Health Benefits of Sprouts
by Steve Meyerowitz
Sprouts have long been famous as ”health food” but recent research shows that in addition to being a superb source of nutrients, they also have important curative ability. Sprouts like alfalfa, radish, broccoli, clover and soybean contain concentrated amounts of phytochemicals (plant compounds) that can protect us against disease.
Studies on canavanine, an amino acid analog in alfalfa, has demonstrated benefit for pancreatic, colon and leukemia cancers. Plant estrogens are also abundant in sprouts. The ... read more Minerals: Body-Mind 19 y
"Plants excrete fulvic acid to bind the soil minerals and absorb them as a complex into the plant root. It's this acid that begins the process of turning inorganic rocks into organic minerals, delicately weaved into living tissue.
If you need a mineral supplement short-term, look for one with fulvic acid to help with its absorption. Fulvic acid will also chelate heavy metals out of your body."

TV ads tell us calcium supplements are the cat’s whiskers. Hopefully you know it’s a lie. Your experience is that balanced bones, balanced bodies, come only from balanced foods!
Did you know:
-- no group of enzymes will lift a finger without their mineral buddies;
-- we need minerals in balance and in proportion to each other;
-- when we swallow too much of a mineral, or eat a food that robs us of minerals, we end up with both an excess and a deficiency of th ... read more Nutrition and Entropy 19 y

Nutrition and the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics (Entropy)
by Gary Cahn
Nutrition is embarrassingly simple; how true. It is very simple. We here at LSL have one criterion to determine if a food is allowed in the natural order of things; could B.T. Man have eaten it?
Man Before Technology, man before he learned to control fire. If pre-technology man could have used his intelligence and ingenuity to exploit a food from his environment then it is allowed and provided by God or nature or the force or the creator or whatever, for his use.
This includes frui ... read more Value Of Sprouts 19 y

Sprouts: Year-Round Vitamins
Sprouts are one of the most complete and nutritional of all foods tested. Sprouts are real ’Life Vitamins, Minerals, Proteins, and Enzymes. Their nutritional value was discovered by the Chinese thousands of years ago. Recently, in the USA, numerous scientific studies suggest the importance of sprouts in a healthy diet.
As an example, a sprouted Mung Bean has a carbohydrate content of a melon, vitamin A of a lemon, thiamin of an avocado, riboflavin of a dry apple, niacin of ... read more Juice Fasting 19 y
"Hippocrates "the Father of Medicine" prescribed Fasting along with Plato and Socrates. The ancient prophets and saints, including Moses, Jesus ,Buddha, Mohammed and the Great Yogi's of India (just to name a few) all Fasted for the attainment of higher knowledge and Wisdom. While modern man is not quite ready to jump into a 40-day water fast, most of us can safely use scientific Juice Fasting."

Coming into ”Right Relationship” with your Food thru Fasting
In today’s America, 65% of the population is either overweight (10 to 30 lbs. over a healthy weight) or obese (30 or more pounds overweight). In fact, America is the sickest and fatest nation in the industrialized world. America leads the World in the ”Diseases of affluence” ie. Heart disease, Cancer, Diabetes, and of course Obesity. We can not truly be healthy and be overweight, as disease and obesity go hand in hand. Overeating is a national epidemic used to su ... read more Queen (of raw) Victoria 19 y
"Scientists think that there is no difference between raw and roasted food. Victoria told us a very interesting story about a man in Russia who went on a fast. He went on a fast because he had a heart problem. When he finished his fast, he discovered that his heart was stronger. He decided to eat thirteen eggs and sure enough died. The newspapers reported that he had died because of going on a fast, and as a result many people stopped fasting. "

A Day With The Boutenko’s
by Sachi Botner
Yesterday was an eventful day at the River Canyon Retreat Center. Victoria Boutenko, a renowned teacher in the field of nutrition, taught a class entitled “12 steps to raw food.” She emphasized that the principal of learning has to do with making your own discoveries. She asked in a challenging way, “are you alive?” Many people said, of course, I am alive. I am breathing. I can feel, touch, taste, smell and see. She then asked, “so what is life?” Many thought they had already answered that question and passed th ... read more Wisdom of RAW FOOD 19 y
"I was thrilled to realize that human society truly had the viable option to move away from planetary destruction and “back to the Garden” or, really, forward toward an enlightened, compassionate, Earth-regenerative Garden Culture where health, happiness, and the beautiful gifts of Nature are nurtured, propagated, revered, and treasured. While many world religions seem pre-occupied with “the hereafter,” it is good to imagine and better to bring forth “Heaven on Earth” here and now, don’t you agree?"

"My mission is to heal myself and help others acheive the same! There are many reasons people embark on a raw vegan lifestyle. My reason was to get off of the anti-depressants and mood stabilizers I had been on for the past 20 years. Thanks to a living foods lifestyle complete with exercise, and emotional work I have been free from medication with my doctors blessing for several months now! I believe that other people can enjoy freedom from needing to rely on psychotropic medication to function in life."

What People Eat on Raw Food Diets

When I used to eat only raw foods, people would constantly ask me what I ate. It was really weird! As if people could not imagine surviving on raw foods. But really, it is not that complex. It is quite simple really. I was raised eating TV dinners at home, and crap at fast food restaurants, like other American kids. It was not until I joined a cult called ”The Source Family,” that I was introduced to raw foods as a new way of eating and thinking.

Source Family’s Rainbow Salad
It sounds bizarre, but it is truly delicious. And it is filling in a way many raw foods are not. This salad, in premise, uses all the colors of the rainbow. It was said in the Source that you could eat this salad once in the morning and once in the evening, for three weeks, as some kind of purifying ”Rainbow Diet” that would also keep you healthy. Again, I am no nutritionist, who knows if that is true. I have lived off it a few days and felt great. To make the Rainbow Salad, you put the follow ... read more Raw Diet Health 19 y

Diet Health
From Just Eat An Apple
The term ”vegetarian” does not mean ”vegetable eater” but it stems from the Latin ”vegetus”, which means ”whole, sound, fresh, and lively.” or ”to enliven”. The emphasis is on live or living foods. Most vegetarians believe that plant foods are life giving, alive and brings health. The word ”diet” comes from the Greek work dieta, which means ”way of life.” A diet needs to be a lifestyle in order to be effective. And this lifestyle needs to come from the heart to be spiritual, real and true.

As many of you know, I have been a member of Team Curezone for quite some time. Before I was a member and while part of the team, I have done extensive research on health and healing and thus have connected many dots and carefully compared many diets and healing modalities.

The more I study nutrition, the more I am convinced that we need to eat raw uncooked unprocessed food. In 1970, Americans spent about $6 billion on fast food. In 2000, they spent more than $110 billion.
In 1968, McDonald’s had one thousand restaurants. Today McDonald’s has about 30,000 restaurants and opens about 2,000 new ones each year. I recommend the book ”Fast Food Nation” by Eric Schlosser for a better understanding of what has happened to the American diet in the last few decades.

"Realizing he had at last found the real treasure of the Amazon, “Amazon John” as he is now called, began importing herbs from the jungle and offering them to people in the states in the form of a variety of healing formulas."
By Dawn Fazende with Peter Mount Shasta
(Courtesey of Mt. Shasta Magazine)
John Easterling, a treasure hunter from the United States, wandered into a Shipibo Indian village in the Amazon Rainforest sweating and chilled with jungle fever. The Indians gave him a healing tea and by morning his fever had broken and he was feeling better. He continued drinking the tea for ten days and discovered, to his surprise, that he felt in better health than he had been in for years.
