Not Food For Thought
Below is a science fair project presented by a girl. In it she took filtered water and divided it into two parts. The first part she heated to boiling in a pan on the stove, and the second part she heated to boiling in a microwave. Then after cooling she used the water to water two identical plants to see if there would be any difference in the growth between the normal boiled water and the water boiled in a microwave. She was thinking that the structure or energy of the water may be compromised by microwave. As it turned out, even she was amazed at the difference..’)
I have known for years that the problem with microwaved anything is not the radiation people used to worry about, It’s how it corrupts the DNA in the food so the body can not recognize it. So the body wraps it in fat cells to protect itself from the dead food or it eliminates it fast. Think of all the Mothers heating up milk in these ‘Safe’ appliances. What about the nurse in Canada that warmed up blood for a transfusion patient and accidentally killed them when the blood went in dead. But the makers say it’s safe. But proof is in the pictures of living plants dying.FORENSIC RESEARCH DOCUMENT

Ten Reasons to Throw out your Microwave Oven
From the conclusions of the Swiss, Russian and German scientific clinical studies, we can no longer ignore the microwave oven sitting in our kitchens. Based on this research, we will conclude this article with the following:1). Continually eating food processed from a microwave oven causes long term – permanent – brain damage by ‘shorting out’ electrical impulses in the brain [de-polarizing or de-magnetizing the brain tissue].
2). The human body cannot metabolize [break down] the unknown by-products created in microwaved food.
3).. Male and female hormone production is shut down and/or altered by continually eating microwaved foods.
4). The effects of microwaved food by-products are residual [long term, permanent] within the human body.
5). Minerals, vitamins, and nutrients of all microwaved food is reduced or altered so that the human body gets little or no benefit, or the human body absorbs altered compounds that cannot be broken down.
6). The minerals in vegetables are altered into cancerous free radicals when cooked in microwave ovens.
7). Microwaved foods cause stomach and intestinal cancerous growths [tumors]. This may explain the rapidly increased rate of colon cancer in America .
8). The prolonged eating of microwaved foods causes cancerous cells to increase in human blood.
9). Continual ingestion of microwaved food causes immune system deficiencies through lymph gland and blood serum alterations.
10). Eating microwaved food causes loss of memory, concentration, emotional instability, and a decrease of intelligence.
Have you tossed out your microwave oven yet? After you throw out your microwave, you can use a toaster oven as a replacement. It works well for most and is nearly as quick. The use of artificial microwave transmissions for subliminal psychological control, a.k.a. ‘brainwashing’, has also been proven. We’re attempting to obtain copies of the 1970’s Russian research documents and results written by Drs. Luria and Perov specifying their clinical experiments in this area.

Mind Medicine
Mind Medicine
by Joanna Evans
Dr Bruce Moseley, an orthopaedic specialist at Methodist Hospital in Houston, TX, was convinced of the powerful effect of the human mind medicine on healing.
He recruited 180 patients with severe knee osteoarthritis and divided them into three groups, two of which underwent true surgery to clear out degenerative tissue and debris. The third group underwent a sham operation: they were surgically prepared, put under anaesthesia and wheeled into the operating room, where incisions were made in their knees, but no procedure was carried out. Over the next two years, none of the patients knew who had received the real operations and who had received the placebo treatment, yet all three groups reported moderate improvements in pain and joint function. In fact, the placebo group reported better results than some of those who had received the genuine operation. The mental expectation of healing was enough to marshal the body’s healing mechanisms. The intention, brought about by the expectation of successful surgery, led to physical change (N Engl J Med, 2002; 347: 81–8). The role of the mind in healing—the subject of Bryan Hubbard’s cover story this month—completely baffles the medical community. Yet, it is well documented that belief in a placebo will bring about the same physiological effects as an active agent—so much so that it causes the drug industry enormous difficulty when designing trials; as so many patients report the same relief and even the same side-effects with a placebo as with the tested drug itself, a placebo is not a true control. How can belief—and, in this case, a wrongheaded belief—affect the outcome of healing? Some clues come from intriguing brain studies showing that the electrical activity within the brain, and between the brain and other parts of the body, is identical whether we are merely thinking about doing something or actually doing it. In weightlifters, for instance, the EEG patterns in the brain that are activated to produce specific motor skills become activated while the skill is only being simulated mentally. Indeed, just the thought is enough to produce the neural instructions to carry out the physical act. In the case of placebos, our bodies don’t distinguish between a chemical process and the thought of a chemical process. According to a major review, the only factor for survival appears to be a belief that the therapy will work and a willingness to follow it religiously. Patients who stick to their doctor’s orders fared equally well whether taking a drug or a sugar pill. In contrast, those who tended not to survive were those who were lax with their regimens, regardless of whether it was a placebo or an actual drug (BMJ, 2006; 333: 15–9). Such studies suggest that our beliefs—about our medicine, about the outcome of a health crisis, about our connections to our place in the world—are a more powerful healer than any diet or exercise programme; they protect us against the worst toxins and the greatest adversity. Knowing this, every doctor now has a duty to never give a negative diagnosis, and every patient has a duty to follow only the regime that he truly believes in.
The thought it generates in us—whether positive or negative—is our most potent mind medicine. May we always use it wisely.

Good Trans Fats vs. Bad Trans Fats
Artificial trans fats are one of the most prevalent poisons in our food supply; but most don’t know that healthy natural trans fats DO exist.
by Mike Geary, Certified Nutrition Specialist, Certified Personal Trainer
Author – The Truth about Six Pack AbsI’m going to talk about something today that most of you have probably never heard… that there is a distinction between good trans fats and bad trans fats. There is some evidence that the good trans fats can help you with fat loss, muscle building, and even cancer prevention, while the bad trans fats have been shown to cause heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and the general “blubbering” of your body.
I’m sure most of you have heard all of the ruckus in the news over the last few years about just how bad man-made trans fats are for your health. If you’ve been a reader of my newsletter and my Truth about Six Pack Abs e-book program, then you definitely know my opinion that these substances are some of the most evil food additives of all and are found in the vast majority of all processed foods and fast foods on the market today.
In my opinion, man-made trans fats are right up there with smoking in terms of their degree of danger to your health. After all, they are one of THE MAIN factors for the explosion of heart disease since approximately the 1950’s.
With all of the talk about trans fats in the news these days, I wanted to clarify some things, particularly regarding bad trans fats vs. good trans fats. If you’ve never heard of good trans fats before, let me explain in a bit.
The Bad Trans Fats
First, the bad trans fats I’m referring to are the man-made kind. These are represented by any artificially hydrogenated oils. The main culprits are margarine, shortening, and partially hydrogenated oils that are in most processed foods, junk foods, and deep fried foods.
These hydrogenated oils are highly processed using harsh chemical solvents like hexane (a component of gasoline), high heat, pressure, have a metal catalyst added, and are then deodorized and bleached. A small % of the solvent is allowed to remain in the finished oil. This has now become more of an industrial oil rather than a food oil, but somehow the FDA still allows the food manufacturers to put this crap in our food at huge quantities, even with the well documented health dangers.
These hydrogenated oils cause inflammation inside of your body, which signals the deposition of cholesterol as a healing agent on artery walls. Hence, hydrogenated oil = inflammation = clogged arteries. You can see why heart disease has exploded since this crap has been loaded into our food supply over the last 5 to 6 decades.
As time goes on, and science continues to unveil how deadly these oils really are, I feel that eventually they will be illegal and banned from use. The labeling laws were just the first step. In fact, certain countries around the world have already banned the use of hydrogenated oils in food manufacturing or at least set dates to phase them out for good.
However, keep in mind that as companies are starting to phase out the use of hydrogenated oils in processed foods, they are replacing them, in most instances, with highly refined polyunsaturated oils such as soybean oil, cottonseed oil, corn oil, etc, etc. These are still heavily processed oils using high heat, solvents, deodorizers, and bleaching agents. Even refined oils are known to produce inflammation in your body…a far cry from natural sources of healthy fats.
Don’t be fooled by the new onslaught of foods claiming “trans fat free”… if they use heavily refined oils (even if they’re non-hydrogenated), it’s still pure evil for your body, and very inflammatory.
Once again, for the best results, your best bet is avoiding highly processed foods altogether and choose whole, natural, minimally processed foods. Your body will thank you!
The Good Trans Fats
Ok, after having trash talked the man-made trans fats, let me clearly state that there is such a thing as healthy natural trans fats. Natural trans fats are created in the stomachs of ruminant animals such as cattle, sheep, goats, etc. and make their way into the fat stores of the animals.
Therefore, the milk fat and the fat within the meat of these animals can provide natural healthy trans fats (best in grass-fed organic versions only).
Natural trans fats in your diet have been thought to have some potential benefit to aid in both muscle building and fat loss efforts. However, keep in mind that the quantity of healthy trans fats in the meat and dairy of ruminant animals is greatly reduced by mass-production methods of farming and their grain and soy heavy diets. Meat and dairy from grass-fed, free-range animals always have much higher quantities of these beneficial fats.
One such natural trans fat that you may have heard of is called conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and has been marketed by many weight loss companies. Keep in mind that these man-made CLA pills you see in the stores may not be the best way to get CLA in your diet. They are artificially made from plant oils in a manner similar to hydrogenation, instead of the natural process that happens in ruminant animals. Once again, man-made just doesn’t compare to the benefits of natural sources.
Here’s a great site I found that I use to order all of my healthy grass-fed beef and other free range meats. The service is impeccable and they deliver right to your doorstep in a sealed cooler. It’s worth it to know that you and your family are actually eating meat that’s good for you instead of the normal grocery store junk.
Now that all of your labels should be listing grams of trans fat, keep in mind that if a quantity of trans fat is listed on a meat or dairy product, it is most likely the natural good trans fats that we’ve discussed here (*I only recommend grass-fed meat or dairy). Otherwise, if the quantity of trans fat is listed on any processed foods, it is most likely the dangerous unhealthy crap from artificially hydrogenated oils, so stay away!
One more important note about food labels and trans fat listings… keep in mind that food manufacturers are allowed to label a food “trans fat free” if 1 serving size contains less than 0.5 grams of trans fat. So you may see some products with hydrogenated oils as one of their main ingredients, but if they make the serving size small enough so that it contains less than 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving, they can label it as trans fat free… now that’s BS! just another example of our broken system!

How You Can Use Self Hypnosis To Cure Your Anxieties
Self Hypnosis Can Cure Your Anxieties
Self hypnosis is a powerful tool that you can learn to use with practise and change your life.
Has any of this ever happened to you ?
Your boss ends your Monday with a stack of papers and instructions that you must submit this report in the next 48 hours or else…– Your significant other doesn’t answer your calls when you need to get a hold of them the most
– Your mother sends you Guilt-Tripping messages that you don’t come and visit enough
– Your landlord Completely ignores you when you tell her that part of the ceiling is leaking in your apartment
– Your credit card bill is getting HUGE and is taking over in your dreams
At this point your probably starting to feel a throbbing pain in your temples like your head is about to explode.
EASY does it.
You certainly don’t want that to happen now do you?
Sit down and take a deep breath, close your eyes, relax and unravel your inner thoughts.
Sometimes, when taking control over a chaotic life, a stressful situation, a physical ailment or an emotional dilemma, it will usually start within you – your mind, and specifically, your “Subconscious”.
Communicating with your subconscious doesn’t have to be seen as being difficult.
Negotiating with your own self (Yes, I know it sounds kind of crazy, but hear me out) can be ‘achieved’ through a form of mind control called “Self Hypnosis”.
Some of you reading this article right now may of heard of this practice and know How To do it, but for those of you who don’t here’s a sample of this basic procedure in 7 easy to follow steps.
Step #1. Find a venue conducive for relaxation.
Find a quite room, with a comfortable temperature and set the lights just right (not too dim, not too bright).
Then… light a candle and incense if you desire.
Step #2. Surround yourself with sound pleasant to your ears.
Play some relaxing music. Bring in a portable fountain. Hang some chimes where the breeze blows.
WHY?
Because the sound of music is soothing.
Step #3. Find a comfortable position.
Surround yourself with the things that make you feel the most comfortable. For example, your pillows, blankets, your favorite pair if joggers, whatever you like.
A caring, healing sensation always eases stress.
Step #4. Tell yourself this.
I am light, I am comfortable, I am at ease with myself.
All my tensions, worries and anxieties are gone.
I am light, I am comfortable, I am at ease with myself.
(Repeat many times while breathing deeply and with your eyes closed.)
Step #5. Picture what you want your life to be.
Visualize every detail, every situation that you want to happen.
Imagine it So… as if it is really happening at this moment.
Step #6. Repeat step #4.
Breathe in, breathe out. Now… imagine yourself being surrounded by a bright, luminous light starting from your forehead until it fills the whole room.
Step #7. Wake Up!
Simply wake up when you’re ready and feel refreshed.
Repeat this procedure regularly as needed.
This exercise simply helps you clear your thoughts.
It may also lead you to Self-Revelations that will help you assess the situation on how you want to live your dreams.
It may or may not work, your goal may or may not be achieved – the universe has reasons humans may not fathom.
The important thing here is this: “Self Hypnosis” will help you become a better, calmer person that’s More attuned to themselves, and more willing to help others.

Frozen Crabs & the Blonde Stewardess
A lawyer boarded an airplane in New Orleans with a box of frozen crabs and asked a blond stewardess to take care of them for him.
She took the box and promised to put it in the crew’s refrigerator.
He advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for them staying frozen, mentioning in a very haughty manner that he was a lawyer, and proceeded to rant at her about what would happen if she let them thaw out.
Needless to say, she was annoyed by his behavior.
Shortly before landing in New York, she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin, “Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs, in New Orleans , please raise your hand.
Not one hand went up …. so she took them home and ate them.
Two lessons here:
1. Lawyers aren’t as smart as they think they are.
2. Blonds aren’t as dumb as most folk think.

Is This The Biggest Lie?
This is an article by Coert Coetzee, the founder of the Treoc group and is very interesting reading – Martin
“If you tell a lie long enough, loud enough and often enough, the people will believe it and people are more likely to believe a big lie than a small one.” – Adolph Hitler
Is This The Biggest Lie?
A lady was recently telling us about an endowment policy that she took out with one of the big insurers. If you look at the figures, it doesn’t appear to have been a bad transaction at first glance.
She’s paying R400 a month for a product that, according to projections, will pay out R500,000 in twenty years’ time. The monthly contributions also get increased by 10% each year, so that they’re kept in line with inflation. It looks good – and don’t forget that it’s being sold by one of the staunch old South African companies to whom just about half the country belongs. They’re also approved by that mighty consumer protector, the Financial Services Board. And bear in mind that these powerful companies have the best actuaries working for them. So there’s therefore no way that this could be a scam. Think again, my dear friends. This is the biggest organised and legalised form of a scam you can imagine.
Anyone who can do maths can see how the scam works, but I think our people are like lambs being led to the slaughter. They don’t do the maths, they ask no questions, and one day in twenty years’ time they’ll just take the money and say thank-you.
I want to show you today how to do these simple little sums, but before we get started we first need to reflect on an important assumption here, namely inflation. The government would very much like us to believe that inflation is lower than their goal of 6%, but any housewife will tell you that consumer inflation is higher than 10% per year. Just work out what a trolley of groceries cost you 5 years ago, in comparison to now. For this exercise let’s use an inflation rate of 10%, like the insurance company uses for its annual increase in the contributions.
Let’s do the maths! All that you do now is take a piece of paper and draw four columns for yourself. Column one is the number of years. Column two is the inflation percentage. Column three is the annual inflated contribution. Column four is the expected deflated value of the endowment policy at that stage. In column three, Contribution, we take the R400 per month and multiply it by 12 to determine the first year’s contribution. That’s R4,800, which is then increased by 10% each year. In column four, Value, we start with the promised, projected payout of R500,000 and decrease it by 10% per year. The reason for this is that money’s buying power decreases each year, thanks to inflation. This is how the table looks now:
Years Inflation Contribution Value 1 10% 4 800 500 000 2 10% 5 280 450 000 3 10% 5 808 405 000 4 10% 6 389 364 500 5 10% 7 028 328 050 6 10% 7 730 295 245 7 10% 8 503 265 721 8 10% 9 354 239 148 9 10% 10 289 215 234 10 10% 11 318 193 710 11 10% 12 450 174 339 12 10% 13 695 156 905 13 10% 15 064 141 215 14 10% 16 571 127 093 15 10% 18 228 114 384 16 10% 20 051 102 946 17 10% 22 056 92 651 18 10% 24 261 83 386 19 10% 26 688 75 047 20 10% 29 356 67 543 Total Contribution 274 920 If you now add up all the contributions in column 3 over the 20-year period, it comes to an amount of R274,920. The value you’ve bought with that is that amount of R67,543 in year 20 in column four and NOT R500,000 like they told you. With inflation taken into account you’ve therefore paid R274,920 for R67,543. Would you have made this ridiculous “investment” if you had known what you were buying?
Do you know how ordinary people do these sums, though? (And this is why the crooks have been getting away with this scam for generations already.) Ordinary people think they paid R274, 920 and got R500,000 out. This is the illusion that the crooks create, and it’s also what it says in the policy documentation. You do get out an amount of R500,000, but then you’re not taking the effect of inflation into account. That is how they legally prey on the unsophisticated and trusting public. With their clever actuaries’ “complex” calculations they bullshit the police, the FSB, the brokerage industry and the public.
Ordinary people who receive the R500,000 after twenty years think, “What a fantastic investment!” Then they think that the insurance company is wonderful and they’re sorry that they didn’t take out more of these endowment policies when they were young. That’s also the message that people communicate to their children, which is why the crooks get away with it and can carry out the same scam with your children.
What do they do with your money every month? They invest it in property. That’s why they have such enormous property portfolios – because they pay only R67,543 for a property value of R274,920. Show me a bigger scam!

A Choc A Day Keeps Stress Away
A small bar of dark chocolate a day can keep stress at bay, according to a small study by international researchers.
German and Swiss researchers have found that eating about 40g of dark chocolate a day for two weeks reduced the levels of stress hormones in highly stressed people.
Dark chocolate, which is rich in a variety of bioactive compounds, also partially corrected other imbalances in the body related to stress, making it a natural way to ease stress.
“The study provides strong evidence that a daily consumption of 40g during a period of two weeks is sufficient to modify the metabolism of healthy human volunteers,” wrote the researchers led by Sunil Kochhar, from the Nestle Research Centre in Lausanne, Switzerland.
The study, published online in ASC’s Journal of Proteome Research, comes amid growing scientific evidence that antioxidants and other beneficial substances in dark chocolate may reduce risk factors for heart disease and other illnesses.
The trial was performed on 30 people who were classified as having low or high anxiety. Researchers measured levels of stress hormones in blood and urine samples collected several times a day from the participants in the trial to measure metabolic changes.
The participants snacked on 20g of dark chocolate mid-morning and again as an afternoon snack.
The researchers said people with high anxiety traits had a distinct metabolic profile, and changes that occurred from eating dark chocolate showed up clearly after two weeks with reduced stress hormones and other stress-related biochemical markers.
But they said the study was small and further research was necessary – while nutrition experts were quick to add that chocolate is high in fat and too much can lead to weight issues.

Longevity Gene May Boost Memory
Paris – A gene linked to increased life span through calorie restriction also appeared to play a critical role in boosting memory and brain power, according to a study published on Sunday. A protein encoded by the SIRT1 gene has been shown in laboratory experiments to help slow the ageing process in rodents. Called Sirtuin1 in humans, that same enzyme seems to enhance memory and nerve-cell development in the brain as well, according to the new findings, published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature. The work could provide leads for drugs to combat Alzheimer’s and other debilitating neurological diseases, the researchers said. A team led by Li-Huei Tsai, director of the neurobiology programme at MIT in Boston, had earlier demonstrated that Sirtuin1 boosts neuron survival in mice genetically modified to mimic certain degenerative brain disorders. “We have now found that SIRT1 activity also promotes memory and plasticity,” Tsai said, referring to the ability of healthy brain cells to interconnect. “This result demonstrates a multi-faceted role of SIRT1 in the brain, further highlighting its potential as a target for the treatment of conditions with impaired cognition.” Memory tests Tsai examined behaviour and brain development in mice deficient in the SIRT1 gene in experiments. Compared to normal mice, they reacted poorly to electrical stimulation in the hippocampus, which is critical to long-term memory and spatial navigation. In Alzheimer’s, the hippocampus is one of the first regions in the brain to be damaged. The gene-altered lab mice also had reduced density of neuron development, a key measure of brain activity. They were less able to discriminate old from new objects in memory tests. “SIRT1 deficient mice are impaired in all three memory paradigms compared to control mice,” Tsai explained. The study also unveiled a previously unknown mechanism: by keeping certain gene regulators called mircoRNAs in check, the SIRT1 gene allows the memory-enhancing proteins to be expressed. The results are preliminary, Tsai cautioned, saying it was still too early to design clinical trials with humans.
