Vitamin Deficiencies and Vitamin Toxicities.

Analysis and Discussion of the Vegetarian Diet Shown Above.

The vegetarian diet is dangerously deficient in all fat soluble vitamins, A, D, and K, because of the low 10 to 20% fat content and the typical vegetarian foods normally eaten. The vitamin E content is marginal, which is surprising given the generous amount of whole grains in the typical diet above. Vegetarian typically think they get a lot of vitamin E in the grains. This is not the case.

Vegetarian women suffer worse deficiencies than those shown above because they may eat only half as much as the 2524 calories.

A typical vegan diet is high in grains which should contribute to higher than necessary levels of iron and phosphorus, but hair analysis proves the iron and phosphorus are not absorbed on a cellular level. The excess iron in the digestive tract also prevents the uptake of selenium and zinc even when the intake of these minerals is near normal. The high phytic acid intake increases the likelihood of deficiencies of chromium, vanadium, lithium, and zinc. The RDA (recommended daily allowance) on the food label doesn't mean much when the minerals cannot be absorbed by the body. Whole grains cause mineral deficiencies.

Customers in a health food store who are vegetarians can easily be identified. They simply look malnourished. Muscle tone is poor. The arms on women and children look like sticks with skin, but the biggest giveaway is the skin tone. They are a ghostly gray. One glance at them reveals they are iron deficient. They shouldn't bother with a blood test. Heme iron gives the skin a pink or reddish tone. Iron in the meat gives supermarket beef the rich red color. The iron deficiency in a vegan can be seen by the gray skin tone.

Initial Vegetarian Euphoric Surge of Energy:

People often report a awesome surge in energy and mental euphoria when they become a vegetarian. This is true, and for good reason. The euphoric surge is due the sudden jump in carbohydrates in the diet to about 80% of the calories. Fruits and vegetables are 100% carbohydrate. Grains and legumes have some protein and fat, but the majority of calories are from carbohydrates. They eat soy products in an attempt to prevent a protein deficiency, but most soy products are also high in carbohydrates and low in fats. The vegetarian diet naturally shuns protein and fats when they eliminate meat from the diet. Meat is all protein and fats without any carbohydrates.

The outrageously high level of carbohydrates in the vegetarian diet gives a blood sugar high causing insulin and adrenal hormones to spike. They feel awesome for a while, until they burnout the adrenal and thyroid glands.

Adrenal and Thyroid Burnout:

Vegetarians eventually blow out their adrenal, thyroid, and pancreatic glands. Adrenal exhaustion and hypothyroidism occur quickly, usually before the vegetarians reach the fifth-year anniversary of their religious diet. The development of diabetes takes a few more years. Vegetarians who eat more fruits and grains become sick faster than those who emphasize low-carbohydrate vegetables. The vegetarian diet causes the balance of minerals to become abnormal as can be revealed by hair analysis.

Vegetarianism and Body Chemistry --- A Research Report based on Hair Analysis.

The iron, zinc, phosphorus, sodium, and potassium are generally low in the hair analysis of a vegetarian. The elevated minerals are generally copper, calcium, and magnesium. Adrenal burnout is indicated when sodium and potassium levels are both low, and the sodium-to-potassium ratio is less than 2.3/1. Iron deficiency in vegetarians is common because they do not get the healthy heme iron from meat.

Vegetarians attempt to correct the mineral abnormalities by taking supplements of the minerals that test low. This approach consistently shows poor results. The high-fiber, high-carbohydrate diet of the vegetarian continually works against a normal, healthy mineral balance.

Collapse of Little Miss Vegan College Coed:

Little Miss Vegan College Coed didn't eat much meat in high school. Upon entering college she was finally on her own, free to finally live the "healthy lifestyle" without condemnation from her family. At last she could become a true VEGAN - yeah! Meat, saturated fat, cholesterol, and all animal products would be barred from her life. She was exuberant, ecstatic, and bubbling over with her new religion -- the worship of animals and Mother Earth. Free at last!

Little Miss Vegan College Coed got lots of support on campus for her new lifestyle. Her biology professor (female) confirmed that humans evolved from pot-bellied vegetarian apes. She also said humans cannot digest meat, that It actually putrefies in the gut after many days, where it causes heart disease and cancer. She had more books in the campus library about her new vegan lifestyle than she could ever read, in addition to hundreds of Internet websites. Her on-campus vegan support group was a big help too.

She took up jogging like everyone else -- run, run, run. Her new diet was yummy tofu spinach and lettuce salad, rice milk, low-fat soy milk, whole grain cereals, pasta, bagels, beans, barley grass, baked rice, and tempeh casserole, French lentils with onions and carrots, Basmati rice, black-eyed peas with sunflower seeds, tofu fajitas, sugar plum tofu with udon, green tea, and tamarind-marinated tofu with vegetables, 100% pure fruit juice, and more fruit, fruit, fruit. All of her new foods were organic so she wouldn't get cancer. She didn't eat any meat because it causes cancer and heart disease. She avoided fat whenever possible because it causes heart disease. Nuts were a special treat, but she severely limited them because they have fat, you know. She felt very guilty when she ate an egg at her friend's apartment, but she loved her new lifestyle. It was "Earth friendly," and her energy was awesome.

In her sophomore year she began to develop the first negative symptom on her new vegan diet. She missed a menstrual period. She knew she couldn't be pregnant because she had broken up with her boyfriend two months previously. He was a jerk anyway. They had a big fight because he had eaten a bacon cheeseburger and an apple that was not organic. Good riddance. He will be dead soon anyway from heart disease and cancer.

Out on her daily afternoon, run Little Miss Vegan College Coed felt a little tired for no reason. She'd gotten plenty of sleep the night before. A few blocks from her apartment she literally collapsed on a bus stop bench. What was wrong? She thought she must be coming down with the flu or something worse, but a few days later she knew it wasn't the flu. After several weeks she went to a special vegan doctor (female, of course). Her new doctor was highly qualified, with a medical degree and special training in naturopathic, holistic, Chinese medicine. A few tests showed she was iron, vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin K and vitamin B12 deficient. Her total cholesterol was great, but her HDL was low and her triglycerides and LDL were high. Her doctor gave her a diet and nutrition booklet and instructed her to eat tofu spinach and lettuce salad, rice milk, low-fat soy milk, whole grain cereals, pasta, bagels, beans, barley grass, baked rice and tempeh casserole, French lentils with onions and carrots, Basmati rice, black-eyed peas with sunflower seeds, tofu fajitas, sugar plum tofu with udon, green tea, and tamarind-marinated tofu with vegetables, 100% pure fruit juice, and more fruit, fruit, fruit. She was also advised to take a multiple vitamin and mineral supplement with additional vitamin B-12 and iron tablets, but the iron only made her constipation worse.

Her doctor told her all would be OK. She simply had to increase her fiber intake to combat the constipation. That was a "girl thing" anyway. "We are all that way," her doctor said. Her energy did not return, so she stopped jogging. Then the bottom fell out of her health. She had diarrhea big time. Jumping from her seat in the middle of class she ran out, barely making it to the restroom. She was afraid to leave the building, fearing she could not make it back to her apartment without messing her pants.

Little Miss Vegan College Coed didn't know that her diet was composed of 80% carbohydrates or that it was killing her. She was deficient in cholesterol, fats, proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Now she had developed an autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease. Yikes! Her 98-pound skinny frame was in severe catabolism. Every joint was sore. She was depressed and tired. Her sex drive was zero, and she didn't care about meeting any of the men on campus. "Maybe I am a lesbian," she thought. Her inflammatory bowel disease had begun to control her relationships with people and interfere with her education. She continued with her thinking, "I feel dirty inside and an intimate relationship is a big turnoff."

Feeling she was dirty inside was the first and only thought about her health and nutrition that Little Miss Vegan College Coed had gotten right. Yes, she was dirty inside. Her high-carbohydrate diet had turned her colon into a fermentation system and a smelly sewage treatment process. The explosion of pathogenic (disease causing) yeast, fungi, bacteria, and parasites had given her "leaky gut syndrome" that leads to autoimmune diseases. Her vegan diet was destroying her health and happiness. She loves lettuce and raw spinach salads, not realizing they are almost impossible to clean. Insects and birds deposit their feces on the vegetables while they are still in the field. E-coli and other bacteria become trapped within the cell structure of the vegetable as it grows. She insists on organic food, not realizing that the restriction of insecticides during the growing season makes the food more contaminated. This is the reason that salad bars are the most common cause of food poisoning.

She found this website while surfing the Internet. Amused, she continued reading the recommendations that she should deliberately eat high-cholesterol foods, saturated fat, and meat. "No way," she thought. "I am  not going to eat the leg of a chicken including the greasy skin. A chicken has a face and a mother. They are also kept in little pens." "All her professors, doctors, and the nutritional authorities from the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, and Australia could not be wrong," she thought. "Why am I reading this stuff?" she asked herself, knowing she should have called her poor mother who has diarrhea as well. "That's it," she said as the light in her head went off. "I have inherited my health problems from my mother. It's in my genes. I know my diet is perfect," she said to herself. She quickly clicked the little "X" in the top right corner of the web page, blurted a few insulting curse words out loud, and left for her meeting with the vegan support group. Her tummy was rumbling and gurgling as she walked to the meeting building on campus. "Oh, oh, I better locate the bathroom before going into the meeting," she reasoned.

Mineral Toxicity:

Vegetarians often reach toxic levels of copper and a deficiency of zinc because their diet has excessive levels of grains. Copper and zinc are antagonistic. In other words, they oppose each other in the body. The high level of copper in grains depletes the already low level of zinc in the diet. Meat is the best source of zinc, but that doesn't help the vegetarian.

To make matters worse, vegetarians have difficulty eating meat again. They cannot quit the vegetarian diet easily. The vegetarian diet suppress the secretion of hydrochloric acid by the stomach, thereby making digestion of meat more difficult. This occurs when a person decides to reduce meat intake without becoming a full-fledged vegetarian. The resulting decrease in stomach acid makes the digestion of meat problematic. They develop a heavy, sluggish feeling in the intestinal tract that prompts them to reduce meat farther. They are literally forced into a vegetarian diet because it initially makes them feel better. This is a trap. It will ruin your health. The vegetarian has trouble breaking out of the declining health spiral because it takes a 180 degree, instantaneous turnaround. Most vegetarians have become brainwashed and refuse to eat "flesh" no matter how sickly they become. The vegetarian diet is the religious worship of animals. They refuse to eat their "god."

Vegetarians often have abnormal mineral tests using the hair analysis methods that show a long-term problem. They are often shocked to find toxic heavy metals in the analysis as well. Vegetarians who eat organic foods only are completely baffled by the test results. A closer review of the reasons for heavy metal contamination in the body shows why this occurs.

Vitamin Deficiencies:

Numerous studies confirm that vegans who do not supplement their diets with vitamin B-12 are at definite risk for deficiency of vitamin B12. The effects of vitamin B-12 deficiencies may appear as soon as 6 months after adopting a purely plant-based diet, or may not appear for 10 years or more following consumption of an exclusively vegan diet.

Vitamin A deficiency:

Vitamin A one of the fat soluble vitamins. The other two are vitamins D and K. People who restricts themselves to a low-fat vegetarian diet are putting themselves at risk for a deficiency in all of these vitamins.

Vitamin B-12 deficiencies:

Vitamin B12 deficiency has numerous negative health consequences. 

Artery Damage:

When vitamin B12 levels fall, homocysteine levels in the blood begin to rise. Homocysteine is a waste product of the metabolism of the amino acid, methionine. Elevated levels of homocysteine can damage the inner surfaces of arteries and in doing so promote deposition of cholesterol plaques - thus elevating the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Neurological Damage:

Peripheral nerves- numbness, tingling, and burning sensations in extremities and profound muscular fatigue.

Spinal cord injury - a serious form - subacute combined degeneration - may cause paralysis and be irreversible.

Other neurological hazards of vitamin B12 deficiency: dementia and depression in adults.

Risks to children:

If mother is B-12 deficient while pregnant: birth defects.

If mother is B-12 deficient while breastfeeding: nerve and brain damage, poor weight gain and "failure to thrive syndrome."

If child is B-12 deficient during infancy and adolescence: impaired intellectual function impairment.

Blood system damage:

Vitamin B12 deficiency leads to macrocytic anemia (abnormal shape and function of red blood cells), causing weakness, fatigue, irritability, and inability to concentrate.

Vitamin D deficiencies:

Vegans who have a limited exposure to sunshine, such as those living in northern climates, as well as those who have dark skin, and older adults, are at increased risk for vitamin D deficiency, leading to weakened bones. The vegetarian form of vitamin D (vitamin D2) is only 60 percent available as compared to the animal form (vitamin D3). The vegetarian diet can be as low as only 10% of the RDA. This increases the necessity for vegetarians to take vitamin D supplements or eat vitamin D fortified foods.

Vitamin K deficiency:

The low-fat vegetarian diet leads to a vitamin K deficiency.

Mineral deficiencies:

High-fiber diets prevent effective mineral absorption because (a) minerals are bound tightly to phytate molecules in the plant fibers and (b) because the food mass moves through the intestine so quickly that there is less time for mineral absorption. In addition, some minerals like iodine, magnesium, and zinc simply exist in far lower concentrations in plant-based foods than in animal-derived foods.

Minerals Commonly Inadequate in Vegan Diets

Iodine:

Vegans who do not include iodized salt or seaweed in their diet appear are at increased risk for a deficiency of iodine, needed for production of vital thyroid hormones.

Minerals Sometimes Inadequate in Vegan Diets

Iron:

Vegan iron intakes are often higher than that of non-vegetarians and lacto-ovo vegetarians, yet many vegans and vegetarians can show low levels of iron in the tissues (as ferritin), indicating low absorption of the iron they consume.

Beef and other red meats are some of the healthiest foods one could eat. Beef and other red meats are naturally loaded with essential vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and a multitude of other dietary supplements needed for optimal health. Red meat is rich in heme-bound iron, the natural form of essential iron in the body. People who avoid red meat and vegetarians who avoid all meat often have an iron deficiency. The body can also eliminate excess heme iron naturally, unlike elemental iron which can become toxic when it is obtained from supplements. Nutrition books typically underplay or ignore the broad spectrum of nutritional elements in red meat.

Zinc:

A significant percentage of vegans have zinc intakes below the RDA as well as a suboptimal zinc status. Absorption of zinc in vegan diets is reduced as compared to those consuming non-vegetarian diets. Vegan diets are higher in phytates, which can significantly compromise zinc absorption, and lower in animal protein, which would significantly enhance zinc absorption.

Sodium:

The vegetarian diet can be very high in added sodium, but deficiencies on a cellular level are commonly found by hair analysis. The deficiency of protein and fats in the diet simply causes the sodium to be flushed from the body in the urine.

Potassium:

The vegetarian diet can contain an adequate amount of potassium, but deficiencies on a cellular level are commonly found by hair analysis. The deficiency of protein and fats in the diet simply causes the potassium to be flushed from the body in the urine.

Calcium:

Vegetarians who refuse to drink milk or eat cheese for religious reasons are at risk for calcium deficiency.

Essential fat deficiencies:

Long-term vegans commonly have low tissue levels of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) of the omega-3 family - namely, EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid - 20 carbon atoms in length) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid - 22 carbon atoms in length).

Cholesterol, Energy, Healing, Sex, and Babies.

Deficiencies in these fatty molecules can lead to dry skin and low energy levels, as well as increased risk for: cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity, neurological/behavioral disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, depression, (possibly) attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia, immune/inflammatory disorders such as asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, inflammatory bowel diseases, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis. Also, deficiencies of EPA and DHA can lead to sub-optimal infant development, with compromised brain function and reduced visual acuity.

The primary reasons for the depressed omega-3 fatty acid status in vegans are twofold:

First, vegans consume insufficient amounts of alpha-linolenic acid (the essential omega-3 fatty acid found primarily in flaxseeds, hempseeds, canola oil, walnuts, green vegetables) relative to their intake of linoleic acid (the omega-6 fatty acid found in margarines, commercial mayonnaise and many salad dressings, crackers, chips, cookies, and snack foods, as well as cooking and other oils like safflower, grape seed, sunflower, corn oil [60-75% n-6] soy, cottonseed oil and sesame [45-50% n-6]).

Second, vegans seldom consume the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, which in non-vegetarian diets come mainly from fish.

More deaths for caesarean babies - September 7, 2006.

"Babies born by caesarean are nearly three times more likely to die in the first month than those born naturally, US research shows."

A vegetarian diet puts a woman at higher risk of having to deliver by Caesarean section because her hormones are not normal. She is exceedingly fortunate her unbalanced hormones allowed her to get pregnant in the first place and not suffer a miscarriage thereafter. In addition, the baby is likely to be underweight and sickly. The vegetarian mother has a greater risk of being unable to breastfeed the baby because of the disruption to her hormones caused by the deficiency of fat, cholesterol, and protein in the vegetarian diet. She is also more likely to suffer from postpartum depression. The hormones in the body are made from cholesterol. One vegetarian named Paula from Australia, went ballistic at the suggestion that her diet caused all of these symptoms in her and her baby. She didn't realize it was not my assertion but the result of a study announced on BBC News in the United Kingdom.

"Re: Your idiotic assertion that babies born by caesarean section are 3 times more likely to die in the first month after birth."

"I am the sad statistic of a mother who was pushed into a caesarean section by my OB/GYN due to my daughter's low birth weight which caused me to be unable to breastfeed my daughter and sent me into a severe state of post natal depression. I intend to have a VBAC with my next baby."

Protein deficiencies:

Although the majority of reports suggest adequate protein intakes in vegans, the Vegan Health Study has found that sub-optimal amino acid status (the "building blocks" of protein) is relatively common among vegans, and many vegans have low levels of branched-chain amino acids (valine, leucine, and isoleucine) due to insufficient protein intake.

Vegans who do not consume enough sulfur-containing amino acids, particularly cysteine and methionine, are at risk for reduced production of carnitine, a protein necessary for metabolizing fats for energy. Low levels of carnitine can lead to fatigue and reduced physical performance. A lack of these sulfur-containing amino acids also reduces the production of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant needed for detoxification of tissue- damaging free radicals, which can accelerate aging of tissues and increase cancer risk.

Caution:

Do not supplement the diet with methionine amino acid. The metabolism of methionine produces homocysteine which is a sulfur-containing amino acid. It exists at a critical biochemical juncture between methionine metabolism and the biosynthesis of the amino acids cysteine and taurine. Homocysteine is used to build and repair tissues, but an excess of homocysteine has been shown to be a major factor in hardening and obstruction of the arteries, causing full-blown heart disease.

Vegetarians will have you believe that eating fish, red meat, fowl, and cheese greatly increases the risk of becoming contaminated with toxic heavy metals. They cite examples like mercury in ocean fish or cows eating grass that has been contaminated by agriculture chemicals. They sometimes cite examples of the ingestion of pesticides and herbicides as the source of heavy metal in supermarket meats.

This is not the case. Actually, vegetarians are much more likely to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals for proven scientific reasons. Fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds commonly eaten by vegetarians can become easily contaminated by heavy metals occurring naturally in the soil or the air. Vegetarians are placed at higher risk because their diet contains fewer natural chelators than does the diet of meat eaters as we shall see below. Whole grains and other high-carbohydrate foods hold toxic metal ions for release within the body. The high level of carbohydrates in the diet results in a heavy load of glucose in the blood, and glucose has no chelating properties. The high level of glucose causes a rise in insulin, a powerful anabolic hormone. The insulin forces glucose into the cells, turns excess glucose into triglycerides, and deposits the triglycerides in the body as saturated fat. The anabolic nature of insulin opposes the catabolic nature of chelators. Eating meat detoxes heavy metals from the body naturally using amino acids, but eating fruit and whole grains causes the accumulation of heavy metals and prevents their discharge.

Conjugated Linoleic Acid - CLA Deficiency

CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) is a natural fatty acid found in dietary meat and dairy products. Cows produce CLA naturally, but humans cannot. CLA inhibits the conversion of dietary fat to body fat and promotes the growth of lean body muscle. CLA deficiency may be one of the contributing factors in the obesity epidemic. Therefore, it has become a major supplement used by bodybuilders to show off those 6-pack abs. CLA also inhibits the growth of cancer tumors. Vegetarians are naturally deficient in CLA. 

USDA Food Guide Pyramid

The vegetarian diet appears to be in perfect conformance to the professional dietary and medical advice given by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) when analyzed for percentage of fat, carbohydrates, and protein. The USDA has published the official diet in the form of an icon called the USDA Food Guide Pyramid. The USFDA has published the official USFDA Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for carbohydrate, protein, and fat. However, therein lies a big flaw. Neither the Food Guide Pyramid nor the RDA is based on scientific facts. If you follow the Food Guide Pyramid as your daily nutritional guide, you will encounter many related degenerative diseases like diabetes, heart disease, cancer, bowel disease, autoimmune diseases, and many more. The USDA Food Guide Pyramid and FDA Recommended Daily Allowance are solely responsible for the current high incidence of adult onset Type II diabetes which has tripled in the last 30 years. Type II diabetes is becoming common among teenagers, who were once thought to be excluded from this "age related" disease. People with diabetes have a significantly increased risk of cancer and heart disease. USDA - Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2005.

The vegetarian diet is dangerously deficient in essential omega-3 fatty acids. Some vegetarians realize this fact and supplement their diet with flax seed because of the alpha-linolenic fatty acid (ALA) content. Vegetarians in past centuries did not know about flax seed and suffered greatly from omega-3 essential fatty acid deficiency. The three most nutritionally important omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic fatty acid (DHA). No plant source contains EPA and DHA fatty acids directly. The body can normally change plant sources of ALA fatty acid into both EPA and DHA fatty acids. However, consuming EPA and DHA fatty acids in the form of cod liver oil or cold water fish is a much better option. Alpha-linolenic fatty acid is one of two fatty acids traditionally classified as "essential." The other fatty acid traditionally viewed as essential is an omega-6 fat called linoleic acid. These fatty acids have traditionally been classified as essential because the body is unable to manufacture them on its own and because they play a fundamental role in several physiological functions. As a result, we must be sure our diet contains sufficient amounts of both alpha-linolenic acid and linoleic acid.

A deficiency in omega-3 fatty acids contributes to many diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and inflammatory bowel disease. Omega-3 fatty acids are anti-inflammatory. The vegetarian diet contain an excessive amount of omega-6 fatty acid from vegetable, grain, and seed oils. A small amount of omega-6 fatty acid is essential, but the excess amount is very unhealthy. Omega-6 fatty acid is pro-inflammatory leading to an increased risk of heart disease, inflammatory bowel diseases, and autoimmune diseases. The vegetarian diet is therefore a pro-inflammatory diet.

Don't think that sunshine will remove the risk. A vegetarian handyman who worked outside sadly discovered this fact. The author knows only two vegetarians by name. Dave was a healthy-looking handyman. He was trim, and his weight was perfect for his size. In our discussion about health and diet five years ago he rejected my low-carbohydrate diet comments. Dave stated he was a vegetarian. He had just formed a vegetarian support group. However, his vegetarian diet has not treated him well. Dave was diagnosed with inoperable, terminal colon cancer in 2005. Dave is about 50 years of age. His death is eminent. Dave died in August, 2006.

The Vegetarian Diet Causes Cancer

Cathleen was so proud of herself. She worshipped animals and would never eat one. She worshipped the Earth and would never plant a lawn because it "wasted" water. She was so proud to announce that she was "saving" water even though the water she didn't use simply ran into the Missouri River, into the Mississippi River, and into the Atlantic Ocean. She had a fit when the broken sprinkler in a neighbors lawn sprayed a little water in the street while he was on vacation.

Cathleen ate only organic vegan foods with lots of organic soya milk and other soya bean products hoping to get some protein. Her diet failed her at 60 years of age when she developed breast cancer. Cathleen had both breasts removed and completed the full treatment with chemotherapy in accordance with her renown oncologist. She didn't bother to check the true statistical records for chemotherapy - it doesn't cure cancer. Cathleen hoped her organic vegan diet would help but that was wishful thinking since the same diet gave her cancer. Well, the cancer spread and she died. In her last act of Earth worship she insisted that her remains to be cremated. You see, she didn't want people to live on the Earth in the first place and certainly didn't want to take any space after her death. She worshipped the Earth and the animals untilled it killed her.

Exercise will not eliminate the risk of cancer but most likely increases the risk. Avoiding red meat and animal fats will not eliminate the risk of cancer. A vegetarian triathlon competitor sadly discovered this fact. Kathy participated in triathlon events even though she was 50 years of age. She developed a persistent cough that her doctor diagnosed as being caused by a post nasal drip. She was very concerned and visited another doctor when the cough became worse. Her chest x-ray revealed the dreaded news. Kathy had tumors in her lungs that proved to be cancerous. She had chemotherapy that seemed to place the cancer well into remission. The tumors shrank for a while but have come back. Kathy has had every new experimental cancer drug available. Nothing worked, and side effects were horrible. She had chemo a second time, although doctors rarely try it. It did not help her. Kathy didn't realize that excessive exercise literally wipes out the immune system. It is common knowledge that marathon runners easily get sick after a race because their immune systems are shot. A strong immune system is necessary to prevent cancer. She didn't realize that all immune system cells are made from amino acids as found in meat. She is a vegetarian. Kathy had an unprecedented third round of chemotherapy. Her death is eminent. Kathy died in September, 2006.

Vegetarianism: Another View by H. Leon Abrams, Jr.

The Myths of Vegetarianism.

Dietary supplements will not kill cancer cells. Wild claims made by salesmen of herbal products are simply not true. Herbs will not kill cancer cells. Chinese medicine will not kill cancer cells. Homeopathic products will not kill cancer cells. Acupuncture will not kill cancer cells. Magnetic therapy will not kill cancer cells. All of these treatments are a fraud.

The low-carbohydrate diet will prevent cancer. It will also slow and restrict cancer cell growth in existing cancers. It will also slow or kill fungal cells that grow in association with cancer cells. Normal body cells that are infested with a fungus are sometimes mistaken for cancer cells. Anti-fungal medicines should be taken in addition to the low-carbohydrate diet to kill the fungus.

High-fat Ketogenic Diet Shrinks Cancer Tumors.

The following study shows that a ketogenic diet with 80% fat eliminates cancer tumors, but a reintroduction of carbohydrates causes the tumors to grow again.

Metabolic management of glioblastoma multiforme using standard therapy together with a restricted ketogenic diet: Case Report - 22 April 2010 Nutrition & Metabolism 2010, 7:33doi:10.1186/1743-7075-7-33
http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/7/1/33

Background

"Management of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has been difficult using standard therapy (radiation with temozolomide chemotherapy). The ketogenic diet is used commonly to treat refractory epilepsy in children and, when administered in restricted amounts, can also target energy metabolism in brain tumors. We report the case of a 65-year-old woman who presented with progressive memory loss, chronic headaches, nausea, and a right hemisphere multi-centric tumor seen with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Following incomplete surgical resection, the patient was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme expressing hypermethylation of the MGMT gene promoter."

Methods

"Prior to initiation of the standard therapy, the patient conducted water-only therapeutic fasting and a restricted 4:1 (fat: carbohydrate + protein) ketogenic diet that delivered about 600 kcal/day. The patient also received the restricted ketogenic diet concomitantly during the standard treatment period. The diet was supplemented with vitamins and minerals. Steroid medication (dexamethasone) was removed during the course of the treatment. The patient was followed using MRI and positron emission tomography with fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG-PET)."

Results

"After two months treatment, the patient's body weight was reduced by about 20% and no discernable brain tumor tissue was detected using either FDG-PET or MRI imaging. Biomarker changes showed reduced levels of blood glucose and elevated levels of urinary ketones. MRI evidence of tumor recurrence was found 10 weeks after suspension of strict diet therapy."

Conclusion

"This is the first report of confirmed GBM treated with standard therapy together with a restricted ketogenic diet. As rapid regression of GBM is rare in older patients following incomplete surgical resection and standard therapy alone, the response observed in this case could result in part from the action of the calorie restricted ketogenic diet. Further studies are needed to evaluate the efficacy of restricted ketogenic diets, administered alone or together with standard treatment, as a therapy for GBM and possibly other malignant brain tumors."

The vegetarian diet and exercise will not eliminate the risk of heart disease but most likely are contributing to the risks. Many vegetarian marathon competitors have sadly discovered this fact. Running for hours day after day does not prevent heart disease. Excessive exercise most likely increases the chances of having a heart attack. Runners tend to eat a high-carbohydrate diet thinking they need extra glucose for energy. This is not the healthiest approach. The glucose causes insulin resistance and raises the blood insulin level, which by itself is a heart disease risk. The heart muscle burns fatty acids for energy, not glucose. The following two marathon runners are prime examples of those who exercised excessively but still developed heart disease at a relatively young age.

Myths About Exercise by Dr. Larry Wilson.

The often-heard statement that exercise will prevent heart disease is pure nonsense. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Professional and nonprofessional athletes die of heart disease at an alarming rate every year. Marathon runner James F. Fixx is a great example. James F. Fixx wrote two books on the health benefits of exercise and running, but he died in 1984 from a heart attack at a young age of 52 in his running shoes while on a daily run. Mr. Fixx discovered in his own study that his college alumni who were in athletics died earlier than the "couch potato" alumni. Professional athletes die young. The major contributing factor to Mr. Fixx's heart disease was his switch to a vegetarian diet several years earlier. The vegetarian diet is severely deficient in protein. It is very high in carbohydrates that produce the three heart-disease causing hormones, insulin, cortisol, and adrenaline. The Omega-6 fatty acids that are predominant in whole grains, nuts, seeds, vegetable oils, and beans produce the heart disease causing pro-inflammatory eicosanoids prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4). The vegetarian diet and running are a deadly combination.

PowerBar founder Brian Maxwell collapsed and died at 51 years of age on March 20, 2004, in San Anselmo, California. Brian Maxwell was a marathon runner, but he died of a heart attack at a very young age. His exercise, diet, and energy bars did not provide the awesome health as commonly expected, but more than likely caused his early death.

The vegetarian diet will not prevent osteoporosis and degenerative disc disease but is most likely a contribution factor. In summary, a high-carbohydrate diet as recommended by the USDA Food Guide Pyramid and vegetarians causes insulin resistance that leads to hyperinsulinemia. A scientific study of these adrenal hormones proves that carbohydrates cause bone loss, osteoporosis, and degenerative spine disease because the high-insulin response causes an increase in cortisol and adrenalin. An excessively high cortisol level causes the demineralization of bones. Eating whole grains, sugar, honey, fruit, fruit juice, fructose, lactose, and starches causes osteoporosis and degenerative spine disease. Milk and yogurt do not prevent osteoporosis. These high lactose (sugar) foods are actually a part of the problem. Hard cheeses are very good for the bones because they contain lots of good protein and fat without any lactose.

Absolute Scientific Proof Carbohydrates Are Pathogenic. 

The vegetarian diet will not prevent diabetes but is most likely a contributing fact. The vegetarian diet is always a high-carbohydrate diet that leads to an increased risk of diabetes. The low-carbohydrate diet will prevent diabetes. The vegetarian diet will not prevent heart disease. Eskimos that lived on a high-fat and high-protein diet consisting of 100% meat never developed diabetes or heart disease. Their carbohydrate intake was zero.

In summary, the claim made by vegetarians that their diet is healthy is a myth, and the unhealthy labels placed by vegetarians on red meat and animal fats are false. Anyone who embarks on a vegetarian lifestyle is placing his/her health in danger. The vegetarians cited above are not healthy. They are DEAD.

The Vegetarian Diet Can Cause Dumb and Diseased Children

Autism - Scientists are finally starting to speak out against the vegetarian diet, but voices are severely suppressed. Research money is simply withdrawn from any scientist who might study the deficiencies of the vegetarian diet. The fetus can be severely damaged in the womb when the mother eats a deficient vegetarian diet. Growing babies and infants can be seriously harmed by the vegetarian diet, leading to death in severe cases. Autism was virtually unknown in 1980 at less than 1 in 5000. Now autism has surged to 1 in every 166 babies due to the matching surge in the low-fat, vegetarian lifestyle and the avoidance of red meat in the diets of younger women. A woman should eat a diet abundantly high in red meat, fowl, fish, seafood, animal fats, cholesterol, fish oil, hard cheeses, and eggs for many months prior to becoming pregnant in order to deliver a smart, healthy baby. She should continue the diet throughout pregnancy, and she and the child should continue this diet as a lifestyle for their own good health.

Children 'harmed' by vegan diets US scientist claims.

Vegan Parents Charged With Manslaughter of Child Because of Vegan Diet.

Autism is likely caused by failure of the brain of a fetus to develop properly in the womb. This lack of development is caused by deficiencies of some essential nutrients in the mother's diet and an excess of harmful nutrients. Fetus brains are not made from romaine lettuce and low-cholesterol omega-6 soybean oil salad dressings. Fetus brains are not made from rice milk. Fetus brains are not made from organic fruit or fruit juices. Fetus brains are not made from carbohydrates, starches, or fiber. Carbohydrates, starches and fiber are not an essential nutrient in the human diet. They are very harmful. The healthy brain of the fetus is made from cholesterol, omega-3 fatty acids, saturated fat, amino acids from proteins, vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients. These good nutrients must be found in abundance in the mother's blood in order for the fetus to obtain his fair share. The mother's body will hoard these vital nutrients when in short supply and thereby deprive the fetus.

One of the omega-3 fatty acids, DHA, is a major constituent of cell membranes in the brain. A DHA deficiency weakens the cells and structure of the brain, leaving a baby with an underdeveloped brain. Growing infants and children have the same problem. A DHA deficiency in the diet of a pregnant woman will result in a deficiency in the brain development of the fetus. DHA fatty acid is an essential nutrient in the human diet because a deficiency results in many diseases throughout the body, even in adults.

Children most at risk for autism and/or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are those whose mothers think of themselves as being very health conscious, especially "health nuts." These mothers follow the health guidelines of professional nutritionists, obstetricians, pediatricians, and the Food Pyramid Guide religiously. They eat lots of fruit and vegetables as recommended. They don't have a clue about the scientific facts. Fruit and vegetables contain no protein and no amino acids needed to grow a baby. Fruit and vegetables contain no essential fatty acids, zero. Fruit and vegetables contain no saturated fats needed to grow a baby's brain and body.  Fruit and vegetables contain no cholesterol which the baby needs in abundance in order to grow a healthy brain. You were tricked and lied to. Fruit is loaded with unhealthy fructose sugar that is no different than high fructose corn syrup in a soft drink. Baby brains are not made from fructose. Fruit is nature's candy. Non-starchy vegetables like romaine lettuce and spinach have virtually no calories. Vegetables that lack calories are commonly eaten as a weight loss approach, not as a diet for growing a healthy baby. If you eat a lot of vegetables your baby will be a vegetable. Vegetarians are at high risk for having a baby with autism. Women are so severely brainwashed that they attack the scientific facts presented here.

Autism is soaring in all English-speaking countries because they all follow the same diet recommendation to avoid red meat, avoid saturated fat, and eat lots of fruit and vegetables. Societies where the people eat lots of meat and fish never have any children with autism.

Omega-6 fatty acids as found in soybean, safflower, corn, and other grain, nut, and seed oils are pro-inflammatory. It is essential only in very small quantities and ratios as found in meat, not vegetarian foods. All oils from grains, nuts, and seeds should be strictly avoided if you want a baby that doesn't have autism. Salad dressings are the most common source of unhealthy omega-6 fatty acids. This make green leafy vegetable salads and dressings a sickly combination that will harm your baby.

Autism in United Kingdom children is '10 times higher' than first thought - July 17, 2006.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Says 300,000 Children Have Autism - May 4, 2006.

All carbohydrates are turned to glucose (blood sugar) during digestion. This blood sugar zings the baby's metabolism. This is more pronounced when the mother has insulin resistance because the fetus has none. The insulin and glucose in the mother's blood throws the fetus into a hyper fit that damages and destroys brain cells. The result is a hyper-metabolism which is a contributing cause behind the epidemic rise in childhood autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Unfortunately, official health organizations don't have a clue about the cause or prevention of autism or ADHD. If you are the mother of an autistic or ADHD child, you should deal with the reality of the situation. Go look at yourself in the mirror and shout, "It is your fault." Then change your diet. Go out to dinner and eat a ribeye steak without bread, potatoes, or dessert so your next child won't be autistic or ADHD also.

Saturated fats are an absolute necessity for infant brain development and growth. Saturated fats in the infant's diet are necessary in order to have a child with a high IQ and good athletic skills. Healthy brain cells and other body cells are made with a large percentage of saturated fats. Mother's breast milk is very high in saturated fats, especially lauric saturated fatty acid. This is the same fat found in coconut oil.

Proof Saturated Fats Are Healthy.

Nutrition, Nutritional Deficiency Symptoms.

Autism is not caused by inorganic pesticide sprays and/or inorganic fertilizer on lettuce, spinach, fruit, and other foods. It is caused by the lettuce, spinach, and fruit themselves. Autism is not caused by mercury, PCB, dioxin, lead, or industrial chemicals in fish, the air, or the soil. It is caused by not having enough fresh meat, animal fats, and cholesterol in the diet. Autism is not genetic. Autism may occur more frequently in some families because the members have the same diet philosophy. Autism is not caused by mercury in dental fillings of the mother, cell phones, and/or magnetic electrical fields from power lines. Alcohol can damage a fetus, but autism occurs in children of non-alcoholic mothers. Your father didn't do it. (Some women like to blame their father for every ill in their lives.)

Autism Summary - Professional organizations will NEVER point the finger at the USDA Food Pyramid Guide as the primary cause of the autism epidemic. Therefore, the raging epidemic of autism is projected to become even worse. Mothers of autistic children could become part of the solution by encouraging others to eat a diet with lots of red meat, fowl, seafood, saturated fat, real butter, hard cheeses, eggs with cholesterol, and fish with omega-3 essential fatty acids, but they won't. So the children suffer.

Childhood Obesity - Other infants start on the road to insulin resistance when given the standard high-carbohydrate diet. This has been proven to be the root cause of childhood and adult obesity, diabetes, allergies and heart disease. The high-carbohydrate infant foods are setting the child up for a lifetime of health problems.

Frail Children - Some vegan kids look like hyper stick figures with no muscle mass because of the low-fat, low-protein diet, while others become fatties from eating the excess carbohydrate diet. The difference depends on the amount of refined vegetable products like sugar and fruit juices. The vegetarians of Southern India eat a low-calorie diet very high in carbohydrates and low in protein and fat. They have the shortest life span of any society on Earth, and their bodies have an extremely low muscle mass. They are weak and frail, and the children clearly exhibit a failure to thrive. Their heart disease rate is double that of the meat eaters in Northern India. HL Abrams. Vegetarianism: An anthropological/nutritional evaluation. Journal of Applied Nutrition, 1980, 32:2:53-87. The optimal diet for humans can be determined by anthropological research studies that show humans have primarily been meat-eaters.

Mr. Robert McCarrison, a nutritionist from Scotland, studied the nutrition and health of the peoples of India for many years during the early twentieth century. His laboratory later became known as the India National Institute of Nutrition. He reported in 1921, during a lecture at the University of Pittsburgh, that the vegetarians of Southern India suffered greatly from cancer. They ate a high-fiber, organic diet of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. They religiously abstained from meat and all animal products, yet the people of Southern India suffered greatly from many forms of cancer and intestinal disease. He reported that the people of Northern India near the Himalayas were much healthier without finding a single case of cancer. These Northern Indians has a diet of milk, butter, fresh red meat, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains; although the amount of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains was much more limited because the people live in the rugged mountains at a high elevation. This extensive study proved that eating fresh red meat and saturated animal fats does not cause cancer. In fact, these years of study proved that eating fresh red meat and saturated animal fats actually prevents cancer.

Vegan Couple Sentenced to Live in Prison on Felony Murder Charge After Baby Dies From Vegan Diet of Soy Milk and Apple Juice.

"ATLANTA (AP) May 9, 2007 - A vegan couple were sentenced Wednesday to life in prison for the death of their malnourished 6-week-old baby boy, who was fed a diet largely consisting of soy milk and apple juice. Superior Court Judge L.A. McConnell imposed the mandatory sentences on Jade Sanders, 27, and Lamont Thomas, 31. Their son, Crown Shakur, weighed just 3 1/2 pounds when he died of starvation on April 25, 2004. The couple were found guilty May 2 of malice murder, felony murder, involuntary manslaughter and cruelty to children. A jury deliberated about seven hours before returning the guilty verdicts."

Vegetarianism: Another View by H. Leon Abrams, Jr.

The Myths of Vegetarianism.

Dumb Children - The study referenced below proves that 4-year-old children are more intelligent when the mother takes cod liver oil during pregnancy and lactation. The child must also be fed cod liver oil after breastfeeding is stopped.

The three most nutritionally important omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic fatty acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic fatty acid (DHA). Alpha-linolenic fatty acid is one of two fatty acids traditionally classified as essential. The other fatty acid traditionally viewed as essential is an omega-6 fat called linoleic acid. These fatty acids have traditionally been classified "esssential" because the body is unable to manufacture them on its own and because they play a fundamental role in several physiological functions. As a result, we must be sure our diet contains sufficient amounts of both alpha-linolenic acid and linoleic acid. Flax seed as recommended by vegetarians is not a good substitute for cod liver oil because many people lack the ability to break the alpha-linolenic fatty acid down into the two components, EPA and DHA fatty acids.

The infant also needs essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Where is your infant getting these essential fats? Omega-3 fatty acids are NOT available to the infant from rice cereal, fruit juices, fruits, or vegetables. The infant can suffer from autism, low-immune system, low-growth rate, poor brain development, and many other health problems as a result of the switch to high-carbohydrate foods. This is one of the reasons autism, attention deficient hyperactivity disorder, child obesity, allergies, and many other childhood diseases are expanding at an epidemic rate. All commercial infant formula and food is seriously lacking in essential omega-3 fatty acids. They are not included because of expense, lower shelf life, and because the fats tend to stick to the side of the container. Even dog food is fortified with omega-3 fatty acids because dogs get sick if they are not added. Commercial infant food also contains an excessive amount of omega-6 fatty acids from safflower, sunflower, soybean, corn, and similar nut, seed, and grain oils that are unhealthy.

Many commercial infant formulas now contain a compound they claim is DHA docosahexaenoic omega-3 fatty acid. However, this is a form of DHA called crypthecodinium cohnii oil that is obtained from algae in a factory (yucky). It is not the same as natural DHA docosahexaenoic omega-3 fatty acid as found in unprocessed products like Carlson's Lemon Flavored Cod Liver Oil. Real DHA docosahexaenoic omega-3 fatty acid is not used in infant formula because it reduces the shelf storage life, has a liquid oil form, sticks to the container, and is rejected by religious vegetarians who will not buy anything from animal sources. Cod liver oil contains both both forms of omega-3 fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic fatty acid (DHA). Commercial baby formula does not contain eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) because they can't manufacture it in a dry powder form.

Cod Liver Oil: The Number One Superfood.

The arachidonic fatty acid (ARA) also added to commercial infant formula is sourced from the mortierella alpina fungus (yucky). The ingredient list on the containers of commercial infant formula conveniently hides the fact that factory forms of DHA and ARA are obtained from algae and fungus. Cod liver oil contains unprocessed healthy alpha-linolenic fatty acid that the body uses to obtain arachidonic fatty acid (ARA). Don't let the vegetarians control the food your child eats.

"Objectives. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6 n-3) and arachidonic acid (AA; 20:4 n-6) are important for development of the central nervous system in mammals. There is a growth spurt in the human brain during the last trimester of pregnancy and the first postnatal months, with a large increase in the cerebral content of AA and DHA. The fetus and the newborn infant depend on maternal supply of DHA and AA. Our hypothesis was that maternal intake of DHA during pregnancy and lactation is marginal and that high intake of this fatty acid would benefit the child. We examined the effect of supplementing pregnant and lactating women with very-long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs; cod liver oil) on mental development of the children, compared with maternal supplementation with long-chain n-6 PUFAs (corn oil)."

Vegan Males Become Wussies

The vegan diet wipes out the hormonal system in males. Their testosterone level plunges. The sperm count plunges, and they can't get it up -- erectile dysfunction (ED). They become impotent sissies. This is the reason vegan males become submissive to females and become homosexual. They can be seen carrying peace signs in demonstrations and are ready to surrender. The fact that the vegan diet makes humans less fertile proves humans did not evolve as vegetarians. This can be quickly shown by a simple visit to Dr. Andrew Weil's message board for male health problems.

I think my husband has erectile dysfunction (ED), Please help.
"Dear Group,
I need some serious advice. I think that my new husband of less than 2 months may have erectile dysfunction. He doesn't have a problem getting an erection. However, he does have a problem with keeping it. He rarely ejaculates...in fact he has only maintained his erection long enough to do it once. He is a young man, only 30 years old, and I don't know what to do. I tell him that it is okay that we don't ever complete intercourse, but he looks so sad when he can't keep his erection. I need to know what I can do as his wife to help him. He is a proud man and I don't want to hurt him. But I want to satisfy him and I know that I am failing to do so. Please help."

Cholesterol, Energy, Healing, Sex, and Babies.

The fact that the vegetarian diet turns men into homosexuals is very easy to prove. Simply go to a gay rally and shout this into the microphone, "If you are gay and a vegetarian, please raise your hand!" Repeat once again to make sure most of them heard it. You will quickly see all the hands go up.

Vegan Females Become Infertile

The vegan diet has a devastating effect on the hormones in the female as well. She soon looses her sex drive and fails to achieve an orgasm. She may drift into a lesbian relationship thinking her lack of arousal indicates she is gay, when in reality it was caused by the deficient vegan diet. The female vegan often becomes infertile or miscarries the baby. She will often skip menstrual periods or stop having them altogether. If she does get pregnant the chances of having a deformed baby of the male sex is very high because of the phytoestrogens in her soy diet. Many primitive cultures placed a newlywed couple on a special high-meat diet because it promotes fertilization and produces healthy offspring. In some countries mothers are charged with child abuse for feeding an infant the vegan diet.

Soybean plants are the most genetically modified organism (GMO) in the United States food supply. As of January, 2006, the percentage of soybeans that have been genetically modified is estimated to be 75% and spreading fast. Virtually all products on supermarket shelves that contain any soy or soy protein have all been contaminated. Just because a soy product is labeled "organic" does not mean it is GMO free. Vegetarians gorge themselves on soy products such as soy milk and soy burgers. Vegetarian foods such as breads, bagels, cereals, crackers, pastas, and energy drinks have all been fortified with soy protein made from GMO contaminated soybeans.

Vegan Mommies Have Boy Babies With Deformed Sex Organs

The vegetarian diet is disastrous for the developing male fetus. The vegetarian diet is typically very high in soy products such as:

• Soy milk as a substitute for cows' milk.

• Soy enriched cereal with soy milk, of course.

• Soy enriched bread.

• Soy enriched flour for baking.

• Soy bagels.

• Soy cookies.

• Soy tofu.

• Soy veggie burgers as a substitute for beef burgers.

• Soybeans roasted as a substitute for nuts.

• Soy infant formula for baby.

• Soybean oil salad dressings.

• Soy enriched ice cream.

• Soy enriched pudding.

• Soy energy bars.

• Soy enriched potatoes.

Cholesterol, Energy, Healing, Sex, and Babies.

Do not eat any food containing soy, soybeans, soy protein, tofu, or any other soy products. Soy causes birth defects in unborn babies. The plant estrogens in soy, called phytoestrogens, cause massive hormone disruptions in the fetus, babies, infants, and adults. People of all ages should avoid eating all products that contain soy or soy protein. The following are the sad regrets sent to us by a mother who ate soy tofu during her pregnancy.

"I agree with much of your sites philosophies. Soy is awful stuff. I was a vegan for 10 years. I blame soy protein for causing a 3rd degree hypospadias in my lovely son. 10 surgeries were required to repair it. I am an advocate of a high animal protein diet now. I purchase natural meat when I can for my family. We eat pork, lard, beef suet, beef, whole milk, etc. I feel my health is better than it ever was. I eat carbohydrates in very limited quantities. Mainly in the form of vegetable and fruit. We never eat any form of flour, wheat or refined carbohydrates, sugar, etc. It's poison. Thanks for helping to get the message out to our suffering obese country. One person at a time."

Note: Hypospadias is a condition where the outlet of the penis is not at the end. It is caused by a male fetus receiving excessive amounts of phytoestrogens. Males can become sterile as a result of the mother eating soy during pregnancy. Female fetuses are damaged as well causing hormone problems during puberty and later life. 

"I feel 100% certain it was the phytoestrogens in the tofu I ate DAILY during pregnancy that created Gabriel's hypospadias. I've done a lot of research on estrogen since, and I've found that it's pretty toxic stuff! Being a woman, I make enough of it as it is, and I added more to my taxed system. Wish I knew then what I know now. But I cannot blame myself. I had no idea what I was doing to myself and my son. I have been reading your site for some weeks now, honestly, every free moment I get I read the articles and the links you posted. Thanks a bunch!"

Soy causes the early maturation of females who are beginning to develop as early as eight years of age. Soy phytoestrogens increase female infertility and have caused a plunge in the male sperm count. Soy products are being added to all kinds of food to the extent that escaping from the consumption of soy is nearly impossible. Reading every nutritional label is necessary. Unprocessed foods should always be the first choice. Meat, fowl, fish, and seafood should be unprocessed and in the natural state. Bread, cookies, crackers, candy bars, and special drinks are prime candidates to avoid. Never feed a baby soy-based formula.

Mommy Goes Shopping for Baby Food

Are professional nutritionists, doctors of gynecology, and pediatric physicians warning women about the health hazards to themselves and their offspring from eating soy? No! No! No! Sssshhhhhhhhh.

Vegan Acid - Alkaline Theory is Nonsense

Vegetarians falsely claim that eating meat increases the body's acid level. This is nonsense. Vegetarians typically suffer from acid reflux because they do not eat meat. Simply breathing properly can change the blood pH drastically within minutes. Deep breathing discharges carbon dioxide from the blood which reduces the blood acid and increases the pH level. The body normally controls the acid - alkaline balance within a very narrow range. A diet devoid of meat is unhealthy because the stomach normally excretes a large amount of hydrochloric acid during a meal in preparation for the digestion of meat.

Roast pork is back on the menu for ex-vegetarian Rosemary Behan

"It was on an island in Cambodia when I finally cracked. The choice between barracuda barbecued in a lemon and pepper sauce and a bread roll was no contest.

Drawn by the mouth-watering smell of the flesh, and faced with the look of amazement on the faces of my hosts when I tried to explain that I had not eaten meat, fish or eggs for 30 years, my long-held belief that vegetarianism was a healthier way of life collapsed.

The physical result was astonishing. It was like a shot of adrenaline: I felt instantly energised and my mind seemed calmer and more focused.

The experience spurred me into trying further dishes all over south-east Asia: beef noodle soup and meaty spring rolls in Vietnam, spicy ginger chicken in Laos, honey-roast pork in China and sushi in Hong Kong. Apart from the pork (delicious), it wasn't the taste that drove me but my sense of wellbeing. My digestion improved, I felt satisfied and lost a stone in six months.

I am not alone. Madonna is probably the most famous celebrity to have quietly returned to eating meat, possibly feeling that such an extreme restriction to her diet might be jeopardising her phenomenal levels of energy and vitality."

Brits buying more fruit and vegetables - BBC News - January 18, 2007.

"Brits are buying record amounts of fruit and veg - the biggest increase for 20 years - a survey finds. 
Household expenditure rose by 12.9% for fruit and 6.3% for veg and fell for confectionary, soft drinks and alcohol."

"The government statistics suggest healthy eating messages are getting through to the public, ministers said."

Yikes, eating more fruit is BAD news, not good news. The British are overjoyed at the increase in fruit consumption. All English-speaking countries are pushing the same message to "eat more fruit and vegetables." Yes, the message is getting through. Diabetes will get worse based on this new trend. Fruit is simply high-fructose sugar that has been scientifically proven to cause insulin resistance, the major cause for Type 2 diabetes. This extra fruit consumption may be in addition to the present high-carbohydrate diet. The false message to "avoid red meat and saturated fats" has also been accepted by most individuals as well. Now heart disease, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, degenerative disc disease, and inflammatory bowel diseases are epidemic. Fruit is an unhealthy food and should be seriously limited in everyone's diet.

Good Calories, Bad Calories by Gary Taubes

Good Calories, Bad Calories is a must-read book. Gary Taubes is an award- winning scientist who has specialized in exposing misleading, incorrect, or fraudulent science. His seven- year research in every science connected with the impact of nutrition on health shows us that almost everything we believe about the nature of a healthy diet is wrong. For decades we have been taught that fat is bad for us, carbohydrates are better, and that the key to a healthy weight is eating less and exercising more. Yet with more and more people acting on the advice, we have seen unprecedented epidemics of obesity and diabetes.

Taubes argues persuasively that the problem lies in refined carbohydrates (white flour, sugar, easily digested starches) via their dramatic effect on insulin -- the hormone that regulates fat accumulation -- and that the key to good health is the kind of calories we take in, not the number. There are good and bad calories. Taubes traces how the common assumption that carbohydrates are fattening was abandoned in the 1960s when fat and cholesterol were blamed for heart disease and then -- wrongly -- were seen as the causes of a host of other maladies, including cancer. He shows us how these unproven hypotheses were emphatically embraced by authorities in nutrition, public health, and clinical medicine in spite of how well-conceived clinical trials have consistently refuted them. He also documents the dietary trials of carbohydrate-restriction which consistently show that the fewer carbohydrates we consume the leaner we will be.

With precise references to the most significant existing clinical studies, he convinces us that there is no compelling scientific evidence demonstrating that saturated fat and cholesterol cause heart disease; that salt causes high blood pressure; and that fiber is a necessary part of a healthy diet. Based on the evidence that does exist, he leads us to conclude that the only healthy way to lose weight and remain lean is to eat fewer carbohydrates or to change the type of carbohydrates we do eat and, for some of us, perhaps to eat virtually none at all.

Life Without Bread: How a Low-Carbohydrate Diet Can Save Your Life

Life Without Bread is an important addition to the growing body of literature on the benefits and importance of low-carb diet. Written by Christian Allan, Ph.D., and Wolfgang Lutz, M.D., the book is based on Dr. Lutz's experience using carbohydrate-restricted diets with thousands of patients for more than 40 years. It is based on extensive research in the medical and scientific literature and provides ample references. The book presents a unified theory of how high (and even moderate) levels of dietary carbohydrate cause or exacerbate various health problems and how carbohydrate restriction can help people to recover from those problems.

The book Life Without Bread by Christian Allan, Ph.D. and Wolfgang Lutz, M.D. has a chapter on gastrointestinal diseases. Don't be mislead by the title to believe the cure is the simple elimination of bread. Mr. Lutz's older book is out of print but has essentially the same information. It may even contain more detail than his new book above. Fortunately, Chapter VII: Gastro-Intestinal Tract of the older book can be read online.
