ions causes an increased heart blood pressure. Liver Failure: Even liver gets damaged due to presence of ingredients such as fat, cholesterol and salt inside the junk foods. Diabetes: Junk foods also cause damage to the pancreas resulting in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).

Cancer Causing Foods Most popular and widespread food products that are least healthy items you put into your mouth. AVOID THEM.

• Cancer is the second leading cause of death for Americans. According to the American Cancer Society, a total of 1,529,560 new cancer cases and 569,490 deaths from cancer were estimated to have occurred in the United States in 2010. • Among men, the top three cancer diagnoses are prostate cancer, lung cancer, and colorectal cancer. The leading types of cancer among women are breast cancer, lung cancer, and colorectal cancer.

Alarming Rise of Cancer Incidence

According Data :2010  In 1900 Cancer to was: OECD Health  In 1982 187.3 cases practically unheard  In 1993 : 220 cases  In 1950 : 150 cases in  In 2000 : it has every 100,000. climbed to 321 cases of Cancer per  In 1970: 162 cases 100 ,000  In 1971, President Nixon  Today, 1 in every 3 declares Wars on Cancer population have a chance put billion of dollar per of getting Cancer if or year to conduct research lifestyle is not change to fight cancer

1. Hot Dogs • Because they are high in Sodium Nitrates, the Cancer Prevention Coalition advises that children eat no more than 12 hot dogs a month. • During the digestion process, sodium nitrite is converted into nitrosamine which is carcinogenic. This is where the cancer begins.

Hot Dogs • The latest research done at the University of California at Irvine, showed that children who eat only as many as 12 hot dogs a month, only three a week had 10 to 12 times higher incidence of leukemia and brain tumours.

2. Processed Meats and Bacon • Also high in the same sodium nitrates found in hot dogs, bacon, and other processed meats raise. Sodium nitrite increases the risk of leukemia, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, brain tumors and more.

3. Doughnuts and Cakes • Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble. First, they are made with white flour, sugar, and hydrogenated oils, then fried at high temperatures. Doughnuts, may be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your risk of cancer.

4. French Fries • Like doughnuts, French fries are made with hydrogenated oils and then fried at high temperatures.

• They also contain cancer- causing acryl amides which occur during the frying process.  They should be called cancer fries, not French fries

5. Chips, crackers, and cookies • All are usually made with white flour and sugar… Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of trans-fats generally contain small amounts of trans-fats.

6. Pickled Vegetables • Makes vulnerable to tumor in esophagus (esophageal adenocarcinoma)

7. Smoked Foods • Can cause tumors in the stomach (cancer in the stomach) because of carcinogen substance called: “Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) that form in the surface of the food during the smoking process.

8.Grilled or charcoal meat, barbecued meat/ charred food • Is found to be one of the unhealthy foods because they produce chemicals called “Hetrocyclic Amines” or HCAs

9. White Bread, Pasta • Anything that is white is unhealthy because white is equal to processed. White bread and pasta come from bleached flour.

10. Sodas / softdrinks • Loaded with calories, sugar and artificial ingredients and has no nutritional benefit. Double softdrinks risk of pancreatic cancer.

11. Artificial Sweeteners such as: Aspartame, Saccharine Sucralose • Aspartame is around 200 times sweeter than sugar. There are also a wide range of side effects from ingesting Aspartame including headaches, joint pain, rashes, heart palpitations, hives, weight gain, fatigue, tinnitus and irritability. • Aspartame has been linked to obesity, chronic memory and Alzheimer’s disease. Ingesting one diet coke a day has been shown to cause an increased chance of developing lymphoma or leukemia.

12. Farmed fish • Fish farms produce supermarket protein with high concentrations of antibiotics, pesticides and lower levels of healthy nutrients. Another study, conducted at the University of New York at Albany found that dioxin levels in farm-raised salmon are 11 times higher than those in wild salmon. • Dioxins are one of the “dirty dozen,” says the World Health Organization (WHO) because they are highly toxic and are stored for a long time in the body: their half life in fat cells is 7 to 11 years. • Dioxins impair the endocrine, immune, nervous and reproductive systems and are carcinogens.

13. Artificial Colors and Flavors

• Found in diet sodas, gum, and many other “sugar free” foods, artificial sweeteners can be incredibly damaging to your health.

• Aspartame is known to convert to formaldehyde – the same chemical used to preserve dead bodies – when consumed, it leads to further

14. Excessive Alcohol

GMO Products • Genetically modified organisms are an open invitation to disease, cancer, and infertility. What a person consumes is what they become.

• Eating nutrient-void, formaldehyde-laden GMO corn is beckoning a disease-ridden population. • There is enough evidence

GMO Milk and Diary’s  Some dairy products such as whole milk, cheese have high saturated fat content.  Commercially produced milk may contain concomitants such as pesticides, which have carcinogenic potential and growth factor such as Insulin Like Growth Factor (IGF)1, which have shown

HYDROGENATED OIL • When oil are heated in the presence of hydrogen and metal catalyst this makes them hydrogenated. This process helps prolong shelf life but simultaneously creates trans fats.

• Trans fats promotes heart disease interrupt metabolic processes and cause belly fat that crowd the organs and strain the heart.

Health risk of HYDROGENATED OIL • Increase In the level Of LDLs - these ‘monstrous’ cholesterol can result in the congestion of blood vessels as they form deposits on the arterial walls. The result – the increase in the risks associated with the onset of stroke, heart attack and coronary artery disorders. • Inflammation towards injuries • Cardiac Diseases ( heart attack and stroke) • Cancer (breast and prostate cancer) • Diabetes Type II (developing insulin dependent diabetes)

Health effects caused by hydrogenated oils • Directly promotes heart disease • Promotes cancers: breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer • Raises LDL (bad) cholesterol and lower HDL (good) cholesterol • Raises blood sugar levels and promotes weight gain • Impairs brain function and damages brain cells • Accelerates tumor growth • Accelerates the progress of type-2 diabetes

Health effects caused by hydrogenated oils • Promotes attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) • Causes gallbladder disease • Causes liver disease • Clogs blood, makes blood cells stick together • Clogs artery walls and promotes atherosclerosis • Causes high blood pressure

Acrylamides Factor • Acrylamides are not added into food, they are created during the frying process. When starch food are subjected to high heat, Acrylamides form. • A Swedish study found that Acrylamides cause Cancer in rats and more studies conform that Acrylamides also cause cancer in humans.

• Acrylamide is the powerful carcinogen that gets formed when carbohydrates and proteins are cooked together at high temperature, as in dark toast, French fries, and potato chips. • Canada recently added acrylamide to its list of toxic substances. The European Union has just listed it as hazardous chemical a

Benefits of Organic Agriculture to Human Health

What is Organic Farming? • Organic farming is the production of crops and livestock without the use of synthetic chemicals and in-organic fertilizers.

160

• It focuses on using fertile soil along with a variety of crops to maintain healthy growing conditions which produce a food with more nutrients. • Animals reared on organic farms are treated properly with room to behave like animals and are fed healthy food sources not laden with drugs and other chemicals.

• Organic agriculture is healthy for the farmers who produces our foods to the environment because it avoids poisonous chemicals for consumers, who eat the organic 162

Health Benefits of Organic Farming

Better Health • Since organic food is not prepared using chemical fertilizers and pesticides, it does not contain any traces of these strong chemicals that might not affect the human body.

Better Taste • People strongly believe that organic food tastes better than non organic food. The prominent reason for this belief is that it is produced using organic means of production. Further organic food is often sold locally resulting in availability of fresh produce in the market.

Environment Safety • As harmful chemicals are not used in organic farming, there is minimal soil, air and water pollution; thus ensuring a safe world for future generations to live in.

Animal Welfare • Animal welfare is an important aspect of producing organic milk, organic meat, organic poultry, and organic fish. • People feel happy that the animals are not confined to a miserable caged life while eating organic animal products.

Animal Welfare • Animal welfare is an important aspect of producing organic milk, organic meat, organic poultry, and organic fish. • People feel happy that the animals are not confined to a miserable caged life while eating organic animal products.

Higher nutrient content and concentration • Organically grown fruits and vegetables contain higher

nutritional content than commercially farmed produce. Different studies have shown organic produce to have nutritional concentrations ranging from 30% more to 3 times as much as their commercially grown counterparts.

• Organic plant-based foods (fruits, vegetables, grains) contain higher levels of eight of 11 nutrients studied, including significantly greater concentrations of health-promoting polyphenols and antioxidants. • Organic food contains phenolic compounds, which protects our heart from cardiovascular diseases and reduces the risk of cancer.

• Because of this, the food produced are now called “Power Charged” foods. • Organic foods contain more phytochemicals that are called “Medicinal Foods.” “Let food be thy medicine and Medicine be thy food”

Hippocrates, Father of Medicine, 431 B.C.

The Healthiest Food on the Planet - Superfoods “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food” Hippocrates,

Father of Medicine, 431 B.C.

Genesis 1:29 • Then God said, “I have given you every seedbearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food”.

Hippocrates,

Father of Medicine, 431 B.C. Hippocrates was a Greek Nutritionist, Physician and Surgeon who lived from approximately 460 B.C. until around 370 B.C. He is considered “The Father of Medicine” and is credited as being the first physician who believed that diseases were not caused by superstition or gods, but rather that diseases had natural causes.

• Last August 2012, archaeologists discovered a wooden box full of medicine in a 2,000 year-old sunken ship off the coast of Tuscany. • The ship was believed to have sank around 130 B.C., well over 2,000 years ago. It was transporting wine, glassware, lams, and ceramics. Inside a wooden box, preserved deep under the sea, was a collection of pills.

• “It’s a spectacular find. They were very well sealed. The plants and vegetables were probably crushed with a mortar and pestle – we could still see the fibres in the tablets. They also contained clay, which even today is used to treat gastrointestinal problems,” said Dr Alain Touwaide, from the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in Washington DC. • To this day, many of the components found within these ancient pills are still used to treat modern ailments—including clay for upset stomachs, celery for rheumatism, and onion for infections.

• The pills contained all natural plants and materials including crushed celery, onions, carrots, cabbage, alfalfa, chestnuts, radish, yarrow, parsley, nasturtium, hibiscus, and clay. • . The finding marks the oldest known remains of ancient medicines that herbs are not considered as an “alternative medicine”, that nature have been providing millennia and can be trusted to provide it today.
