Veganism Resulted in Vitamin Deficiency Kills Baby

by

Vegan parents who fed their 11-month-old daughter only vegan mother’s milk went on trial in northern France on Tuesday charged with neglect after their baby died suffering from vitamin A and B12 deficiency. Sergine and Joel Le Moaligou, whose vegan BELIEFS diet forbids consuming any animal product including eggs and cow’s milk.

From http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=CNG.35c2caa5efa0e183b7b38a2d0e2b7f40.71&show_article=1

Seems that the purpose of this publicity stunt is to tell the French people that veganism is drastically unhealthy and drastically malnourishing. Which it obviously is! Look! Dead baby caused by vitamin A and B12 deficiency!

Even vegan sympathetic Mike Adams reminds vegans:

So what to do? Well, for one thing, if you are on a vegan diet, don’t forget the B-12 and the omega-3 oils — two nutrients that do tend to be very low in many who pursue vegan diets. A vegan diet requires a lot of nutritional monitoring to make sure you don’t leave out a few things.

So Mike, why do vegans require a lot of nutritional monitoring huh? Because veganism is malnourishing to majority of the population. Sure if they were organic raw vegans they may have clean diets but still malnourishing enough to kill their baby. Veganism is so dangerously malnourishing that people on SAD diets seem to do better even though SAD is inherently dirty and allergenic.

Excuse me folks, but it is RAW Paleolithic Diet, the original human diet which is bounty full of clean nutrition that requires no nutritional monitoring because it simply works and works really good. The dirty version is cooked paleo diet but it is still a whole lot better than raw vegan.

I’m speaking from personal experienced. I did the boy scout try along with my wife’s uncle and we failed miserably on raw vegan, even under the tutelage of a raw vegan guru… we gave up raw veganism rather than die of malnutrition.

And since I couldn’t make raw veganism work for me or my wife’s uncle, I as hell will not do the same stunt on my children. And since I thrive on raw paleo diet, I do the same raw paleo diet stunts on my children. Raw paleo diet cures children of all illnesses. The only reason they don’t go full time with it is because of peer pressure… social reasons (teacher, calvin’s packed lunch is bloody raw meat, he must be a vampire!). Raw paleo diet cured me of every single complaint I had, cured my first son of tuberculosis, cured my next son of hand flesh eating eczema, cured my daughter of painful tooth decay. The power is in raw meat, raw fat, raw internal organs… raw animals dude, raw animals rock! Fruits rock too for hydration.

Some people, like this French couple, did not know when to stop, when to see that enough is enough. Of course they experienced the consequences of malnutrition, the death of their daughter.

Of course, the case slapped on them is idiotic and they should eventually be let go… what more punishment do they need to get? Their precious daughter had already died. That already is the ultimate punishment.

Remember, the proof is in the eating. No dogma. Just go with that works. Raw veganism is a big fat sad lie that is killing many many people. Yo vegans, you can’t detox forever. Wake up, it’s time to build muscle, stop wasting away.

How to Remove Radioactivity from Water via Earth Filters

by

With the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster having no end in sight yet, water being contaminated in Japan, it is no surprise if our own waters are polluted with their radiation. Nuclear war survival skills has tips on how to remove the radioactivity in water.

Filtering through earth removes essentially all of the fallout particles and more of the dissolved radioactive material than does boiling-water distillation, a generally impractical purification method that does not eliminate dangerous radioactive iodines. Earth filters are also more effective in removing radioactive iodines than are ordinary ion-exchange water softeners or charcoal filters. In areas of heavy fallout, about 99% of the radioactivity in water could be removed by filtering it through ordinary earth.

Visit http://www.oism.org/nwss/s73p919.htm for the details on how to build this water filter.

On a personal note, I’d rather let nature filter the water. I don’t fancy drinking plain water. In an omnivorous raw paleo diet filled with hydrating raw fat and raw fruit, I don’t need to drink plain water.

Paleo Diet Recipe: Ox Tail Stew

by

A few days ago I was inspired by the cooked paleo diet journal of Celtic Cave Girl in cavemanforum.com about her oxtail stew. I figured I could cook that same stew. We have all the ingredients and the equipment for it. What’s good about it is it is a very fatty stew, fat, fat, fat. And it’s beef fat. Since it is a stew, it seems to taste less toxic than cooked ground beef. The usual Filipino recipe for oxtail is Kare Kare which is so not paleo diet because it relies on peanut sauce.

You see, even though I’m a raw paleo dieter, my family is not there yet with me so at the very least I should convert them to paleo diet, even a cooked paleo diet, then get further raw over the months.

FYI, I’m in charge of making money, doing the marketing personally, in charge of the daily menu… I just tell the maids what to cook. If it’s the first time a meal is to be cooked, I personally supervise it to be done. This is one of them.

Here are the steps we took to make the ox-tail stew:

  • Yesterday Saturday I bought 2 kilos of beef tail – ox tail,
  • Yesterday Saturday I bought a lot of beef bones for their raw bone marrow.
  • This Sunday morning I had all the raw bone marrow removed and put in two bowls.
  • I had the bones put in a pot over charcoals to make beef stock by 9am.
  • I watched some YouTube videos about how to make oxtail stew, they were the usual gross commercialized supermarket variety stews.  Imagine using packaged commercial chicken stock, and flour, and umpteen condiments… absolutely unhealthy… unacceptable.  I’m doing this the paleo diet way.
  • By 2:30 pm we began browning the oxtail parts
  • By 3pm the oxtail stew was stewing in the pot and we in fact consumed all the beef stock eventually.
  • Added 5 jack fruit leaves because our maid said that helps soften the oxtail
  • Added freshly ground pepper, sea salt, 1 fresh cayenne pepper, carrots, white onions, bay leaf
  • By 6:30pm the oxtail stew was ready to be served

This is the first time we had oxtail stew.  Amazing jelly like consistency of the thick ox tail skin.  Pictures of my oxtail stew below.  We have left overs so the children will have it for their morning meal and lunch packs.

Sjogren’s Syndrome Treatment Success with Deliberate Parasite Infection: Helminthic Therapy

by

Sjogren’s Syndrome, a western medically defined “auto immune disease” whose characteristics are people have problems with their moisture producing glands. This person shares his success with helminthic therapy meaning he infected himself deliberately with parasites. The theory behind this is that parasites rightfully have a place in the human flora and in some civilized societies nowadays, key helminths are absent, so people get sick. But reintroduce the helminths in their body, they get well. I will let l.c. share his story:

Hello All,

Though the majority of people using helmiths for auto-immune disorders meet with moderate
to near complete success– with a few exceptions, most of these people getting helmiths
who have success simply get on with their lives and no longer post here.

I am one of the lucky people who have had great success. This was for Sjogren’s Syndrome.

The course of my disorder had been steady, and had led to some very scary problems when
my internal organs- like my lungs- started to be involved. I was told that the next step for me
was a chemotherapy agent like methyltrexate.

This was not an appealing option, so, like many of us, I started looking at medical research
for other options. One new direction that research seemed to point to with some good
possibility of success seemed to be parasites as a treatment for auto-immune disorders.

After I was inoculated with Necator Americanus in the Fall of 2007 by Auto-Immune Therapies,
I had a near remission of my symptoms over the next year. This is unheard of in the course of
Sjogren’s to my knowledge. My disorder is now back to the level I was at one year before I was
diagnosed in 2002.

* Periodically I like to put my name out there as someone who can discuss this with people who
would like to speak to an actual person who has tried this treatment in order to hear first hand from
one of Auto-Immune Therapies clients about the process of inoculation, infection, and the company
I dealt with.

BTW- I can personally vouch for Marc Delaberra and Jasper Lawrence. They are exceptionally
conscientious, helpful, and sincere people… some of the finest people I have ever dealt with in
business. (ps. I have no financial interest of any kind with Auto-Immune Therapies).

If you wish, feel free to call me from 3pm-10 pm Saturday through Sunday, or after 8pm any other
day…

Cal ph. 503 949-1162 USA, Pacific Time Zone, Please Mention Parasites

I challenge you Sjogren’s Syndrome sufferer to do helminthic therapy as well as a raw paleo diet and lifestyle. Let’s show the world Sjogren’s Syndrome is 100% curable.

Raw Tomatoes Plus Salt Plus Pepper vs Tapeworms Makes Me Feel Bad

by

I was experimenting with every morning 2 Raw Tomatoes Plus Salt Plus Pepper vs Tapeworms for a good number of days now, been more than a week and I felt really bad. As if I was coming down with a cold, a flu, a soar throat. I stopped taking this combination today. And this morning Saturday I slept on and on the whole morning after breakfast until lunch time. It was a healing sleep.

I always knew nightshades were bad for me. This experiment highlights just how bad it really is. Maybe this helped kill my tapeworm, but any longer and it will kill me as well.

For those who haven’t been following my blog, I eat a raw paleo diet. Been so for 3 years. So I’m pretty much guarded and take into account anything I shove in my mouth and how it affects my health.

As for the tapeworms, it seems the combination of humaworm herbal dewormer, coconut milk, coconut meat, tomatoes, the coconut oil detox with sea salt flush and the ajowan seeds and the castor oil have all done their part. For 2 weeks now I have stopped seeing tapeworms in my poop. They got to a point they crawled out of my anus during any odd time.

Last few days of humaworm, and I will continue to do the coconut milk and coconut meat loading.

I know the drugs for tapeworms are cheap, but food and herbs are safer for me.

Nuclear Radiation Detox: Raw Fats, Iodine Sources: Spirulina, Chlorela, Kelp, Sea Weed

by

The PR people in Japan are trying their best to calm people down regarding the nuclear radiation pollution being emitted by their damaged nuclear power plants. THSTF this time. And their radioactive pollution will spread to neighboring countries, including mine. What to do? My initial research into Nuclear Radiation Detox is to eat a lot of: Raw Fats from animals as best, from plants for the skin, spirulina supplements, chlorela supplements, kelp… and mineral dense foods like those with organs like whole small fish and clams and oysters.

Raw animal fats: The number 1 detoxifier. According to my studies and experience, regular ingestion of raw bone marrow, raw muscle fat, raw eggs (from fowl from sea food), raw fatty fish detoxes the liver and nourishes all cells in the body.

The iodine rich foods like kelp and various sea weeds are a good source of iodine. Natural is better than artificial because the nutrition interfaces well with our natural human bodies.

Supplements like spirulina and chlorella are known chelation agents.

Mineral dense foods like clams, whole fish, internal organs will supply your body with nutrients so there are no gaps for the radiation pollutants to bind to.

This was inspired from this bit of information from radiationdetox.com which has exceeded its hosting bandwidth… unfortunately. So I will just have to quote the interesting article here:

(Nuclear) Radiation Detox
How to Detox Your Body of Depleted Uranium Residues, the Effects of Radiation, and Radioactive Contamination

It’s sad but true that there are thousands of scientific references and medical studies out there on the fact that radiation and radioactivity can harm you, yet despite millions of dollars spent by the government to study radiation, virtually nothing is available about a detoxification diet or nutritional supplements you might use if you are exposed to radioactive contamination.

Here’s some of the information we do know from the only book in the world on the topic. Keep this information in the back of your mind as it may one day help save you or someone you know.

Most people are aware taking potassium iodide (KI) or potassium iodate (KIO3) tablets will help block your thyroid gland from absorbing radioactive iodine should there ever be a dirty bomb explosion or nuclear power plant mishap such as the Three Mile Island incident. In 1999, another such accident happened in Tokaimura, Japan where several individuals died from radiation exposure in a fuel processing facility.

What people don’t recognize is that potassium iodide or iodate tablets only protect the thyroid gland and do not provide protection from any other radiation exposure, so taking them should not give you a false sense of security. It’s important to detox your body after radioactive exposure!

One question is, what do you do if KI or KIO3 tablets aren’t available during an emergency? Interestingly enough, according to research by Ken Miller, health physicist at the Hershey Medical Center, he found that an adult could get a blocking dose of stable iodine by painting 8 ml of a 2 percent tincture of Iodine on the abdomen or forearm approximately 2 hours prior to I-131 contamination. Potassium iodine tablets are best, but if they’re not available this is the next best thing.

An entirely different problem arises after you’ve been exposed to radioactive contamination because now you have to get rid of any radioactive particles you may have ingested through the air you breathed, water you drank, or food you ate. Some people suggest Epson salt, Clorox or clay baths to remove any residues on your skin and to leach out any heavy metals you may have absorbed, but the big worry is internal contamination. To gain some insights into what to do, we have to turn to the story of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki.

At the time of the atomic bombing, Tatsuichiro Akizuki, M.D. was Director of the Department of Internal Medicine at St. Francis’s Hospital in Nagasaki and he fed his staff and patients a strict diet of brown rice, miso and tamari soy soup, wakame, kombu and other seaweed, Hokkaido pumpkin, and sea salt. He also prohibited the consumption of sugar and sweets since they suppress the immune system.

By imposing this diet on his staff and patients, no one succumbed to radiation poisoning whereas the occupants of hospitals located much further away from the blast incident suffered severe radiation fatalities.

Much of this positive result has to do with the fact that the sea vegetables contain substances that bind radioactive particles and escort them out of the body. This is why seaweed sales usually skyrocket after radiation disasters, and why various seaweeds and algae are typically used to treat radiation victims.

In Chernobyl, for instance, spirulina was used to help save many children from radiation poisoning. By taking 5 grams of spirulina a day for 45 days, the Institute of Radiation Medicine in Minsk even proved that children on this protocol experienced enhanced immune systems, T-cell counts and reduced radioactivity. Israeli scientists have since treated Chernobyl children with doses of natural beta carotene from Dunaliella algae and proved that it helped normalize their blood chemistry. Chlorella algae, a known immune system builder and heavy metal detoxifier, has also shown radioprotective effects. Because they bind heavy metals, algae should therefore be consumed after exposure to any type of radioactive contamination.

In 1968 a group of Canadian researchers at McGill University of Montreal, headed by Dr. Stanley Skoryna, actually set out to devise a method to counteract the effects of nuclear fallout. The key finding from their studies was that sea vegetables contained a polysaccharide substance, called sodium alginate, which selectively bound radioactive strontium and eliminated it from the body.

Sodium alginate is found in many seaweeds, especially kelp, and since that time the Russians have been seriously researching the use of their own kelps from Vladivlostok, from which they have isolated the polysaccharide U-Fucoidan, which is another radioactive detoxifier. Because miso soup was so effective in helping prevent radiation sickness, the Japanese have also done research identifying the presence of an active ingredient called zybicolin, discovered in 1972, which acts as a binding agent to also detoxify and eliminate radioactive elements (such as strontium) and other pollutants from the body.

The kelps and algaes aren’t the only natural foods with radio-detoxifying effects. In terms of fluids to drink, black and green tea have shown “radioprotective effects” whether consumed either before or after exposure to radiation. This anti-radiation effect was observed in several Japanese studies, and studies from China also suggest that the ingredients in tea are radioactive antagonists.

In short, after any sort of radioactive exposure you want to be eating seaweeds and algaes along with almost any type of commercial heavy metal chelating formula to bind radioactive particles and help escort them out of the body. Whether you’re worried about depleted uranium, plutonium or other isotopes, this is the wise thing to do which can possibly help, and certainly won’t hurt. Many nutritional supplements have been developed for the purpose of detoxifying heavy metals, most of which contain the algaes and plant fibers and other binding substances.

Basically, an anti-radiation diet should focus on the following foods:

· Miso soup
· Spirulina, chlorella and the algaes (kelp, etc.)
· Brassica vegetables and high beta carotene vegetables
· Beans and lentils
· Potassium, calcium and mineral rich foods
· High nucleotide content foods to assist in cellular repair including spirulina, chlorella, algae, yeast, sardines, liver, anchovies and mackerel
· Cod liver oil and olive oil
· Avoid sugars and sweets and wheat
· A good multivitamin/multimineral supplement

Yet another benefit of the sea vegetables rarely discussed is their high mineral content, which is a bonus in the case of radioactive exposure. Consuming natural iodine, such as in the seaweeds, helps prevent the uptake of iodine-131 while iron inhibits the absorption of plutonium-238 and plutonium-239. Vitamin B-12 inhibits cobalt-60 uptake (used in nuclear medicine), zinc inhibits zinc-65 uptake and sulfur is preventative for sulfur-35 (a product of nuclear reactors) incorporation by the body.

Since nuclear workers are potentially exposed to radioactive sulfur, this means that workers in the atomic power industry need a higher content of sulfur in their diet. MSM supplements provide a source of dietary sulfur, but thiol supplements such as cysteine, lipoic acid and glutathione serve double-duty in this area because they help detoxify the body and attack all sorts of other health problems as well.

The immune system is usually hit hard after radiation exposure, and a number of steps can be taken to help prevent opportunistic infections after a radioactive incident. Though the full dimensions of the protective mechanism is still unknown, Siberian ginseng is one form of ginseng that exerts a definite radioprotective effect and has been demonstrated to lessen the side effects of radiation. It was widely distributed by the Soviet Union to those exposed Chernobyl radiation and is commonly used to help cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy.

Consuming Reishi mushrooms is another proven way to bolster your immune system after radiation exposure and helps reduce the damage from radiation. It’s been used to decrease radiation sickness in animals and help them recover faster after potentially deadly exposure.

Panax ginseng has prevented hemorrhaging after radiation exposure, prevents bone marrow death and stimulates blood cell formation, so it’s another supplement to add to one’s protocol. In short, yeasts, beta glucans, bee pollen and various forms of ginseng have all been shown to bolster the immune system after radiation incidents. In terms of radiation burns, aloe vera has a proven ability to treat serious radiation burns and offers other radioprotective effects, and can easily be grown in your house.

The amino acid L-Glutamine can be used to help repair the intestine in case of the gastrointestinal syndrome usually suffered due to radiation exposure, and a variety of substances can help rebuild blood cells to prevent hematopoietic syndrome. Those particular foods include beet juice, liver extract, spleen extract, and shark alkyglycerols. Most oncologists don’t know that shark liver oil, with alkyglycerols, can help platelet counts rebound in days.

Depleted uranium is currently in the journalistic spotlight because US weapons are made from this material, and after being fired leave a legacy of depleted uranium dust in the environment, which anyone can absorb. Because the kidneys are usually the first organs to show chemical damage upon uranium exposure, military manuals suggest doses or infusions of sodium bicarbonate to help alkalinize the urine if this happens. This makes the uranyl ion less kidney-toxic and promotes excretion of the nontoxic uranium carbonate complex.

In areas contaminated by depleted uranium dusts, it therefore makes sense to switch to drinking slightly alkaline water and to favor a non-acidic diet to assist in this detoxification. Any of the heavy metal detoxifiers, such as miso soup, chlorella, spirulina and seaweeds, are also commonsense warranted.

Another thing you can do is use homeopathics for radiation exposure. People commonly argue over whether homeopathics work or not, but if you assume the position that they produce no results whatsoever then you must also assume that they certainly won’t hurt you, which means the only loss from using them is a few dollars. Frankly, there are countless cases and double-blind studies where homeopathic tinctures do provoke physical healing effects in the body. Therefore they are a viable adjunct treatment option. One homeopathic, in particular, is URANIUM NITRICUM (nitrate of uranium) which homeopaths suggest should be used in cases of depleted uranium exposure or uranium poisoning. Not just soldiers or civilians exposed to battlefield dusts, but uranium miners and radiation workers may find it quite useful.

While we’ve discussed just a few of the many supplements and protocols you can use to help detox the body of the lingering results of radioactive contamination, including the residues of depleted uranium, the last thing that might be of interest is that there is a plant that is a natural geiger counter. The spiderwort plant is so sensitive to changes in radiation levels (its petals change color upon exposure) that it’s often used as a natural radiation detector (dosimeter), just as they use canaries in mines as detectors of poisonous gas. Some people like knowing that they have an ongoing monitoring system for radiation in the environment, and this is just another tip available in “How to Neutralize the Harmful Effects of Radiation or Radioactive Exposure.”

Laiya Batangas: Fishing Dorado with the Balacbacan Fishermen

by

Friday afternoon I was driving south towards Candelaria Quezon where I was scheduled to stay overnight with the great hands on healer Vander Gaditano. I get messages on my cell phone regarding the tragedy of the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear power plant problems of Japan. It’s not stopping me from my drive. Candelaria is far enough from the beach of Laiya, Batangas and besides, the location of Laiya waters is it is shielded by the entire massive Luzon island any tsunami from Japan will never reach this place.

I called my contact Edith and reserved a fishing boat. Cost is 2,000 pesos and 250 pesos per fishing rod, then I had to buy bait worth 350 pesos. Expensive because the squid we got were special sweet squid. Tasted the squid raw and it was sweet. My boatmen / fishermen were 47 year old Dionisio and his 23 year old son Melvin.

The technique in fishing dorado is to use squid or fish as bait. Around 6 inches long each. Then you cast the fishing line and the boat goes around in circles on each marked buoy. We go around several marked buoys and eventually wind up with 5 dorados and 1 batalay fish.

About 1 hour into the boat ride I got sea sick, open blue water just endlessly goes up and down. I had to slump in the boat and wait for more than 30 minutes to regain my sea legs. I did recover and went on to enjoy the morning. We left at 6am and came back 12 noon. Their expectation was after lunch go back in the water. No, half a day is alright with me.

We cooked 2 dorado’s over charcoal. Of course I had mine rare. Totally raw is not recommended with dorado as the flesh sticks real hard on the bones. Just heating it enough makes the flesh fall off the bone.


Video of Dorado Fishing in Laiya Batangas taken last year February 28, 2010


The big one that got away

The last and supposedly 7th fish was the one that bit my fishing line. I first tried reeling it in but found that the reel would not budge. Young Melvin saw my puzzled fishing amateur newbie “I don’t know what to do when this happens” and he immediately took over my rod, oh there was an adjustment switch you flip on the rod. He had a big smile on his face. This was a challenge from the regular 6 fish we already caught. This was a big one. Melvin tired and his father Dionisio took over. He too had a big smile on his face. This fish was going to big. Unlike the other fish that jumped out of the water, this one just stayed sunk. Melvin was steering the boat towards the big 4 kilo dorado and was ready to hook it. Then the fish swam out again suddenly, but this time it got away! The fishing line had snapped. Oh shucks! So close. If we had hauled that big boy in, that would have made my day.

From then on I promised to buy a 4 kilo dorado in the wet market soon just so I can taste what a 4 kilo dorado tastes like. Dorado is good when cooked in soup sinigang style. The skin softens and you can eat it fatty. If you heat it on charcoal, the skin is burned and the fat dissipates.

To fill my ice chest I bought some squid and some other fish and went home Saturday. For you foreigners, I do not practice catch and release fishing. I fish to eat.

The next time I said to Edith and Dionisio, I want to go net fishing with the fishermen. Commission a boat, same time 6am to 12noon but instead of fishing rods, we go net fishing and get several kilos of fish. I will just load up enough fish in my ice chest that fits in my car and they can sell the rest of their fish haul in the market. Initially, Melvin thought I was nuts, who would want to pay to fish with fishermen using nets? I explained that city slickers like me just want to experience what they experience and we will gladly pay for it.
