Food Matters? Supplements? Friday Morning Feast 300508

[divinelistener]

I am vegetarian (a personal choice,) I feel fine and am healthy. I haven't been sick in over 3 years.. I stumbled upon your video's and was intrigued.. until you criticized those who are vegan/vegetarian in an un-respectful manner. I am 100% for being healthy and helping the earth, but one thing that may be even more important to humans is respect and tolerance. There is no wrong way to the top of a mountain. Every journey is unique, please be respectful.

Have not met a vegan that has made it past 6 yrs without breaking down, if your doin it your the first i have met. i am 100% with you on what modern agro has done to our soils, but we need to correct our farming methods if we are to survive. Grass fed beef & carbon farming, rotational grazing, with biodiversity are all working from what i have experienced. saving our earth and us. Prior to european settlement their were more herbivores on bio diverse grasslands than there is in america now.

As kurzweil says, aggresive supplementation is necessary until we will be able to change our body for a body 2.0

[origin0balance]

For acute conditions supplementation as with medical intervention is definitely needed for a return to a level of health to be able to go back to whole fresh food, broths, yogurt, kefir, raw eggs etc. Supplementation or drug use does not need to be a lifestyle. Food from health soil not supplements will get the best results for chonic conditions. We will work harder to provide practical steps for change. Keep having fun truth is out their for us to find

I would like to know how many vitamins can you get from an apple you buy in the supermarket.

[origin0balance]

fruit is a very poor choice for vitamins and no i wouldnt by an apple from a super market. The only hope we have is to support the farmers doing it right. Carbon farming with rotational grazing is the fastest way we can heal our planet and ourselves. We need to stop supporting the food processing, packaging, marketing, chemical farming, transporting, retailing giant. Farmer to consumer is the only way out of the mess we have created. WE CAN DO IT:) not going to be easy but it is possible.

Thanks for these good points you make, helpful for americans and others who spend tons of money on "NATURAL" supplements and vitamins. The FOOD MATTERS movie is a sort of viral marketing effort from the supplement and vitamin companies in the US that sell tons of products in the USA !!! SUN PRODUCTS, TWINLAB, etc etc...the vitamin and suplement business is HUGE They are based on the wrong notion that you can't get enough from natural foods. Stop eating cocoa nibs, algae, pollen, please CONGRATS!

Naive and ignorant waffle....If we are designed to eat meat why does our jaw move sideways like all the herbivores on the planet....Learn about acid formation and you will begin to understand some of the reasons why meat is so destructive in the human system but in order to do that you will have to turn off your filters and stop blindly defending your current belief system.

[origin0balance]

the truth will set us all free and its up to all of us to find our own. I would recommend reading weston a price's book online for free just type in Nutrition and Physical Degeneration. It is the only comprehensive connection we have our birthright of health. He actually set out to find vegetarian cultures but no healthy ones existed. It is physiologically impossible to be healthy without animal products thats why all the vegans need supplements. grass fed beef is awesome grain fed will kill you

[pauldringuk]

You need a brain supplement........

[origin0balance]

can you recommend some im having trouble following your logic. Maybe thats what i have been missing. Peace Man

[origin0balance]

We can compensate for a certain period especially if we are like T colin campbell who grew up on a farm and experienced the head start of raw milk and grass fed beef and then go vegan. WE all need Vitamin ADEK2 & B12 you can synthesize this artificially but they do not provide the same as the really thing. No one using modern science, drugs and supplements has studies lasting longer than 100yrs traditional cultures had up to 100000 yrs of tried and tested methods that provided optimal health.

[origin0balance]

despite my smart ass remarks i genuinely want to help the earth and other people and am always willing to look at my ideas and improve upon them. So far though what i am doing for me works really well and everyone that i have coached that take it on board for themselves have had amazing results. It is difficult to get the high quality produce we get there is a massive difference between factory farmed animals and those that are raised in methods that mimic nature.

[origin0balance]

If what you are doing is working document it and share it with the world, dont waste time arguing with me the world is in great need of help from those that have honest true to the soil methods to health:) Post so vids, together we can do this

[origin0balance]

Have you spent time with any natives that kill animals for their own health survival?I value and thank every meal that i consume and support farmers that look after animals giving them a worthy life and existence.I have killed animals for food isnt easy.If you listen to the violence that your expressing to me and think about your relationships you maybe surprised to know that there is a better way than deprivation. Life eats life in a constant & never ending cycle of death and rebirth.

[pauldringuk]

Natives doing it doesn't make it right or necessary.......Explain the sideways motion of the human jaw or the length of our intestinal system in relation to our bodies?

[writerightnow]

Eating organics is the only way we can know that the food was grown by people who care about food at least as much, if not more than about profit. Food production and everything else is about the money here. The people who love the earth are just a very small few.

[writerightnow]

In Sacramento CA, where I live, they are doing aireal spraying of insecticide to combat mozzies. We have white powder on the leaves and grass this summer. We have Red air polution days, reccommending people to not go outdoors. BTW, I saw 3 dead honeybees laying on the ground in diff. places in the last week :-( how can they possibly survive aireal pesticide spraying? There are NO flies here either - SCARY!

[writerightnow]

Im Australian living in California, and I just had this same organics arguement with my Dad who is in Sth Aust. I dont think Australians can even know how the food here in the USA is quite poisoned. They were using DDT here and in Mexico. The vids on Utube of mexican babies born with their brains on the outside of their heads is from pregnant farm workers being exposed to DDT.

I think Australia is more carefull about pesticide use, and the food is safer.
