Linda’s comments:  WE MUST STOP GMO FOOD PRODUCTION….OR AT LEAST LABEL FOODS THAT CONTAIN GMO….the industry knows if they label, people will not buy, except for the “sheeple”….protect your families and especially your children….JUST SAY NO TO GMO….

Monsanto GMO foods are causing symptoms like allergies, asthma, weight problems, serious digestive disorders, arthritis, autoimmune diseases, and anxiety. By just eliminating all GMO foods some of these issues to responded.

I somehow feel that in the future we will need community gardens or some way to affordable get real food for people again. Just look at Mark Hyman’s wildly successful weight loss and improved glucose control etc. in people if they stop all wheat and dairy.

Now, in addition, Russell Blaylock’s current news letter reports that dairy, particularly skim milk, is the biggest risk factor for prostate cancer. What have we done to our food supply?

Dramatic Health Recoveries Reported By Patients Who Took Their Doctor’s Advice and Stopped Using GMO Foods
by Jeffrey M. Smith

Are genetically modified (GM) foods making you sick – I mean really sick? Up until recently, all that we could say was thank goodness you’re not a lab rat; GM feed messes them up big time. GMOs (genetically modified organisms) appear to trigger the immune systems of both mice and rats as if they were under attack. In addition, the gastrointestinal system is adversely affected, animals age more quickly, and vital organs are damaged.

Dr. Gordon’s Comments:

Good food may be coming soon to America! This is an extremely exciting new concept, affordable tasty healthy fast food!! We want to encourage the principals in this exciting project to expand and support them in every way we can.

Get Your LYFE Back: Vote with Your Fork

Everybody has thought of it, but no one has done it. And we desperately need it!
How do we get food that tastes better than what you find in almost any restaurant or chain in America for a fraction of the cost? How do you “eat good, feel good and do good” when you eat your lunch?

Imagine eating food that delights your palette, heals your body, and supports the transformation of our agriculture and food supply by networking and supporting small, local, organic and clean farmers and fisheries. Imagine eating dishes spiced with herbs grown in the middle of the restaurant.

Obesity is the issue but how to personalize your approach may be as easy as getting a GTT with insulin measurements and those that are high insulin secretors go on low glycemic food diet.

Of course, you might also want to go to www.ilgenetics.com and do the gene test to see how that correlates since they documented twice the weight loss on the same calorie intake when you use their test to determine who must be primarily plant based I.E. Pritikin and who does better on the Atkin’s approach.

Excerpt:

Despite the common observation that obesity runs in families, genetic research shows that the habits you inherit from your family are more important than the genes you inherit. Obesity genes account for only five percent of all weight problems. Then, we have to wonder, what causes the other 95 percent of weight problems? 

We are seeing an epidemic of obesity in America today. It is the single most important public health issue facing us. If genes do not account for obesity, perhaps it is our high-fat diet that is to blame. That has been the common belief in our society since nutritional low fat guidelines were pushed upon us in the 1970’s. It seems logical that eating fat makes you fat. Fat contains nine calories per gram, so it would seem that eating more fat (and more calories) would make you gain weight. But that’s not what the science reveals.
Pioneering research by Harvard Medical School’s David Ludwig reveals the reason that low-fat diets do not work — and identifies the true cause of obesity for most Americans. Dr. Ludwig’s research explains the real reasons 70 percent of Americans are overweight. In the 1980’s not one state had an obesity rate over 20 percent. In 2010, ONLY one state has an obesity rate UNDER 20 percent. This is not a genetic problem.

What the Research Tells Us about Dietary Fat
In a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (i) Dr. Ludwig correctly points out that careful review of all the studies on dietary fat and body fat — such as those done by Dr. Walter Willett of the Harvard School of Public Health — have shown that dietary fat is not a major determinant of body fat. 

Let me repeat that. Dietary fat is not a major determinant of body fat.
The Women’s Health Initiative, which is the largest clinical trial of diet and body weight, found that 50,000 women on low-fat diets had no significant weight loss. Yet another study looked at people who followed four different diets for 12 months — and found no dramatic differences between those who followed low-fat, low-carb and very- low-carb diets. 
The question then is, why aren’t we seeing any significant effects or differences from these various diets? The main reason, Dr. Ludwig suggests, is that we are looking for answers in the wrong place.
