Vitamin C: We all know this is an important vitamin.
What we haven't been told is that vitamin C is contained in meats and
proteins like eggs, cheese, and steak! Eskimos live just fine eating
virtually no fruits and vegetables during long their winters. Furthermore,
the Mongols, the fiercest warriors that ever lived, ate no fruits, vegetables,
or grains. They only ate meat and natural fats. Don't ever think that
you need to consume lots of fruits and vegetables to get vitamin C.
• Vitamin B 12 & B complex:
These essential vitamins are contained in meats and animal-based protein.
All strict vegetarians and vegans suffer from a vitamin B12 deficiency.
There is no need for supplementation if you eat meat! If you take a
supplement, there is no guarantee your system can make use of it as
efficiently as it would by getting it naturally from meat.
• Niacin: Another
B vitamin that is naturally found in meat.
• Folic Acid: This
is a vitamin only used in extremely small, micronutrient quantities
(millionths of a gram). That means only an extremely small amount is
required. It occurs in vegetables and grains, and to a lesser extent
in meats. Therefore, over the past 20 years, with so many Americans
eating mainly a carbohydrate diet, no one should have a deficiency.
Something is wrong when they claim that lack of this micronutrient is
a significant issue. You have much more important nutritional issues
to address than folic acid.
• Phytonutrients:
These "nutrients" are found in plants and are anything but
good! Genestein and deidzein are 2 "phytonutrients " (termed
phytoestrogens) and are MAJOR ENDOCRINE DISRUPTORS! They harm your pancreas
and thyroid. Read the "Soy Fiction" Report for the TRUTH .
•
Energreens or Supergreens type of drink: Would you ever
eat grass? Of course not. It tastes awful and you can't digest it like
a cow, which needs 4 stomachs to do so. Then what would lead you to
think that grass "juice" or ground up grass is good for you?
Because we can't digest them, they actually force your system to incur
a "toxic shock" similar to someone pointing a gun to your
head and claiming that you’ve got more energy from it! It's the
same effect with these green drinks. So don't be fooled. The toxic reaction
is the reason for the so-called "high" followed by a corresponding
"low" resulting from your system exhausting itself to get
rid of it. There are much better ways to develop energy, naturally.
• Wheat Grass: This
is just another grass drink as stated above. Regardless of what they
may tell you in the health store, drinking this awful tasting substance
promotes a toxic reaction and always gives you a “high”
then a long lasting "low" after drinking it. Nothing beneficial
should ever cause you to be tired afterwards. Don't believe that you
need to take more of it to get the "high" again. This is simply
deceptive marketing.
• Green Algae: Algae
grows in sewage. Need I say more? No animal eats this stuff except a
very special breed of algae-eating fish. It is toxic to you the same
as the grass drinks above. It doesn’t contain enough of anything
in adequate amounts to be beneficial to a human being, even if it wasn't
hazardous to consume.
• Spirolina: This
is just another "species" of algae. Don't go near it.
• Noni Juice: Another
of the so-called "miracle" drinks. This is simply a fruit
juice. You can do much better with an herbal tea termed Essiac®.
• Juice Plus type of product
(fruits and veggies packed into a capsule): Would you ever eat
10 pounds of fruit and vegetables in a single day? No. There is nothing
beneficial to taking ground up fruits and vegetables in a capsule form.
For the very reasons already mentioned, that you get much more benefit
eating the animal that ate the plant, rather than overloading on ground-up,
processed plants stuffed into capsule form. It may sound good, but you
can do much better.
• Fish Oil: The
press is loaded with news about the toxins in fish oil. Even worse is
the fact that fish oil is 100% omega 3 derivatives, which is not what
your system wants or needs. Regardless of what you may read, it is actually
very harmful. You can do substantially better with organically raised
seed-based oils containing the proper balance of “parent”
omega 6 and “parent” omega 3. Read "The Scientific
Basis of the Optimal Omega 6/3 Ratio."
• Powdered Protein Drinks: The
only reason for these drinks is because people were scared of the fat
in real meat, and are led to believe that a powdered protein drink gives
you more protein than real meat (ridiculous!). Natural fat is very beneficial
(see Health and Nutrition Timeline report). Furthermore, by consuming
liquid drinks you are teaching your digestive system to be very lazy
and this could put you in serious trouble later in life. There is no
need at all for "pre-digested" protein. Lastly, there is not
enough protein in these drinks to be significant. The form that it is
in is highly questionable as to its metabolic efficiency. Eat the steaks,
eggs, cheese, nuts, and lunchmeats. Don't ever consume a "powdered
or liquid" meal in their place.
• Low Carb Diet Vitamins:
This is just another attempt to create a new market because few people
understand nutritional science. Carbs offer very little in terms of
nutrition that you don't get from protein and natural fats. The scientific
fact is you don't need these vitamins. Your nutritional needs are much
better met by eating low-carb than they ever were on a high-carb/low-protein/low-fat/low-calorie
diet.
• Cortisol: This
is a hormone. Big deal. Do you think that there was no stress for the
past 50 years and that stress is something new? That is absurd. This
is utter nonsense and when you read their advertisements, they never
give you the actual amount of the weight loss. Never forget that 10
times nothing is still, nothing! You can do much better in your search
for nutritional products that really work.
• Coral Calcium: Calcium
is calcium. There is nothing "special" about this whatsoever.
Don't believe the drama that it’s better because it comes from
Okinawa. Calcium is UNNECESSARY anyway. No one in this country is “deficient”
as we are lead to believe. Again, this is deceptive marketing. There
is a lot of calcium in our diet, and taking a supplement could lead
to an overdose in your system. Also, calcium actually contributes to
harder, more brittle bones -- it doesn't enter the bone matrix, which
is the real issue. Certain coral calcium supplements claim to increase
oxygen transfer in your cells. Wrong. This is only true from essential
fatty acids (EFAs), not a calcium supplement. Also, there is no reason
to attempt to make your system more “alkaline." Your blood
pH stays within a mere 1/10th of a point (7.35-7.45) no matter what
you eat, or what supplements you take. If your blood pH changed any
more dramatically, you would die. Mother Nature won't let us vary it.
Think about it: food is going into your stomach, which is full of acid!
• Colloidal Silver:
I've heard inconsistent things about this. Silver ,in large doses can
be a real problem. There are many instances where the liquid has turned
users skin slate gray, never to be able to have a normal skin pigment
again. This product is used when you develop an infection, etc. It makes
much more sense to have nutritional products that help the immune system
fight off infection to begin with.
• Multivitamin:
not needed. There is no measure of usability (termed bioavailability)
by the government. Just because "it's in there," doesn't mean
it will be used. Meats and natural fats contain all the vitamins you
need. HOWEVER, mineral deficiency is a different story. Many minerals
are not in the soil in sufficient quantities for a human being. Therefore
a truly-chelated mineral supplement is beneficial for most us.
• Garlic to Naturally lower Cholesterol:
Garlic is great for food but don't count on it doing much else. Studies
are very inconsistent. You can do much better. Soon I will have a report
on cholesterol that will explain the scientific truth about the whole
cholesterol fallacy.
• Chelation Therapy: This
is a process whereby an attempt is made to "de-clog" arteries
via intravenous solutions. The results have been inconsistent. A better
method is to try to ensure that the arteries never clog in the 1st place.
This can only happen via nutritional means.
