The Gerson diet cures a heap of maladies - perhaps we could all try that for

a change?

I went on the Gerson website (gerson dot org) - you are correct-

excellent suggestion for a new life giving way to eat. I thought I

would respond after seeing this on the website that you referred us

to (following words directly from the website of the American

nightmare to (just maybe) help anyone who might be on the fence about

changing their diet.

 

" Summation:

Without grain, livestock cannot be fed. Without livestock there is

no meat. Without bees, vegetables and fruit cannot grow. Without

all three, a nation cannot survive. "

 

It is inefficient to grow grains and other feed crops for animals—

only a small fraction of what we feed them is actually turned into

flesh that humans can eat. The vast majority is used by the animal to

live and grow. The highly respected Worldwatch Institute says, " In a

world where an estimated one in every six people goes hungry each

day, the politics of meat consumption are increasingly heated, since

meat production is an inefficient use of grain—the grain is used more

efficiently when consumed directly by humans. Continued growth in

meat output is dependent on feeding grain to animals, creating

competition for grain between affluent meat-eaters and the world's

poor. "

 

And just for your info. . .Cows are gentle giants, large in size but

sweet in nature. They are curious, clever animals who have been known

to go to amazing lengths to escape from slaughterhouses. These very

social animals prefer to spend their time together, and they form

complex relationships, very much like dogs form packs. Like all

animals, cows form strong maternal bonds with their children, and on

dairy farms and cattle ranches, mother cows can be heard crying out

for their calves for days after they are separated.

In the U.S., more than 41 million of these sensitive animals suffer

and die for the meat and dairy industries every year. 1 When they are

still very young, cows are burned with hot irons (branding), their

testicles are ripped out of their scrotums (castration), and their

horns are cut or burned off—all without painkillers. Once they have

grown big enough, they are sent to massive, muddy feedlots to be

fattened for slaughter or to dairy farms where they are shot with

growth hormones (and we wonder why we are getting bigger and bigger

and our childen bodies are maturing much earlier) and fed with

excessive amounts of antibiotics (we wonder why we are not

reswponding to antibiotics and why there are now antibiotic immune

super bugs) and where they will be repeatedly impregnated and

separated from their calves until their bodies give out and they are

sent to die.

 

Cattle raised for beef are usually born in one state, fattened in

another, and slaughtered in yet another. They are transported

hundreds of miles in all weather extremes to the slaughterhouse. Many

cows die on the way to slaughter, and those who survive are shot in

the head with a bolt gun, hung up by their legs, and taken onto the

killing floor, where their throats are cut and they are skinned. Some

cows remain fully conscious throughout the entire process—according

to one slaughterhouse worker, in an interview with the Washington

Post, " they die piece by piece. "

Oh yes - cows are beautiful and wonderful creatures - did you ever see that

woman with personality problems who related to cows and spent hours with

them to calm herself down? An amazing progamme recently on TV here in Oz -

your words took me back also to that wonderful book " Diet for a Small

Planet " - I've been vegetarian since the 50's so you are speaking to the

converted - but it was good to read that you also enjoy the creatures rather

than their flesh,

 

Best,

I agree that the way animals are treated by large corporations is

deplorable, but I can't say that this would be evidence to stop eating

meat. I have just finished reading " Nutrition and Physical

Degeneration " by Weston A. Price and it is clear that in order to have

teeth free from cavities, strong bones, and overall good health,

humans require animal protein (www.westonaprice.org). Even the Gerson

diet promotes the use of injectable crude liver extract. I think the

answer lies in sustainable farming practices, not giving up animal

products.
