Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I'm sorry but this is going to be my last comment in dealing with your lack of research. All of us are constantly beating against it and you refuse to actually check facts before saying something stupid. http://www.aztec-history.com/aztec-farming.html Aztec's had an awesome farming system. No they didn't have tractors and monoculture but WOW floating islands built out of reeds to farm in the marshy areas with complex dams, aquaducts, and gates... Sounds awfully advanced to me. The Chinese, by the way, farm land that we in the US wouldn't even consider for grazing. I can't say that I agree with yin and yang as well but having healed myself after being on the road to death with Lupus by use of a lot of their pseudo science, I sure have to give them a bit of credit on the medical side. Then their current poor farmers look a lot healthier than a lot of people. And then cake.. oh, so you think they don't know how to make something sweet.. I think your definition of " poor " is twisted based on... once again Western Culture. In the US we are utterly spoiled and if something bad happens most people wouldn't have a clue how to take care of themselves and would starve. All those " rich " people who live in the modern houses don't have a clue how to even grow vegetables let alone prepare food from real things and not out of a box. But now I wait for your response that is based on your opinion and limited knowledge of cultures.. however, don't expect me to respond again unless you actually research it this time.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 So based on her super-secret research, we should avoid it, but it is too impolitic to bring up. Scientific research is not alchemy--if it exists, you can find it. She is basically reporting hearsay, complete with vague, pseudoscientific references to unpublished studies and blood chemistry. You can't get to truth by agglomerating random bits of information. Bill > > Apparently she doesn't want to go into further detail with the research because it will open up too much debate with the people that farm pigs in the WAPF community.� It's wise that she does recommend to avoid it if you are sick or healing.� Pigs are an essential part to the American diet and they do contain good health benefits like being easier to digest than other meats and the fat behind high in vitamin D in pastured pig.� People love bacon, pork chops, and sausage. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Did you actually read it? Or take it out of context. I read it. Sounds like they experience exactly what we are experiencing here; you're only reading about the end of their civilization at this point in the book. The only difference being we import food from other countries when we're short. They didn't have that option when their population exceeded their production. Mmmm... read read read.... at least you gave something this time. And on your next email, again, only looking at the end of their civilization. Yes, on China, however, they are very powerful. They just have to tell us no and our own economy will crash. Do not underestimate them.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Agreed. I have no idea what " serious changes " is supposed to mean. I thought the ambiguity of this passage was clear so didn't comment on it. ;-) This reminds me of " evidence " against dietary fat put forth by Pritikin in one of his books 20 years ago that higher levels of fat in the blood right after eating meat showed how dangerous it was to eat meat. I thought, isn't the bloodstream the way for transporting nutrients around the body? That's like saying that (temporary) increased waist circumference right after eating is proof that eating makes you fat. I am also grateful to Sally for all her scholarship and this may just be one detail in the massive work of NT that she didn't follow through on sufficiently. I'm satisfied that pork has been eaten safely by a number of healthy traditional societies, and if pork fat is safe and healthful, it stands to reason pork meat is, too. After all, we're told that fat is where " toxins " would be stored and concentrated, not in muscle tissue.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Ha! Yes, we know you can google. You turned this up by googling " Aztecs had poor agriculture " --it says it right there on your link. Talk about confirmation bias! Of course, your source doesn't support your idea--it just mentions poor harvests during the civilization's final century. CAPITALISM sells low quality goods and peripheral areas set up production that undercuts core areas. That is the nature of capitalism, not a moral flaw of the Chinese. They are selling it to us--we want it, we don't want expensive, quality goods. The market speaks. The sheer arrogance of blaming one modernizing country for the ills of the world is stunning. The Chinese, like us, are part of a global system. To understand a system, you don't take apart its parts, especially not with lazy cultural stereotypes.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Atlantis? Are you messing with us now? Is this a put on? No one is recommending eating food from China--the country is an environmental disaster area. But this is not because of some moral deficiency or backwardness on the part of the Chinese, but because the most advanced companies of the West have located production there.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 " CAPITALISM sells low quality goods and peripheral areas set up production that undercuts core areas. That is the nature of capitalism, . . " I just couldn't let this pass. " Capitalism sells low quality goods. . " ? Capitalism sets the stage for the production of both low quality and high quality goods and lets the buyer decide. Some cannot afford the higher quality goods so there is an alternative for them. There have been societies where low quality goods were/are the norm. Can anyone remember the former Soviet Union? There was little incentive to produce high quality goods. Why do you think people fled in droves with the demise of the Soviet Union and the felling of the Berlin Wall? You would rather have socialism? I just watched Farenheit 451 the other night and there was a sentence which really stood out. The premise of the story is that reading is bad as it makes some people sad, other dissatisfied, etc. So . .. . just do away with books so that everyone can be equal as anything else is just not fair. This is a 1966 movie but sort of eerily predicts our present day - everyone the same and kept that way by meaningless entertainment (lg flat screen TV's which they had in the movie) and drugs (to keep you from being unhappy). Sorry, I got carried away.

Obviously there is toxin coping mechanism in pigs, actually their's is probably better than any other animal's if they can handle all the toxins and diseases people condemn them for, and still run round without being extinct as a species.

Which is why it's not reasonable to take a book that includes the practice of two different religions and try to delve suggestions of how we should eat from it. It's almost 2010, I want to know hard scientific evidence of why pastured, natural pigs are inherently bad for humans, like, say, eating too much puffer fish gonads b/c they contains tetrodotoxins. Or if the animals are going to be condemned b/c they are stockyard, then make that distinction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Yeah, and those Atlantins didn't like the pig either.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 This does not go toward ~eating~ pork, but recently they've discovered that, of all the germs that kids can get exposed to that seem to help ensure they ~don't~ get asthma (and other autoimmune problems, I wonder?), is a germ that by far is most prevalent on pigs and their feces. And sure enough, children who grew up with pigs get asthma much, much, much less than those who don't. Tim Berkeley PS - chili peppers, tomatoes, chocolate, avocadoes -- if I'm not mistaken these are all domesticated products given to us by the Aztecs and their predecessors. I call that pretty advanced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 , whatever credibility you may have had before, you've demolished by now. Enough, already. A lot of nice people have taken your ludicrous post on pigs seriously enough to debunk your claims thoroughly, yet you just keep dishing up more myths, legends and prejudices that you try to disguise as science. If your personal religious belief forbids you from eating the meat of pigs, so be it, but most of us are interested in real science and real evidence for our decisions on what to eat. At least that's how I interpret the majority of posts from the majority of people on this list. I'm just gonna use my delete button without bothering to respond from now on.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Bill, I am also curious about how many people were tested and found to have these serious changes? And what kind of changes are they? For someone with health problems like mine perhaps the changes would help me heal? What ethnic group did these people comprise? Were they from cultures that didn't eat much pork? What about all the cultures that hunted wild boar? And as someone mentioned what kind of pork was studied? Organic doesn't mean much. If someone did it on truly pastured pork that would be a step in the right direction. Dawn From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Bill Sent: Tuesday, September 29, 2009 8:40 AM Subject: Re: Reason why pigs pigs aren't the healthiest meat to eat. I'm very grateful for Sally Fallon's work in bringing together information about the value of traditional diets. Her comments on pork do not make a lot of sense here. " Serious changes " in blood chemistry?--what does that even mean? Can you just look at blood under a microscope and see " serious changes " and know that they are bad? Are cancer researchers putting pork into their petri dishes to grow cancer cells? For real? I wish there was a lot less of this kind of bizarre, unsubstantiated rumor-mongering and posting of random internet conspiracy theories in the traditional foods community.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 pork is ok to eat according to Sally's later book Eat Fat Lose Fat. she said once that the reason she left pork recipes out of NT was because of her co-author Enig, who is Jewish. apparently, she convinced her that is was ok to include them in EFLF. > > > Apparently she doesn't want to go into further detail with the > > research because it will open up too much debate with the people > > that farm pigs in the WAPF community. > > > > > > That's a real logical leap.
