"I
live in a northern climate. Maybe I'm an anomaly.
Just for the sake of benefit of other views who happen on this thread. Another
thing to consider that ties in with optimal health along with exposing skin to
sunlight is sungazing I highly recommend people do this. Read up on it to do it
properly.
One more thing is to walk barefoot on ground as much as possible to ground. This
actually helps charge cells with earth electricity. (that's the short
explanation).
Anyway nice chatting with you guys.
I hope things go well for Mr. Null."
We were designed to live in Africa and we were designed to live without clothing. In the Northern climes we don't get enough exposure to proper light, let alone just the sun. The only way you can get enough sunlight up north - and Florida too for that matter, is to leave your clothes at home!!!! (Or get active in nudist groups, which I've done at times but even then in the winter we had to have our activities indoors.) Otherwise to get one's sunshine you can either do as the heart healthy and virtually cancer free Inuit do - eat almost all meat and fat and very few veggies, and then only in the summer. It is known that the Inuit Diet is the healthiest natural diet known to modern man. Blubber and fish are high in omega 3 and fish oil is also high in vitamin D - and none of it has minerals from the earth.
I agree with an earlier post you made that said that each one has to find what works for them. Here on Cure Zone there is a very mistaken notion that one must consume lots fruits and vegetables to maintain health - and it's a total lie, but if it works for ya, have at it.
A know that walking barefoot has many benefits including a form of reflexology. But you do not have to go barefoot to run your earth energy. Your earth energy begins in the arches of your feet - your foot chakras, and run up your legs. Just open them up and draw the earth energy in and you will not only feel the "electricity" (its actually the energy of the planet) you will activate your grounding which keeps you as spirit attached to the planet so that you can do what you want to do - instead of what others want you to do. You can run your earth energies (both feet and legs) and be grounded while at 40,000 feet - I know, I've done it. In fact, I keep that energy going at all times even while asleep. You can also maintain a golden sun over your head all the time which will bring cosmic energy down through your channels and energy system - without having to look at the sun. Try it sometime, it is very refreshing.

Patricia Cochran, an Inupiat from Northwestern Alaska, is talking about the native foods of her childhood: “We pretty much had a subsistence way of life. Our food supply was right outside our front door. We did our hunting and foraging on the Seward Peninsula and along the Bering Sea.
Cochran’s family also received shipments of whale meat from kin living farther north, near Barrow. Beluga was one she liked; raw muktuk, which is whale skin with its underlying blubber, she definitely did not. “To me it has a chew-on-a-tire consistency,” she says, “but to many people it’s a mainstay.” In the short subarctic summers, the family searched for roots and greens and, best of all from a child’s point of view, wild blueberries, crowberries, or salmonberries, which her aunts would mix with whipped fat to make a special treat called akutuq—in colloquial English, Eskimo ice cream.........

Taking a Closer Look at the Inuit Paradox and Cardiovascular Disease
(NaturalNews) Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is rare in Inuit people who
continue to eat their 'traditional' diet. But how can eating a diet
predominantly consisting of seal meat, fat and blubber and almost completely
void of greens, fruits and fiber be 'preventative' of the very disease which
plagues the entire western world and for which medical orthodoxy blames on diets
high in saturated fats and cholesterol? Also, by adopting medicine's low-fat,
low-cholesterol diet and drug regimes, CVD continues to increase with no cures
in site. Herein lies the paradox... if high fat and high cholesterol diets cause
CVD, then what is 'protecting' the traditional Inuit, which has thrived on a
diet rich in both?..... (more at the site)
"We were designed to live in the environment we populated by eating
local, properly grown and raised, seasonal foods.
And running around naked as the seasons permit.
Simple as that..."
The Out of Africa theory is currently the prevailing view among research scientists. That has been substantially supported by the recent field of mitochondrial DNA studies. (You and I and everyone else on the planet have African ancestors.) That view is held by the authors of two books that I have - "The Vitamin D Cure" by James Dowd, MD and "The Power of Vitamin D" by Sarfaz Azidi MD and both point out the subsequent difficulties that everyone in the northern climes have creating vitamin D from sunshine. Azidi has a practice in Los Angeles and is also an associate professor at UCLA and he says the vast majority of people he tests (he tests all his patients) are vitamin D deficient. They both point out that sun provides very little vitamin D production for most people, and dark skinned people living in the Northern Hemisphere in particular have an even higher incidence of vitamin D deficiency because of their built in sun blockers. Both books say that we in the Northern Hemisphere have significant vitamin D deficiencies and have the diseases and conditions associated with that shortage. They both recommend significant supplementation with vitamin D3.
We did not evolve on local flora and fauna. I'll stick to my guns. The healthiest natural human diet found in real time on the planet is - the Inuit Diet. Their cardiovascular and cancer rates are far lower than any other population and their eating and medical statistics have been documented - before they and their offspring turned to the typical Western diets. To prove that it is the diet that is beneficial a couple of researches ate the Inuit way for three years in their home country in Europe while under medical monitoring - during the 1920s, and were found to be healthy living that life style.
What I did learn during my nudist experiences is that - there is no such thing as a perfect body. In fact if I were running things there wouldn't be a "dress down" Friday, there would be a no clothing Friday where you couldn't be at your job or anywhere in public with a stitch of clothing on. If we could do that it would blow the Madison Avenue/Hollywood air-brushed pictures and associated propaganda about bodies clearly out of the water. Some folks think that nudity is immoral. They've got it backwards.
Carbohydrates kill! So does clothing. lol
>>"The
Out of Africa theory"<<
"point is... it is a *theory*.
IMO it is incorrect for a variety of reasons I will not get into here...
however, you can believe what you will.
We are however, ALL connected, and more closely related, one to another, than by
DNA alone.

As it applies to nutrition, it's the best that anyone can come up with. That we evolved in various geographic locations as some have believed, is pretty much out of vogue - all due to mitochondrial DNA analysis which has blown holes in archaeologists theories. It's a case where the archaeologists didn't want to meet the geneticists, but they did and they have had to back down. Through that type of research they have also determined that "we" are not evolved from Neanderthals, something that was also believed by some scientists. We're from a different tree. A significant theory is that we began to evolve from primates when we began eating fat. We are all fat heads - 60% of our brains are fat. We need fat in order to survive. Am still holding on to the fact that meat and fat are healthier than veggies - of any kind. (Vegetarians brains shrink at a much faster rate - 6 times - than meat eaters. http://www.asylum.com/2008/09/15/a-vegertarian-diet-shrinks-the-brain/) The Inuit Diet is being suppressed by both doctors and nutritionists because it doesn't follow their low-fat nonsense which continues to produce heart disease and cancer.
If you're taking a "biblical" perspective, I myself see no conflict between evolution and Judeo-Christianity. Chapter 1 of Genesis has a creation of the planet and mankind prior to the Chapter 2 Adam and Eve version. In fact, there could easily be a creation prior to Chapter 1 because it tells the man and woman created in the image of god(s) to go out and replenish the earth - in the KJV.
You and I and everyone on the planet is an eternal spirit - separate from our bodies, and yes we are all connected from the brand new AIDS baby in Africa to Bill Gates, to the International Bankers - that's what we are here to learn. I'm a very slow learner, by the way.
"Infinite potential. ;-)"
You're still stuck on body concepts. Your body is in control. It doesn't want to accept the fact that it is mortal, but it is. Spirit is separate from body (it is not your mind). We've been through this before and you still haven't discovered your chakras and the rest of your spiritual energy system.
Time and space is an illusion - and so bodies.
