Vegetable oils like soy, corn,
cottonseed and canola are polyunsaturated fats. These fats are very unstable
(because they have several double bonds that are easily broken, making it easy
for free radicals to attack), especially when heated so they go rancid quickly.
Humans have only been consuming these oils for about 100 years whereas butter,
lard, beef tallow, coconut and olive oils have been consumed for thousands of
years. It is interesting to note that we
didn’t develop epidemic rates of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity
until we stared eating vegetable oils and decreasing our intake of animal fats.
Vegetable oils are generally high in
omega 6 fats and low in omega 3 fats so if we eat a lot of them (which we do in
America because everything is made with them) we get too much omega-6 and not
enough omega-3 causing our fatty acid profile to become unbalanced. Omega-6 and omega-3 fats compete with each
other for absorption which means that a diet high in omega-6 fats will deplete
the body of omega-3 fats. This imbalance
leads to inflammation, pain and disease.
The vegetable oils you buy at the store
are most likely already rancid when you purchase them and products containing
these oils are also already rancid. We
can’t tell they are rancid because deodorizers are used to disguise the rancid
smell. Heating these oils causes even more
damage to these delicate oils which translates to more free radical production
and inflammation in the body.
Another serious problem with vegetable
oils is that, unless they are from an organic source, they are genetically
modified. Allergies have increased
significantly since we have been eating genetically modified foods and these
foods can also contribute to infertility and other problems.
The best fats to use are butter,
coconut oil, olive oil, lard, beef tallow and palm oil, with small amounts of
flax and sesame oil. These fats promote
health in the body and have nourished and strengthened humans for thousands of
generations.

October is National Breast Cancer Month and people are
sporting cute pins, buttons and bracelets encouraging everyone to ‘support ta
tas’ and ‘feel your boobies.’ Women are
being reminded to get their yearly mammogram and eat lots of fruits and
vegetables. What no one is talking about
is iodine.
Iodine
is a very important mineral that is stored in the thyroid gland, ovaries and
breasts. Breast Cancer has several
etiologies but one of them is iodine deficiency coupled with bromide/flouride
toxicity. Bromide, fluoride and chlorine,
found in swimming pools, our water supply and the artificial sweetener Splenda,
all compete with iodine for absorption. Flouride
is also in the water supply and in foods prepared with fluoridated water,
toothpaste and medications such as the antidepressants Paxil and Prozac. Flonase and Flovent also contain fluoride. Bromide is found in such things as furniture,
carpet, cars, fire retardant clothing and mattresses, asthma medications and
flour and bread products.
Iodine
is important for thyroid and breast health and a connection between
hypothyroidism and breast cancer was first reported in 1896. Iodine deficiency can cause estrogen
production to increase and when you add increased estrogen production to the
increase in exposure to environmental estrogens in plastic, pesticides, meat
and dairy foods, you have a ripe environment for the development of breast
cancer. On top of that, we are bombarded
with bromide and fluoride on a daily basis which further deplete iodine.
One of
the best steps to take in preventing cancer is to get an iodine loading test
and discuss the results with a knowledgeable physician who can prescribe the
right dose of iodine for you. You want
to get plenty of unrefined sea salt in the diet as the chloride component of
salt helps to rid the body of bromide.
Vitamin C, magnesium and selenium need to be taken along with iodine, so
again, it’s best to consult a knowledgeable physician.

There is a
new threat to our health from synthetic food ingredients. And like
Aspartame, the regulatory approval process that is suppose to protect
us is failing again. You may have noticed lately a growing number of
products that claim in their ads and on their labels that they have
“Less Salts”, “Less Sugar”, “Less MSG”. This type of
claim should make you think, “What are they putting in to let them
take this stuff out”. It should be obvious that they are not just
going to remove some of the salt, sugar and MSG. These three
ingredients are the key to increasing sales. So they are the geese
that lay the golden egg of the processed food industry.
What they
are putting in is a new class of food ingredients that are novel
molecules, never consumed by humans before. And you may have already
eaten them because they don't have to be on the label. These
chemicals turn off bitter receptors on the tongue and enhance the
salty, sweet and umami (savory) receptors. Companies like Kraft,
Nestle, Coca Cola and Cambell's Soup are already putting these
chemicals in their products. These chemicals are so powerful that the
amount of salt and sugar can be cut nearly in half, yet the same
level of salty or sweet flavor is maintained.
While some
food companies will admit they are contracted with Senomyx, they will
not reveal which foods have these chemicals added. The foods most
likely to contain these chemicals are soups, vegetable and fruit
juices, ice cream and sauces. Senomyx CEO Kent Snyder has said, “We
are helping companies clean up their labels”.
The company
that developed these new chemicals is called Senomyx. They took data
from the human gnome project and used it to analyze human taste buds.
This has allowed them to develop multiple chemicals that work in very
low concentrations, often less than 1 ppm. By comparison, artificial
sweeteners have concentrations of 200-500 ppm. These new chemicals do
not have to be separately listed. Instead they are allowed under
“artificial flavors”.
The fact
that they are used at concentrations of less the 1 ppm means they
don't have to through the rigorous FDA approval process for novel
chemicals. Instead they automatically get Generally Recognized as
Safe (GRAS) status. It only took Senomyx 18 months to get GRAS status
on their MSG replacer and they did this with a single safety study on
rats for 3 months. A study like this is not generally considered
adequate to determine safety. A minimum of two years on multiple
species will produce more realistic results.
This is
just another reason to avoid processed foods, especially if they
contain salt, sugar or MSG and “artificial ingredients”.

This week on the Liberation Wellness Hour
Randy Roach - Muscle Smoke and Mirrors - Volume 1
Fitness and Wellness expert Randy Roades speaks about the amazing history of the bodybuilding
business and how it affects our health today.
The research for this extensive, two volume project... represents a
comprehensive effort to establish a complete context from which the
sport of bodybuilding arose. "Muscle, Smoke & Mirrors" is the rise
and fall of what was truly once an extraordinary discipline associated
with a term known as "Physical Culture". Experience what bodybuilding
was originally and learn just exactly what "Physical Culture" really
is.See what growing philanthropic power flexed its financial and
political muscles to foster its corporate agenda, compromising human
health internationally.Read how the merger of technology and politics
culminated in the industrialization, commercialization, federalization,
internationalization and finally the STERILIZATION of a nation's food
supply, rendering it suspect not only to the general public; but also
to the most elite of athletes. Whether you are a novice, an elite
bodybuilder or simply sports-nutrition minded, learn how the emerging
forces of the Iron Game evolved. Ultimately, the factions of this
industry would grow powerful and manipulative while fighting for
control over the Game.It took the running of several parallel histories
on bodybuilding, nutrition, supplements and the role of drugs to offer
a complete, first-time unraveling of the web of confusion and politics
that still permeates the sport into the 21st century!Volume I of
"Muscle, Smoke & Mirrors" is truly the untold stories surrounding
"Bodybuilding's Amazing Nutritional Origins."

Everyday it seems we hear something about the swine
flu. People are visiting emergency rooms
for every ache and sneeze due to fear of getting the swine flu. Is our fear grounded in fact? So far, the swine flu has not been any worse
than any other flu. Most people get the
usual flu symptoms for a few days and then they are fine. Some with compromised immune systems have
died, but that happens with every flu that comes around.
The swine flu, or any other flu, is not fun to go through,
but we don’t need to be afraid. Just try
the following preventative tips:
1.
Eat real food the way God made it.
2.
Eat saturated fat found in butter and coconut
oil daily.
3.
Make homemade chicken broth and drink some
daily.
4.
Take cod liver oil and vitamin C daily.
5.
Avoid refined sugar.
6.
Get plenty of rest.
7.
Wash your hands in soap and water.
Taking the above precautions may help prevent the flu or
make the symptoms less severe and they are much more reliable and much safer
than a vaccine or drug.

Butter on the Move in Virginia!
Hi Kevin -
Thank you so much for speaking to our
Roanoke Valley Group last
Tuesday. Everyone that attended was very happy to hear your talk and
you received rave reviews. We look forward to having you back soon.
Personally, I had been on a "diet" from my Holistic Doctor that
unfortunately is not a WAPFer. She had me on protein meal replacements,
powdered greens and fiber powders. I was feeling better, but still
fatigued and hormonal imbalances that created horrible mood swings and
depression. She also had me drinking lots of water and eating before
bed. I also have about 10 pounds of "stress" weight that I am looking
forward to losing.
After your visit I stopped the powders, drink a lot less water and
do not eat three hours before bed. I also cut out popcorn. I feel
great!!! I have energy and no mood swings in just three days! Yea!!!
Thank you for the great work you are doing in spreading the truth about nutrition and the
WAPF.
Sincerely,
Judi Harrington
Hardy, Virginia

and they medicine thy food."

There is No Money in Fasting!
By Janet Marsh Demeter, Staff Writer
Fasting is an ancient techanique for healing and detoxification of
the body from a variety of ills, and for maintenance of optimum health.
Studies show that we are designed to fast and fasting is in part an
evolutionary development of times of food scarcity.
As with other areas of the Natural Healing arena, general consciousness
of its benefits are not well-known; in fact, people tend to be fearful
of fasting. This fear of fasting is really the fear of feeling
"hunger", or what people think is hunger. More often than not, the
sensations of withdrawal from irritating substances are confused with
hunger and do not come from the absence of real, natural foods. What
constitutes "real food" is well researched here with our Liberation
Fitness staff and at westonaprice.org, but basically, sudden
restriction from anything that is not natural and/or is super-refined
with preservatives and other toxins, can create the lightheadedness,
headache, cravings, stomach pains, and other symptoms that people
mistake for real hunger. Actually, the willingness to "sit through"
these feelings of withdrawal can eventually free a person, through
fasting, from a bad eating habit, among other things.
Considering again the benefits and very basic physiology of the fast,
the first 3 days are the most dramatic whether it's a 4, 7, 10, 30 day
water fast, because during the first 72 hours the body switches feul
sources. During the first day, the body generally consumes all of its
stores of glycogen in the liver(normal source of glucose), so then it
must find another source. It begins to break-up fatty acids(ketosis) as
feul, and also (catabolizes)breaks down amino-acids from the muscles to
make glucose, about 2-3 oz of muscle on the second day. By the third
day, the ketosis or breaking down of fatty acids becomes very efficient
so that the body can begin conserving protein, thereafter catabolizing
only 1/2-1oz of muscle per day. The conservation of protein was
important for the protection of the organs and muscles when no food was
available; over 30 days a person will go through 1-2 lbs. of muscle
tissue.
Much like sleep, the body during a fast uses its energy to break down
and expel toxins, and to heal itself. As the fast continues, the body
will use-up everything it can that is not necessary for its
functioning, such as microbes, fibroid tumors, wastes, inflammation,
and stored fat of course. Generally, the body switches its fuel source
in the first 3 days, when the most dramatic effects, if any, are felt.
So fear not; the body is actually designed to do this--and can manage
very well for quite some time. Some of the diseases and conditions that
clinical studies have shown fasting helps either partially, or
permanently, are: hypertension, chronic cardiovascular disease, type II
diabetes, obesity, epilepsy, acute pancreatitis, osteo- and rhumatoid
arthritis, auto-immune diseases including lupus, severe toxic
contamination(7-10day fast), poor immune function, psycho-somatic
diseases, gout, bronchial athsma, allergies, MS, insomnia, and more.
There have been enough animal studies that suggest life-span
enhancement through fasting, and also individual case studies, not to
mention common sense. Cancer research is, of course, controversial with
fasting(as with most natural approaches), however there is data to
suggest it may help prevent cancer. Most people can safely fast, but
there are special cases when one should not fast. Always consult your
health professional for when considering fasting as to your goals, the
length and type of the fast, etc... Starving people obviously should
not, pregnant diabetic women, nursing mothers, those with anemia, those
with porphyria should not fast. There is also a rare genetic fatty-acid
deficiency which prevents the body's switching to ketosis.
Knowledge of fasting should be available to everyone as a natural and
safe (with some exceptions) healing and health maintenance technique. The
more you know about health and wellness, what good things with which to
fuel your body, the more sense it makes to take advantage of fasting to
cleanse and heal. Often the fear of it is no more than a bad habit not
wanting to lose his position of authority in the mind. Fast and be
healthy; fast and be free, too!
Janet has had over 20 years experience
as a distance runner; an exercise enthusiast, she has studied Martial Arts, Pilates, and dance.
She has also studied nutrition and nutritional healing, most intensely following a biking incident
with a car breaking both legs to ensure a complete and rapid recovery. Also a 17 year survivor
of a very serious eating disorder, she has spent much time re-establishing a healthy relationship
with food and reconnecting with natural instinct. She is a Wellesley College graduate and dedicated
to the demystifying nutrition and the healing powers of Nature, which are available to all.
Currently she lives in Kagel Canyon, CA with her husband Barry and daughter Sophie-Marie.
