Jonny Bowden, M.A., C.N.S. See book keywords and concepts | There were more cases of osteoporosis, rickets, and vitamin and mineral deficiency diseases, in large measure because of cereal-based diets (whole grains and legumes contain "antinutrients," pyridoxine glucosides and phytates, that respectively block absorption of B vitamins in the intestines and chemically bind iron, zinc, copper, and calcium and block their absorption). And the skulls of those living on modern foods revealed teeth filled with cavities and jaws that were misshapen and too small for the teeth (Dr. | Such a diet provides an abundance ... of vitamins, trace elements, and essential amino acids—an abundance of all those subtle, yet essential, nutrients which are often lacking in diets based largely on the fat-forming carbohydrates.
A little context: ever since 1829, when William Wadd, Surgeon-Extraordinary to the Prince Regent, proclaimed that the cause of obesity was "an over-indulgence at the table" (i.e., eating too darn much!), the conventional wisdom was that fat people are fat because they eat too much food. Period. | Finally, there are "success strategies" for maintaining lifelong results: maintain a support system, continue exercising, maintain your daily action plan journal, weigh yourself every morning, eat three meals a day, do one protein day a week (to maintain a sense of awareness and control over your eating and to help curb the appetite), drink 80 ounces of calorie-free liquid daily, take vitamins, and do mental training exercises.
The Lindora Program as a Lifestyle:
Who It Works for. | Energizing for many people, B vitamins are necessary for metabolizing carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, and your need for them increases significantly when you are under stress. A lot of people just plain feel better on them. Certain members of the B vitamin family, like B5, B6, choline, and inositol, have special importance to people on weight loss programs. Choline is important in the transport and metabolism of fats, while inositol is important for the uptake of fatty acids by the cells. Both have been shown to alleviate, prevent, or improve fatty liver. | The expensive urine comment, which is perpetuated by doctors who don't really understand nutrition and vitamins, implies that just because something eventually winds up in the urine, it didn't accomplish anything in the body. Why does a drug addict take drugs or an athlete take steroids? Drugs, both recreational and prescription, are detected in the urine, right? Does the fact that they're detectable in the urine mean that they didn't work? If that were the case, there's an awful lot of people wasting an awful lot of money on drugs and medications! | Grains also contain compounds called phytates and pyridoxine glucosides that block absorption of B vitamins, iron, zinc copper, and calcium and lead to possible mineral deficiencies that can slow metabolism. (For a full discussion of grains, see "The Problem with Grains" in "The Paleo Diet" on page 126.) In addition, both gluten and certain protein fractions of gluten are a big problem for many people. It used to be thought that celiac disease—a sensitivity to gluten—was rare. We now know that it probably affects one in thirty-three people. That's a lot. | Leslie Taylor, ND See book keywords and concepts | The synergy of so many amino acids, vitamins, and minerals in their natural states may increase the assimilation, uptake, and utilization of them in the body. Consumers however, shouldn't expect "miracle cures" with maca—it's rather like taking a multi-vitamin supplement. Keep in mind that it is, in fact, a root vegetable and a main staple in the Andean indigenous diet (as beans, potatoes, and rice are elsewhere). Taking a few 500 mg capsules or tablets likely will not be of much benefit—or live up to wild marketing claims bandied about in the natural product market today. |
Hemp TodayEd Rosenthal See book keywords and concepts | The vitamin results were disappointing until you see that hemp's vitamins compare favorably with other grains. vitamins are mostly provided by fresh vegetables. You would have to eat over a pound of hemp seeds to meet your RDA in many vitamins. The heat from the sterilization process may affect the vitamin content. This will be the subject of further research. The fresh green leaves of the hemp plant could not be tested for nutrition. They are used in the Indian beverage called Bhang, a frothy concoction of hemp leaves, spices, milk and honey or sugar. | Joseph E. Mario See book keywords and concepts | Miso Made from soybeans, barley, or rice with salt, Aspergillus oryzae fermentation and aging process yielding a high-quality Protein seasoning, with natural Carbohydrates, Minerals, low Essential Fatty Acids, vitamins, including B-12, and beneficial digestant Enzymes. Disease-resistant alkalizing with Miso may prevent the common cold by ridding harmful microorganisms, creating a healthy digestive tract, aids nutrient absorption, helping to cleanse the body of toxins like nicotine, radiation, air pollution, and cholesterol deposits; giving strength, vitality, and longevity. | Russell L. Blaylock, M.D. See book keywords and concepts | The conversion of homocysteine for these reactions requires three vitamins: pyridoxine (B6), folate, and vitamin B12. Even minor deficiencies can result in dangerous elevations in homocysteine.
We have known for some time that supplementing diets with folate can significantly reduce the incidence of neural tube birth defects, as well as other birth defects. What is less well-appreciated is that homocysteine and its breakdown products are also excitotoxins, similar to monosodium glutamate. | I would suggest 100 ug of selenium a day, double RDA levels of the B vitamins, 25 mg alpha-lipoic acid a day, 400 IU natural form vitamin E (mixed tocopherols), and 400 mg of magnesium a day.
Effects of Mercury on the Immune System
The internal damage caused by mercury exposure is not limited to the nervous system. The immune system can also suffer severe injury.64 Like the nervous system, the immune system is highly complex and involves many elements, including cellular components, cytokines, special hormones, and antibodies. | As these antioxidant-network enzymes increase in activity and concentration, so, too, must the other components of the antioxidant network such as the vitamins, minerals, thiols, and flavonoids; again, all heavily dependent on the child's and mother's diet. It should be remembered that not only is the child dependent on the mother for nourishment during gestation, but also soon after birth. | Certain vitamins and plant chemicals, called phytochemicals, can inhibit the activation of these cancer genes, and prevent a gene's instruction from reaching its destination in the cell's mechanism. This is how genes influence the function of cells, by ordering the secretion of special signaling molecules that instruct enzymes, for instance, to build a special protein that will promote the growth and spread of the cancer. Or in another instance, it will turn off a gene's instructions, preventing the information transcription. | Homocysteine has been found to be an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis; increased levels are found in association with deficiencies of vitamins B6 and B12 and folate.
It is also metabolized into two very powerful excitotoxins, homocysteine sulphenic acid and homocysteic acid. This study of over three thousand individuals found that those who had folate levels in the upper half of values had significantly better memory than those in the lower half.
Low folate levels have also been associated with depression. | Joseph E. Mario See book keywords and concepts | The outer Bran layers (skin, pericarp, endocarp, tegmen, and testa) are composed of insoluble Cellulose for stomach motion and cleaning, Gluten, Minerals, and Trace minerals; the Starchy Endosperm (flour) fuel; and the inner Germ or embryo of Fats (Oils), Proteins, Mineral Phosphates, and vitamins (B-Complex and E), found at one end of the "seed". Potato starch digests in ten minutes, where cereals take two hours
(oats 80 minutes). Dried grains are difficult to digest, being nearly all starches, fermenting before digestion in the duodenum. | Beta-Carotene: For non-toxic body Vitamin A (SEE in Chapter One vitamins), including Xanthophylls, Cryptoxanthin, Echinenone, Lutein, Alpha Carotene, Tetrapyrrote, Porphyrin, Phycoerythrin, and Phytonadione.

If you cannot make new DNA, you will be left with only damaged, old, or malfunctioning DNA—giving your cells the wrong instructions.
Many other nutrients play important roles in normal DNA function as well. Zinc, an essential dietary mineral, forms fingerlike structures within in DNA. Similarly, selenium, another essential mineral, is needed by a key cancer-suppressing gene. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | If people really knew just how much they could prevent chronic disease with these plant extracts, medicinal herbs, vitamins, minerals, and supplements, the pharmaceutical industry would collapse overnight.
The defenders of "Big Pharma" and of organized medicine have realized that they can't win the information war. They can't prevent people from finding out how to be healthy. Believe me, they've tried! They've tried through censorship, oppression, influence, and even attempts to regulate medical information on the internet. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | In fact, some vitamins are assimilated right there in the mouth, in the saliva under the tongue. And once you swallow, they don't have proteins and fats that need to be physically broken down through the churning of the stomach. Basically, the nutrients from Ola Loa are very easy to get to. They are readily absorbed through the walls of the small intestine, into the bloodstream where they go to work creating positive health effects.
By the way, one of the ingredients in this product is a relatively high dosage of CoQ10. | And the important thing about drinking your vitamins is that in Western societies, the older we get, the harder it becomes for us to digest and break down foods and assimilate their nutrients into our bodies. This is especially true in nursing home patients or senior citizens. I used to volunteer at a nursing home, so I know what it's like; I've seen these people, and many of them -- in fact, I would say the vast majority -- are malnourished. They are often still malnourished, even though they are consuming enough food matter and vitamin matter to eliminate deficiencies. | When a customer has good compliance, they stay on the program; they keep taking the supplements or the vitamins or eating the superfoods. Accordingly, this is also a term used by physicians and doctors. Compliance is lacking with many of the potent nutritional supplements out there, from green foods to whole food concentrates. People may try a product for a little while, but if it doesn't taste the way they want it to taste, or if it's difficult for them to swallow, their compliance is going to be very poor and they won't stick with that supplement. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Compared to drugs, vitamins are cheap prevention.

Lie #5: The sun will give you cancer.
Truth #5: The sun will prevent cancer due to the creation of vitamin D by the skin. Most Americans (and Canadians and Europeans, for that matter) are deficient in vitamin D. As a result, tumor cell growth in the breast and prostate is unregulated. Sensible exposure to natural sunlight generates cancer-preventing vitamin D... at no charge! | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Stop believing every news story you read that says "vitamins don't work" and "you should take more drugs." These are pure disinformation, designed to boost the profits of Big Pharma at the expense of your health. Be a skeptical consumer.
Today, it's amazing what passes for "scientific" medicine. Under the guise of so-called science, medical researchers can come up with any conclusion they want. The vitamin E studies are a perfect example of this: they were carefully constructed with gerrymandered statistical curves to create the illusion that vitamin E is somehow bad for your health. | Stories that discredit vitamins and recommend expensive prescription drugs are met with the big "thumbs up" from influential advertisers like drug companies. That must be why journalists around the world leaped on this story and started parroting distorted conclusion (throw away your calcium supplements!) without actually bothering to read the study.
In fact, in looking at ten different articles in the mainstream press, I didn't find a single article that actually mentioned the dosage of calcium of vitamin D that was given to patients. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Think about limiting or eliminating your consumption of red meat and instead nourish your body with the phytonutrients, phytochemicals, vitamins, minerals and even the living energy of plants. That's how you'll be the healthiest you can be. |
