Nutritious God-Made Foods Vs. Unhealthy Man-Made Products

This is a reprint of an article I wrote in September of 2007. It was the second highest ranked article on this blog site based on the second most views by my readers.

"If it wasn't a food 100 years ago, it's a man-made product."

I'd like to give you a standard by which you can measure all food products to know if they are healthy or not. Use these keys to good nutrition and tips to eating healthy when you're out food shopping or eating in a restaurant. Simply ask yourself these two questions:

Question #1 - "Was this a food 100 years ago?"

Question #2 - "Is this a God-made food or a man-made product?"

If the food product you are considering eating or drinking WAS a food 100 years ago, then it is most probably a whole food and healthy for you. In other words, it is probably a GOD-MADE FOOD that was designed by God to meet the nutritional needs of your body. Therefore, it is a good whole food and should be eaten and enjoyed.

However, if you're considering a food product that WAS NOT a food 100 years ago, then it is most definitely a MAN-MADE PRODUCT and is NOT healthy for your body. Don't eat it or drink it! It is simply not good for your health and will put a toxic stress on your organs.

Let's look at a couple of examples and see if this measuring rod holds true.

1. An Organic Apple - This was a food 100 years ago, and it is a God-made food that is healthy to eat today.

2. High Fructose Corn Sweetener - This was not a food 100 years ago, and it is a man-made product that is NOT healthy to eat. Unfortunately, man (food manufacturers) has found a way to put this unhealthy man-made toxic sweetener in most of the products in the supermarket, often without the consumer even knowing it's there, and usually without the consumer knowing how dangerously unhealthy it is for his health.

3. An Organic Carrot - This was a food 100 years ago, and it is a God-made food that provides good nutrition to your body.

4. Hydrogenated Oils (Trans Fats) - This was not a food 100 years ago, and it is a man-made product that is very UN-healthy for your body. Unfortunately, this toxic form of oil is found in many man-made food products in the supermarket and in restaurants.

5. Artificial Sweeteners - These are obviously man-made products and were NOT a food 100 years ago. They are extremely toxic to your body and cause all kinds of terrible physical health problems. Therefore, never use Aspartame, NutraSweet, Splenda, and Saacharin.

6. MSG (monosodium glutamate) - This was not a food 100 years ago, and it is a man-made food additive that is very UN-healthy for your body. Unfortunately, food manufacturers and restaurant owners have found hundreds of ways to sneak it into their man-made food products without the consumer even knowing it's there. Avoid this excito-toxin at all costs.

7. Organic 100% Whole Wheat Flour - This was a food 100 years ago, and it still is because it was made by God. This is the only kind of wheat flour to bake with and eat.

8. "Enriched" Wheat Flour - This was NOT a food 100 years ago, and it is a man-made product that is very UN-healthy for your body. Most of the good nutrition has been bleached out and stripped out, with a few synthetic vitamins and minerals added back in that your body cannot even use. Unfortunately, this is the most common kind of flour that food manufacturers put into their hundreds of baked goods. Another danger with eating this man-made product is that it is most probably a genetically modified (GM) product that is very UN-healthy for you.

I could go on and on with a ton of examples, but I hope you see my point. Most foods fit into one of these two categories: God-made foods and man-made foods. Most food products can be classified into one of these categories, which will help you choose what to eat and what to avoid.

There are a few things that do not easily fit into these two categories, and if you ask if they were a food 100 years ago, some people might say "Yes," while others would say "No." These are special cases that you need to look deeper at in order to make a wise decision. For example, what about pork products and shellfish?

The truth is that God did not create pigs and shellfish to be eaten by man. They are God-made creatures, but they are NOT God-made foods. Let me explain.

God created certain creatures to be scavengers on the earth and to eat nasty things like the decomposing flesh of other animals. Pigs, shrimp, lobsters, crabs, clams, scallops, and vultures are all scavengers that God designed to eat rubbish and garbage and other scum on the ground and ocean seafloor. When you study the dietary restrictions that God gave His people in the Bible, you will find all of these scavengers prohibited for health reasons. When man does not abide by these dietary restrictions that God set up for our good, he starts consuming a whole host of toxins that accumulate in his body and eventually lead to all kinds of terrible physical health problems and illnesses. If you don't believe me, ask any marine biologist about the levels of mercury and other poisons found in clams and scallops. In summary, certain creatures that God made were strictly forbidden to be eaten because God did not make them to be food for mankind. Pigs, shellfish, birds of prey, and the like are not to be eaten by man, and if they are, they will cause him to become sick and loaded with toxins that are destructive to the body. They are God-made creatures, but they are not God-made foods.

In conclusion, when you're out shopping for food or eating at a restaurant, always ask yourself these two questions.

1. Is this a God-made food or a man-made food?

2. Was this a food 100 years ago?

If the answer to both of these questions is "YES" - then eat it and enjoy it.

If the answer to either of these questions is "NO" - then do NOT eat it because it is not healthy for your body and will cause you many health problems.

Learning Nutrition from the Healthiest Cultures in the World

I was just studying the statistics on my nutrition and health blog and I discovered that this article from 2007 was the most popular blog post of all. Therefore, I've decided to republish it so that others can benefit from it.

Please also note that I now have new blog entitled:

"Christian Parents Educating their Children God's Way Vs Public School Indocrination"

Click here to visit: AllEducationIsReligious.blogspot.com

Now, here is the original article I wrote on learning nutrition from the healthiest cultures in the world.

I've got a health and nutrition project for you that I'm sure you'll enjoy and learn a lot from.

Take the time to do a bit of research on the internet on some of the healthiest cultures of the world. By doing so, you will learn more of the keys to good nutrition and to eating healthy, and you'll understand why drinking the Feast, a whole food based InstaFresh drink powder nutritional supplement, is so important.

Here are a few leads for you...

1. The HUNZA people of the Himalayan Mountains:


The Hunza people's health, nutrition, longevity, and endurance are legendary. They live up to 90 and 100 years of age and are strong and active even in old age. One thing you'll notice about them is that they eat a high natural carbohydrate, low animal protein diet. Their food staples are barley, buckwheat, wheat, assorted vegetables, various kinds of fruits, mostly apricots, apples, and grapes. The most amazing thing is that they have none of modern man's dreaded illnesses.


2. The BULGARIANS of Eastern Europe:

There are actually more centenarians in Bulgaria than in any other country in the world. Don't you think it would be worth it to check out the reasons for their exceptionally great health and longevity? Their diet consists of largely black bread (most whole rye and barley), vegetables, and soured milk in the form of yogurt and kefir. In addition, Bulgarians eat very little meat. In fact, most of the centenarians in Bulgaria are vegetarian.

3. The RUSSIANS:

Russian has seven times more centenarians per million than America has. They are known for their good health, longevity, and endurance. They are a low protein people. Surprisingly, a great number of Russia's centenarians are total vegetarians.


4. The JAPANESE OF THE FAR EAST:

Japanese people have traditionally had a very healthy diet. Some of the keys to their longevity include eating lots of fresh vegetables, fish, fermented foods like miso soup and natto, and plenty of grains and rice. Unfortunately, white rice is now the norm in Japan, but it wasn't always so. Nevertheless, the Japanese live longer than most people in Western countries.

Dangerous Ingredients - Keys to Good Nutrition & to Eating Healthy Feast on Organic Whole Food

DANGEROUS INGREDIENTS
Secretly Lurking in Our Foods Today

Here are some examples of what is in many of our foods today - unknown and unseen by the general public.

Hormones, Steroids, Antibiotics found in animal products

Research shows these compounds can be absorbed by fruits and vegetables grown in soil treated with manure from animals fed antibiotics.

Toxins and Pollutants from contaminated soil and water

These can stay in our environment years after they've been banned, such as DDT.

Pesticides, Fertilizers, and Fumigants - These are all unnatural compounds.

MSG (Monosodium Glutamate) - MSG is a neurotoxic flavor enhancer that's hidden in many of our foods under a long list of deceiving names.

Partially Hydrogenated Oil - Gives baked goods and snacks longer shelf life but contains high levels of dangerous trans fat.

High Fructose Corn Syrup

With a high glycemic index, it converts to fat more than any other sugar. Usually made with genetically modified corn and genetically modified enzymes.

Genes from Bacteria, Viruses, Plants, Animals, and even Humans inserted into plants like soybeans, corn, canola, and cotton

Unlike traditional breeding, genetic engineering can create life forms that would normally never exist in nature. Shockingly, U.S. food manufacturers are NOT required to put "genetically modified" on any food labels! This leaves us in the dark.

Artificial Colors and Flavorings

Artificial colors are chemical compounds made mainly from coal-tar; artificial flavors are cheaply produced chemical mixtures that mimic natural flavors.

Artificial Sweeteners

Despite claims that these are "safe" food additives, remember, they are NOT natural. For example, aspartame is made up of three chemicals. These sweeteners are often toxic to the body and cause all kinds of serious health problems.

Benzoate Preservatives

These are phenolic compounds often added to food to preserve fats and prevent fats from becoming rancid; these preservatives produce low levels of hormones.

SO... What's the RESULT of all of these dangerous ingredients in our food?

Food that's been denatured, stripped of much of its nutritional value and integrity, and food that could potentially cause serious health issues.

But with THE FEAST, you get REAL NUTRITION.
Pure, concentrated,
unadulterated,
live,
whole food-based nutrition.

The Feast, by Uri International, is pure nutrition, free of dangerous ingredients.

Junk Food Americans - Keys to Good Nutrition & Eating Healthy on Organic Whole Food

WHAT ARE AMERICANS EATING?

TOO MUCH JUNK FOOD!

An analysis of the diet of Americans reveals that sugary snacks and sodas are consumed more readily than fruits and vegetables.

Researcher Gladys Block, PhD. and Professor of Epidemiology and Public Health Nutrition at the University of California, Berkeley, discovered that at least 30 percent of the total calorie intake of Americans surveyed was from sweets, desserts, salty snacks, fruit-flavored drinks and alcoholic beverages. [ UC Berkeley Press Release by Sarah Yang, June 1, 2004]

The result?

JUNK FOOD that provides calories but not vitamins and minerals - in other words, "EMPTY CALORIES."

Did you know this shocking fact:

89% of Americans DO NOT eat enough fruits and vegetables;

they'd rather eat fast foods or processed foods.

The American Heart Association, World Health Organization, American Cancer Society, and the USDA all agree - everyone needs to EAT MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES.

Click on the link below to find out how David Uri LeBaron, the pioneer and innovator of live, whole food-based nutrition, can help you and your family get your 5-9 servings of fruits and vegetables each day.

Uri's revolutionary InstaFresh drying process turns freshly juiced fruits and vegetables into a powder in thirty seconds, without every going over 99 degrees F., as crazy as that sounds.

Getting your and your kids their 5-9 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables a day - ONCE DIFFICULT, NOW EASY!

Ultimate Nutrition - Keys to Good Nutrition & Eating Healthy Feast on Organic Whole Food

INTRODUCING THE BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY THAT LOCKS IN THE REAL NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF FRESH ORGANIC FRUITS AND VEGETABLES - GUARANTEED!

This article was written by David Uri LeBaron,
pioneer and innovator of live, whole food-based nutrition,
expert with over 30 years of experience in whole foods, herbs, and nutrition,
developer of the proprietary Insta-Fresh Drying Process that preserves higher nutritional qualities than any other drying process in the world,
and founder and CEO of Uri International, a leading company in the development of whole food-based nutrition.

"Today I'd like to share with you another reason why The Feast gives you REAL nutrition as only whole food-based nutrition can. It's your most convenient source of REAL whole food-based nutrition that's

An unparalleled quality, quantity, variety, and value
of live whole foods and fresh raw juice concentrates.

The Feast gives you a quality, quantity, variety, and value of REAL whole food-based nutrition found nowhere else.

It's the one and only live whole food-based nutritional product on the planet that delivers a full, synergistic spectrum of over 176 all natural ingredients, including:

30 antioxidant rich fruits and berries

30 powerful greens and vegetables

11 nutrient dense seeds, nuts, and sprouts

83 plus active enzymes and full spectrum fulvic mineral blend

22 resilient living, beneficial probiotics

All in ONE concentrated whole food-based supplement for today's active and demanding lifestyles. Feed your body the feast it deserves!

But there's even more.

This unique breakthrough gives you more REAL whole food-based nutrition than any other supplement, formula, or green food or drink I've ever seen because...

It locks in the nutritional INTEGRITY of these fruits, vegetables and whole foods, so you get the nutritional benefits as Nature intended!

As soon as a fruit or vegetable is picked off the vine, it begins to die. So if you eat an apple or a tomato that's been picked days or weeks ago, you don't get all of its nutritional benefits. You may only get a fraction.

But not so with the fruits, vegetables, and whole foods found in the Feast. Many are locally grown, on our own certified organic farmland or on our network of partner farms that produce organic and/or natural crops, so we can control the freshness of the harvest.

This farmland is some of the most nutrient rich soil on earth! This fertile land began as a prehistoric lakebed, layered with deep soil, created and kept rich by volcanic ash, mountain run off, and organic matter.

It's absolutely laden with selenium, friendly and beneficial organisms, fulvic acid, rare earth and vital plant micronutrients necessary for optimal plant growth.

Combine this with clean air, sunshine, elevation, low humidity, proper crop rotation, and continued re-mineralization from surrounding snow capped mountains, and you get SUPERIOR, NUTRIENT DENSE, ORGANIC CROPS!

What's more, I even have samples of the fruits and vegetables delivered to me so I can check if they're ready for harvest. If they are not ready for harvest, we wait. If so, we pick...then quickly wash them, turn them into juice, and use the InstaFresh Drying Process to "lock in" the nutritional value and integrity of these fruits and vegetables.

The result?
A synergistic, all natural, nutritionally balanced combination of Nature's most beneficial whole food concentrates, minerals, enzymes, and probiotics.
All in a delicious, easy-to-use drink!"

Weight Loss 4 Carb Addicts Pt 15 - Keys to Good Nutrition & Tips to Eating Healthy Feast on Organic Whole Food

Weight Loss for Carb Addicts Pt 15

There's a lot of us out there,

CARBOHYDRATE ADDICTS, that is,

and losing weight is always a challenge for us.

Here's a secret I'd like to share with you that I used
when I lost my 23+ pounds and no longer fit into my pants.

CARB ADDICT WEIGHT LOSS SECRET:

When you sit down to eat a meal,
divide your plate into thirds.

One third, your favorite third, will of course,
be CARBS! I'm talking starchy carbohydrates like
pasta, brown rice, whole grain bread, potatoes, etc.
Enjoy that one third of your plate
because that's all the starchy carbs you'll get for the meal.

One third will be a protein food
such as a healthy organic natural meat,
organic raw cheese, peanut butter, etc.

One third of your plate will be fresh organic vegetables
such as green beans, corn, broccoli, peas, etc.
Remember, the best way to eat your vegetables is raw.
However, if you feel you need to cook them,
then the best way is to lightly steam them in spring water.
No canned vegetables are allowed (they're dead food).

In addition to the three thirds on your plate,
you also get to eat a fresh salad with each lunch and dinner made from fresh, organic, raw greens and vegetables
with a big squeeze of fresh lemon for your dressing
(avoid salad dressings that are loaded with carbs)
or you can make your own home made dressing
with apple cider vinegar, virgin olive oil, and spring water.

Eating your meal in this way will help balance out the carbs you're eating and keep your blood sugar from spiking. In other words, the veggies, salad, and protein will help to offset the effects of 1/3 of your plate being carbs. In this way you will learn to limit your starchy carbs to just one third of your meal, which in turn will help you to lose weight.

No more sitting down to a huge bowl of pasta or rice
or potatoes and pigging out on carbs. That will (or should I say
"has" made) make you fat.

Carbs are good for your body IN MODERATION!

Carbs are good for your body when properly balanced out
with equal amounts of greens, vegetables, protein, and salad.

Carbs are good for your body when you eat
small portions of the right kinds of healthy whole food carbs
such as brown rice, whole grain breads, organic potatoes, etc.

IF you will learn to apply this secret to your eating habits,
no matter if you're eating at home or at a restaurant,

THEN you will enjoy the benefits of being able to enjoy
at least a small portion of your favorite carbs each meal,
while at the same time losing weight because you're
eating them in the right proportions and amounts.

When I first learned this secret,
I started planning ahead and looking forward to
upcoming meals just to be able to enjoy my favorite carbs.
For example, I planned on 1/3 plate of pasta on Monday,
with the rest of my meal of course,
and 1/3 plate of my favorite Persian rice on Tuesday,
and 1/3 plate of my wife's homemade mashed potatoes on Wed.,
and 1/3 plate of fresh organic whole grain bread on Thurs.

In this way, I was not completely depriving myself of
all of my favorite and beloved carbs.
Instead, I was learning to space them out,
eat them in proportion to vegetables and proteins,
and keep everything in balance.

One final secret to remember:

Eat your whole meal in one hour or less.
Don't let your meal continue on past an hour
because if you do, a second round of insulin
will kick in to your system and spike your blood sugar.

Carb addicts have a way of eating way too many carbs
in one meal, at one sitting,
which tends to kick in too much insulin,
which in turn spikes their blood sugar,
all of which eventually will start to
set them up for some kind of diabetes condition.

My philosophy is this:

YOU CAN HAVE YOUR CARBS, AND EAT YOUR PROTEIN & VEGETABLES TOO! ALONG WITH A GOOD SIZE SALAD.

One final note.
You can have as much salad as you want.

Also, if you're really still hungry after
eating your complete meal and salad,
you can have more carbs at that point,
AS LONG AS you also eat equal size portions of more protein and more vegetables.
In this way, everything is kept in proper proportion
and nutritional balance that protects your health
and your waist line.

Now that you know these secrets,
GO AND PRACTICE THEM!

I learned these secrets from two carb addicts who were both
grossly overweight and learned how to overcome their addiction.
Their book is entitled,

"The Carbohydrate Addict's Lifespan Program,"
by Dr. Richard Heller and Dr. Rachael Heller.

I would recommend this book to all carb addicts
who want to learn how to lose weight
and take control of their health and weight
and overcome their carbohydrate addiction.

MSG & Weight Loss Pt 13 - Keys to Good Nutrition & to Eating Healthy Feast on Organic Whole Food

Healthy Weight Loss Pt 13

ELIMINATE ALL SOURCES OF M.S.G.

You've probably heard of "MSG," which stands for

Mono Sodium Glutamate.

MSG is an "EXCITO-TOXIN" that is added to food in order to make it taste better AND in order to make you eat more of that food.

In other words, MSG is added to MAKE YOU FAT

by getting you to CRAVE the food and eat MORE.

The way the food companies increase their profits

is to sell more food, and they've found one of

the best ways to sell more food is

to get you to crave it and eat more by adding MSG.

Do a little research on your own by Googling

"The Dangers of MSG."

You'll be shocked at what you discover.

You'll find that this food additive

actually KILLS BRAIN CELLS.

This is NOT something you want in your food,

and yet it's literally everywhere.

MSG has found its way into many of the foods

that you buy in the supermarket

and into most of the snack food that you eat.

The food manufacturers are using DECEPTIVE METHODS

TO HIDE the presence of MSG in their foods

so that consumers don't know it's even there.

They use a myriad of other "names" for MSG

including such misleading titles as

"natural flavors," "autolyzed yeast extract," etc.

For the latest list of these deceptive names for MSG,

just do a Google search such as "names for MSG."

Most potato chips and similar snacks

are loaded with MSG.

No wonder it's hard to stop eating them!

Lots of pre-packaged, canned, and frozen food

also have plenty of MSG in them.

Many foods in local and chain restaurants

are also loaded with MSG.

This is no longer simply a "Chinese Restaurant" syndrome,

but it now is a problem with most restaurants.

Once you discover all of the deceptive names for MSG,

you too will be shocked at how many foods contain

this dangerous neuro-toxin.

If you're concerned about losing weight,

you'll want to make sure that you AVOID THIS TOXIN

at all costs and in all of the hidden places in your diet.

Give your body the Sabbath day of rest that your Creator created for your rejuvenation.

Set aside Friday evening to Saturday evening each week for rest.

Get 8 or 9 hours of sleep, preferably going to bed by 10 pm.

Fast once a week on natural spring water to give your body

the time it needs to rest from digesting & processing food

and to heal itself.

When possible, take a 3-minute "siesta" after lunch

to give your mind and body a short rest.

Learn how to manage stress and how to take better care of your body.

Daily exercise is an important part of reducing stress

in your body and mind.

Believe it or not,

one study I read about found that

Friday evening to Saturday evening

was the most restful period of the whole week.

Do you think it could be because

our Creator designed it that way

when He gave us the Sabbath day to rest?

STOP WORKING ONE DAY A WEEK!

Stop doing all the normal things that you do every day

for one full day.

Do something restful, relaxing, fun, spiritual, and rejuvenating.

Spend more time on that special day

with God in prayer and meditation, worship and praise,

and more time with your family

doing fun things together and enjoying each other's company.

And spend more time with close friends

with whom you can relax and truly be yourself.

And always remember, the secret to losing weight and keeping it off, is to make nutritious and healthy LIFESTYLE CHANGES that become positive healthy habits in your daily routine. Systematic undereating and resisting the temptation to overeat is the first step to change.

Shocking Beef Recall - Keys to Good Nutrition & Tips to Eating Healthy Feast on Organic Whole Food

Click on the link below and
read what's happening with
our school children, beef products, and the USDA.

It is truly shocking what has happened...

This link will connect you to an article
at the website for Natural News by Mike Adams.

USDA Recalls 143 Million Pounds of Beef Products Already Consumed by Schoolchildren; Slaughterhouse Atrocities Shock World

My commentary:

With all that's going on in the beef industry, poultry industry, and with other meat products, consumers must be on their guard, get educated about what's really happening to our meat and food supply, and start making better choices.

I personally recommend that you buy only organic grass-fed free-range beef that comes from animals that have NOT been fed GMO grain, have NOT been fed or injected with hormones, have NOT been given antibiotics, and that have been treated humanely.

How do you find this kind of meat? You have to take responsibility for your own health and your family's health, and you have to go out and do some research wherever you live until you find meat products that are actually safe and good for your health. Stop buying your meats at the grocery store. Stop buying the cheapest meats that you can find. Be willing to spend more money on meat that is safe and good for you, and stop wasting your money on processed beef that is unsafe, unhealthy, and actually dangerous to your health. Go to your local health food store and start asking questions about where you can find the healthiest meat. Look on the internet. Talk to people who know about and value organic food. And finally, beware of all of these health destroying processed meat products that are served in all of the fast food restaurants, in almost all restaurants, and that are being served to your kids at school.

Finally, if you live in the country like I do, you might even consider raising a few cows or bulls of your own for meat. I'm planning on doing this quite soon because I will know exactly what grass and hay that I've fed my animals. If this is too much for you to do, find a neighbor or someone locally who does this and get your meat from them.

An Apple A Day - Keys to Good Nutrition & Tips to Eating Healthy Feast on Organic Whole Food

EAT AN ORGANIC APPLE EVERY DAY

I'm sure you've all heard this popular saying,

"AN APPLE A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY"

Is there any truth to this popular proverb?

Let me tell you; I'm living proof that this proverb is true. For many years I've started my day with some kind of fruit, usually an apple, because I've known that it helps to cleanse my colon and to aid my body in the morning elimination process.

As you may not know, there is only one time during the day to eat fruit, and that is always on an empty stomach. The best time is in the morning after you've gotten up, had a large glass of water to drink, and have started your day. It is during the morning hours that your body is designed to eliminate the food that it has digested from the evening before. You don't really want to eat a large heavy breakfast during the morning elimination cycle. Instead, you should focus on eating a delicious organic apple and possibly one other fruit. You can eat fruit at other times during the day as a snack, but always make sure that it's on an empty stomach. The worst thing you can do is to eat fruit after a meal or with a meal because it will surely ferment in your intestines and cause you lots of problems.

Apples are great at cleaning out your system and aiding your body in the elimination process. It's only a short while after eating my morning apple that my body experiences a significant bowel movement as part of eliminating the previous evening's meal.

The best fruits to eat that will aid your body in the elimination cycle are:

organic apples, avocados, organic grapes, watermelon, cantaloupe, organic prunes, fresh organic or dried unsulfered apricots, dates, dried figs, organic cherries, organic pears, grapefruit, oranges, raspberries, boysenberries, organic strawberries, guava, mangoes, and papayas.

These are the best morning fruits to eat because they each have a good amount of FIBER in them which will aid in the elimination process.
