Final Post on Food? (Probably Not But Some Final Conclusions)
Two false assumptions for people who go vegan:
1. "I can eat anything I want as long as it's vegan.
Assumption 1 is disproven because there can be a vegan that consumes massive amounts of fructose and vegetable/seed oils high in oxidized omega-6.
2. "Ok, well, I can't eat anything I want as a vegan, but I can eat any healthy food I want as a vegan.
Assumption 2 is disproven because many 'healthy foods' are poisonous. Among these poisonous foods are:
– Nut/seeds and nut/seed butters
– Beans/legumes
– All soy products (examples: tofu, soy protein isolate)
– Super concentrated gluten (called seitan)
– Hemp seeds (deserves a separate category; I thought hemp seeds were healthy but they contain way too much omega-6)
– Oats
– Whole grain/whole wheat (massive amounts of glyphosate in the bran)
– Excess fructose
– High PUFA (PolyUnsaturated Fatty Acids) oils like soybean and canola oil
– Anything with caffeine, even in small amounts, such as chocolate
– Others not listed; people can use their own bodies to find out
Regarding nut/seeds and nut/seed butters, even when I started eating animal proteins again, the cashew butter I was eating still placed my body in 'death mode.' (I wasn't even eating that much of it.) Plus, this is how they are harvested:
Sure, nuts/seeds and high fat legumes (peanuts are a legume) can be better if eaten raw and sprouted, but why even mess with it? Mold is usually a major issue with them. Peanut butter, almond butter, and cashew butter have mold that can't be seen.
The oil from a seed works well though, as long as it's low PUFA, such as high oleic sunflower oil. Maybe some chia seeds every now and again would be ok too, as was suggested by a helpful commenter. (Chia seeds have PUFA but it's mostly omega-3, unlike hemp seeds.)
I'm not going completely gluten free, but am including gluten free meals so I'm not just eating bread all the time. If white rice is boiled in enough water and drained, the arsenic is probably reduced to be non-toxic. Nixtamalized cornmeal (sounds like a scary word but it's healthy - long story) makes an excellent cream of corn, or there's polenta. (The cornmeal needs to be non-GMO/organic for it to have much less glyphosate.)
Whatever diet someone chooses, whether vegan, vegetarian, or omnivore, these are my findings after researching and self-experimenting over the last 15 years or so.
The idea is that if someone can get the poisonous substances from food low enough, they can have enhanced strength, endurance, and mental/psychic abilities. Of course such benefits from diet can only be taken so far.
I like to take it to the max.
A couple health tips:
ReplyDeleteIf consuming higher levels of sodium, consume higher levels of potassium to balance the sodium. Same applies to a high potassium diet; increase sodium if potassium is high.
Some say that drinking hot water is very healthy, and yes, this does enhance digestion. However, if one's kundalini is giving them issues, only drinking cold water helps get energies to a 'manageable level.'
I can't find any organic cornmeal that is nixtamalized. So, which is worse - organic non-nixtamalized cornmeal that is lower in glyphosate, or non-organic nixtamalized cornmeal that is higher in glyphosate? AI surprisingly said non-organic, because nixtamalized cornmeal reduces mycotoxins and lectins in corn considerably. One must 'choose between lesser evils.' Corn has always been a tough one to get right.
ReplyDeleteToxin neutralization (aflatoxins, phytates) of cornmeal from soaking for several hours: 10-20%
Toxin neutralization of cornmeal from nixtamalization (alkalizing): up to 90% or more.
Nixtamalization is a complicated process – unfortunately not very feasible to do at home. Cornmeal that's pre-nixtamalized is definitely easiest.
Researching turkey, it really is very high in omega-6, just like bullet proof coffee guys said in his vid that I put up in a previous post. It has over 11.5 times the amount of omega-6 compared with beef. If eating meat, turkey is probably inflammatory if eaten regularly long-term. Beef is much better.
