At Some point in our lives, Some of us will will have a serious health warning such as dizziness or a mild heart attack showing that our circulatory plumbing isn't functioning as in the younger days. Eventually we are going to realize that what  we eat, drink, and breathe is going to directly affect how much longer we are going to live. What no more 15% butter fat, ice cream and butter and cheese for breakfast, lunch and dinner ? Well if I can't have those then I'd rather be dead, but then again !   If we are fortunate we may not have much permanent damage, but enough to scare us into doing some things differently.   If we quickly change the way we eat, drink, and breathe we may be allowed to straighten out our system and continue to stick around a long time. We are allowed quite a physical body, and  if we simply change its input it can repair itself instead of needing a entire new body replacement.

In 1863, the United States Congress created the National Academy of Sciences to advise the government in scientific and technical matters.  Here are their latest health guidelines   << Guidelines  Sept 5, 2002  >>                  << Recent Reports >>

Some comments on   << THE DISCIPLINE OF FASTING >>   by Bishop Kallistos (Timothy Ware)

Selecting what to buy   <<< Negative Calorie Foods >>>   <<< Calorie & Fat Tables >>>   << understanding nutritional facts label >>    << DECODING FOOD LABELS >>    << Nutrition info >>

Daily Regimen Discipline   A minimum of one oatmeal-kasha (Groats) breakfast meal, two apples, two bananas, two tomatoes, Apricots, two Twinlab "Dualtabs" Vitamins and Minerals and one gallon of spring water per day and a daily Herbal dosage is a good way to start. Exercise, by physical work is my favorite, but exercise alone is a daily minimum . Being a discipline wimp, I ask << The Holy Trinity >> for help with my food and drink many times, to stay on track !

Conclusion : One of the many things that happen, is that that after reducing your salt and sugar intake for several  months your taste buds and smelling ability (olfactory receptors)  increases so much that bland, low caloric, low salt and sugar foods become very strong delicious tasting foods. Allowing a new taste sensation with full filing enjoyment, with out our old meat, gravy and potato forever worldly  salivation. Yes I , was stupid, ignorant  and used to proclaim " No Rabbit or Squirrel food for me".  Remember That One Big dose of Salt and or Sugar will re-kill your Taste buds and smelling ability (olfactory receptors) all over again for Several days or longer.   Sadly " Salt " is the cheapest preservative around.

Never forget that billions of Profit making Companies are forever trying to kill us, via their advertising, with their cheap high;  saturated fat, caloric, salt, sugar, preservatives, growth hormones, antibiotic laden, processed foods. Along with hiding the poor taste of and lengthening the expiration date of their heart killing concoctions with the cheapest preservative of ALL " Salt " so you may never experience the real enjoying taste or filling ability of unprocessed foods.        I don't even want salt used on the winter highways. Yes, I also threw the TV set out, "No,  I'm not available to Cheeseburger, french fries, milkshakes, etc. adds anymore" Or having my daily list of interests today being programmed by some powerful, metropolitan  TV station or network manager". Now I can be the BOSS and create my own list of what I want to learn about today, using search engines on the WWW, like   http://www.google.com/  as I'm television set free !

The beginnings of a vegetarians conscience;    

     When a little kid, less than 10 years old, by myself one day, I set out to practice becoming a great hunter with my Bow and Arrows,  I  killed my first animal, a big beautiful innocent frog. After my successful shot, Crying, with tears flowing like buckets,  I watched him wither and die painfully on my arrow, looking at me with his big pretty decaying eyes, He seemed to be asking me " why I had chosen him to die, without any intent of eating him or any valid purpose what so ever ", I learned my first important lesson about killing without need or reason.  The bottom Line was " I couldn't return him to life again, to save my conscience ".                  Many times later, savoring  a Bacon, Cheeseburger in my mouth, The thought would occur to me that I have actually; slaughtered, butchered, killed, or chopped the head off the critter myself with out any conscious conscience. Going to the supermarket and grabbing the neatly wrapped package is sure easy but I am actually contracting the Butcher to do my killing for me. For now as I try to grow up, Giving Thanks to the Lord for all we are given, and trying to become a more responsible, loving  old fart, I will only cry a little as I chop the poor fishes head off, as I grab the neatly wrapped package of fish in the supermarket.
