Do
you suffer from a sugar addiction, trembling, anxiety, overweight, fatigue, wobbly if hungry,
confusion, irritability, palpitations, blurred vision, cold hands and feet, low
blood pressure, blackouts, angry outbursts, rambling speech, violence, peeing a little often, depression, inappropriate or strange behaviour,
forgetfulness, road rage, and
an inability to concentrate?
Chances
are, you’re one of the millions who suffer from blood sugar abnormalities
because of your diet and lifestyle.
The
brain runs on glucose, claiming up to 30% of the body’s production of this
essential sugar. ‘Blood sugar’ levels are vital to the correct functioning of
both brain and
body in the right amounts and at the right rate. When this delicate balance is
disrupted, hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar) or hyperglycaemia (high blood sugar) result, throwing you into turmoil. It’s estimated
1 in 4 of us may be suffering from some form of glucose intolerance, manifesting
in the problems above as well as insulin resistance and its end-game, diabetes
mellitus, type 2.
Tea, coffee, sucrose, chocolate, junk food, cigarettes and other ‘mood
enhancers’ are constantly available in mental institutions. Not good. These
stimulate the production of adrenalin and
fool the body into releasing glucose from the liver (glycogen) before it is required. Blood sugar levels
soar. Frequent intakes of these foods cause the pancreas to
over-produce insulin, the hormone responsible for transporting
glucose into the cells. Excess amounts of insulin then cause
blood sugar levels abruptly to dive. Symptoms of glucose intolerance set in
and a vicious cycle is created as more sugar is craved to relieve the symptoms.
Chaotic fluctuations of high and low blood sugar will end you up with an exhausted
pancreas and
adrenal glands, not to mention the accompanying physical and mental woes described
earlier.
All this is
controllable with diet and exercise. Remember: bread, pasta, doughnuts,
potatoes, chips (fries), rolls, breakfast cereals, rice (no matter how
righteous) and all grains break down into glucose in the body. If this
energy is not burnt off, your brain will stash it where you hang your six-guns
(fat never made you fat!). Since most don’t exercise but still hog down
these foods, they end up with problems with blood sugar, critters (Candida),
and get cranky, growly and wobbly when you ask them to pass the mustard. If
that’s you, try the following:
·
COMMENCE THE
FOOD FOR THOUGHT LIFESTYLE REGIMEN (at the back of the book), ensuring you cut out junk foods, especially
sodas and soft drinks, sucrose, refined high-glycaemic carbohydrates such as
ALL GRAINS AND POTATOES
·
Eat small meals
often to even out blood sugar
·
Give up the
foods and beverages listed in the Foods to Avoid section, especially
alcoholic drinks, and ESPECIALLY BEERS AND LAGERS
·
If fungi and
yeasts have become a problem, switch to the ANTI-CANDIDA LIFESTYLE
REGIMEN (See section on Candidiasis in ABC’s of Disease)
· VITAL: Increase water intake to four pints (2 litres) per day
· VITAL: Work up to regular, vigorous exercise (one hour per day, 3-4 times per week, and I don’t mean dragging Toto round the cricket pitch). Consult a doctor if you have to, though what good that will do I haven’t the foggiest
· COMMENCE THE BASIC SUPPLEMENT PROGRAM, and ANTI-CANDIDA/FUNGAL SUPPLEMENTATION if appropriate. Add to that:
· Zinc gluconate, 25 mg, twice per day
· Chromium picolinate, 200 mcg per day, taken every other day, two weeks on, two weeks off.
· Manganese, 10 mg, twice per day
Don’t say I don’t care about you.
Avoid handling weapons during treatment.
Try
this!
Ø Little or no meat in the diet. Any meat consumed should be hormone and pesticide-free. White meat is better than red. Avoid pork
Ø Avoid sugar, dairy, coffee and alcohol
Ø Eat properly constituted, organic, whole, living foods, a high percentage raw. If you want hot, briefly steam your veggies. Do not murder them. Remember that heat kills enzymes. Excellent recipes are provided in our companion guide, Food For Thought
Ø The ideal balance is: 80% alkali/20% acidic ash foods. Most diets today comprise 90% acid/10% alkali!
Ø Some broiled fish, deep and cold caught, eaten sparingly is OK
Ø Avoid the foods below
Ø Hydrate the body (2 litres (4 pints) of clean, fresh water a day)
Ø Keep high-glycaemic fruit intake down. Eat more fruits that have low sugar-conversion, such as pears and apples
Ø Juice veggies
Ø Eat six small meals a day, ensuring a) that you don’t go hungry, and b) that the body has a constant supply of nutrients
Ø THE BASIC SUPPLEMENT PROGRAM will consist of ionised colloidal trace minerals, antioxidant tablets, Vit C and B complexes and essential fats
Ø Exercise (to get everything moving and assist in detoxing the body in an oxygen-rich environment). A regular walk in the early morning air is also healthy and very invigorating
Ø Rest. Rest. Rest. Rest. Rest
Ø Reduce environmental toxicity (avoid jobs using dangerous chemicals, radiation, etc.)
Ø Use safe personal care products (Neways)
Ø Use safe household products (Neways)
Foods to Avoid
Ø Pork products (bacon, sausage, hot-dogs, luncheon meat, ham, etc.) These are high in nitrites and are known homotoxins which can cause high blood urea and dikitopiprazines, which cause brain tumours and leukaemia.[1]
Ø Scavenger meats (inc. ALL shellfish and other carrion-eaters – see Leviticus 11 in the Bible). Carrion-eaters, pork and shellfish in particular, concentrate toxins of other animals in their tissues, which we then consume to our detriment. The same goes for the elimination organs of commercially raised animals, such as liver and kidney, which can be high in drug and pesticide residues
Ø Aspartame/saccharin, artificial sweeteners. These are known mental impairment problems and cancer risks.
Ø Refined sugar/flour/rice. SUCROSE FEEDS CANCER Restricted amounts of wholegrain bread are OK. Use only wholegrain rice. No sugars should be consumed other than those contained naturally in whole foods
Ø Hydrogenated & partially hydrogenated fats (margarine)
Ø Junk (processed) food, including fizzy sodas and other soft drinks containing sugar, artificial sweeteners or phosphoric acid, which are drunk out of aluminium cans
Ø Fat-free foods. Essential fats are essential!
Ø Olestra, canola, soy, etc. Avoid fake or synthetic fats. Soy, in its unfermented state (meat and milk substitute products), disrupts the hormone (endocrine) system, blocks the absorption of calcium and magnesium, and acts like estrogen in the body. Small usage of fermented soy products is OK (soy sauce, miso, etc). For more information on soy, see The Shadow of Soy in The ABC’s of Disease, Food For Thought, or Health Wars
Ø Polluted water (chlorinated or fluoridated – see Health Wars, Water Under the Bridge)
Ø Caffeine products
Ø Alcohol products
Ø Excess refined salt. Use Himalayan salt instead.
