Why the Good Old Days Were Good

I am going to assume this guy is drinking mass farmed, store bought pasteurized milk.

Here's a great take on the milk marketing dilemma and should you really be drinking it for your bones. READ HERE.

I was actually looking for fitness tips with the Paleo lifestyle. I'm still looking but I thought this was a good blog post. More on my Paleo interest will come later but it ties in with the low carb mentality.

High Protein Bad for the Colon? Gotta Rebutt This

Another study on low carb dieting hit the news the other day. Check it out here.


Here's my "beef": (ha ha)
1. In the first part of the article the writer already claimed this study proved nothing! It consisted of 17 volunteers and it lasted only 4 weeks.

2. The first group ate 360 grams of carbs in a day. That is disgusting! The low carb group of 22 grams is too low. Remember Dr. Lutz says 72 grams provides perfect blood sugar. The medium carb group had 181 carbs a day which is still too high.

3. Personally, I don't agree with controlling protein or fat. That should be based solely on appetite and satiety.

4. This study noted that the high protein groups had the lowest fiber. There is a myth out there that high fiber foods coming from carbs are good. They are actually too high in carbs for the fiber to be beneficial. Dr. Lutz cited in his book, Life Without Bread, studies that were much better than this one.

5. Who's to say the high protein group wasn't detoxing the high levels of N-nitroso compounds? They may be linked to cancer but their bodies probably had them trapped in their fat cells prior to the study and were finally clearing them out when under the low carb diet.

I just don't buy this article. For the folks who are on the fence or don't really want to give up their carbs, this is just fuel to keep them believing the dangerous health myths about high carb and low fat diets.

65% Are Fat & Sick: Don't Follow This Crowd

• 
  
  Some people are sick.
  Some are sick and don't know it.
  The rest try to live well but hit roadblocks all along the way.
  
  There is something so terribly wrong when a statistic states there are more overweight people than thin people. Yesterday, I was listening to a radio show that was discussing the rarity of overweight school aged children many decades ago. Now, in a classroom of 30 kids, 10 of them are overweight or obese!
  
  As a whole, we are paying attention to very ineffective interventions and ignoring the real problems.
  
  Another complaint I have is this:
  If you google "can you be overweight and healthy" the articles are full of opinions that are all over the place. Some say you can be healthy and overweight and some say there is a very strong risk of metabolic syndrome if the person doesn't already have it. READ MY PAST ARTICLES ON METABOLIC SYNDROME
  
  If 65% of Americans are overweight or obese, we are believing a full set of lies about health and lifestyle.
  
  Here's a short list of lies and poorly disseminated information:
  
  You must take prescription drugs for health risks such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, osteoporosis
  
  High fructose corn syrup, or the new version "corn sugar" is similar to sucrose or table sugar made from cane or beets.
  
  Artifical sweeteners are good choices especially for diabetics
  
  Low fat cooking is healthy
  
  Whole grains are important in the diet
  
  Losing weight only requires eating less and exercising more
  
  The produce aisle is the healthiest place in the grocery store
  
  The food guide pyramid is correct
  
  The American Diabetic Association recommendations are healthy
  
  Children who don't perform well in school have attention problems
  
  Children don't play enough outside
  
  Dairy is important for strong bones
  
  Supplements are not necessary if the diet has variety
  
  There is no easy answer but there are easy explanations. Putting better habits into play is very difficult. The number one thing we have to do is turn our backs on big lobbies. In our capitalistic society we have to give "the little guy" a chance.
  
  Who are the little guys?
  
  Mike Adams and Dr. Joseph Mercola instead of the AMA and other large associations. Mike Adams and Dr. Joseph Mercola are in pursuit of safe, natural health. They point out the dangers of drugs especially the drugs that are taught to be the best way to deal with a disease. Dr. Mercola began selling products not to make money but to pay for the many lawsuits many angry groups file against him. He offers safer, intelligent options and he gets sued. He does win, but it costs him.
  
  Your local farms that grass feed and use organic practices. Mass farming is cheaper but very risky for our environment and health. GMO crops are creating diseases we will be unable to face in the future. Is cancer on the rise because of chemicals in farming and genetically manipulated seeds? By the way, Certified Organic Credentialing is so expensive, many small farms follow organic practices but do not seek the designation. Get to know the owners personally and ask they will proudly talk about their farming practices.
  
  Your local dairy that does not pasteurize. Unpasteurized is the only healthy milk to drink. End of Story. Visit the Real Milk site for more information.
  
  Supplements your natural health practitioners personally take, not products from GNC, Walmart, or Kinneys.We research how the products are made. If you aren't feeling better on store-shelf products, you're not buying bioavailable products. You can buy quality at a fair price, if you are committed to it.
  
  Natural health practitioners who emphasize realistic low carb eating. What does that mean? You have to ask me to find out.
  
  I know how hard it is to shake the health lies you grew up with. I had to go through the same internal fights. But that's what it is: internal. You make the decision to change your mind. But you never have to do it alone. It feels like you are alone, but you've got to stop believing what those 65% believe.

Care is not Fair....So Beware

hnIt is illegal in every U.S. state for a medical doctor to recommend any vitamin, nutrient or food for the prevention or treatment of any disease. Doing so can cause a doctor to have his medical license permanently revoked.

Learn more from Mike Adams' article

What do you think about that? We've heard of local medical doctors who had their careers destroyed because other medical professionals turned them in for talking about natural means for health.

So, don't ask a medical doctor for nutrition advice. It's that simple.

So, how does Dr. Oz get away with it? He talks about "general health." Or does he? You be the judge.

A Story of Three Persecutions READ MORE HERE

The following is directly quoted from www.alternativecancer.us. I give them full recognition for this information.

In 1994 New York alternative healthcare advocates helped pass the Alternative Medical Practice Act designed to help guarantee that people would have access to alternative medical doctors by barring the State of New York from taking away the licenses of Alternative Medical Doctors just because they practiced alternative or non conventional medicine. Despite the passing of this legislation, the Medical Board bureaucrats who found a way to avoid the intent of the law. Alternative medical doctors were once again targeted and eliminated from medicine. Here are three examples:

■Dr. Jennifer Daniels (I briefly volunteered in her office to help her organize her records for her defense. She had files of testimonials praising her.)
■Dr. Rebecca Carley
■Dr. Serafina Corsello


Dr. Jennifer Daniels, MD of Syracuse was brought up on charges after successfully treating a patient with diabetes using only diet and exercise. In spite of a highly publicized study unveiled by the Secretary of Health & Human Services proving that diet and exercise was more effective than drug treatment. Eventually Dr. Daniels got her license back after it was suspended for two years, but the cost was devastating. The doctor was financially depleted and no medical employer was willing to hire her despite impeccable educational & medical credentials(Harvard BA, University of Pennsylvania MD). She is planning on leaving the country And that is a successful case.

Dr. Rebecca Carley, MD from Hicksville, Long Island successfully pioneered a treatment to reverse the injuries from vaccines such as autism and autism spectrum disorders, which have been growing. Dr. Carley has a public access cable TV show "What's Ailing America; Dr. Carley Responds" in which she was able to reach a larger audience warning of the potential dangers of vaccines and other political issues. Dr. Carley's license was suspended in July 2003. The suspension was solely on the basis of her "psychological impairment". This was an arbitrary attempt to control her speech, both medical and political. Dr. Carley's has been doing nutritional and lifestyle counseling, but is facing severe financial hardship.

Dr. Serafina Corsello, MD was one of the best known alternative practitioners. She was on the first advisory commission advising the Office of Alternative Medicine of the NIH in 1992. She published a book "The Ageless Woman", had two large medical centers one in midtown Manhattan and the other in Huntington, Long Island. She has and continues to lecture all over the country and in many parts of the world on nutrition and women's health. Charges were brought against her for too much testing, use of vitamin therapy, Chelation therapy and diagnosing lead toxicity. Unfortunately her lawyer filed the answer to the charges too late and the state deemed that she admitted to all the charges. Her medical license was revoked.


Write Not Practice
To avoid such prosecution, doctors who have realized that alternatives are better than pharmaceuticals, often write books or newsletters about alternative treatments. This allows these doctors do what they always wanted: help people conquer their health challenges and keep them safe. These doctors have realized that alternative treatments are easy enough for patients to self-administer as long as the patient is educated regarding possible side effects.
----------------------------------
Chiropractors are nutritional counselors under their New York State licenses. They recommend nutrition for health maintenance. Other health consultants also can provide nutritional counseling in NYS as long as they do not call themselves certified nutritionists or dieticians.

Thankfully, there are options for the consumer for safe, natural health care. It takes a personal commitment and you can't rely on insurance. Read here how unethical medical billing has pospered allowing a medical monopoly in the health care market place to block people from common sense health care.

If you read about Melinna Giannini's experience, you will see how insurance will pay $15,000 for care that does not work, but deny someone a $500 solution. There is nothing illegal about paying out of pocket for your own care, but robbing the public of their insurance premiums is another story.

Please continue to educate yourself on health care issues. It is important for each of us to look at the true successes and failures in health care. Don't always follow the crowd. We have dangerous social conditioning at work. Visit The Myth of the Month for more informaiton.
