 When a seed germinates, it creates a storehouse of vitamins and enzymes that it will need in order to grow and thrive as a live, healthy plant. So eating sprouted grains or seeds is always much better for you than just grinding up the dry seeds and eating those.
Next we have the sprouted organic Quinoa, and again, we have the substantial benefit of these seeds being sprouted. But we also have all the remarkable qualities of Quinoa itself. Quinoa is something that I call a "supergrain." It is one of the few grains that offers a complete protein all by itself. |

 I've also written a larger book, How to Beat the Flu which goes into more detail and lists the top antiviral foods, herbs, products, and vitamins / minerals. These is the book to get if you want to know EXACTLY what to buy to prepare for the bird flu virus. (And by the way, I don't sell any antiviral products, and I earn no money on the antiviral products I recommend.)
In addition, all the articles and commentary I've written on the bird flu are indexed on www.BirdFluReport.org. There, you'll find articles and news headlines that keep up with the latest news on this potential pandemic. |
| In my own research, I've identified the 8 most powerful antiviral foods, the top 5 antiviral vitamins and minerals, the top 12 antiviral herbs, and the top 10 antiviral products. Plus, I've just completed an interview with a renowned herbalist who is introducing a new antiviral tincture that contains the most potent combination of viral defense medicine I've ever tasted. We'll be printing that interview (and covering the product) here in the weeks ahead.
So why isn't the conventional medical community telling people about these natural antiviral solutions? |

 You're getting all the protein, all the fiber, all the other vitamins and minerals that you would with whole grain quinoa.
Mike: So in comparison to, say, instant oats, the instant oats have been more refined than a whole oat, but in this case, you have near-instant quinoa with the whole grain properties of quinoa.
Mueller: Yes. Quinoa is very small; it's actually a seed. When it's flaked, you don't remove the endosperm, the germ or the hull, which is where all the nutrition is, so it maintains all of its fiber and protein. |

 C and E (120 and 30 mg, respectively), 6-mg p-carotene, 100-pg selenium, and 20-mg zinc on the health of -13,000 men (45 to 60 years) and women (35 to 60 years) [57-60]. In men only, antioxidant supplementation reduced the risk of developing all types of cancers by 31%. This effect was most pronounced in men with low baseline levels of P-carotene who had the greatest increased risk of developing cancer. |

 You have to have the proper vitamins and minerals to make your brain work right. You have to have the proper lipids, again, to make your brain work right, for brain function. You have to balance your pH because your brain won't function if you're too alkaline or too acid. Then, you live the lifestyle. We put all those together, and that's live foods and fasting; fasting clears the brain. There was research done in Russia with schizophrenics, incurable schizophrenics, and they water fasted them. |
| It becomes coagulated and you lose 78 percent of the vitamins and minerals. If you go live, you can eat half as much and still get the same amount. That's a 50 percent reduction in your input, so you're now achieving undereating, without at all feeling like you're undereating because we need that much live food. It's still a lot of live food.
Mike: I definitely noticed that here and experienced it myself. You get full on about half the amount of food.
Cousens: That's right, and that's the beauty of it, so now we have the easy reversal of aging, because what has research showed us? |

 Meanwhile, drug companies ignore the dangers of their own drugs and, instead, try to get people to believe that herbs or vitamins are dangerous.
5. The manufacturers of those cars with no safety systems would grow tired of being sued by customers who were injured in their cars, and they would lobby Congress to pass "legal reform" that would immunize all car companies against class action lawsuits. Explanation: drug companies are currently trying to get Congress to pass laws that would make it illegal for consumers to sue for damages. |

 They provide a rich assortment of vitamins and minerals to the human body, which have all sorts of beneficial effects, like boosting the immune system defenses against invaders or enhancing mental clarity and concentration. So I'm seeing all sorts of anticancer foods, and I'm also seeing a great collection of low-glycemic foods, which are by far the best selection of foods for anyone who is hypoglycemic, diabetic or obese.
Low-glycemic foods are really the answer for people struggling with the disease I call "diabesity," which is diabetes and obesity combined. |

 As a cardiologist, I'll go and bring natural medicine sometimes to the nursing homes, and when someone's bedridden or in a wheelchair, giving them shots of these vitamins is really hard. They are likely to get sores and other complications from the injection. We're seeing really nice effects from the greens.
Mike: Can you talk in more detail about what kind of things you've seen?
Dr. Weiss: Number one: More energy. They feel like they've gotten that B vitamin shot. The second thing is better bowel movements and better bowel function. |

 They contain beta carotine, they are high in vitamins and minerals, and they're loaded with phytonutrients that actually prevent chronic disease.
I can say that independently, although the company that makes this product probably couldn't make that kind of claim, but the facts are out about this, and we know nutrition really works to prevent disease, and we know that Chinese wolfberries, or the NingXia wolfberries, contain phenomenal quantities of phytonuytrients. |

 People have to understand that there are good carbohydrates out there, and we need them, because they contain our antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. We need our fruits and our vegetables. They aren't the bad culprits -- it's the processed carbs. Not all fat is bad. We're learning that there is good fat. Taking omega-3 fats, mono-saturated fats and vegetable fats in their healthy state will actually lower LDL cholesterol. They lower total cholesterol and raise your good HDL. For proteins, it's the same thing. There is good protein out there, and there is bad protein. |

 Six hours after greens are cut, they have lost at least 50 percent of the vitamins and minerals that they had in them at one time.
Mike: Greens? Can you be more specific?
Kevala: Greens – lettuces, kale, mustard greens, dandelion greens, spinach – any and all of the above. I know dandelions sound a little weird; they did for me, too. They're still a little bitter, but lovely reader, have heart. With a nice macadamia nut sauce, you can make anything go down. |
| Science did not contain, in itself, a mechanism to define vitamins, and it was only out of a lack of something that we realized there was a need and then looked for an answer. I mean, the understanding of what phytonutrients are, of what phytochemicals are and into which category antioxidants are categorized is a whole new waking science about their benefits.
There's a new frontier of "cosmeceuticals" and other forms of life-extending and vanity drugs and medicines that are gaining more and more popularity, but again, they're brand new in this 21st century, and you know what? |

 It will make your body more acidic and deplete it of certain nutrients -- like vitamins, minerals and other nutrients -- that are necessary for enzymatic reactions. However, if you make good decisions at the grocery store and choose, for example, to purchase healthy oils -- like macadamia nut oil, olive oil, flax seed oil or even unprocessed coconut oil -- then your chemistry is going to be much healthier. Your blood chemistry profile will be positive rather than negative. It will indicate health rather than disease. |

| Strand: Well, first of all, the American Medical Association came out two years ago stating that multiple vitamins should be taken by everybody, which is a major change for them. The problem that you run into is that everybody looks at vitamin E, or calcium, or selenium, or something else as a drug, and that’s how we do our research. So everybody looks at it as a drug, and that’s the way the doctors look at it.
But what you really find out, is that vitamin E is really not a drug. It is just a nutrient that we should be getting from our food. |

 Take some herbs, vitamins and immune-boosting nutritional supplements. Get into natural health, and you won't have to experience these diseases in the first place.
You want a cure for cancer? You don't need a billion-dollar laboratory, packed wall to wall with biochemistry experts. The cure for cancer is already hard-coded into your DNA. Your body knows how to cure cancer, and with proper nutritional support, it will remember how to do so.
Now, excuse me, because I'm about to go running outside, under the desert sun, with no sunscreen. |

 And knowing that you obviously have to get the vitamins and minerals and nutrition that you get in vegetables, I got turned onto this product and haven't stopped drinking it since.
Mike: So what are the top four or five ingredients in this product?
Wright: The most prominent would be, let's see, let's run down the actual list. There's the barley, first and foremost, then the spirulina, the chlorella cracked cell and the spinach powder.
Mike: Excellent.
Wright: We've also got a page on the website where you can see how we're compared against other green products. |
| If you line us up against all the other products that are out there, you'll see that we have more concentrations of al the vitamins and minerals and antioxidants and things that you'll need. Things such as vitamin C, vitamin E, ginkgo biloba and aloe vera, just to name a few.
Mike: You even have aloe in it, huh?
Wright: Yes.
Mike: Excellent.
Wright: So you can see that we stack up much better against all the other greens. Like I said, we're made from organic barley, so we're less reactive.
Mike: Outstanding. For the listeners here, I want to add my own personal opinion on this. |
| Spirulina is an excellent source of trace vitamins, vitamin B12, and it has a little GLA oil in it too. It's ocean dried blue-green algae, and it's an outstanding health product. Also you've got aloe vera in here, which has benefits for cardiovascular health. That's my opinion, not their claim.
Wright: I've found the same thing, what I was alluding to earlier was using it for the more body building fitness aspect. What a lot of people don't know about is balancing your body's pH. When you're on a heavy protein diet, things like stress and processed foods will drive you into acidic pH. |

 The proven protection strategy is to consume fairly large doses of vitamins C and E before dietary exposure to sodium nitrite. This nutritional protection strategy inhibits the conversion of sodium nitrite to cancer-causing nitrosamines. Personally, I would never consume any processed meat products, but if you choose to do so, you can reduce your risk of cancer from sodium nitrite by consuming these antioxidants before your meal.
Consuming chlorella before or during meals with meat will also theoretically protect you from various environmental pollutants. |

Relentless assaults
What really amazes me about Trudeau's Natural Cures book is just how utterly ridiculous and outrageous the criticism has been towards this book. In one section of the book, Trudeau explains how sunscreen actually causes cancer -- a fact that's absolutely true! (click here to read my own articles on sunscreen) -- and yet critics charge him with "fraud" for daring to say such a thing. |
| It will be a glorious day, indeed, when people can walk this earth with true freedom: freedom to choose the healing method they desire for themselves and their children, freedom to learn about herbs, vitamins or prayer, and freedom to access all the relevant information they need in order to make their own private health decisions.
It is the vision of that day that keeps me writing. |

| These are the vitamins that most Americans are deficient in. Vegetarians especially tend to miss out on getting enough vitamin B-12 because that particular vitamin is not commonly available from the plant kingdom. So by eating spirulina, you can avoid any nutritional deficiencies in the B-vitamin area.
Spirulina also provides some outstanding macrominerals, such as calcium and magnesium, and at the same time provides important trace minerals. |

| When my peers come up to me and ask, "Ray, why do you recommend vitamins to your patient?" I will look at them and say, "Well, have you ever recommended exercise to your patients?" They reply, "Well, of course I do." I ask, "Why do you do that?" They respond, "I think that my patients who exercise have a health benefit over those who don’t." I ask, "Well, what do you base that on?" They answer, "I base that on the medical literature." I tell them, "You are treating a disease, then." They say, "No." I could say the same thing about the healthy diet -- eating your fruits and vegetables. |

 While cooking makes the food softer and easier to digest, in the process of heating, most essential vitamins and enzymes in the food get destroyed. Blending is a lot less harmful than cooking because it saves all the vital nutrients in the food.
There are numerous conditions that are associated with low stomach acidity. |
