Re: Grey hair, thinning hair and hair health
I cannot quite agree that mineral depletion has been a longstanding planned agenda, though certainly those in charge of profiting from illness may have embraced the idea at some point in time after realizing that mineral depletion leads to more customers. For well over a century we have been over-farming and depleting the minerals in the top ten feet of soils around the world - and not only failing to return minerals to the soil, but also failing to allow the vital soil micro-organisms the time needed to convert what minerals remain into forms that plants can readily uptake in our crops.. The burn and farm peoples in third world countries are doing the same thing now and China and India are having their own dust bowls in parts of their countries.
Yes, I understand and appreciate the moral/spiritual delimna some feel of taking a life to continue a life. It can be a hard thing dealing with the fact that we are at the top of the food chain the more enlightened we become. Perhaps in an ideal world we would consume only plants, but being omnivores is how we have developed and has been the natural way ever since we fist began taking footsteps in the sands of time.
For now, I think it is a bit of a leap to make the transition completely and that the majority of us would be best served with a mostly vegan, mostly raw diet of organic foods that included some healthy meats which were not contaminated by chemicals or subject to unhealthy and inhumane feedlot type practices. I keep thinking about the American Indians and their respect for all animals. Certainly I do not believe we are masters of the earth in the sense that we have the right to kill and waste at will. Instead, we are the privileged custodians of the earth and should cherish life, even if we consume it. That includes plants in my opinion.
In the end, perhaps we will re-discover that living in harmony with nature is by far the healthiest for both the body and the spirit.
All the best,
