The Self Health Revolution

“The bottom line with food is this—your Grandmom was right! “You are what you eat.” In fact, scientists can take fat from your belly, your hips, or your backside, put it under a microscope and tell exactly where your fat came from. They know whether the fat is formed from eating fat from a cow, a pig, lamb, or chicken. Food goes from your lips to your hips and you become exactly what you eat, and as you now know, we are what we eat, eats too (read again more slowly)…

If you’re eating foods raised in poor soils, bombarded with pesticides, fungicides, preservatives, processed, refined, and depleted of nutrients, then that is what your body is going to be made of, simple as that. If you are eating obese, concentration camp animals that have been weaned on cow’s blood, injected with female hormones, medicated with antibiotics, and fed genetically engineered corn, soybean and cotton seeds, laced with slaughterhouse feces and waste and fed their own animal fats, then that is what you will carry around with you in your gut, around your waist, and on your backside. It will all be there with you and it will surely have an effect on your Self Health.”

“Almost all illness and disease comes from two things: Malnutrition (fake food) and toxins (poisons). When the 100 trillion cells of your body are being fed living food, clean water and powerful nutrients, they can function at a level that wards off attacks from all bugs, bacteria and viruses. They simply cannot be defeated. But when the body is fed fake food, depleted of real nutrients and loaded with poisons, it will fight hard, but eventually fail. As I have said before, the greatest testimony to the genius of the human body is its ability to survive the onslaught of fake food we feed it.

I know, some people may be thinking, “This is just too simple, I was looking for a much more complex solution. How could a problem so large have such a simple solution?” Would you be surprised if your car didn’t run well after you peed in your gas tank? Or what if I put sawdust in your oil? Better yet, what if I shoved mud up your tailpipe? Would you be shocked if your car didn’t crank after such abuse? Our bodies are much more complex and sensitive than our cars.”

“The average American eats over 200 lbs. of meat every year. I grew up thinking I had not eaten a meal unless I consumed a pretty big piece of meat. If you were raised like me, you might think eating a lot of meat and dairy (proteins) is absolutely necessary for strong bones and muscles. If you do even a little bit of research, you will quickly discover that this is just not true. Think about it, the biggest animals—gorillas, elephants, rhinos, hippos—all eat predominantly fruits and vegetables. Where did they get the protein to make their muscles so big? Fruits and vegetables are some of the most powerful protein-rich foods found anywhere.

All protein is derived from sunlight shining down on plants. Plants absorb the sun’s energy and turn it into protein. The cow didn’t eat another cow to get its muscles—unless it’s from a concentration camp—the cow ate grass. Which food do you think has more protein? A serving of 100 calories of sirloin steak or 100 calories of broccoli? If you chose steak you would be wrong. Broccoli has twice as much protein as sirloin steak. What do you think has more calcium, milk or turnip greens? You probably can guess by now—yes, it’s the turnip greens. Nevertheless, because we have been programmed to consume big meat portions with very few fruits and vegetables—that’s how most Americans eat these days. Could this be the reason we are getting so sick?”

“In their ground-breaking book, The China Study, called the Grand Prix of all studies of its kind by the New York Times, Tom and Colin Campbell discovered that when people ate a diet of primarily meat and process food, their incident of cancer and chronic illness increased dramatically, but when they ate a diet of primarily plant foods (living foods) with minimal meat and processed foods (dead foods), cancer and chronic illness rates fell and in many cases were virtually non-existent. Poorer countries, which invariably eat few animal products, have less than 5% of their population dying of heart attacks. The China Study proves that populations that eat a lifelong diet of mostly plant foods have almost no cancer, heart attacks and heart disease. If this is true, that would mean that cancer, heart disease and chronic illness are fruit and vegetable deficiency diseases. Get these living foods in your body and you may not have to worry about dying of one of these dire diseases.”

“Labels lie. You know the so-called low fat 2 percent milk? Well, it’s actually not 2 percent fat at all. Thirty-five percent of its calories come from fat (Worse, it’s only 20-30 calories less than whole milk!). They call it “98% fat free” because they measure it by its weight which includes the water content that contains no real calories at all. It’s like taking a teaspoon of melted butter which is 100% fat and mixing it in a glass of hot water, then labeling the glass of melted fat-water as being “98% fat free.” The truth is, water has no calories and if I were to drink that glass, 100% of the calories would all come from fat. They deceive millions of Americans by playing this trick on us with milk, cheese, beef, chicken, and other products. Don’t believe their big fat lie!”

“What do you think would lower your life expectancy more—smoking or unhappiness? Would you believe they both harm you equally? They both shorten your life by roughly ten years. According to recent studies, smoking two packs of cigarettes a day has the same effect on how long you will live as having a negative view on life. Wow! That’s powerful. If that’s the case, we should demand public awareness campaigns on human unhappiness (like anti-smoking ads).”

“Dr. Daniel G. Amen, a psychiatrist, calls these limiting inner thoughts ANTs (Automatic Negative Thoughts) and just like ants at a picnic (or in your pants), these ANTs can ruin your day and your life. Dr. Amen says we should learn to stomp our ANTs by becoming aware that they exist, shaking them off and squashing them by challenging them, and then replacing them with more positive and affirming thoughts. We must realize we are in control of our thoughts. Whether we will listen or agree with our inner voice or not is clearly within our power. Ask yourself: Is this belief hurting or helping me? Is it getting me closer to what I want or further away? Is it empowering me to take action or freezing me with fear and self-doubt?”

“If I told you there was a little purple pill proven to reduce your risk of cancer by a whopping 41% (cutting your risk of cancer almost in half), would you take it? How much would you be willing to pay for it? Would you want to share this pill with everyone you love and care about?

According to the Journal of National Cancer Institute, there is such a pill. They confirm that men who ate three servings of vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, etc.) a week had a 41% reduced risk of prostate cancer than those who didn’t. There’s your pill—and you don’t even have to visit (or pay) your doctor or your pharmacist. I could literally spend the rest of this book quoting you study after study showing how fruits and vegetables ward off all kinds of diseases and illnesses.”
