Re: Post-Fast Nutrition

Thanks to Chrisb1, and all others for the thoughts here.

Chrisb1 some of the issues discussed in the cell food link are questionable. The statements about the absorption of oxygen would be strongly challenged by Buteyko.

On the general issue of the nutritional status of many fruit and veg foods available today. That status had been in decline for years. But the answers may be easier, more and better than most realise. There is a plethora of edible weeds, well known for their nutritional advantages including their nutritional statuses growing in almost all environments: why not eat them.

All should remember that the best challenge to the statement that the biggest revolution in our food culture has been the increased consumption of processed foods. The fact remains that the consumption of weeds and flowers has collapsed in the last 150 yrs. Look at the "primitive" diets anywhere, find one that didn't eat flowers and weeds. The last 150 yrs have seen the lowest consumption of these important nutritional sources in human history.

And related and touched on in posts before mine but not developed: the use of humates and the related issues of eating local ferments etc etc should also be rounded into our perspectives on what good eating is.

Reading CZ I wonder if the greatest issue is the thinking that all remedies come from wallets, the source for our magic bullet. The other weakness possibly expressed through this same behavior is that we ignore the natural systems right under our noses. These may well be and certainly were in a historical sense the best support system we had available.

Speaking personally the best health cures I have found are: water fasting, buteyko, growing and sourcing all my food locally, natural home developed/sourced ferments and the use of home made humates. And Iodine which I buy.

Where is my wallet? T2
