Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010  the supplements will only get worse because all businesses want to grow and supplement companies as well as pharmaceudical companies will grow through any means of manipulative marketing.  So I am opting out as much as possible and putting my money where my mouth is and that is the soil of this Earth-Kiss the Dirt expression. All food arises out of the Earth which includes the water and air. For those of you who choose to do so, take your supplements knowing at best you will become a supplement junkie or addict and will not be able to function or live without them. You will defend them the same way and alcoholic defends his alcohol or the gluten addict, pasturized dairy addict or sugar addict.  Supplement theory creates a co-dependency relationship at best so you become both physiologically addicted or emotionally invested in them. If you are a health practitioner you are at risk of becoming financially dependent on the sale of supplements. It has taken me years to break such an addiction and a financial hit. I'm am diverting my energy to defend Mother Nature as much as I can.  I hold my idealisms in my minds eye while live practical along the way-I refer to this as Living Primal: Loving Spirit. getting back to animal instincts and spiritual intuition. Pottenger's Cat Study really says it all here because the cats that thrived didn't receive any supplements just fresh raw food.   All the tribes and villages that Price studies didn't have any supplements. Supplements are attempting to patch modern civilized life that is actually more uncivilized than ever before. I think Bernard Jensen lived a powerful vision unfortunately he valued and taught a more vegetarian life style thus he still had the need to suggest some supplements. Here is an analogy to follow: 1% of the people own and manage 99% of the wealth. Why? Because they know and do things that are way outside of the normal way of doing business.  Less than 1% of all athletic people make it to being an Olympic Gold Medalist. Why? Becaues they know and do things in a certain way that are way outside the normal way of doing fitness and performance. For those who create there health and healing miracles they know and do things in a certain way that is way outside what is mainstream or normal. That said optimal health will require doing things that 99% of others are not doing! Take your supplements and your cooked and processed foods and you will never make into that 1% of optimal health and healing. You will get the silver or the bronze but not the Gold.    Go for the Gold !

Hi Dan: I could not agree more, and the proof remains evident with the many miraculous cures from cancer and other devastating disorders. Also, your suggestion that it takes a concerted deal of mental/emotional and spiritual healing to regain our health is right on. I'm just now reading an incredible book that deals with the emotional aspects of Asthma, and details wonderful techniques, and testimonies of people now cured by using a certain type of imagery. Anyone with Asthma should read this book more than once. " Asthma Free in 21 days, by Shaefer, Ph.D I truly believe that supplementation to the degree that it is now advocated, and the draw of practitioners, and other non certified suppliers to make mega bucks selling them, is a serious problems, and does not fall within the laws of nature, which if abused will only bring on bad consequences/karma in all area's of our life. One of my favorite quotes is by Bernard Jensen who stated these now very famous words below. " No therapy or drug known to modern medical science can rebuild tissue that has been damaged by disease or trauma. Food alone can accomplish this feat. It is for this reason that nutrition is an indispensable weapon against disease " . Dr. Bernard Jensen (1908-2001) Best - From: Hegerich <heg1965@...> Subject: Re: Re: Cold Processed Whey Powder- If you believe you need supplements you will find evidence for that belief. I believe it is best for optimal human health to use food as medicine and it can be done. Therefore, there is evidence that this is possible. If someone is low in glutithione their whole biochemistry is off. Raising glutithione alone will not replace magnesium deficiency nor will it pull mercury from deep tissue storage in the brain, nerves and glands. If you don't know, I had terminal cancer 6X even cancer of my bones. I followed the fundtional medical approach including Nutri Spec testing, Metabolic Typing, etc...and they all perscribed plenty of supplements.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Agreed and I do believe in medicinal teas and herbal tincture supplmentation for short periods and for certain individuals. There are many more elements to have a well balanced whole life. Food is but one small component. I wrote the 7 major elements to optimal health and healing at www.dothecure.blogspot.com Enjoy, Dan Do The CURE ________________________________ From: Alobar <Alobar@...> Coconut Oil Sent: Wed, December 1, 2010 5:18:45 PM Subject: Re: Re: Cold Processed Whey Powder-Cannot Find?  Likewise, if you do not believe in supplementation, you will find evidence for that also.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Thanks Duncan. You probably influenced others to purchase more reduced glutithione or un-denatured whey.  My statement was to make a point that each health practitioner will have his/her favorite supplement or miracle something.  I'm certain next year will unveil more super supplements in the nutritional game and the raw vegan community will discover next super duper super food from the moon as the cure for everything.  ________________________________ From: Duncan Crow <duncancrow@...> Coconut Oil Sent: Wed, December 1, 2010 5:30:12 PM Subject: Re: Cold Processed Whey Powder-Cannot Find?  With regard to this statement from Dan: > Glutithione is now being replaced with Trans Resveratol as the > leading 'longevity' nutrient.

Glutathione isn't now being replaced by any antioxidants, even resveratrol, because if glutathione is low there is always disease regardless of the availability of exogenous (from outside the cell) antioxidants. In the research, just one supplement, not 7, was used to increase glutathione in animals and humans. Dr. Hyman must have not read the updates on cold-extracted whey protein.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Yes but it is reasonable to consider that you have an addiction or need for validation outside of your own bodies innate wisdom. Everything can become an addiction-even knowledge. Have you put yourself on a knowledge fast? I have and that was wounderful. I spent almost 6 months in a tent to live with nature. Wow it took 3 months of struggle to let the world go. Then I fell in love with ants, scorpions, rattle snakes, hot springs and never tired of the sun rise or sun set. It made me realize the simplest healing is to dump the modern world completely including the books.  I had personal experience with an addiction to supplements and the search for science-I frankly became bored. Organic life became a greater interest to my whole self. Additionally, working with indiviudals and having them come in with all of their bags of supplements from their cabinets lead me to believe that many sick people have become supplement junkies. Most of them I tell them to throw them all out in order to work with me. They pick up their bags of supplements and walk out.  They usually eat tons of supplement meal replacement bars etc...Now you are an intelligent person playing doctor and experimenting. You obvious love the game and play with gusto. You apply your reasoning and go for it. That is terrific. Most people are not into health but merely interested in getting out of a pickle. I choose to just focus on food to nourish my body but also nourishment for my mind and soul. I feel more nourished when I play in my band for hundred of people than any food could offer. I feel super nourished facilitating healing through conscious breathwork. It is unconditional love and my heart is so full of nourishment. Food is such a small component of the bigger picture yet sucks most peoples energy. the dialogue is great by the way.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 I agree with Bruce. We are 70% fluids and require foods that have their natural liquids. Dehydrating anything looses something. Dehydrate a human at 118 degrees to preserve the enzymes then add water back in. Will the body come alive again? ________________________________ From: calblonde1 <calblonde1@...> Coconut Oil Sent: Wed, December 1, 2010 6:34:38 PM Subject: Re: Cold Processed Whey Powder-Cannot Find?  Yes, the monumental work of Dr. Francis F. Pottenger, Jr, of the Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation, showed the value of a raw-protein diet. A pioneer in the field of nutrition and advocate of raw milk, he showed the unhealthy properties of cooked milk. Some of cooked protein Dr. Pottenger used was dried milk powder. I asked Dr. Bruce Fife about a powdered protein product and he replied that he would never consume any product that contains powdered whole milk, regardless of where it comes from---cow, goat, or whatever. Powdered whole milk contains oxidized unsaturated fats. Oxidized fats are known to damaged artery walls and promote plaque buildup.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 I use ~65 grams of whey powder per day. So cost is a concern or mine. Being diabetic, I try to minimize carbs as well. Unflavored whey powder is not real pleasant for me, but half plain and half vanilla makes it taste good while keeping carbs low. To me, whey tastes much better when made with less water than recommended, adding inulin powder for fiber, and adding heavy cream also. To save $$ I order NOW brand whey protein isolate in 10 pound bags from Vitaglo.
