Food is for the Body and the Body is not for Food
1 Cornthians 6:13
In a world that is consumed with the love of food, you might assume from frequent news reports about obesity in America that we're the most gluttonous country in the world. But on the contrary regarding this country's food industry… Americans still spend far less of our income on food than their peers in many other developed countries.
In 1949, Americans spent 22% of their income on food, whereas in 2009 they spent a meager 10%. While it seems that Americans are saving money on inexpensive food on the other hand these foods are often the product of factory farming and industrial agriculture. With jumbo size products being sold for less, Americans may be gaining more for their dollar but they're also gaining more weight, losing their health, spending more on their healthcare and supporting environmentally unsustainable practices.
Processed foods make up 70 percent of the U.S. diet today. As you cruise down the aisle of most any grocery stores, what you're seeing despite of what you might think is not precisely food. Most of those items are what we've come to know as processed food. Cookies, crackers, cereal, even yogurt, crammed with various chemicals that'll let it sit on the shelf for a good long time, all the while containing enough sugar and salt to make it taste good. Virtually every food that comes in a box, bag, jar, or can is processed. You can evaluate how processed a food is by reading the label's ingredients list to see the names, number, and type of ingredients. A large number of ingredients, with names that you don't recognize, indicate a highly processed food.
The word “processed” often causes some confusion, so let me clarify what I mean. Most foods we eat are processed in some way. Apples are cut from trees, ground beef has been ground in a machine and butter is cream that has been separated from the milk and churned.
But there is a difference between mechanical processing and chemical processing. If it’s a single ingredient food with no added chemicals, then it doesn’t matter if it’s been ground or put into a jar... It’s still real food! However, foods that have been chemically processed and made solely from refined ingredients and artificial substances are what are generally known as processed food.
A daily diet of processed foods promotes aging and kidney damage as they contain phosphates and genetically engineered ingredients. The trans-fats and sugar present in processed foods are medically proven to cause inflammation. When you have arthritis, your body is in an inflammatory state. What you eat may not only increase inflammation, it can also set you up for other chronic conditions such as an unhealthy condition that leads to asthma, obesity, heart disease, pancreatitis and diabetes.
A chemical which causes cancer has been found in a huge range of processed foods including bread, potato chips and even baby food. The substance, acrylamide, has been linked to several types of cancer including bowel, bladder and kidney, and is known to cause infertility and loss of muscle control. Scientists have identified high levels in thousands of cooked and processed products.
We are lead to believe there is no good food or bad food it’s all a matter of balance. This sounds good in theory, except for one thing… new discoveries in science prove that industrial processed sugar, fat, and salt laden foods that are made in food processing plants, rather than grown on a plant or not only dangerous but biologically addictive.
The National Cancer Institute and other agencies use the tracking information from SEER to try to determine whether childhood cancer is increasing. In 1996, the National Cancer Institute reported that the frequency (incidence rate) for cancer of all types in children increased 10% between 1973 and 1991. This means that 10% more new cases of cancers per million children were found in 1991 than in 1973. During this period, brain cancer and soft tissue sarcoma each increased more than 25%.
The World Cancer Research Fund has completed a detailed review of more than 7,000 clinical studies covering links between diet and cancer. Processed meats are too dangerous for human consumption. Consumers should stop buying and eating all processed meat products for the rest of their lives.
These processed meats include bacon, sausage, hot dogs, sandwich meat, packaged ham, pepperoni, salami and virtually all red meat used in frozen prepared meals. They are usually manufactured with a carcinogenic ingredient known as sodium nitrite. This is used as a color fixer by meat companies to turn packaged meats a bright red color so they look fresh. Unfortunately, sodium nitrite also results in the formation of cancer-causing nitrosamines in the human body. And this leads to a sharp increase in cancer risk for those who eat them.
A 2005 University of Hawaii study found that processed meats increase the risk of pancreatic cancer by 67 percent. Another study revealed that every 50 grams of processed meat consumed daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 21 percent. These are alarming numbers. Note that these cancer risks do not come from eating fresh, non-processed meats. They only appear in people who regularly consume processed meat products containing sodium nitrite such as Beef jerky Bacon, Sausage, Hot dogs, Frozen pizza with meat, Canned soups with meat, Frozen meals with meat, Ravioli and meat pasta foods, Kid’s meals containing red meat, and Sandwich meat used at popular restaurants.
If sodium nitrite is so dangerous to humans, why do the FDA and USDA continue to allow this cancer-causing chemical to be used? Furthermore, why is Monsanto one of the largest pharmaceutical and agricultural companies that producers a wide range of genetically modified foods and seeds, drugs and pesticides and herbicides, protected by President Barack Obama who signed a spending bill, HR 933, into law on Tuesday March 22, 2013 that includes language that "Monsanto Protection Act". Which effectively bars federal courts from being able to halt the sale or planting of controversial genetically modified (aka GMO) or genetically engineered (GE) seeds, no matter what health issues may arise concerning GMOs in the future. The Monsanto Protection Act is a giveaway to corporations that was passed under the cover of darkness.
Monsanto has been around since 1901 and makes billions of dollars a year in pure profit from selling toxic chemicals and pesticides. In 1977, Monsanto sold its chemical business and got heavily engaged in biotechnology and genetically modifying corn and soybeans. Today Monsanto is the world largest seed company dominating the global seed market. In 2001, Monsanto owned 91% of GMO crops worldwide.
Take aspartame for example. Once upon a time, it was listed as a biochemical warfare agent by the Pentagon. But now it is in thousands of food products in our grocery stores. It is estimated that 200 million people around the world consume aspartame. It is found in over 6000 products such as frozen desserts, gelatins, puddings, fillings, confections, chewing gum, carbonated or powdered soft drinks, tabletop sweeteners or yogurt. Some sugar-free pharmaceuticals like cough drops will also add aspartame. As an example, Coke Zero has aspartame. Aspartame is a chemical hyper sensitization agent because it is a neurotoxic drug (chemical poison). It not only interacts with all drugs but all vaccines and other toxins and unsafe sweeteners like Splenda, a chloro-carbon poison. Aspartame breaks down within 20 minutes at room temperature into several primary toxic and dangerous ingredients:
1. DKP diketopiperazine, When ingested, converts to a near duplicate of a powerful brain tumor causing agent.
2. Formic Acid (ant venom)
3. Formaldehyde (embalming fluid)
4. Methanol causes blindness... extremely dangerous substance
Common Examples: Diet soft drinks, sugar free gums, sugar free Kool Aid, Crystal Light, childrens' medications, and thousands of other products claiming to be 'low calorie', 'diet', or 'sugar free'. Even natural flavorings on the ingredient list of a product can be a cover for aspartame and/or MSG… so our children don't have a chance!
An epidemiological study by Sharon Fowler at the University of Texas based on 8 years data links diet drinks with obesity. Aspartame also can precipitate diabetes, simulates and aggravates diabetic retinopathy and neuropathy, destroys the optic nerve and interacts with insulin.
During the years even with the advancement of medicine have you noticed that there has been an absolute explosion in the number of people developing chronic illnesses, heart disease, diabetes and cancer? The National Institutes of Health even states that four of the six leading causes of death in the US are linked to unhealthy diets.
Many medical professionals and scientists are awakening to the fact that something diabolical is going on within our society and are beginning to ask serious questions regarding the development of all these chronic illnesses. Our food supply appears to be intentionally designed to end human life rather than nourish it.
A clearer understanding to why so many people find it so difficult or even impossible to lose weight can clearly be seen by the types of foods that they eat. Many processed foods such as junk foods we consume from fast food chains are designed to cause people to crave more. The truth is… sugar and highly processed junk foods can be addictive, just like drugs.
When we eat these processed foods, a brain hormone called dopamine is released in an area of the brain called the reward system which is composed of both central nervous system structures and endogenous neurotransmitters communicating between these structures, has been termed the “reward pathway” We interpret this dopamine signal as “pleasure” and the programming in our brain changes to make us want to perform that behavior again. This is actually a good thing without dopamine, life would be miserable... but too much of anything can be a bad thing! This can lead to these brain pathways being hijacked by the intense dopamine signal... this is why it's so hard to only eat one potato chip! A great example of this is the drug cocaine… when people take it, it floods the brain with dopamine and the brain changes its programming to want to take cocaine again, and again, and again.
Allow me to use one of my form favorite foods to illustrate how addiction the sweet poison works. Oreos has become the best selling cookie since its introduction on March 6, 1912 in the Unites States... 104 years ago! The Oreo is a chocolate wafer sandwich cookie with a sweet cream filling in between. The bestselling version currently sold in the United States is manufactured by Nabisco.
A study group at Connecticut College both students and a professor of neuroscience, conducted a study of Oreo cookies performed lab rats and concluded that Oreo cookies are just as addictive as cocaine. “Our research supports the theory that high-fat/high-sugar foods stimulate the brain in the same way that drugs do,” said Professor Joseph Schroeder in a statement. “It may explain why some people can’t resist these foods despite the fact that they know they are bad for them.”
Schroeder and his team found that lab rats formed an “equally strong association” between the pleasure of eating an Oreo cookie and being exposed to cocaine or morphine. Research showed eating Oreos activated more neurons in the lab rat’s brain’s “pleasure center” than being exposed to these highly addictive and dangerous drugs.
Other than being highly addictive, there are many dangerous ingredients in these sandwich cookies:
Reduced Iron- Iron is a potentially toxic heavy metal. In excess, it can cause cancer, heart disease, and other illnesses. This is the remaining product of Rust that has been de-rusted by applying an electrical current and hydrogen to the rust.
Synthetic Folic Acid- The product Lactobacillus Casei, a bacteria. The bacteria is treated with multiple acids until a form of folic acid remains, appearing to be almost pure. One of the dangers associate with this boost of folic acid in our systems is that it has been linked to cancer.
Sugar and corn sugar (high fructose corn syrup)- Rats fed HFCS gained 300% more fat than those being fed (even slightly more amounts of) regular sugar or sugar from fruit. It also fattens your heart with bad cholesterol, causing plaque buildup, leading to hypertension, heart disease and even stroke. Liver, gallbladder and kidneys process HFCS. It is highly destructive to the liver and can cause fatty liver. Scarring of the liver diminishes its ability to process out toxins that will make you sick. HFCS is also high in Mercury levels. Exposure (in young, growing children especially) can result in irreversible brain and nervous system damage.
Soy lecithin- 93% of soy is genetically modified. Soy lecithin can cause breast cancer, has negative effects on fertility and reproduction and may lead to behavioral and cerebral abnormalities.
High Oleic Canola oil- In recent years, scientists have developed sunflower (and other) oils that are bred to be high in monounsaturated fats and low in polyunsaturated fats so they can be used in products that need to be shelf-stable. Canola oil is a genetically engineered plant developed in Canada from the Rapeseed Plant, which is part of the mustard family of plants. Canada paid the FDA the sum of $50 million to have rape registered and recognized as “safe”. (Source: Young Again and others). GMOs are engineered to withstand heavy spraying with pesticides and herbicides and are not routinely tested for safety by the FDA.
According to AgriAlternatives, The Online Innovation and Technology Magazine for Farmers, “By nature, these rapeseed oils, which have long been used to produce oils for industrial purposes, are… toxic to humans and other animals”.
Soybean Oil- Soy is higher in phytoestrogen than any other food. Phytoestrogens are plant based estrogen that mimic the estrogen in our body. Consuming high amounts of phytoestrogen, is the leading cause of breast cancer, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, infertility and low libido.
-Soy is also the king of cell Goitrogens (thyroid suppressors).
-Phytlates found in soy block mineral absorption.
-Also found in Soy, Trypsin inhibitors, inhibits proper digestion of protein.
-93% of Soy is genetically modified.
Calcium Phosphate- Serious side effects can occur from ingesting calcium phosphate: nausea/vomiting, loss of appetite, constipation, stomach upset, unusual weight loss, mental/mood changes, change in the amount of urine, bone/muscle pain, headache, increased thirst, increased urination, weakness, tiredness, fast/pounding heartbeat.
Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, include: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
Vanillin- It’s chemically produced to mimic the taste of vanilla but is not true vanilla. It is often combined with sugar, corn syrup, or a similar low-quality sweetener to make the product taste better. The chemicals used to produce vanillin give the product a vanilla taste by essentially tricking the brain into thinking it’s the real thing. Trace amounts of neurotoxins contained in vanillin have the potential to kill brain cells, because the flavoring tricks the brain to provoke a positive response (due to the release of serotonin), it can be considered an addictive substance.
After reading these ingredients you are able to understand why America’s Favorite GMO Cookie Causes Fatty Liver and Cancer in many individuals. Furthermore, this is just one of many enjoyable foods in the market that is slowly killing us and making it almost impossible for individuals like myself to stay away from these tasty treats.
This is why I believe God’s Word reminds us that…“Food is for the body and the body is not for food” this will help us to choose ever so careful what we eat. Especially in an age where food is not really food, it gives us a deeper appreciation of saying grace before each meal.
Worldwide cases of cancer are likely to rise by nearly 75 percent by 2030 according to a study published in The Lancet Oncology. The number of people with diabetes, cancer and thyroid related problems are increasing worldwide as they change to a more western diet.
Is it possible that a more sinister agenda is being conducted upon the people of this nation? The writings of our founding fathers conveyed that sentiment. Those familiar to non-lethal weapons in modern warfare believe there is a very similar tactic of a soft kill operation being waged against the American people where toxic food, toxic water and toxic vaccines are being used to conquer individuals instead of physical battles.
"If people let government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls of those who live under tyranny.” - Thomas Jefferson
Those students of history can understand the term Democide is the expression revived and redefined by the political scientist R. J. Rummel (1932–2014) as "the murder of any person or people by their government, including genocide, politicide and mass murder". This interest can be seen by the active participation of most of our affluent members in our society today.
Software billionaire Bill Gates the founder of Microsoft purchased 500,000 shares in Monsanto back in 2010 valued at more than $23 million. The Gates Foundation is currently in the process of spending billions of dollars in the name of humanitarianism to establish a global food monopoly dominated by genetically-modified (GM) crops and seeds.
Bill Gates, who previously has advocated the reduction of the human population through the use of vaccines, and his wife Melinda marked the 100th year since the First International Eugenics Congress in London with a family planning summit with abortionists and the United Nations. Bill Gates said: "The world today has 6.8 billion people. That's heading up to about nine billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent!" (About 1 Billion People!)
In 1977, a Russian study found that adults exposed to ethylmercury, a form of mercury in thimerosal a preservative used in vaccines, suffered brain damage years later. Studies on thimerosal poisoning also describe tubular necrosis and nervous system injury, including obtundation, coma and death. As a result of these findings, Russia banned thimerosal from children’s vaccines in 1980. Denmark, Austria, Japan, Great Britain and all the Scandinavian countries have also banned the preservative, so why is thimerosal not banned in the United States?
In the last 12 years, the measles vaccine has caused 98 deaths and 694 people to become disabled. However during the same time span, the CDC reported ZERO deaths from the measles virus. Doctors in the US give infants and children 69 doses of 16 vaccines, starting at birth. In 2009, 10 days after a flu vaccine, Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Desiree Jennings suffered from dystonia, a paralyzing nerve disorder. Regardless of how "safe" they tell you a vaccine is there is still the risk of neurological disorders.
Perhaps to many individuals this information being presented might be difficult and quite impossible to believe, but it’s rather truthful! Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it. In 1932 and 1933, six and possibly up to 20 million people in the Soviet Ukraine and Moldavia died from starvation due to Josef Stalin’s efforts to crush Ukrainian nationalism and to implement his prescription of “change” in the former Soviet Union when the Communist regime nationalized the food industry and forced all farms into collectives.
The Holdomor as it is known in the Ukraine, or “Hunger Plague”, was effectively a terror weapon used by those in power to force submission to new policies the regime instituted to control all aspects of Soviet life. The nationalization of all farms in the Soviet Union into collectives became the tool Stalin used to eradicate opposition and threat to the communist regime. Apologists for the Soviet Union suggest that it was the result of radical economic changes that Stalin was making at record pace that blighted the economy and crushed the farmers when the regime took over all food production in the Soviet Union. Whatever the exact cause, millions perished in just under two years’ time because the government had taken control of food and food production in the region. The United Nations declared the Holdomor as a genocide perpetrated against the Ukrainian people in 2003.
History show us that Socialists, Communists, Islamists and Marxists, use food and the production of food as a weapon against their own people in order to solidify power and control. Hitler himself said that using food as a weapon was “a beautiful instrument . . . for maneuvering and disciplining the masses.”
Stalin and Hitler used food to destroy internal opposition to their policies of “change”. They used it to reward accomplishment, punish failure, and establish the class distinctions of their “new orders.” In Germany the “warrior caste” of the armed forces received the fattest ration cards, skilled and essential workmen the next. Down at the bottom came prisoners, and the Jews. Ration cards that gave the owner right to more food were used to give workmen incentives to seek promotion, to increase their output. Supplies were suddenly cut down regardless of the amount stored to scare the population into believing the situation serious or extra rations were suddenly granted to boost morale.
Pol Pot, Mao, Castro and most despotic regimes and dictators used food to achieve obedience of their people and to annihilate specific classes and races of political opponents. Recently we saw this tactic used in Somalia, where Farah Aideed starved his own people into submission as civil war raged and in Darfur and Rwanda where Islamic regimes sought the annihilation of ‘infidels’. And it would appear that history is about to repeat itself, right here in America.
Any rational American can see and apprehend that something dramatically wrong is taking place in our nation, as we are slowly being forced to give our children a vaccination that causes more harm than good. Farmers are forced to spray hazardous chemicals on their crops and use genetically modified seeds for their harvest. Furthermore, with the lack of employment people in our society are forced to eat processed foods that will reap havoc in their bodies.
Signs of famine and poverty is already developing all over this once great nation. There are more welfare recipients in the U.S. than full-time workers. America is slowly becoming a welfare state as the Soviet Union. A system whereby the government undertakes to protect the health and well-being of its citizens, especially those in financial or social need by means of grants, pensions, and other benefits. In turn, becoming subjects to a global governing system that has the power to rule over every individual.
In the quest of population governance genetically engineered seeds, crops and food products not only pose a threat to our health but to the global food supply. Monsanto’s biotech resistant super seeds are causing crops to fail in a global scale leaving many in horrible physical health and in financial ruin while unsuspectingly preparing the way for the global famine the Word of God speaks about… “A loaf of wheat bread or three loaves of barley will cost a day's pay." -Revelation 6:6
MAY GOD HELP US ALL!!!
Peace,
