How hard is it to go to a food store, conventional or
alleged “health” and buy clean, pure food? Well, it’s harder than you think.

We know that the supermarkets sell pesticide/herbicide-laden
foods that can be washed. They are called vegetables.

 We also know that the
supermarkets and some “health” food stores sell animal flesh.

If it’s non-organic it contains bovine growth hormones,
antibiotics, doo-doo, radiation and a host of other toxins and poisons. If it’s
alleged “range-fed” maybe a lot of the crap is not there, but there is one
thing that is always there: Raging fear hormones.

Think about it: do you really believe that when any creature
is taken out of its element and faced with death that they are all happy and
saying, “kill me, kill me, please kill me”?

But that’s a story for another time. Now I want to get into
food that is anything but food and perhaps the following will give you some
insight into the reality that there are people out there that do not give a
s**t about what they sell as long as they can make money.

Imagine them selling and you eating non-descript,
flavorless, chemicalized foods, only so they can make money.

Aspartame is often offered as a tabletop
sweetener. You can also often find aspartame added to soft drinks, sugar free
candies and desserts, frozen desserts or ice creams, iced teas, cocoa mix,
chewing gums, breath mints, yogurts, meal replacements and other low calorie or
sugarless foods.

Aspartame is
designed to be consumed sparingly, so it may be best for you to consume a
combination of low-sugar and regular options when making your food choices.

Soft Drinks. Many powdered soft drinks,
flavoring syrups for coffee, sweetened iced teas, fruit or vegetable juices or
flavored waters will contain aspartame to make them taste sweeter. Common soft
drinks that include aspartame include Coca Cola Zero, Pepsi Max, Lilt Zero,
Sprite Zero, Tango, 7up Free, Lucozade Sport, Schewppes Slimline drinks, Fanta
Zero, Fanta Orange, Dr. Pepper Zero, Oasis Summer Fruits Extra Light, Oasis
Fruit Punch Robinsons Orange Squash, Ribena Really light and Robinson’s no
sugar added beverages. Options Hot Chocolate mix and Cadburys Highlights also
contain aspartame.

Diet Sodas. Most diet sodas will use
artificial sweeteners like aspartame in place of high fructose corn syrup or
cane sugar that are higher in calories. Aspartame has a similar taste to sugar
so those that like to drink sodas and do not like the idea of giving up their
sweet drinks can swap for this lower calorie option without feeling like they
are going without. Some of the most common diet sodas that use aspartame
include Diet Coca Cola products, Diet Pepsi products and Diet Irn Bru.

Gum and
Candies. A
lot of common brands of candy or gum have aspartame as an ingredient. Candies
that are labeled sugar free like chewing gum, hard candy, candy chews or breath
mints will use aspartame. Gum that tends to have aspartame includes Wrigley’s
Extra, Airwaves and Orbit products.

Yogurt. Yogurts that are sugar or fat free
or those that have a drinkable consistency will usually be made with a low-fat
milk and aspartame. Those that want to avoid the aspartame content can purchase
unsweetened yogurt instead of these options. Yogurts that are known to contain
aspartame include Mueller light cherry, blueberry, banana, custard and
raspberry, Dannon Activia, Weight Watchers vanilla and toffee and Weight
Watchers fromage frias.

Desserts. Most desserts that are advertised
as being low-sugar or sugar-free have added aspartame to help maintain the
flavor of the product. Ice cream toppings or novelties, cartons of ice cream,
frozen ices, sugar free mousse, cookies or pies usually use aspartame. Pudding
mixes or gelatin advertised as being sugar-free also usually have aspartame in
them.

Condiments. Most condiments that are
advertised as being lower in sugar like barbeque sauce, maple syrup, fruit
spreads, jelly, jam, chocolate syrup or ketchup will have replaced the sugar
with aspartame so they will still taste sweet but are lower in calories. Condiments
that contain aspartame include Uncle Bens’s Sweet and Sour Light sauce, Silver
Spoon Sweetness light and light granulated sugar and Canderel.

Meal
Replacements. Some
meal replacement options will replace the sugar with aspartame to help reduce
the calories and sugar. A lot of shakes or weight loss bars that are promoted
for dieting will have aspartame included to ensure that they meet specific
calorie goals. If you are trying to cut down on calories should watch how many
of these products they consume because consuming excessive amounts of
artificial sweeteners like aspartame can have negative health effects over
time.

MSG can be used (and hidden) in
processed foods, dietary supplements, cosmetics, personal care products,
pharmaceuticals, and the food that is given to pets and other animals. 

 It can be used in
waxes applied to fresh fruits and vegetables. 

It can be used as ingredients in pesticides, fungicides,
fertilizers, and plant growth enhancers — remaining in the edible portion of the plant or on the edible portion of the plant
when its leaves, fruits, nuts, grains, seeds, and other edible parts are
brought to market.

There are over 40 food ingredients besides “monosodium
glutamate” that contain processed free glutamic acid (MSG). Each,
according to the FDA, must be called by its own, unique, “common or usual
name.”  

“Autolyzed yeast,” “maltodextrin,” “hydrolyzed pea protein”, and “sodium caseinate”
are the common or usual names of some ingredients that contain MSG. 
Unlike the ingredient called “monosodium glutamate,” they give the
consumer no clue that there is MSG in the ingredient.

In addition to ingredients that contain MSG, some acids and
enzymes when combined with a food that contains protein will produce MSG.  The words “enzyme” and “protease” (which is a type of enzyme)
signal the presence of enzymes capable of causing the production of MSG.

In particular…

• Low fat and no fat milk
  products often contain milk solids that contain MSG.
• Other dairy products often
  contain carrageenan, guar gum, and/or locust bean gum.
• Low fat and no fat versions of
  ice cream and cheese may not be as obvious as yogurt, milk, cream, cream
  cheese, cottage cheese, etc., but they are not exceptions.

Protein powders and protein drinks contain glutamic acid,
and the glutamic acid in the protein powders and drinks will always be
processed (manufactured) free glutamic acid (MSG).  Individual amino acids are not always listed on labels of protein
powders and drinks.

At present, there is an FDA requirement to give the name of
the protein source when listing hydrolyzed protein products on labels of
processed foods. 

Examples are hydrolyzed soy protein, hydrolyzed wheat
protein, hydrolyzed pea protein, hydrolyzed whey protein, hydrolyzed, corn
protein.

If a tomato, for example, were whole, it would be
identified as a tomato.

Naming an ingredient “tomato protein” indicates that the
tomato has been hydrolyzed, at least in part, and that processed free glutamic
acid (MSG) is present.

At present, the FDA requires the disclosure of ingredients
labeled “monosodium glutamate” and “hydrolyzed…protein” when, as ingredients,
they are used in a “flavor” or “flavoring” (whether or not the “flavor” or
“flavoring” is preceded by the words “natural” or “artificial”).  However, “flavors” and “flavorings” can contain MSG in ingredients
other than “monosodium glutamate” and “hydrolyzed…Protein” without the MSG
being disclosed.

Disodium guanylate and disodium inosinate are
relatively expensive food additives that work synergistically with inexpensive
processed free glutamic acid (MSG).  We believe that they would only
be used if there were MSG in a product.

MSG will be found in some soaps, shampoos, hair
conditioners, and cosmetics, where MSG is hidden in ingredients with names that
include the words “hydrolyzed,” “amino acids,” and/or
“protein.”

Binders and fillers for prescription and non-prescription
medications, nutrients, and supplements, may contain MSG.

Enteral feeding materials, and some
fluids administered intravenously in hospitals, may contain MSG.

According to the manufacturer, Varivax–Merck chicken pox vaccine (Varicella Virus Live), contains L-monosodium glutamate and hydrolyzed gelatin, both of
which contain processed free glutamic acid (MSG).  

It would appear that most, if not all, live virus vaccines
contain some ingredient(s) that contains MSG.

There are a number of ingredients identified as organic
that, organic or not, will contain processed free glutamic acid (MSG).  Autolyzed yeast, yeast extract, textured soy protein, and anything
hydrolyzed are examples of ingredients that may be made from organic produce,
but will never-the-less contain MSG.

Drinks, candy, and chewing gum are potential sources of
hidden MSG.  They may also contain aspartame, neotame, of AminoSweet (the new name for
aspartame).  

I mention aspartame, neotame, and AminoSweet here because they, like MSG, contain a neurotoxic amino
acid, and can cause the same reactions that MSG causes.

Aspartame will be found in some medications, including
children’s medications.

Anything that breaks down the protein in a product can
produce MSG as it breaks down the protein. There have been reports of people
reacting to meat wrapped in Cryovac, which is a registered trademark for a
thick plastic in which meat is sealed with the air removed by a vacuum pump.
The word Cryovac is also used for the thermoplastic resin wrapping film, which
ca be heat-shrunk onto foods.

Some waxes used on fruits and vegetables contain MSG.

Produce may have been produced using fertilizer or
pesticide products that contain MSG.  Some of these fertilizers may be
organic.  It is impossible to know from
looking at produce whether or not it has been treated with an MSG-containing
fertilizer or pesticide product that leaves residue in or on the produce. 

Some non-organic waxes used on some fruits and vegetables
contain MSG.

Additional sources of MSG include infant formula, kosher
food, enteral feeding products (tube feeding
products), dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, protein drinks often
recommended for seniors, protein bars and protein powders, vaccines, personal care products, protein powders sold in health food stores, food that is
labeled “organic”, wine, food
with labels that say “No Added MSG,” “No MSG Added,” or
“No MSG” , food
that is falsely advertised as containing no MSG, and in food whose manufacturers
claim, in response to questions, that their products contain no MSG.

MSG can be hidden by restaurateurs who claim that the food
they serve contains no MSG

About “organic” products…

Where MSG is concerned, “organic” doesn’t mean
“safe”.  Ingredients like organic
autolyzed yeast and organic natural flavoring have just as much processed
(manufactured) free glutamic acid (MSG) in them as those not called
“organic”.

Also listed as organic are fertilizer products that contain
hydrolyzed fish protein and hydrolyzed chicken feathers.  All hydrolyzed
ingredients contain MSG.

About “Health Food” stores…

Health food stores are mine fields for MSG including the
ever popular Spike seasoning made by Modern Foods. I backed those guys into
such a heavy corner years ago that they ceased their correspondence with me.
Also, just about every bouillon and soup broth sold in so-called Health Food”
stores contains an MSG euphemism.

Protein powders are generally nothing more or less than
hydrolyzed proteins –and will contain all three manufactured neurotoxic amino
acids: glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and L-cysteine.  Food labeled “organic” cannot legitimately contain monosodium
glutamate, but can contain other ingredients that contain MSG.  

Dietary supplements will often contain individual amino
acids (because they can be absorbed by the body more quickly than amino acids
found in protein which have to be digested before they can be absorbed); and if
dietary supplements contain individual amino acids, those amino acids may be
neurotoxic glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and/or L-cysteine, all manufactured in
food and/or chemical plants. 

These are the names of some of the MSG-containing
ingredients often found in Health Food stores:

amino acids (They almost invariably contain glutamic acid.) 
autolyzed yeast 
citric acid

glutamate 
glutamic acid 
hydrolyzed protein 
monopotassium glutamate 
monosodium glutamate 
protein 
whey protein concentrate

There are also chelates. 

Minerals found individually and in some multi-vitamins, are
usually joined to amino acids for better absorption, i.e., the minerals or
multi-vitamins are chelated. 

The following are names used for chelates that will contain MSG and/or aspartic acid and
phenylalanine which are two of the main ingredients in MSG’s toxic cousin
aspartame:

amino acid chelate (chelated with amino acids) 
potassium (or any other mineral ) citrate 
potassium (or any other mineral) aspartate 
potassium (or any other mineral) glutamate 
chelated with hydrolyzed protein, 
chelated with protein 
chelated with amino acids

Some supplement manufacturers place asterisks after the
names of minerals. 

Below the list of ingredients, the asterisk is often
followed by a note that explains that the mineral is “chelated with hydrolyzed protein,” “chelated with protein,” or “chelated with amino acids.” Basically
it is “chelated” with MSG.

Protein powders are all the rage
for body builders and older people.  The main ingredient is typically a
hydrolyzed protein — and hydrolyzed proteins contain MSG, excitotoxic aspartic
acid (found also in aspartame), and excitotoxic L-cysteine (found in some dough
conditioners). 

There has to be concern for
anyone who ingests any form of MSG in his or her diet. 

How sad for the athletes who
ingest MSG just prior to, just following, or in the course of vigorous
exercise, because there is evidence that the adverse effects of MSG, may be
intensified by vigorous exercise. 

Heart irregularities have been know to be caused by ingestion of MSG and/or aspartame.  Heart irregularities can result in cardiac arrest. 

About hospitals,
nursing homes, and extended care facilities…

The most common sources of MSG in hospitals, nursing homes,
and extended care facilities will be:

Soups – even if the institution
purchases soups and/or soup bases that claim to be MSG-free

Protein drinks such as Boost and
Ensure

Enteral care products – used when tube feeding

Gelatin

Gravies

Salad dressings

Intravenous solutions.  Reactions have been reported to
saline solution and solutions containing dextrose.  Ringers solution appears to be MSG-free.

Anything no fat or low fat

Anything made with a sugar substitute likely contains
neurotoxic aspartame, Equal, or AminoSweet.

People with extreme intolerance to MSG have difficulty with
pharmaceuticals that contain MSG in the binders and/or fillers.  

They may also react to the starch on powdered gloves and/or
the contacts that are glued to a patient’s chest for heart monitoring.  The contact points that touch the body may contain guar gum,
which, after several days’ exposure, may cause adverse
reactions.

It’s not only humans that have problems with MSG.  The first evidence of MSG toxicity came from animal studies, some
of which demonstrated that animals suffered brain lesions and endocrine
disorders when fed monosodium glutamate.  The possibility that your
animal is sensitive to MSG is certainly worth considering.  

People who are sensitive to processed free glutamic acid
(MSG), or those who simply would choose to avoid ingestion of toxic amino
acids, need to know that there are two other neurotoxic amino acids commonly
used in food: aspartic acid and L-cysteine.

Aspartic acid is found in the sugar substitutes called
“neotame”, “aspartame”, “AminoSweet”, “NutraSweet” and “Equal.”  L-cysteine
is identified as L-cysteine and is most often found in dough conditioners.

New
peer-reviewed research published recently shows the results of the first animal
feeding trial into the life-time exposure of Roundup tolerant GM corn and
Roundup, the world’s best selling weed killer. 

The
study, published online by the scientific journal, Food and Chemical
Toxicology, shows that levels currently considered safe can cause mammary
tumors, kidney and liver damage, in laboratory rats.

The
study was led by molecular biologist and endocrinologist, Professor Gilles-Eric
Seralini of the University of Caen in France and was supported by the
independent research organization, CRIIGEN.

The
researchers used 200 rats that were fed a diet containing the Roundup tolerant
GM maize, NK603, or given water-containing Roundup, at levels permitted in
drinking water and GM crops in the US.  It showed that these rats
developed tumors faster and died earlier than rats fed on a standard diet.

The
results are an important consideration in the debate around genetically
modified food as this is the first time scientific research has shown a link
between GM food crops and negative health outcomes.

The
research is also the first to show the impact of consuming the herbicide,
Roundup, over a two-year period – the entire lifespan of a rat. 

 Previous studies into GM and Roundup have
stopped at 90 days whereas this research showed that the most serious health
impacts only started to show at four months, with the majority of tumors
developing from 18 months onwards.

But
Bayer-Monsanto, being the salt of the earth that they think they are, had
Richard Goodman, a former employee, take on a newly created position at the FCT
of being in charge of negating and removing GMO reports that spoke the truth
about the adverse health effects of GMOs. And the first and only report
removed? Yup, the Seralini report.  And
yet we are supposed to believe and trust a**holes like this.

GM
food crops are a hotly contested issue around the world. Supporters believe
they could be the silver bullet for feeding an ever-expanding population while
opponents claim GM technology is untested and under-regulated. In the U.S, 70
per cent of all processed food contains GM ingredients without GM labeling and
85 percent of the corn grown in the U.S. is GM.

In
the UK and Europe, GM maize is not consumed directly by humans but it is widely
included in animal feed.

Hundreds
of thousands of tons of GM maize are imported to the UK each year for use in
the diets of chickens, pigs and dairy cows. Products from these animals are
currently sold in British supermarkets without any requirement for GM labeling.
Michael Antoniou, molecular biologist and gene expert at Kings
College, London says,  “This is the most thorough research ever published
into the health effects of GM food crops and the herbicide Roundup on rats. It
shows an extraordinary number of tumors developing earlier and more
aggressively – particularly in female animals.

Patrick
Holden, the CEO of the Sustainable Food Trust says, “In-line with our core
mission of developing a body of informed public opinion about the links between
farming practice and health, the SFT was approached by CRIIGEN to play a
supportive role in communicating the outcomes of this research as widely as
possible. 

The
SFT considers that research of this kind is fundamentally important to
informing the dialogue around how we produce our food, and the SFT has an
important role to play in communicating such research findings in accessible,
plain English so that the majority of the general public feel able to engage
with these issues”

To
help further communicate these results, Sustainable Food Trust has commissioned
a micro site (research.sustainablefoodtrust.org) that
breaks down the research findings into key messages and provides information
that can be easily shared using social media.

Aine
Morris, the Communications Director for the Sustainable Food Trust says, “It
doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from you will be able to download
the information in a way that you can understand.  The micro site will
hold a range of resources and communications materials because we feel it is
important that rigorous, independent, peer-reviewed science is made available
and understandable to everybody.”

The
research findings raise serious questions about the current regulatory process
for licensing industrial chemicals, pesticides and other new-generation crops.
 Only Roundup’s active principle, glyphosate, has ever been tested rather
than the commercial product, which includes ingredients that enable the
glyphosate to penetrate plants more efficiently. To date, all GM crops have
been approved safe for consumption on the basis of 90-day animal feeding
trials.

Patrick
Holden believes there is an urgent need for more research into both the wide
spread use of pesticides and the consumption of GM food crops. 

He
says,“The implications of this research suggest potential
flaws in the current regulatory process which, due to the short-duration of the
required feeding-trials, may fail to identify the serious, long-term health
consequences of consuming these crops.

To
ensure that the public is protected against potential exposure, there is a need
to review the regulatory framework, and to undertake further research into
potentially similar health impacts of these crops on humans.”

details of the full research findings please visit the micro site research.sustainablefoodtrust.org

Oh
yeah, before I forget, Bayer-Monsanto is now spraying 2-4-D the active
ingredient of Agent Orange on their cornfields in the USA. Yummmy!

They
say it will not have an adverse effect on a person’s health if they are sprayed
on by it or if they eat it. So how come the guys that spray the cornfields wear
HASMAT suits and how come our military people that served in Viet Nam are still
undergoing medical care from being exposed to it over 50 years ago?

Oh
yeah, before I forget, Bayer-Monsanto is creating “foods” impervious to the
chemtrails. Sooner than later they will open the first Soylent Green factory.

Anyone who doubts how important it is to read labels will
suffer severe health ramifications.

Don’t say you’ve never been warned!

Aloha!

When I was a kid, if I were told that I’d be writing a book about diet and nutrition when I was older, let alone having been doing a health related radio show for over 36 years, I would’ve thought that whoever told me that was out of their mind. Living in Newark, New Jersey, my parents and I consumed anything and everything that had a face or a mother except for dead, rotting, pig bodies, although we did eat bacon (as if all the other decomposing flesh bodies were somehow miraculously clean). Going through high school and college it was no different. In fact, my dietary change did not come until I was in my 30’s.

Just to put things in perspective, after I graduated from Weequahic High School and before going to Seton Hall University, I had a part-time job working for a butcher. I was the delivery guy and occasionally had to go to the slaughterhouse to pick up products for the store. Needless to say, I had no consciousness nor awareness, as change never came then despite the horrors I witnessed on an almost daily basis.

After graduating with a degree in accounting from Seton Hall, I eventually got married and moved to a town called Livingston. Livingston was basically a yuppie community where everyone was judged by the neighborhood they lived in and their income. To say it was a “plastic” community would be an understatement.

Livingston and the shallowness finally got to me. I told my wife I was fed up and wanted to move. She made it clear she had to be near her friends and New York City. I finally got my act together and split for Colorado.

I was living with a lady in Aspen at the end of 1974, when one day she said, ” let’s become vegetarians”. I have no idea what possessed me to say it, but I said, “okay”! At that point I went to the freezer and took out about $100 worth of frozen, dead body parts and gave them to a welfare mother who lived behind us. Well, everything was great for about a week or so, and then the chick split with another guy.

So here I was, a vegetarian for a couple weeks, not really knowing what to do, how to cook, or basically how to prepare anything. For about a month, I was getting by on carrot sticks, celery sticks, and yogurt. Fortunately, when I went vegan in 1990, it was a simple and natural progression. Anyway, as I walked around Aspen town, I noticed a little vegetarian restaurant called, “The Little Kitchen”.

Let me back up just a little bit. It was April of 1975, the snow was melting and the runoff of Ajax Mountain filled the streets full of knee-deep mud. Now, Aspen was great to ski in, but was a bummer to walk in when the snow was melting.

I was ready to call it quits and I needed a warmer place. I’ll elaborate on that in a minute.

But right now, back to “The Little Kitchen”. Knowing that I was going to leave Aspen and basically a new vegetarian, I needed help. So, I cruised into the restaurant and told them my plight and asked them if they would teach me how to cook. I told them in return I would wash dishes and empty their trash. They then asked me what I did for a living and I told them I was an accountant.

The owner said to me, “Let’s make a deal. You do our tax return and we’ll feed you as well”. So for the next couple of weeks I was doing their tax return, washing their dishes, emptying the trash, and learning as much as I could.

But, like I said, the mud was getting to me. So I picked up a travel book written by a guy named Foder. The name of the book was, “Hawaii”. Looking through the book I noticed that in Lahaina, on Maui, there was a little vegetarian restaurant called,” Mr. Natural’s”. I decided right then and there that I would go to Lahaina and work at “Mr. Natural’s.” To make a long story short, that’s exactly what happened.

So, I’m working at “Mr. Natural’s” and learning everything I can about my new dietary lifestyle – it was great. Every afternoon we would close for lunch at about 1 PM and go to the Sheraton Hotel in Ka’anapali and play volleyball, while somebody stayed behind to prepare dinner.

Since I was the new guy, and didn’t really know how to cook, I never thought that I would be asked to stay behind to cook dinner. Well, one afternoon, that’s exactly what happened; it was my turn. That posed a problem for me because I was at the point where I finally knew how to boil water.

I was desperate, clueless and basically up the creek without a paddle. Fortunately, there was a friend of mine sitting in the gazebo at the restaurant and I asked him if he knew how to cook. He said the only thing he knew how to cook was enchiladas. He said that his enchiladas were bean-less and dairy-less. I told him that I had no idea what an enchilada was or what he was talking about, but I needed him to show me because it was my turn to do the evening meal.

Well, the guys came back from playing volleyball and I’m asked what was for dinner. I told them enchiladas; the owner wasn’t thrilled. I told him that mine were bean-less and dairy-less. When he tried the enchilada he said it was incredible. Being the humble guy that I was, I smiled and said, “You expected anything less”? It apparently was so good that it was the only item on the menu that we served twice a week. In fact, after about a week, we were selling five dozen every night we had them on the menu and people would walk around Lahaina broadcasting, ‘enchilada’s at “Natural’s” tonight’. I never had to cook anything else.

A year later the restaurant closed, and somehow I gravitated to a little health food store in Wailuku. I never told anyone I was an accountant and basically relegated myself to being the truck driver. The guys who were running the health food store had friends in similar businesses and farms on many of the islands. I told them that if they could organize and form one company they could probably lock in the State. That’s when they found out I was an accountant and “Down to Earth” was born. “Down to Earth” became the largest natural food store chain in the islands, and I was their Chief Financial Officer and co-manager of their biggest store for 13 years.

In 1981, I started to do a weekly radio show to try and expose people to a vegetarian diet and get them away from killing innocent creatures. I still do that show today. I pay for my own airtime and have no sponsors to not compromise my honesty. One bit of a hassle was the fact that I was forced to get a Masters Degree in Nutrition to shut up all the MD’s that would call in asking for my credentials.

My doing this radio show enabled me, through endless research, to see the corruption that existed within the big food industries, the big pharmaceutical companies, the biotech industries and the government agencies. This information, unconscionable as it is, enabled me to realize how broken our health system is. This will be covered more in depth in the Introduction and throughout the book and when you finish the book you will see this clearly and it will hopefully inspire you to make changes.

I left Down to Earth in 1989, got nationally certified as a sports injury massage therapist and started traveling the world with a bunch of guys that were making a martial arts movie. After doing that for about four years I finally made it back to Honolulu and got a job as a massage therapist at the Honolulu Club, one of Hawaii’s premier fitness clubs. It was there I met the love of my life who I have been with since 1998. She made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. She said,” If you want to be with me you’ve got to stop working on naked women”. So, I went back into accounting and was the Chief Financial Officer of a large construction company for many years.

Going back to my Newark days when I was an infant, I had no idea what a “chicken” or “egg” or “fish” or “pig” or “cow” was. My dietary blueprint was thrust upon me by my parents as theirs was thrust upon them by their parents. It was by the grace of God that I was able to put things in their proper perspective and improve my health and elevate my consciousness.

The road that I started walking down in 1975 has finally led me to the point of writing my book, “A Sane Diet For An Insane World”. Hopefully, the information contained herein will be enlightening, motivating, and inspiring to encourage you to make different choices. Doing what we do out of conditioning is not always the best course to follow. I am hoping that by the grace of the many friends and personalities I have encountered along my path, you will have a better perspective of what road is the best road for you to travel on, not only for your health but your consciousness as well.

Last but not least: after being vaccinated as a kid I developed asthma, which plagued me all of my life. In 2007 I got exposed to the organic sulfur crystals, which got rid of my asthma in 3 days and has not come back in over 10 years. That, being the tip of the iceberg, has helped people reverse stage 4 cancers, autism, joint pain, blood pressure problems, migraine headaches, erectile dysfunction, gingivitis, and more. Also, because of the detoxification effects by the release of oxygen that permeates and heals all the cells in the body, it removes parasites, radiation, fluoride, free radicals, and all the other crap that is thrust upon us in the environment by Big Business.
