Linesmen Save Energy

The mid-Atlantic electric company, PEPCO, provided a vegan diet to their linesmen. After the workers took courses provided by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine educating them on healthful food choices, their productivity improved. They worked faster during an electrical outage caused by storms.

Side effects of vegan lifestyles include losing burdensome weight, feeling elated, improved blood flow, and increased energy.

Next stop, PEPCO will share its information with members of the United States Congress.

Milk Does a Body Bad, Too

According to the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, anyone who consumes one glass of milk a day digests the equivalent of twenty toxic pills. Cows are cranked full of painkillers so they won’t think about their lifetime of captivity, antibiotics so the farmers aren’t bothered with keeping them healthy and growth hormones that crush the cows’ bones and eventually cause them to collapse under the pressure to produce, produce, produce.

It’s not just cows that get pumped full of chemicals. Goats and sheep throughout Europe receive the same treatment. However, cows are given the highest doses.

No wonder modern medicine can’t heal man’s diseases easily. Our bodies gradually adapt to the chemicals, making prescribed doses less effective. Not to mention, the negative effects a lifetime of being injected with chemicals a healthy man avoids has on the standard of living of milk-producing livestock.

Be Fit Forever

Processed foods lack nutrients, minerals and vitamins. Despite the high number of calories digested by eating processed foods, your body responds as if you are starving to death. Regardless of the reasons why you are undernourished, your hunger is increased while your metabolism peters. Your body stores fat while your brain sends messages for you to consume more sugar and fats.

Fruits and vegetables provide nutrients without excess fats and calories. Instead of considering your current state of health, focus on becoming healthy forever. Attaining a fit forever goal requires planning your diet.

Suggestions include, recording your food intake and recognizing any poor eating habits. Tracking the value of your meals by learning the density of nutrients.

Knowledge of which foods have the highest nutrient/calorie ratio alleviates any stress or mistakes when selecting foods.

A free e-book is currently available that includes the information and charts that removes the mystery of eating. Twelve steps pave a path to becoming fit forever.

Unfit for Consumption

Don’t eat that meal you planned, just yet.

You might be about to consume industrial pollutants called dioxin and increase your chances of the following health issues:

1. cardiovascular disease

2. diabetes

3. early menopause

4. endometriosis

5. early menopause

6. reduced testosterone and thyroid hormones

7. altered metabolism and immune responses

8. skin, tooth, and nail abnormalities

9. exposure during pregnancy can result in altered thyroid, brain, immune system, and reproductive organ development

The Environmental Protection Agency declared dioxins as the carcinogens that are “the most toxic compound synthesized by man.” EPA reestablished safety guidelines for toxic chemical exposure to consumers.

Industry leaders, including the National Chicken Council and the American Meat Institute protested against the consumer limitations on grounds their products would arbitrarily become classified as unfit for consumption. They refuse to warn consumers about dioxins levels in their foods for fear they will scare people and due to the significant negative economic impact it will have on food producers.

The Food and Drug Administration stated that dietary animals fats provide more than 95% of the dioxin exposure to consumers. Digesting meat, eggs and dairy from one single meal puts one’s health at risk. Young children are most susceptible to exceeding safe dioxin levels.

According to Michael McGregor, M.D., in Dioxins in the Food Supply, fish has the most toxic levels. (Farmed Fish vs. Wild-Caught, The Problem with Organic Salmon, Is Distilled Fish Oil Toxin-Free?, and Hair Testing for Mercury).

Eggs are the second worst source. ( Food Sources of PCB Chemical Pollutants).

Dairy comes in at number three. The National Cheese Institute and International Ice Cream Association are openly opposed to the EPA dioxin limitations.

Too Chicken to Kill

The lifestyle and methods of executing chickens has been debated for decades. Everyone’s heard about chicks being raised in confined quarters, having to stand all their lives on wires and eating food mixed with their feces. Don’t forget the steroids and antibiotics pumped into the fellows.

Since many consumers aren’t concerned about the health risks of consuming chickens, the issue of their execution is questioned.

PETA argues death by electric immobilization is cruel treatment. To support their cause, Andy Dick wore a Ronald McDonald costume to a PETA protest in Chicago. PETA is seeking for chickens to be killed with a Controlled Atmosphere method that suffocates the already abused chickens so they can lose consciousness prior to dying.

As a spokesperson for the Humane Society International, Kesha, contacted the MacDonald’s corporation in the United States and made the following inquiry:

“Please explain why you won’t listen to your company’s own advisory panel and follow the lead of McDonald’s in Europe by switching to the modern method that would spare chickens killed for McNuggets from having their legs and wings broken, having their throats slashed while they’re still conscious, and being scalded to death in de-feathering tanks.”

Kesha offered to donate some of her money to update their slaughter practices, while pointing out MacDonald’s is in a better financial position to make the change independently.

On a roll, Kesha also questioned the restaurant, Skinner, about its billion dollar investment for improvements, with no money contributed to updating the slaughter practices.

Ryan Gosling approached the US Department of Agriculture and requested a revision in the standards for killing chickens to require the less traumatic method of suffocation. Currently, the approved methods are 15 minutes of choking, strangling, smothering, or burying them alive.

Ryan pointed out, “If dogs and cats were killed in this way, the person committing these acts would be charged with cruelty to animals.”

Tobey Maguire Declines Leather

Back in the day, vehicles came equipped with cloth seats that didn’t turn fire-hot under the mid-day sun. Now, in our age of technology and high consumer demands, pretty much every car seems to slaughter a few cows for hides to paste on every surface.

Unless, that is, it is owned by Tobey Maguire. When provided a complimentary Mercedes as part of his contract for starring in The Great Gatsby, Tobey insisted his leather seats be replaced with synthetic cloth seats.

Tobey explained, “I don’t eat eggs, or nearly any dairy – no cheese or milk. I do eat honey and a piece of milk chocolate here and there. …I’ve never had any desire to eat meat. In fact, when I was a kid I would have a really difficult time eating meat at all.”

There are more than 247 million registered vehicles in the United States. Where do all the hides come from?

Avoid Cancer

Video lecture by professor T. Colin Campbell Phd, famed Cornell University professor presents overwhelming evidence that man should resist consuming animal proteins. According to Dr. Campbell, flesh foods are the most potent carcinogen man exposes to himself. The high costs for medical care and nutrition can be avoided and health problems alleviated by removing flesh foods from man’s diet.

Recent studies reveal that cancer and diseases are environmental and less genetic. Genes get expressed by nutrition.
