Glycemic Index of 1200 Foods
(and how to live to 100)
by George Eby
The following Glycemic Index file is
taken from the University of Sydney
Glycemic Index web site, the most extensive, authoritative source available
for world-wide foods. In this current page, one could previously go to the food to be investigated, click on the
link which would take you to comprehensive information including the original reference
article from the Universtiy of Sydney page. However, the University has recently improved their page and my 1200 links no longer work. After finding the food you want to learn more about on my page, go to their site and search for specific foods including newly indexed foods that may not be in the following index.
Another glycemic index file from the July
2002 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (which concentrates
on American foods) is here. Both
are complete listings and each includes a number of ethnic and international
foods.
The idea of turning away from huge amounts
of carbohydrates (sugar, corn syrup, starchy foods such as refined flour
delicacies) and towards foods with more nutrition is an excellent idea for
increasing health and longevity. Barring accidents and major diseases, I don’t
believe it is too hard to live to be 100, if you follow my advise. As you look through the list of foods below
searching for their glycemic index, please consider the following concept. The
glycemic index (GI) is a system for measuring how fast a carbohydrate triggers
a rise in blood sugar. The higher the number, the greater the blood sugar
response. A GI of 70 or more is high and consumption of large amounts of these foods is associated with low
nutritional intake, morbidity and early death. A GI is 56 to 69 is considered medium and these foods usually are nutritious. A GI of 55
or less is low, and these foods are often highly nutritious and associated with longevity.
Some food such as rice and carrots have a
large range of GI values. This variation is caused by inherent botanical
differences as well as preparation methods. Carrots found in U.S. grocery
stores are most likely low on the GI scale. There are no GI values
given for meat, poultry, fish, avocadoes, cheese or eggs because these foods
contain little carbohydrate, and are not likely to induce a significant rise in
blood glucose. These are the only foods I eat. These foods are clearly healthy choices associated with
extreme longevity.
The only time a high glycemic index food is
useful is during athletic competition, heavy manual labor or work, or to treat
someone in a diabetic coma (too much insulin). Otherwise, even athletes should
shoot for lower GI foods for the everyday diet, especially off-season.
A high glycemic load diet is clearly
associated with an increased risk of type II diabetes, coronary heart disease
and early death. Eating low glycemic foods is always healthy, and is associated
with longevity because it prevents insulin resistance, syndrome X, the
glycation of proteins (strongly associated with accelerated aging), obesity, and
hypoglycemia, perhaps due to the increased nutritional value of these foods. By
avoiding high glycemic load foods, aging is greatly slowed and chronic disease
(cardiac, mental and cancer) averted. The popular diabetes diets also follow a
low glycemic approach. If you have diabetes work with your doctor if you plan
to begin eating low glycemic index food because your insulin dose will need to
be lowered. Insulin may be thought of as "the master oxidant", and
excesses of which are associated with early death. An ideal blood sugar level
is 84 mg/dl, the point where the body no longer needs to release insulin. Just
remember that obesity
will cause early death, and being lean will not.
The choice is yours to be a short-lived obese person or a healthy, slender, well nourished, happy long-lived person. There is no doubt that obesity is the greatest health disaster in recorded history. This health disaster is occurring now in slow motion, and it is being managed by the best health care professionals on Earth. Yet, their management is insufficient because their goal is to care for the "disease" and not the person. Next, we have the obese children, doomed to a short, sick, useless, miserable life.
Their parents should be charged with child abuse and their children must be taken away from them and placed with real adults that have common sense in order to save their lives.
We do this now for parents who starve their children, but I argue that overfeeding them is equally evil or more evil. What should we call the practice of feeding our children a slow-action poison (excessive food) known to cause premature death? Is is murder? Murder by food? Or is it just child abuse? What ever it is it is wrong and it is harmful. Put a few hundred of these criminals in jail as an example, and watch what happens. Mr. District Attorney, do your job! Protect the children! Yes, we must discriminate and call a pig a pig, if for no other reason than to save their children. We go to enormous lengths to save the African children from starvation, but fail our own children in a vastly more lethal activity. Why not just give them each day a carton of cigarettes, a gallon of liquor, and all the sex partners they want rather than all the food they want? It might not be a bad idea, relative to giving them all the junk food they want. Now do you get my point?
Gluttony kills! Gluttony on fast food kills faster! Gluttony on candy and cake kills fastest!
Now that I have thoroughly irritated you and you want to kill me, I will tell you what is actually causing glutony and short statue among our fat children. In a single word, it is monosodium glutamate (MSG). Yes, the food seasoning that is common in all processed foods, albeit by a variety of names. Here is a list of MSG aliases and you will find one or more of these words on nearly every container of wheat based processed food product (the stuff that fills up the centers of grocery stores). We are being overpowered by MSG and it very strongly affects our appetites and it is now directly implicated in causing growing children to be short and stay short for life. I have mentioned the notion that excessive monosodium glutamate stimulates appetite and is a principal cause of obesity and short stature (got short kids mom?). There is now clinical evidence that this is correct, and governmental policies need to be changed to prohibit MSG and its aliases from being added into human foods.
Here is the abstract from Hermanussen et al. in an article entitled: Obesity, voracity, and short stature: the impact of glutamate on the regulation of appetite: "World-wide obesity has risen to alarming levels. We present experimental support for a new and very challenging hypothesis linking obesity, voracity, and growth hormone (GH) deficiency, to the consumption of elevated amounts of the amino-acid glutamate (GLU). Supraphysiological doses of GLU are toxic for neuronal cells. METHODS: Human data were obtained from 807,592 German conscripts born between 1974 and 1978, and from 1,432,368 women of the German birth statistics (deutsche Perinatalerhebung) 1995-1997. The effects of orally administered monosodium glutamate (MSG) were investigated in 30 pregnant Wistar rats and their offspring. Pregnant animals either received no extra MSG, or 2.5 g MSG, or 5 g MSG per day, up to the end of the weaning period. In all, 2.5 g, respectively 5 g, MSG accounted for some 10%, respectively 20%, of dry weight of the average daily food ration. After weaning, MSG feeding was continued in the offspring. FINDINGS: Morbid obesity associates with short stature. Average stature of conscripts progressively declines when body mass index increases above 38 kg/m2. Also morbidly obese young women are shorter than average though to a lesser extent than conscripts. Oral administration of MSG to pregnant rats affects birth weight of the offspring. Maternal feeding with 5 g MSG per day results in severe birth weight reduction (P<0.01). Weight increments remain subnormal when MSG feeding to the mothers is maintained during weaning (P < 0.01). GH serum levels are affected in animals that received MSG during prenatal life via maternal feeding. Animals that are kept on high MSG diet (5 g MSG per day) continue to show serum GH levels that are as low or even lower than those of MSG injected animals (P < 0.05), both at day 30 and at day 90 of life. Animals that were kept on medium MSG diet (2.5 g MSG per day) showed low serum GH levels at day 30 of life (P < 0.01), but seemed to partially recover before day 90. Almost identical results were observed in IGF-1 serum levels. Oral MSG resulted in dose dependent voracity. The animals fed 5 g MSG per day increased water uptake by threefold (P < 0.01), and food uptake by almost two-fold (P < 0.01). The influence of MSG is in general more marked in males than in females. Interpretation: GLU is a widely used nutritional substance that potentially exhibits significant neuronal toxicity. Voracity, and impaired GH secretion are the two major characteristics of parenterally administered GLU-induced neuronal damage. GLU maintains its toxicity in animals even when administered orally. Males appear to be more sensitive than females. The present study for the first time demonstrates, that a widely used nutritional monosubstance--the flavoring agent MSG--at concentrations that only slightly surpass those found in everyday human food, exhibits significant potential for damaging the hypothalamic regulation of appetite, and thereby determines the propensity of world-wide obesity. We suggest to reconsider the recommended daily allowances of amino acids and nutritional protein, and to abstain from the popular protein-rich diets, and particularly from adding the flavoring agents MSG."
If you disagree about the hazards of obesity, consider what others say about obesity being a health problem here.
If you want to see what Harvard University School of Public Health says about it click here. See the facts in this link showing how obesity nearly guarantees that you will develop diabetes. Remember that "diabetes" used to be called "sugar diabetes", until the sugar lobby got ticked. Note the other relative risk factors too. Did you know that obese children are likely to not live past 50 years of age? Why sentence your children to an early death? Just because they want more cake and candy? Ridiculous! Dump the junk food and the MSG will go away, and so will many health problems.
More than 60% of overweight young people have at least one additional risk factor for heart disease, such as high cholesterol or high blood pressure. In addition, children who are overweight are at greater risk for bone and joint problems, sleep apnea, and social and psychological problems such as stigmatization and poor self-esteem. Overweight young people are more likely than children of normal weight to become overweight or obese adults, and therefore more at risk for associated adult health problems, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, several types of cancer, and osteoarthritis. Healthy lifestyle habits, including healthy eating and physical activity, can lower the risk of becoming overweight and developing related diseases. See more about what the Center for Disease Control says about childhood obesity here.
I will argue that the "unobtainable pleasure missing from their lives" is nothing more than an expression of magnesium deficiency and glutamate toxicity, both of these are brain chemicals required for neuronal regulation. Magnesium suppresses and glutamate activates. Many habits including cocaine abuse, over indulgence in foods to obesity, tobacco use and alcoholism all have been reported in the medical literature to be diminished or eliminated with 500 mg of magnesium supplementation per day. That is why magnesium is taken out of our food. Don't you see? Why leave something in a food that will satisfy appetite? It would be bad for business, and that is why they add MSG to foods, to get you to have a big appetite and buy more of their product. See how you are being used by food corporations as a garbage dump for their cheap junk food? Search the medical literature here.
IMPORTANT
NOTICES:
- Switching to a low carbohydrate diet may be problematic in the
beginning and can bring on low blood sugar. Low blood sugar from dietary
restriction more often than not occurs in the morning before breakfast. It
can usually be prevented by a small bowl of ice cream near bedtime and
never missing breakfast.
- Eliminating potatoes from the diet due to their extremely high
glycemic index rating is highly desirable. However, potatoes are the
primary source of potassium in the American and Western diet. If you
reduce your potassium intake, you greatly increase your risk of serious
illness or death, because the heart is vitally dependent upon having
enough potassium to maintain its beat. Simply switch to a potassium chloride based table salt and avoid sodium chloride. However, be certain to increase your consumption of iodine since there is no iodine in Morton's Salt Substitute (potassium chloride) and there usually is not any iodine in other brands of potassium chloride. Iodine is vital to your health, and it is being ignored in the United States. Hypothyroidism is the result of low iodine and early death occurs. Google iodine with magnesium, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, fungus, candida.
In
your quest for improved health through appropriate, life-long caloric
restriction, your life may be extended by 30 years or more, and visiting 100 in
near perfect health should not be too difficult. What causes such enormous
increase in life extension with such a simple change? Not all of the details
are known, but a 90% decrease in lethal heart attacks appears to be one
benefit. In the Standard American Diet (SAD), which consists of too much carbohydrate (flour products,
starchy foods, and sugar and corn syrup enhanced foods and drinks), appetite is
stimulated by the absence of minerals such as magnesium. Consequently, avoiding
carbohydrates terminates appetite, and resulting weight loss can be dramatic
and rapid. As shown in this figure from Dr. Mildred Seelig's new book (The
Magnesium Factor), the SAD has too much calcium and sodium and too little
magnesium and potassium for optimum health and longevity. Doctors do not notice
these problems using normal blood tests, because these are intracellular
minerals that can only be assessed inside of cells. Red blood cell tests and
specialized intracellular tests are
available, but are not routinely used.
One reason life is extended by these diets is because as more magnesium is consumed, the lower C-reactive protein becomes. C-reactive protein is a marker of chronic inflammation which is a primary indicator of diabetes and heart attack risk. C-reactive protein management is a major goal of pharmacutical companies. This is one of the most carefully guarded secrets of health, and could only have been reported by researchers having a vested interest in improving peoples' health, and not corporate income. This is exactly what happened and this critically important work was first published in 2002 by the team of F. Guerrero-Romero and M. Rodriguez-Moran working at the Medical Research Unit in Clinical Epidemiology, General Hospital of the Mexican Social Security Institute, Durango, Mexico. Do you really believe that Pfizer would support and publish such research? Not me! The abstract for the Guerrero-Romero and M. Rodriguez-Moran article reads:"OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between serum magnesium levels and C-reactive protein (CRP) in non-diabetic, non-hypertensive obese subjects. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SUBJECTS: A total of 371 subjects, 101 men and 270 women. Of them 138 lean (37.2%), 133 (35.9%) overweight, and 100 (26.9%) were obese, matched by age. MEASUREMENTS: Fasting and 2 h serum glucose following a 75 g oral glucose load. Fasting serum total cholesterol, HDL- and LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin; and magnesium levels; urinary protein excretion; body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and blood pressure. RESULTS: The presence of CRP was documented in four (2.9%) lean, 13 (9.8%) overweight, and 20 (20.0%) obese subjects, and decreased magnesium levels (equal or less than 1.8 mg/dl), in 2 (1.45%) lean, 7 (5.2%) overweight, and 19 (19%) obese subjects. The lowest serum magnesium levels and the highest CRP concentrations were documented in the obese subjects. Twenty-three (82.1%) of the subjects with low serum magnesium (five overweight and 18 obese) showed CRP concentration equal or more than 10 mg/l. There was a graded significant decrease between CRP concentration and serum magnesium levels (r = -0.39, P = 0.002). The odds ratio (CI95%) between magnesium and CRP adjusted by age, sex, BMI and glucose tolerance status for the subjects within the low quartile of magnesium distribution was 2.11 (1.23-3.84). CONCLUSION: The results of this study show that low serum magnesium levels are independently related to elevated CRP concentration, in non-diabetic, non-hypertensive obese subjects."
Consequently, the line reading "There was a graded significant decrease between CRP concentration and serum magnesium levels (r = -0.39, P = 0.002)", shows that there is an inverse relationship between magnesium blood levels and CRP, which translates to, "if you want a heart attack, don't take magnesium".
These two cultural errors (low magnesium and
low potassium) appear to be the foundation stones of much of modern medical
practice and pharmaceutical drug trade. If we did not make these mistakes, the
incidence of lethal and non-lethal heart attacks, stroke and many other chronic
diseases should be reduced by 60 to 90%, and the necessity for much of modern
medicine and pharmaceutical drugs eliminated. These two errors appear to cause the
United States
to be the most highly drugged people on
Earth. The figure above and to the right concerning national cardiac illness
from Dr. Mildred S. Seelig's new book (The
Magnesium Factor) shows the national heart attack rates correlated with the
dietary ratio of calcium and magnesium. In the United States, we believe with all
our heart that the best ratio of calcium is about 3 to 1. That means about 1200
mg of calcium to 400 mg of magnesium daily. Some of the above listed nations
know we are idiots in our belief, but that is for us to figure out for
ourselves. We are paying the price for our believe in calcium with the highest
lethal heart attack rate in the world.
You say Finland looks higher? Yes, but this
figure was computed from 1977 medial research data, and the Finns, acting as a
nation, decided to terminate their salty, high calcium diet and go to a diet
high in potassium and magnesium. Now
their incidence of heart attack is lower than Japan, which is strong evidence that
the ratio of calcium to magnesium is largely responsible for our heart problems.
Read more here. Why do we
insist upon eating foods that are low in magnesium? This makes no sense at all unless you are a
conspiracy theoriest and believe that the medical-pharmaceutical complex is
more interested in making money than keeping us well. Look.
It is simple, the actin fibers of the heart are stimulated by calcium,
and then relaxed by magnesium. An electrical charge produced by magnesium then
pushes the calcium to the opposite side of the cell. Thus, calcium helps to
produce the heartbeat, and magnesium regulates it. How can your heart relax
without enough magnesium? It can't! You die young, just a little while after
your digestive system goes South upon modest aging! Read Dr.
Seelig's book! Also, read this
scientist's brief article
about preventing arteriosclerosis, heart attacks, Infant death syndrome (SIDS),
hypertension, bone fractures, epilepsy, diabetes, alcoholism, kidney stones,
leg cramps, nervousness with a proper ratio of calcium to magnesium.
What can we do about this horrible
situation? First, condition yourself to think outside the box. Consider the
consequences of this page (and its resources and many, many others) being
correct and your classically trained physician, nutritionist, pharmacist,
dietitian and popular press resources being wrong. Consider the above figure
and read Dr. Seelig's book. She is a medical doctor and a highly trained
scientist, and is one of the foremost authorities on magnesium biochemistry on
Earth.
The first and easiest step toward health and
longevity is to throw away your regular table salt and never use it again.
Replace table salt with Morton's
Lite Salt for those people needing a balanced sodium and potassium intake
due to hard labor, physical exercise or sweating and no other significant
intake of sodium chloride. Alternatively, Morton's
Salt Substitute (nearly pure potassium chloride) can be used by people not
doing physical labor, exercise and sweating, or those receiving significant
amounts of sodium chloride from other sources. Use these "salts"
exactly like you currently use regular table salt. If your heart rate is too
high, potassium chloride will lower it in a dose-dependent fashion, and such
also suggests a necessity for less sodium. Try to avoid salty foods away from
home, and obviously, avoid salty fast food and restaurant food.
Yes,
too much potassium chloride will lower your heart rate to zero, consequently
never abuse it.
If your physician thinks this nutrition stuff
is bogus, find a University trained naturopathic physician in your city using this link. They are vastly better trained
and informed on nutritional treatments of disease and disease prevention than
most general practice medical doctors. They should be considered as our primary
care physicians. Alternatively, you can study, and adapt the very healthy Paleolithic diet, which was the original
human food, before mankind messed with it. Or you can study the similar Dr. Atkins diet. At
least you should learn why our modern diet really sucks
and why it appears to cause cancer.
Consider this natural food pyramid to be your general
guide to vastly improved health. It is similar to the Paleolithic diet. Notice
that the entire bottom rung of the USDA food
pyramid (bread, cereal, rice and pasta group) is missing. Remember that the
USDA primary purpose is to promote American agriculture (including animal
health), not human health. Human health in the United States is the responsibility
of the Food and Drug Administration, which tries to keep humans nontoxic from
bad foods and drugs, which competes against the Social Security Administration,
which has an unintentional, but vested interest in seeing that we all die
before we take much out of Social Security.
Do you think that the "new" and "improved" USDA food pyramid suggests more consumption of high magnesium foods like nuts? NO! They did not do much to increase magnesium consumption at all. Apparently they still want us to die young. On your own, you must seek out and eat high magnesium-low calcium
foods such as: cocoa powder, wheat bran, wheat germ, buck wheat, rye, avocado,
Brazil nuts, cashews, filberts, pecans, walnuts, peanut butter, fruit and honey
bars, and sesame bars. Much more information on high magnesium-low calcium
foods is at this very large, slow to load (135 page) report. You will notice that these high magnesium-low
calcium foods are also considered to be fattening, thus they tend to be avoided
causing enormous health problems, but great profits for physicians, hospitals and
morticians! Eating them is best due to their broadly beneficial nutrient
profiles, but supplementing with magnesium (and perhaps a few other) dietary
supplements will work too, if high calcium foods such as cheese are restricted.
Remember that most of the non-Western world has never seen a calcium
supplement, and adults outside the United States rarely drink milk,
and they do very well without them. Also, remember that your cells must have fat
(butter, lard, coconut oil and other wonders) or you die. Just avoid the
commercial trans-fats.
Most people will do well with any of the
organic magnesium compounds currently available such as magnesium taurate
(excellent for older people or hyper or depressed people), magnesium glycinate,
lactate, chloride, sulfate, citrate, gluconate, malate and so forth. However,
magnesium glutamate and magnesium aspartate (or any glutamates and aspartates by other
aliases) can cause depression because they are excitatory neurotoxins and
should be avoided. Also generally contraindicated are magnesium oxide and
magnesium hydroxide, which are not biologically useful except in high doses
which are given to treat constipation (a symptom of calcium toxicity), which
can cause diarrhea in overdose.
Magnesium supplemental dosage? As high as
you can tolerate without it causing diarrhea. Use it to prevent constipation.
Take it with meals and bedtime. A bedtime dose will help you sleep like a baby.
A reasonable dose would be about 100 mg of magnesium with each meal and at
bedtime. The United States RDA for magnesium is 400 mg per day. In Canada, those
easy going folks have a 600 mg RDA for magnesium and have a reduced need for
pharmaceutical drugs as a consequence. The Canadians use less than 2% of the
world's pharmaceutical drug supply, while the sickly Americans use over 55
percent. Considering that most people in the United States do not get the RDA
of magnesium, this supplemental dose would be appropriate, and will greatly
reduce the need for pharmaceutical drugs of many types, particularly cardiac,
chronic pain and psychiatric. Magnesium is also antidepressant, anti-anxiety
and anti-stress, and greatly prevents and aids these conditions. If your mental
health is a concern, then you will need to read this large article on preventing
and treating depression and many other mental and physical disorders with
magnesium taurate. If you are aging at the "normal" rate or faster,
did you know that aging is greatly accelerated by too little magnesium and too
much calcium? See this
link and this
link for the lowdown on what really causes aging. It is a matter of
cellular (particularly mitochondrial) calcification. Free your cells of toxic
calcium and live longer while feeling younger. Worried about high cholesterol? Magnesium keeps it down without
drugs. Lipid lowering drugs can be replaced by magnesium? Heaven forbid! Look
at the loss of revenue by pharmaceutical drug pushers if that little tid-bit
gets out!
WOW! Jane E. Brody, the health writer for the New York times did a really good, concise article about magnesium deficiency. Read the original article here.
Your bones will fall apart without huge doses of
calcium? Not really, that is just the dairy industry and food supplements
salesmanship, not science. Although calcium is found in very large amounts in
bone, we want that calcium to remain in the bone, not to become free and float
around in our blood causing inflammation, tissue damage, chronic pain and
death. Magnesium
is required to maintain bone integrity and to keep excessive calcium out of
soft tissues (heart muscles, arteries, brain etc.) where it causes most of the
premature death and morbidity in the United States and the West. When
the body does not get enough magnesium--cytokines, certain inflammatory
proteins known to affect bone health--are released into the blood stream. The
body also secretes less parathyroid hormone, which is vital in regulating
calcium in the blood and formation of vitamin D in the kidneys (two more
important factors in bone health). People who drink a lot of alcohol or take
diuretics and those with diabetes are especially at risk for magnesium
depletion. Acute deficiencies can also cause cramps, seizures and serious heart
problems. Read more about the real cause of low bone mass and heart attacks here. First, cast away your
mental block against new, contrarian information and learn to live 30 to 40 years
longer than Social Security wants you to live.
Also, Vitamin K, the nutrient found in chlorophyll is vitally necessary to prevent calcium from attaching to the insides of our arterial walls, constituting the process of atherosclerosis. Without enough Vitamin K, calcium will not properly deposit in bone, thus osteoporosis develops. Without enough Vitamin K, proper blood clotting (in response to a wound) does not properly occur. Do you think you need to eat more dark green vegetables? Do you remember your doctor telling you to eat more dark green vegetables? The color of chlorophyll (which contains Vitamin K) is green. Does this give you a clue to how to prevent early cardiac death? Eat your vegetables? DUH! Read more about it at this Life Extension Foundation page.
If you really want to screw up Social
Security, supplement your diet with several tablespoons daily of coconut oil, garlic and especially Kefir.
Why? They are wonderfully anti-fungal and greatly preserve your gut's
ability to absorb magnesium from your diet, thus greatly extending and improving life. However, Kefir is high in calcium and one should be careful using it. See this link for more information
on these anti-fungals. Another vital nutrient in aging is the conditional
essential amino acid taurine. It is vital in babies and, recently, appears
essential in aging. It is found in mother's milk and in meat. As we age, our
ability to absorb it from our food and/or to make it in our liver declines, and
that decline appears to be an important cause of certain eye (macular
degeneration), heart and mental illnesses. That is why magnesium taurate,
available at most health food stores, is so wonderful. See this link for more information
on taurine.
If you decide to live to be 100, then you
will want to retain your mental facilities as well as look and feel good. Such
appears much more likely with magnesium supplementation or a high magnesium
diet because magnesium has been shown to displace aluminum in some biological
systems. Aluminum (III) is believed to be involved in Alzheimer's Disease.
Magnesium is low in Alzheimer's
and supplements of it should help prevent accumulation of aluminum in the
brain, although there is some debate as to whether or not large supplements of
magnesium could cure Alzheimer's Disease. In fact, Dr. Jean Durlach, another
world-class magnesium researcher writes: "Magnesium depletion,
particularly in the hippocampus, appears to represent an important pathogenic
factor in Alzheimer's disease. It is associated with high aluminum
incorporation into brain neurons. This type of magnesium deficit cannot respond
to mere Mg supplementation, but requires correction of the dysregulation
inducing this Mg depletion." The moral here? Never let your magnesium get
low, and avoid aluminum like the plague! Do not use aluminum cook ware or take
aluminum (or calcium) antacids or aluminum in any drug for any reason. The benefit is not
worth the risk. If you need a laxative, use magnesium hydroxide,
never aluminum or calcium products. Also, solution chemists say that tea is a source of aluminum,
which is biologically available only if the tea is acidified with lemon or lime
juice. Always do as the Brits do, drink your tea in a civilized manner with
milk or cream, thus preventing the aluminum from becoming biologically
available.
How did we get into this mess? I attribute
these long-standing, cultural error to be the result of our mindless desire for
white bread, white pasta, white rice, white sugar and white pastries. What that actually
means is that we have decided "for no particularly good reason", as
Forrest Gump would say, that the minerals and other nutrients found in the germ
and bran found in the non-white part of wheat are not necessary for human
health and that we should feed them to pigs instead. This is a cultural mistake
that originated in the late nineteenth century and has been the plague of
mankind (but a benefit to pigs) ever since.
Now that we know what our main health
problem is, we can fix it. Right? NO! AT LEAST NOT FOR LONG! Our access
to these vital nutrients will be restricted in the near future to protect
international pharmaceutical company income via the World Health organization's
CODEX treaty with the United States
and nearly all Western and industrial economies. There is nothing we can do about
it. The Congress was set up by the multi-national drug pushers, and we will all
pay the price for the Congress's inattention to details upon invocation of
CODEX. They will be in position to create and market nutrient-drugs at 10 to 50
times their cost of today, while the grain producers get to continue starving
us of our minerals. What a deal.
Some final notes: Once you get the hang of the above low calcium, low
sodium, and high magnesium, high potassium diet, most low
carbohydrate food/drink choices will work and be healthy while you loose
weight and restore your youthful appearance. However, if you really want to do the diet thing right,
you must avoid all foods prepared by corporations. This means do not eat any "food" that has a
long shelf life, that specifically means all "foods" sold in a box, bottle, can, wrapper or other container.
Rather, think eat only "living foods". If the food is alive and will grow if you stick it in the ground
and give it water, it is a real human food and is healthy. We can't stick our fresh
meat, fish, fowl, and eggs in the ground and have them grow, but they are the exception. They are all
fine and must be part of our diets. Vegetarians are not the healthiest people. Obviously, exercise, at least
walking, lifting and carrying things is vital to keeping healthy, and it makes
life more interesting. Exceptions to
eating low glycemic index foods include avoiding those foods to which you are
allergic. As a final note, never drink soft drinks, milk or alcoholic beverages. Never use tobacco! Unless you are very, very stupid, then tobacco is fine. Avoid use of all drugs, both illegal and legal. The side effects from some legal drugs (particularly psychiatric and geriatric) are vastly worse than the side effects of many illegal drugs.
Do you say that your weight is "genetic" and that it can't be helped? Bull shit! There is only one cause of obestity, and that is calories intake exceeds calories used. Period. There are no excuses for being a pig.
