When Lord Palmerston, premier of England, was petitioned by the Scotch clergy to appoint a day of prayer and fasting to avert
the cholera, he replied in effect:
Cleanse and disinfect your streets and houses, promote cleanliness and health among the poor, and see that they are plentifully supplied with good food and raiment, and employ right sanitation measures generally, and you will have no occasion to fast and pray. Nor will the Lord hear your prayers while
these, His preventives, remain unheeded.
Our bodies are built up from the food we eat, therefore, those foods
should be chosen that best supply the elements needed for building up
the body.
“You are what you eat”So... what should be eaten?

Problems With Fish and Fish OilsProblems With Fish and Fish Oils
• Can worsen blood sugar levels in diabetics• Large amounts can dangerously prolong blood clotting time• Fish oil is expensive• Large amounts can cause vitamin overloading or vitamin
deficiency• Can lead to an increase in body weight• Sea food is a large reservoir for infectious diseases• Toxins acquired from contaminated waters concentrate in the
fatty tissues of fish
Fish from mildly polluted water concentrate toxins up to more that 1,000,000 times more than detected in water
Toxins in their fatty tissues include pesticides, chlorinated hydrocarbons, mercury, and dioxin
Fish can also be contaminated with PCB’s, various heavy metals, petroleum hydrocarbons, halogenated organic compounds, and lead

If cooks pretended that in handling raw meat, they were handling a lump of raw sewage in a food environment, and took all the
necessary precautions, then that would be just about adequate.
• Therapeutic use - Fix the one sick cow. (Human toxic effect.)
• Prophylactic use - Protect the whole herd.
• Growth promotion - Part of the feed. (Human hypersensitivity effect.)
Chickens are now being fed their own excrement to about 50% of their total
intake of food, its very economical. But it means that contaminants, such as drugs, hormones, pesticides and antibiotics are
getting more and more concentrated each time they go through.
• Cases of allergy, including...– Asthma (3 times more common in youth today
than in their parent’s day.)– Eczema (6 times more common today.)
• Have increased alarmingly over the past few decades
• Use of antibiotics in food animals has also increased greatly.
There are approximately 23 different amino acids
known to man.Each protein molecule will be made up of hundreds of these amino acid
building blocks.

There are no benefits but many risks associated with consuming too much
protein.• Animal protein often high in fat• Fat contributes to obesity• High meat eating linked to colon cancer•The more protein consumed, the less fruits, vegetables, grains•High protein diets promote calcium excretion•Excessive protein may cause fluid imbalances

“…Eating much flesh will diminish intellectual activity. Students would accomplish much more in their studies if they never tasted meat. When the animal part of the human nature is strengthened by meat-eating, the intellectual power diminishes proportionately.”
Starch granules were found in blood, urine, bile, and human milk after a human subject drank a suspension of water and raw starch.
Radiologists can detect many tiny lacunar scars in the brains of all people over the age of 30. Some scientists

Exercise May Curb Breast Cancer RiskExercise May Curb Breast Cancer Risk
A study of 1090 women over the age of 40 found:
Those who averaged four or more hours of activity per week during reproductive years had a 58% lower breast cancer risk.
Those who averaged one to three hours of weekly activity had a 30% lower risk.

reason for women to exercise.”Louise Brinton, researcher at the National Cancer Institute

WHAT IS “TEMPERANCE”?
Ask yourself,
Do I exercise enough?
Do I get enough sleep?
Do I eat nutritious food? How much?Food should be eaten at the same time daily, five to six hours between meals. No food should be taken between meals.
