Chapter One: Don't Fall for the Jokes

The state of America's health these days is a joke; or rather it is the result of several jokes. Maybe we should call them gags. These were ideas that the American public was fed and that they believed. If it were not for massive amounts of advertising, people would never have taken these jokes seriously. They would have been laughed off and forgotten.

Instead the American public fell for them, hook, line and sinker with a pie in the face and now, according to the Surgeon General, America is the sickest it has ever been in her history. One very obvious sign of this condition is that the current cost for sickness care in the United States is over one and a half trillion dollars. That's significantly bigger than the gross national product of most of the other countries in the world.

That sounds like a bad joke, doesn't it? So let's talk about the nature of these jokes. The first gag is that products that come out of factories and contain materials derived from petroleum chemicals are foods. Your body knows what foods are. They grow out of the ground and hang on trees and live in the natural world. When something comes out of an aerosol can looking like some kind of mix between a crayon and a cheese spread that is not a food.

That was a joke, but when you eat that stuff you're body's not laughing. In 1940 80% of the American diet were natural foods. By the turn of the millennium, 70-80% of what people are eating is coming out of factories wrapped in plastic, stuffed in boxes or pumped into cans. That is faux food. That is a bad joke that people shouldn't take so seriously that they try to live on the stuff.

Here's another good joke people fell for.That was the idea that cow milk, produced for calves by mother cows that have been fed synthetic estrogen hormones and shot up with synthetic antibiotics is a good food for humans and that it should be used everywhere. They were joking! They never thought you'd take them seriously. Cow's milk contains a type of glue called casein that is not found in either human milk or even goats milk. It's used for making white craft glue.

But hey, if you want to look like a cow, a little head with a big round body and have your hormonal system screwed up and your immune system trashed, then by all means drink lots of cow milk. Do you see what we mean, every place you look in markets and restaurants, products are made from or mixed with dairy products, but considering their impact upon the human body, they had to be joking!

Here's another good one. In the 1880's, during the industrial revolution, factories developed steel rollers that allowed them to take all of the fiber, germ and other vital nutrients out of grains. When they did this with wheat, the only part of the plant left in any significant quantity was the gluey paste that is stuck to the germ to feed the sprout. It is called gluten. Well the joke was that the same stuff that makes good glue would make a good food! It's the idea that food should stick to your ribs. They were joking! Take the T and the N out of gluten and what do you get? Glue! They never thought that this wheat paste would become 30% of the American diet. Change the A to an E in pasta and what do you get? Paste! Today, lots of people's intestines and other organs are glued together with gluten from wheat and casein from cow dairy. Is this funny? Personally we don't get the joke.

Here's a good one! No Fat Low Fat! This one really should have gotten a few chuckles. After all, the thing that makes foods taste good are the fats that they contain. The body can get twice as much energy from assimilating fat as from protein, and many times more energy from fat than carbohydrates. A protein is always bound to fat. The sign to your body that you've had enough to eat is having enough fat. That's why years ago the portions people ate were smaller and people left the table satisfied.

Today foods are low in fats and they keep making the portions bigger and bigger and people still leave the restaurant hungry. This was a bad joke. Consider that all of the hormones in the body are fats. The No Fat Low Fat starves the hormonal system. No one in their right mind would do that. Starving your body for good fats makes you feel cold, irritable, cranky, and it reduces your libido and immunity. I'll tell you what it doesn't do! It doesn't help you lose weight.

Quite the opposite, since No Fat Low Fat became popular obesity is skyrocketing. That was a bad joke with a lousy punch line. This one's a favorite of ours. No Salt Low Salt. Did this one get them rolling in aisles? Well actually dying in the aisles if the truth is told. Two of the most important minerals for the body are potassium and sodium. If you starve the body for these vital nutrients all kinds of wacky things happen.

The joke started because studies showed that people who added a lot of salt to their food were having problems with their blood pressure. So they said, boy have we got a good one for you. Take all the sodium out of your diet. Well, the punch line is that while it didn't lower the blood pressure it did succeed in killing a bunch of people. Why? Because sodium is vital to the body! What they didn't consider was that in the commercially produced, cheap salt that most people use there are other things besides sodium and potassium. Namely microscopic gravel!

When this stuff gets into the blood stream it scratches the insides of the veins. In response the body manufactures cholesterol to patch the damage and after a while of this the blood pressure goes up to compensate for the restrictions in the blood stream. Don't you hate it when you have to explain a joke? You can purchase pure salt. It's costs a little bit more, but then at least no one is laughing at you behind your back.

Here's one more joke, and it's a good one. That is the idea that the Sun is bad for you! This had them roaring from California to Hawaii. But some people took them seriously. Amazing huh? Now here's the punch line. And remember the best jokes work on a couple different levels. People fell for the gag but they still wanted to be outside, so they started slathering on gallons of those cheap sun tan lotions. You know the ones, the big brand names made with cheap petroleum products like mineral oil, synthetic colors, scents and preservatives.

Well, now the truth is out, the reason for the rash of skin cancers wasn't exposure to the Sun; it was from the petroleum products in those cheap sun blocks. We can buy natural sun tan lotions, they don't cost much more and they don't give you cancer. The Sun being bad for you, what a joke! Without the Sun there's no life on Earth. It's amazing what people will believe.
