Even though James Lind, a British physician, showed in 1747 that oranges and lemons could prevent scurvy, it was another 50 years before the British navy mandated a daily ration of lime juice on all vessels (thus giving British sailors the traditional nickname, limeys). | | She tells her patients to cut out coffee, sugar, and refined foods and start on healthier diets that include more fresh fruits and vegetables, more whole grains, and less red meat. Also, she suggests that they take multi-vitamin/mineral supplements that provide nutrients in amounts higher than the Daily Values.
Boost Enzymes and Stomach Acid
Sometimes, deficiencies are due to poor absorption of minerals and vitamins in the digestive tract. People with fibromyalgia often have low levels of stomach acid, which leads to an incomplete breakdown of food, says Dr. Fay. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Breakfast should include a serving of oatmeal or Fiber-One with fresh fruits such as blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, etc.
?Consume V2 clove of garlic, raw or as a condiment in cooking, or take one Kyolic tablet after each meal.
?Eat l/z grapefruit, including all white pulp (the material between the yellow skin and the fruit).
?Eat one pear or one apple daily.
?Consume one teaspoon of Perfect 7 Psyllium/Herbal Combination three days a week. (Most health food stores carry this mixture as well as Kyolic tablets.)
The following supplements should be taken daily:
1. | | This modern case of scurvy was caused by eating only processed foods, with no fresh fruits or vegetables. Vitamin C was the antidote.
Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that is necessary for tissue growth and repair, particularly in the gums. Vitamin C also plays a critical role in the absorption of iron, which is necessary for the formation of red blood cells, thereby preventing anemia. Doctors frequently will administer vitamin C in combination with iron, for vitamin C creates an acidic pH in the stomach so that iron-bound compounds can be absorbed. | | They ate a diet of grains, fresh fruits, and vegetables. Many sometimes lacked for food, which obviously caused calorie restrictions.
3. They enjoyed good relationships, with love, intimacy, and support in their lives.
4. Many of these individuals continued to have an active sex life, even in their eighties and nineties.
Thus, the common factors for longevity appear to include a high-fiber diet, exercise, and supportive, loving relationships. In addition, these people had optimistic outlooks on life. | | Eating a high-fiber, healthy-fat diet and consuming generous amounts of fresh fruits and vegetables will provide the necessary flavonoids and carotenoids to combat cancer and heart disease—and will also protect you from breast cancer, according to current research. Other studies report that the saturated fat commonly found in meats and full-fat dairy products increases a woman's risk of ovarian cancer by an average of 20 percent.
Regular daily exercise, as previously mentioned, is extremely beneficial, especially for cardiovascular health. | | Although eating fresh fruits and vegetables on a daily basis would help, it is accepted that transport and storage can diminish vitamin content in some produce. In the article printed in this paper, it was stated that it is preferable to eat a fresh orange rather than take supplements. How fresh is fresh? Has that orange been laced with chemical agents or pesticides? Many vitamins and minerals are not prevalent in the diet, specifically coenzyme Q10, vital to people suffering from cardiovascular problems. | | Since young children often do not consume the amounts of fresh fruits and vegetables they need, vitamin preparations based on natural food sources, such as alfalfa, chlorella, green barley, wheat grass, carrots, spinach, and kale, are preferred. A varied diet, consisting of a balanced supply of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats, with minimal amounts of sugar, fast foods, and processed foods, will help provide a sound nutritional base for a growing child.
Many parents are unaware of the inadequate or even harmful eating habits of their children. |

Recommendations
Eliminate refined sugar and processed food that contains refined sugar such as table sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup and dextrose. Use natural sweeteners such as maple syrup, raw honey, black strap molasses, date sugar and others.
2. Eliminate Trans-Fatty Acids
Fat is a much-maligned macronutrient. |
Stephanie Beling
See book keywords and concepts |  In 1989, a study investigating occurrence of second primary cancers came up with an interesting finding: that the risk of second primary cancers was 40 to 60 percent lower among patients whose diet had emphasized dark green leafy vegetables, legumes, cruciferous and yellow vegetables, and fresh fruits. Of course, people had always known these foods were "good for you," but that these particular foods should be associated with these particular cancer-fighting statistics raised a flag.
Nutritional scientists set out to discover why such a diet seemed to prevent disease. | | In effect, fresh fruits and vegetables are available all year round.
Some fruits that must travel considerable distances to market, however, are harvested before the enzymatic process has finished so that the ripening can continue during the journey. Green bananas and peaches will finish ripening just fine on your windowsill. Fruits such as berries and apples stop ripening the minute they're picked, however, and are often treated with ethylene gas and/or kept in cold storage for the journey from farm to the market. Keep that in mind when you buy. | | There are also fruit compotes and fruit shakes (what we might call processed fresh fruits) that taste sensational and offer, in an altered state, equivalent phytochemical strength.
Fruit spreads are a wonderful low-fat alternative to butter, cheese, and margarine. Here's a quick and easy way to get more fresh fruit into your homemade fruit spreads without added sugar, without pectin, without mason jars, without paraffin, without a lot of trouble. You want fresh, ripe fruits or berries—anything from the ordinary apricot, for example, to the more exotic quince, currants, and gooseberries. |
Ben Davis
See book keywords and concepts | | Between fasts, there is rest in bed, light exercise requiring skill rather than strength, and a diet of fresh fruits and vegetables, with only moderate amounts of fat, sugar, starch or protein. This doctor prefers vegetable proteins—nuts and sunflower seeds are especially good, he says. (See page 167.)
EPILEPSY
Medical doctors state that epilepsy can be controlled but not cured. |
Rudolph M. Ballentine, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts |  Summer is a great time to do this, because generally you'll get more fresh fruits and vegetables, sunshine, and fresh air then, and as a result you'll need less supplementation. And since you don't wear a computerized intravenous dispenser, you are doomed to dose yourself in a way that is not precise. The stuff you take in that isn't needed must be gotten rid of. Give your body a chance to flush it all out.
Third, make peace with the fact that you've probably had multiple minor deficiences for years. |
George R. Schwartz
See book keywords and concepts |  Be aware: fresh fruits and vegetables often are sprayed or coated with a variety of chemicals; fresh fish may be sprayed with an MSG solution; and freshly cooked seafood may be boiled or breaded with an MSG mixture. Ground beef is sometimes mixed with fillers such as carrageenan, a substance from seaweed designed to give food a slippery feel, which may contain MSG.
2. Read labels carefully (see Chapter 8 for tips on reading labels). |
Rudolph M. Ballentine, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts | | There's a hyperlipidemia in my family, and we were all put on a diet of beans and rice, fresh fruits, and vegetables years ago."
Rebecca heaved a sigh of relief. I relaxed. The class sat forward in their chairs. I had an attentive audience the rest of the day.
Whole foods without sugar, salt, and grease create a "safe space" nutritionally—a space where you can eat with confidence, satisfaction, and delight. This is a place to experiment freely, reeducate your taste buds, and restore a trusting relationship with your body's natural, spontaneous impulses. |
Barrie R Cassileth, Ph.D.
See book keywords and concepts |  Even cutting back on animal meats and full-fat dairy products helps, as does increasing your intake of fresh fruits and vegetables. Vegetarian diets also are less expensive.
If you now eat like the average American and want to move toward a more vegetarian diet, start gradually. Begin by reducing meat and changing to low- or no-fat dairy products. At the same time, introduce increased amounts of fiber-containing vegetables and grains gradually, so that your system has a chance to adjust.
Neither total nor extreme vegetarianism is'necessary to experience health benefits. |
Lita Lee, Lisa Turner and Burton Goldberg
See book keywords and concepts |  She stopped taking all of the drags and consulted a naturopathic doctor who started her on a cleansing program of fresh fruits, vegetables, and high-protein foods. "This was a turning point," recounts Heather. But she still had a long way to go. That same year Heather's mother, a registered dietitian, began studying enzyme therapy. When Heather turned 18, she began an enzyme treatment program under her mother's supervision. | | Dietary Recommendations
Eat a wide variety of organic, whole, unprocessed foods, including fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, beans, organic eggs, organic poultry or beef, and raw, unpasteurized milk and dairy products.
For more dietary recommendations, see
"Guidelines for Healthy Eating," Chapter l: Why Enzymes?, pp. 26-27. | | Some diabetics can tolerate whole fresh fruits and some cannot, at least at the beginning of therapy. Each case is individual and, of course, any digestive problems must be remediated with enzyme therapy.
Foods to Avoid
?Bleached white flour. Not only have the bran and germ been stripped away, but bleached flour also contains a substance from the flour bleach (alloxan) which causes diabetes in animals. Unbleached white flour should also be avoided since it is stripped of essential nutrients.
?White sugar and all refined sugars, including fructose, corn syrup, and dextrose. |
David Brownstein
See book keywords and concepts |  NUTRITIONAL SUPPORT FOR THE OVARIES
A proper diet is the mainstay. fresh fruits and vegetables are essential. Eliminate caffeine and drink adequate amounts of water. The ovaries require an adequate iodine intake to function optimally. Seafood is an excellent source of iodine, as is Celtic Sea Salt. The following supplements are helpful: Vitamin C-3,000mg/day, Vitamin D-400I.U./day, Calcium Citrate-1,000mg/day and Magnesium Chelate-400mg/day.
A WORD OF CAUTION
Health food stores may advertise products developed from yams as having natural progesterone-like effects on the body. | | A proper diet is the mainstay. fresh fruits and vegetables are essential. Phytoestrogens, which are compounds found naturally in food, can stimulate the body's own estrogen receptors. Phytoestrogens are found in soy products and herbal products like Dong Quai and Black Cohosh. An adequate intake of phytoestrogens will minimize the symptoms of estrogen deficiency. In Asian countries, where the intake of fermented soy products* is very high, women suffer virtually no adverse symptoms of menopause. |
Jonathan Goodman ND
See book keywords and concepts |  In addition, he didn't get much in the way of "live" foods, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, or fish.
Apart from the fact that he wasn't getting a lot of fiber or essential vitamins and minerals, he was also low in EFAs, which come mainly from fish and plant foods.
EFAs in the first place. In addition, supermarket shelves are filled with products that contain processed fats—called hydrogenated fats and trans-fatty acids (TFAs)—which actually interfere with EFA metabolism. |

See book keywords and concepts |  But it's approved as an additive by the FDA and USDA, and is used on fresh fruits, vegetables, meat, poultry, wheat, shell eggs, herbs, spices, and dried vegetable seasonings—and has not yet been proven conclusively safefor human consumption!
Irradiation (a "cold sterilization" process involving gamma rays from nuclear material, x-rays, or high-energy electrons) has been used for many years to kill insects in wheat and flour and control microbial contamination of spices and seasonings, as well as to destroy parasites in meat and poultry—but not without taking its toll. | | At present, these additives are banned from use on fresh fruits and vegetables (with the exception of precut or peeled potatoes that are used, for example, to make French fries or hash browns, and often potato salads in delis). Sulfites are also prohibited from being used on meat because they can restore red color and create a false appearance of freshness—but ingredients treated with sulfites may be added to meat in the preparation of processed foods, such as beef stew. | | Refined sugar Fruit juice, honey, raisins, fresh fruits (apricots, peaches, seedless grapes, strawberries), a dash of pure maple syrup or blackstrap molasses. (If you like blueberries, coat a handful with honey and then add them to your cereal for a fiber bonus and a
1 tablespoon butter taste treat.) CAUTION If you are taking an anticoagulant (blood thinner), don't use blackstrap molasses. It's high in vitamin K and can reverse the effect of your medication. | | The USDA is responsible for inspecting and grading meats, poultry, fresh fruits and vegetables, eggs, and most dairy products. The grading and
Just because spices occur naturally does not mean that they can't harm you. quality marks are based essentially on little more than certain standards of cleanliness necessary for public health safety.
But as inadequate as USDA grading is, it can at least provide you with some indication of a food's quality. |

See book keywords and concepts | | The drugless treatment of skin ailments consists of a short fast on water or fruit juices, cleansing the bowels, frequent bathing with plain warm water, no soap, fresh fruits and vegetables in a balanced diet, correct food combinations, avoiding starches and sugars, short sun-baths (or ultra-violet lamp treatment) and exercise to induce sweating and elimination through the skin.
Although medical doctors frequently advise against bathing, drugless doctors insist on bathing with plain warm water. |
