Do you know how to vastly and cheaply improve your health?

First, get and read the following book: BOOK NAME: Green For Life by Victoria Boutenko, 2005 RAW FAMILY PUBLISHING www.rawfamily.com "GREEN FOR LIFE" NOTES ON THE BOOK.... The first chapter is fun: it describes how human DNA is 99.4% similar to THAT OF CHIMPANZEEs. As well, they have A-B-O blood types like humans. Then she looks at what chimpanzees eat and our diets couldn't be more different. Chimps eat about 50% fruit matter, 40% greens and blossoms; the rest is insects or pith, bark, seeds. Humans in America on the other hand consume 50% -60% starch (rice , potato, bread, pasta) 17 % veg and fruit, 3 % greens, 30% animal protein and oils. She proceeded to reserach more about how their diet might impact humans. OK what she found out about our diets.. We need the kind of diets the chimpanzees have. Being that we 1) do not eat enough vegs/fruits and 2) we do not chew our food adequately (all animals chew food to a creamy consistency before swallowing) she discovered through Dr. Ann Wigmore, the answer lies ingreen smoothies which deliver: ( You must use A VARIETY OF GREENS as listed below). * Rich source vitamins, minerals, enzymes in the form most highly deliverable to the body. * Fiber: helps detox body! in a major way.. and this fiber is alive, not dried and processed. * Alkalizes the body: more important than you think. Optimum health in the body requires alkaline blood, which in turn causes our stomach acids to increase (this is good.. actually necessary for healthy functioning). Also: cancer thrives in an acid (anaerobic) environment, and greens make the body alkaline, quickly! 6 weeks- 8 weeks! and an alkaline body is incapable of being a host to cancer.. chemically impossible! Check out all the conditions improved by having an alkaline body. (Read THE PH MIRACLE, by Robert O. Young and Shelley Redford Young, 2003). * Better source of protein than meat proteins! This is huge because of its impact on the environment and our resources. WHY? There are 9 essential amino acids the body cannot make itself; a variety of greens (as listed above) contain all 9 of these essential amino acids. Meat proteins have all these amino acids as well, except they are already made into combinations that suit the anumal )chicken, cow..) and when we eat the meat protein our body has to break down the chains of amino acids into the individual amino acids and then re-combine them the way a human body requires them. With the plant greens the body gets the individual amino acids it needs and can synthesize them exactly as your body needs. The chapters go on to show how even the human raw foodist does not gain an alkalized body. Following chapters describe the author's experiment with Roseburg OR residents whose only change to their diet consisted of the addition these smoothies to their diet. Another chapter includes feedback from every single participant. Every single one mentions improvements of some kind, regarding all sorts of ailments. FROM THE ROSEBURG STUDY PARTICIPANTS FEEDBACK SHEETS (they took random people with typical american eating habits and simply introduced 1 qt. green smoothie/day for each participant over a period of 6 weeks): They all report being less depressed and more calm and energized. They all said they lost weight. They said their bowel movements are large. Cravings gone. They eat less junk and seem to want to eat more raw. Asthma completely gone... Deeper sleep.. Sex life improved. Everyone! reported more energy, less sadness and depression. Some headaches / detox reaction in beginning using these smoothies. This, though uncomfortable, is a good sign! More..
