Guest guest Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 We do not eat pork because the pig does not have a large enough lymphatic system to take care of the toxins, nor does a pig have sweat glands, therefore the toxins are found in the muscle, which is the meat you eat. Pigs are usually scavengers, but being grass fed that may not be the problem. It is also Biblical not to eat pork. The toxins overwork your system to get rid of them. The weaknesses and inflammation can be seen in the iris of the eye when doing a Iridology analysis. Yes you can actually see the changes in the iris and follow your progress if the program is well written, and the program is followed. We use photos to prove this and follow progress. > <mailto:jeannekrieg@...> jeannekrieg@... wrote: > Sent: Friday, December 30, 2005 7:01 AM > Subject: pork opinion? > I buy grass fed pork and really enjoy it.

Pardon my ignorance, but do most animals have a lymphatic system? Do cows, chickens, lamb, etc...? And if the pig can't get rid of most toxins, wouldn't it just eventually get sick and die? Or is there some other type of system in it that can eliminate toxins? Why does Sally Fallon say it's ok to eat lard? Is it full of toxins too or not? Does anybody know the answers to any of these questions? Did I ask enough questions or what? While you're at it, what's the meaning of life?

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 It's OK with me if people chose not to eat pork, especially since so many hogs are fed badly and the typical confinement systems concentrate problems horribly, BUT let's all try to stop utterly false information when it comes to us. Swine have a completely developed lymphatic system, equal to any farm animal and better than some. They also have sweat and sebaceous glands in the skin. As many recall, pig skin is so similar to human skin that it can be used for grafting. It's true that swine sweat less than cattle and far less than horses, but it's all a vastly overrated issue when it comes to the matter of excreting toxins. The liver, kidneys and digestive tract are the primary routes of elimination for toxins. Swine raised for food are also slaughtered at around 6-8 months of age, thus there is less time to accrue toxins or pollutants, especially when compared to cattle, bison, sheep or goats. Trudeau's book makes for an exciting and fun read, but don't confuse what he says with accurate science! He makes some excellent points, and I think he's usually right about what to avoid and what to consume more of, it's just his reasoning and justifications that can be completely wacky. Take the pearls and ignore the rest. Pork that comes from an organic free-range farm, that is slaughtered humanely, processed naturally and cooked properly can be a health food. If you have religious taboos, or if pork just plain doesn't agree with you, you obviously shouldn't eat it, otherwise swine play an interesting and integral part of any sustainable farm. Pigs sure do get a bad rap! Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Thanks for setting us straight Will...whenever I think I should stop eating pork, I consider that it would mean no more bacon, ham, canadian bacon, ribs, pork chops or pork roast and then I go eat some more!

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 I don't believe that pork is toxic. The Soviet Georgians are often mentioned in NT as being in superior health. Their diet includes lots of fatty pork. If pork was toxic, would they be as healthy? In celtic spirituality, pork/wild boar was considered a magical food, one that puts you in closer contact with the spirit world (intoxicating). Perhaps this is why muslims do not eat pork (nor do they allow for alcohol)... And perhaps it has something to do with what Sally mentions in her book, that body chemistry is altered after consuming pork. This is just a bit of info though. We don't know for sure whether it's actually harmful. Or? Someone enlighten me, please. You could get wild boar in place of pork if you're worried about the effect of hybridizing, or pork from an old breed. I do believe though that any food has a different effect on different people. I love pork and I think pork loves me too, because I feel great after eating it. Beef on the other hand, makes me feel out of sorts and tastes too heavy/bitter for me. Pork is nice and sweet. Some studies according to NT links pork meat to cancer. Is there are high rate of cancer with the healthy population of Soviet Georgians? fina. > > I buy grass fed pork and really enjoy it.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Judging from the information you provided it almost sounds like pigs are an " incomplete " species, not able to rid themselves of toxins. You'd think if there was ever a problem with pigs, evolution would take care of it. It'd be interesting to know however, if these studies have been done with factory farmed pigs, or with healthy pigs. If done with inferior stock then the studies mean nothing. Or just that pigs are very sensitive creatures ans should be raised as naturally as possible. This is an interesting topic. > > Sent: Friday, December 30, 2005 7:01 AM > > Subject: pork opinion? > > I buy grass fed pork and really enjoy it.
