Who are registered dieticians? They belong to associations worldwide that follow the dictates of their US association.
A few years ago that US association was exposed as a totally corrupt, self-appointed organisation, fully funded by food growers and manufacturers of beverages, processed foods and confectionaries, by fast-food companies, by a biotech giant, and indirectly by Big Pharma. After being exposed, they quickly changed their name to the important-sounding Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
The author admits vegetables don’t help lengthen life, but reduce risk if we eat the advised three cupfuls a day from five groups.
Vegetables (and fruit) over millions of years have created defensive compounds that are toxic to animals, pests, viruses, bacteria, mould – and to us. We have oxalic acid in spinach, rhubarb, plums and green and black tea that blocks calcium absorption (brittle bones, osteoporosis) and inflames and can damage kidneys.
What about the health-giving nutrients in vegetables? The heat from even a quick stir-fry destroys 90 per cent of the B vitamins. Health-giving plant compounds – phyto-nutrients – are half-destroyed in a short boil and completely in a longer one.
Raw vegetables have most of their nutrients too tightly locked in their cells. (That’s why cows have two stomachs.) Juicing will release these nutrients, but when juicer blades heat up, they release DNA-damaging chromium and nickel.
One major problem here is the fake “recommended dietary allowances” of micro-nutrients we should consume daily. Many believe these ridiculously low RDAs were concocted to make ordinary foods appear like super-foods and to keep you from reaching robust, medication-free health.
Consider folic acid, one of the three needed B vitamins that protect arteries, prevent birth defects and have many blood-clotting functions. The RDA is 200 millionths of a gram daily. Yet, in a Chinese medical study, 3,000mcg were needed to show reduction in calcium deposits in the carotid arteries.
Vitamin C RDA is 100mg/day. Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant that stops arterial inflammation, which in turn leads to clogging.
Precise bio-resonance tests found that we need 3,000mg/day to fully energise our immune system, plus organic germanium and organic selenium. That’s only if we are well. Animal studies show we would need up to five times that much if sick.
The next problem is that “fresh” supermarket oranges have been measured with zero Vitamin C. Sadly, the dieticians seem so concerned about our Vitamin C intake that they advise not to exceed 2,000mg a day, well below our normal need. Docs and dieticians advise against supplementation with their meaningless “it’s all in your balanced diet” mantra.
