re: negative vegan article - The Book of John

[Guest guest]

Yes, well posted Sass.

 

It make a change to have something really On Topic for a change.

 

Important additional areas rarely measured in any dietary science,

particularly traditional nutrition and allopathic medicine, is the lack

of awareness of four issues:

 

negative food values [ i.e. what does any one food take out of you not

just what does it put in you. what do those de-natured " energy " drinks

or food suppliments take out of you? ]

 

the real nutritional value of foods [ i.e. what *your* body can absorb

rather than just being measured in a test tube. can you for example

absorb any of those added vitamins? ]

 

the value of the real, tangible and measurable subtle energy of food [

i.e. " prana " as via Kerlian photography and it like sciences. does not

exist to a science in total denial because it is not there when it is

empirically dead. ]

 

the power of the mind [ i.e. positive/negative thinking and the immediate

effects on body/mind [ via endocrine ] systems of stress, destructive,

habitual thought patterns etc. ]

 

Further are the environmental effect of geographic and seasonal locations

and Ashley is a prick to our consciences that part of the big picture is

movement and exercise.

 

Outrageously healthy, fit, subtle, personally attractive, sorted out

vegans are the best argument of all. Give up the rest and concentrate on

this one.

 

I find the nature of almost every mutritional advice except for the basic

root of Taoist/Vedic/peasant dietary patterns incredibly immature

scientifically. A hotch potch of " this is good/this is bad " , " this

does this/ this does that " and a lot of " we dont knows/we do not make

money to say thats " and entertainming Fad. There seems to be a huge lack

of an holistic overview from the spiritual point of view down.

 

And believe me, although I have done time in the frontline of wholefood

shops/health clinics and alternative lifestyle, I am not selling

anything. A lot of sick people have an investment in being sick and

cant/wont change.

 

I can accept at the end of the day, physical health is only 10% about

food. Spiritual and planetary healthy is a different matter.

 

But tell them to lay off the animals because you dont need to mess with

them and doing so is messing with everything else ... that is for us to

prove with our lives.

 

> " moncropping " ?

 

> " water rights " ?

 

> " thesis " ?

 

> " carrots " ?

 

Hold on there Sergio,

 

I am kind of too busy to answer right now and exhausted myself on this

thesis but if you can find a web site for The Ecologist Magazine

published in the UK it will give you an introduction to the greater

environmental issues.

 

If your English is good, it would be an excellent magazine to

to and keep up with all the major environmental issues from a very

scientific and political point of view without being dry and academic.

That goes for everyone.

 

Well research killer statistics and fact to make the opposition flee from

your enlightened light. [ not that it will stop them beoufing it up ].

 

Thanks for asking, can anyone else pick this up?
