Morbid
obesity does not have to plague us any longer. Give raw food a try and maybe
together we can show the world that bariatric surgery is not the only hope for
the morbidly obese. Gastric bypass surgery can kill you. Eating raw foods will
make you healthy. Both offer fast weight loss. Both will let you post before
and after pictures. One offers a life-time of malnutrition, the other offers
abundance, joy, energy, and a glow of well-being so strong everyone will ask
how. Choose wisely. Carlene did,
andbeat obesity, once and for all.
Also on her website she has links to several other
success stories. [I’m sure you’re all familiar with my story
– Jim.]
If You’re an Environmentalist, Why
are You Still Eating Meat?
There has never been a better time
for environmentalists to become vegetarians. Evidence of the environmental
impacts of a meat-based diet is piling up at the same time its health effects
are becoming better known. Meanwhile, full-scale industrialized factory farming
-- which allows disease to spread quickly as animals are raised in close
confinement -- has given rise to recent, highly publicized epidemics of
meat-borne illnesses.

Quote of
the Week The best six doctors anywhere
And no one can deny it
Are sunshine, water, rest, and air
Exercise and diet.
These six will gladly you attend
If only you are willing
Your mind they'll ease
Your will they'll mend
And charge you not a shilling.
- Nursery rhyme quoted by Wayne Fields, What the River Knows, 1990
Until next
week,

RAW LIVING
FOODS EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
Surrounded as we are with
increasing toxicity in our food and environment, eating a pure and healthy diet
is more important than ever. That's why the raw living foods movement is
growing so fast.
There's a lot more to being
a Raw Fooder than eating fruits and veggies. Now you can learn about the raw
living foods lifestyle in the comfort and convenience of your own home. Learn
how to detoxify your body, what to eat, why to eat it, and how
to prepare yummy raw food meals that leave you feeling full and satisfied.
The home study version of the raw living foods lifestyle includes over 45 hours
of video instruction, and a comprehensive manual.
The raw living foods
lifestyle has been taught by a series of visionaries in the past century. Dr.
Ann Wigmore used it to cure herself of colon cancer in the 1950's, and then
taught it for decades at Hippocrates Institute in Boston
and Creative Health Institute in Michigan,
teaching others to heal themselves naturally.
If you can't get into a
residential program, then the home study program is for you. There's so much material in the
home study program - 15 lessons, 30+ videos, 350+ page handbook - that you'd
have to spend at least a month at a place like Creative Health to learn as
much.
The First Lesson is Free - Examine the program in your home
for 30 days. Even if you don't elect to continue your subscription, the first
lesson is still yours to keep.
Helen Terry writes: “I’m watching the DVD you sent – it
arrived here today [D39 – Introduction to Living Foods, WMTV interview with Jim
Carey and Steven Gibb]. It’s wonderfully helpful. I can use it for
several almost vegan acquaintances that want to be there, but need a
third-party recognition sequence. You’ve provided it. Many, many
thanks.”
Completion of
the home study program carries with it certification as a raw living foods
lifestyle Education Professional: Advanced
Practitioner of Health through Nutrition, Exercise and Education
JUNE SPECIAL When
you order the complete raw living foods lifestyle Home Study Program this month
we'll also include over $100 worth of bonus materials:
"There are, in effect, two things: to know and to
believe one knows. To know is science. To believe one knows is ignorance."
- Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine (460-357 BC)
IN
THE NEWS
Organic Standards Being Weakened
Helen Terry
writes: “On visiting the vegetable department at HEB, a huge grocery store
chain here, they have expanded their organic section to include more.
Their organic spinach says it is guaranteed organic based on the Colorado
Organic Standards? What’s
this? Is this a new kid on the block knock-off of the California Organic Standards
(which may or may not even be in effect right now?)?"
Colorado Organic
Standards appear to be the USDA Organic Standards,
so, yes; it appears to me that they’re trying to capitalize on the California Standards,
which are the highest in the US.
We’ve
taught the need for detoxification and
internal cleansing in the Dr. Ann Wigmore program for fifty years. The South
African Journal of Natural Medicine now recommends the same. Unlike these
other scientists, however, Dr. Ann taught that detoxification can best be achieved through eating raw, living foods,
not with concoctions of herbs and vitamins.
Mercola.comhas more than 50,000 pages of
health information that you can now search. NaturalCures.com also has
an extensive online database of non-surgical, non-drug health treatments. You
can use
it for free for a week.
A federal
judge recently found that the New York Consumer Protection Board (NYCPB) had
violated the 1st Amendment freedom of speech rights of a man
promoting natural cures, organic foods, and revealing corruption in the FDA,
the pharmaceutical industry, the food industry and political and governmental.
Now the Executive Deputy
Director of the NYCPB has been arrested for felony possession of cocaine.
(Reuters
Health) - In a
study of adolescents who were admitted to a psychiatric hospital, those with body image concerns were
more likely to suffer from symptoms of depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts
and other mental health problems than those who didn't have such concerns.
Measles
Vaccine Undeniably Linked to Autism - If this sounds like medical heresy to
you then you will certainly want to review the compelling evidence for this
important finding.
How
Prozac Works in Your Brain - New research shows exactly how antidepressants
work to address the 'chemical imbalance' present in the brains of those who are
depressed.
It'll take
more than public service campaigns to solve the nation's obesity problem, according
to fitness experts who say neighborhoods must be designed so people can get
around without their cars..
(Reuters
Health) - People who can't seem to relax and renew on weekends off from work
may have a higher long-term risk of dying from heart disease, a study
suggests.
Do
You Have Diabetes And Not Even Know It? - One-third of the diabetics in America
do not realize that they have diabetes. How can you find out if you are one of
the 25 million Americans with it?
People who eat lots of fruit and
vegetables are likely to have fewer wrinkles, says
a new study.
This is a lifestyle
choice, not a religion. Even if you're not eating 100% raw, how much better are you doing than
when you were on the SAD (Standard
American Diet)? Eating outside of the program is nothing to feel guilty about.
Two Parables
“When I didn’t do my homework, my
teacher would embarrass me in front of the entire class. This didn’t make me
love to do homework. Instead it made me hate the subject that teacher taught.”
“I didn’t call home very frequently. Whenever I did call home, the
first reaction I heard was always, ‘How come you didn’t call until now? Why do
you make us worry so much about you?’ This made me feel guilty. But I so
disliked hearing this that I kept pushing off making telephone calls to my
parents. I wish they would have said, ‘We’re so happy to hear from you.’ This
would have made me call more often.”
One Big
Green Smoothie a day is a great start... By that we mean lots of greens, and just a bit of fruit.
The rest of your healthier lifestyle will come with time.

Union City, Michigan - Nicholas Tschense to speak. On
September 12, 1996 Nicholas' journey into this world began. He was born with a
brain injury of unknown cause. A testament of determination and human spirit,
Nicholas persists with his will to help himself. His keen mind, sure spirit and
physical challenges make him even more determined to achieve his potential.
Along the way he has gained incredible insights and discoveries he desires to
share with others. At a tender 3 years of age, he stated his soul's purpose is
to teach God's messages. Fortunately, God granted Nicholas an incredible gift
to write. Through his Alphabet Board, he writes exquisite poetry and profound
spiritual messages about philosophy, beauty, nature and God. His teachings are
pure and simple. His words resonate the power of truth that set one free.” See
