Nutrition and Physical Degeneration

The results of that journey, photographed regularly and precisely, can leave little doubt: the modern diet kills.

This is a first-rate travelogue, superb cultural anthropological study, and an astonishingly thorough analysis of human behaviors.The native tribes of Eastern and Central Africa used large quantities of sweet potato, beans and some cereals, when they were living sufficiently near fresh water streams and lakes large quantities of fish were eaten, goats or cattle, or both, were domesticated by many tribes, other tribes used wild animal life quite liberally. In the production of white flour approximately eighty per cent or four-fifths of the phosphorus and calcium content are usually removed, together with the vitamins and minerals provided in the embryo or germ” of the grain. times as much copper, 49 times as much iodine, and at least ten times that number of fat-soluable vitamins. So this should really have been an amazing finding to educate people of the time and instruct how we conduct our societies and sort out what we eat, because what is the point of civilisation?

White flour was little more than highly refined carbs, which rapidly enter the bloodstream — empty calories. White flour and sugar were common ingredients in many meals I consumed between childhood and into my 40s. Partly because it wasn't carefully packaged but also because a paperback isn't constructed for heavy use. Although not a fast-paced or exciting read, it contains wisdom that is crucial to the health and survival of the human race. Sugar is a concentrated form of energy (carbohydrates) and can quickly fill up the body's caloric needs without providing any body-building minerals.Milk, Meat, Blood) It literally went without mention that the milk was raw as were any products made from it.

After a while it becomes very repetitive, it just goes on and on and on with examples of exactly the same problems and situations. It is much more profitable for them if we are not sick enough to die but sick enough, for example, to need cavity fillings, orthodontics, or medications like statins that must be taken for the rest of our lives.There are so many angles - such as soil depletion, corruptive changes in the human form and the catastrophic physical decline of the species - and complications stemming from the changes wrought in the way humans and animals eat, one needs to read the book. So shocking to see such strong evidence that all orthodontic needs are NOT genetic but actually evidences of nutritional deficiencies IN UTERO. Travelling the world, observing and recording, like Darwin, he made a revolutionary discovery that is slowly percolating into medical science. Mental disease in infants can be traced in a high percentage of cases to a lack of over-nutrition in the mother (since sufficient nutrition only takes care of her own health).

Nevertheless, this book is fantastic in 3 ways: [1] It shows us what science used to think was correct; [2] excellent descriptions of "primitive" diets (the delight of most readers of this book); [3] Can also be read as an anecdote-filled nutritional travelogue. Isolating variables in human being living habits is next to impossible and why spend all your time trying to do that to cure sick people when instead you can go hunting for healthy people and learn from them? For the Indians living inside the Rocky Mountains in the far North of Canada, the successful nutrition for nine months of the year was largely limited to wild game, largely moose and caribou, as well as growing plants, in the winter they made use of bark and buds of trees.Chapter after chapter of detailed surveys, statistics, and citation establishes that diet directly influences not only the superficial problems of tooth decay, but much more serious issues of prenatal development, degenerative disease, and mental acuity. His observations and clinical studies are documented in this book, and if you choose to read it, it will open your eyes.
