Food For Thought

Throughout history, humanity has used healing properties of science and nature in an attempt to bring curing to the body. In accord with this, here we discusses important products of modern application but of ancient, natural origin. Specifically, the products introduced further below are associated with Schizophrenia and related brain diseases (see Launch Pad above). Before we discuss these all-natural products, we present some medical, natural, and spiritual history of the diagnosis and treatment of mental illnesses and related issues. Humankind has misdiagnosed and mistreated some of these illnesses--but God's care knows nothing but perfection.

        Not too long ago people were institutionalized with mental illness due to the lack of vitamin B1 (thiamine) found in the outer coating of cereal grain, green peas, beans, egg yolk and liver. The disease was later diagnosed as Pellagra. J. I. Rodale's Encyclopedia of Common Diseases, in chapter The Nutritional Approach to Nervous Disorders, states that "Dr. Jolliffe equated the mental symptoms which occur in pellagra (a classical manifestation of thiamin deficiency) with those of most psychoses. They include memory defects, disorientation and confusion. Periods of excitement, depression, mania, delirium and paranoia occur frequently." The significance of the B vitamins are clearly very important and is discussed in the products below..

        Apostle John's personal journal of God's visit to the Island of Patmos is recorded in Revelation, the last book of the New Testament in the Bible. God speaks of a Tree of Life, which births fruit every month for nourishment and yields leaves for healing. God speaks of a time when there will no longer be any curse. (Revelation 22:2 "On each side of the river grew Trees of Life, bearing 12 crops of fruit, with a fresh crop each month; the leaves were used for medicine to heal the nations.")   This is verified in the Old Testament of the Bible. God told Ezekiel (47:12 "All kinds of fruit trees will grow along the river banks. The leaves will never turn brown and fall, and there will always be fruit. There will be a new crop every month-without fail! For they are watered by the river flowing from the Temple. The fruit will be for food and the leaves for medicine.")

    German born Reinhard Bonnke speaks of God healing mankind with His medicinal leaves. ~ Visit www.sidroth.org for Reinhard Bonnke cassette: Cassette code C1287 aired 7/15-19/2002 (or www.cfan.org) Benny Hinn contends that those who have the resurrection Holy Spirit power of God are trees which can feed today's people with God's leaves by taking care of their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs. For instance they can heal the sick and cast out demons. This is what he himself is doing. 14 foundations of the Holy Spirit CD www.bennyhinn.org

     The Book of Enoch in the Pseudepigrapha shares with us, "Fragrant trees encircled the throne. Amongst them was a tree such as I had never yet smelt: neither was any amongst them nor were others like it. It had a fragrance beyond all fragrance and its leaves, blooms and wood wither not for ever. Its fruit resembles the dates of a palm. Then I said, 'Beautiful is this tree and fragrant. Its leaves are fair and its blooms delightful in appearance.' Then answered Michael, one of the holy angels who was with me and was their leader. He said unto me, 'Enoch, why do you ask me regarding the fragrance of the tree and do you wish to learn the truth?' I answered him, 'I wish to know about everything, but especially about this tree.' He answered saying, 'This high mountain, whose summit is like the throne of God, is His throne, where the Holy Great One, the Lord of Glory, the Eternal King, will sit, when He shall come down to visit the earth with goodness. As for this fragrant tree, no mortal is permitted to touch it till the great judgment, when He shall take vengeance on all and bring to its consummation for ever. It shall be given to the righteous and holy. Its fruit shall be for food to the elect. It shall be transplanted to the holy place, to the temple of the Lord, the Eternal King.'"

Actually, in Visions Beyond the Veil (about China) and There is Always Enough (about Africa), the Bakers relate true stories where God visited personally the mission children ages 6-18, baptized them with His Holy Spirit, and took the mission orphans to heaven and allowed them to eat fruit from His trees.
In There Is Always Enough Rolland and Heidi Baker share a vision where Jesus gives a piece of his flesh as food plus some of His blood and water as drink to Heidi to share with her orphans. Later in real life when the Bakers needed to feed hundreds of children with a neighbor's gift of one meal, the meal multiplied in her hands, so that every child was fed. The Bakers learned that Jesus is always enough, because His heart, love, and power is big enough. www.irismin.org

In Miracles in El Paso? Rene Laurentin shares how God multiplies food plus lime for plaster to the impoverished Texas congregation of Father Rick Thomas.

In the awesome Transformations video documentary www.transformnations.com or radio interviews www.sidroth.org we discover that God is multiplying the size, quantity and quality of fish and vegetables in communities where the entire disadvantaged community has turned to Jesus.. In French theologian Rene Laurentin's Miracles in El Paso? ,Texas, America north of Mexico) tamales, apples, squash and grapes magically multiply to feed the poor congregation of Father Rick Thomas per Robert DeGrandis' book The Gift of Miracles. These foods are organic, contamination free, right from the hand of God. Garden of Eden quality.

The Book of Daniel in the Old Testament testifies of the values of eating a Kosher or vegetarian diet. Daniel 1:8-16 NIV states, "Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine. He asked the chief official per permission not to defile himself this way. Now God had caused the official to show favor and sympathy to Daniel. The official told Daniel, 'I am afraid of my lord the king, who has assigned your food and drink. Why should he see you looking worse than the other young men your age? The king would then have my head because of you.' Daniel then said to the guard whom the chief official had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, 'Please test your servants for 10 days. Give us nothing but vegetables to eat and water to drink. Then compare our appearance with that of the young men who eat the royal food. Treat your servants in accordance with what you see.' He agreed to this and tested them for 10 days. At the end of 10 days they looked healthier and better nourished than any of the young men who ate the royal food, so the guard took away their choice food and the wine they were to drink and gave them vegetables instead."

Remember John the Baptist? He lived solely on raw honey and locusts. Raw honey contains the dust of propolis and royal jelly. Raw royal jelly contains all the B vitamins. It is the lack of specific B vitamins which cause/contribute to numerous diseases, especially the psychiatric illnesses. B1 cures beriberi, B2 may help Parkinson's disease mobility, B3 cures pellagra and reduces nervousness (especially in schizophrenia), B6 taken AM helps lift depression and reduce pyroluria, B9 (folic acid) prevents spina bifida, B12 helps remediate dementia and may lessen migraines, and inositol helps reduce hair pulling.

    Roger J Williams, chemistry professor, founder Clayton Foundation Biochemical Institute, discovered vitamin B5 (panothenic acid) and many vitamin related discoveries. He developed Genetotrophic disease theory saying deficiencies in our microenvironment result in disease (especially psychiatric). http://orthomolecular.org/history/index.shtml

        Mother Nature has provided us food and medicine since Adam and Eve. All tribes use their native plants for food and healing. Most modern medicine uses all, part of, or a synthetic copy of living plants. The Patent Office does not allow natural plants to be patented. Thus it is not profitable for Drug companies to research plants, unless key plant ingredients can be copied, patented and manufactured.

        Science gains daily insight into the wonders that have existed since the birth of life. A wonderful 6/14/02 Wall Street Journal Science Journal article by Sharon Begley explains how "ingredients in food that we eat"--as well as stress, salt, or temperature-- turn human genes on or off. (The article's author can be reached at sciencejournal@wsj.com.)

There has been much wonderful research into the cause and cure of Schizophrenia.
Linus Pauling, the American chemist and Nobel prize winner, is recognized as a forerunner in Orthomolecular Medicine and in using intravenous vitamin B prior the manufacture of reliable vitamin B capsules. Another father in Orthomolecular Medicine is Canadian Dr. Abram Hoffer who uses vitamin B3 as his main therapy in the healing of Schizophrenia. Hoffer's 1998 book (Vitamin B-3 & Schizophrenia) supports his personal experience that, yes, schizophrenia (1) can be helped and (2) in a significant number of cases can be healed. The Pfeiffer Treatment Center (www.hriptc.org) is noted for its Orthomolecular Therapy for psychiatric healing. You can see for yourself the testimony of healings from mental illness on a video program hosted by Margot Kidder, who was healed of bipolar (Kidder is most recognizable as the actress who played Lois Lane in the movie Superman ). Both Hoffer's book and Kidder's video may be requested from www.orthomed.org. There are many modalities of healing, but Orthomolecular Therapy is one of the most exciting and is available to every lay person. 1/03 Life Extension magazine www.lef.org features Abram Hoffer MD, PHD, Alberta, Canada.

Next comes structure such as volunteer work. (Vitamins might be taken with each of the 3 daily meals.) Then comes part time work. (Vitamins might be taken when meals are eaten at home.) Then comes full time work. (Vitamins might be taken breakfast, supper and bedtime on week-days.) As normal life resumes so does confidence in oneself and confidence that the many vitamins and medications do in fact help.

There are many wonderful vitamins that are of great value to schizophrenia, but B3 is significant. B3 is to schizophrenia as flax seed is to bi-polar. Vitamins are not the only source of B3. Macadamia nuts, for instance, are legumes rich in niacin, according to the July 2003 issue of Delicious Living magazine. www.deliciousliving.com Mother nature provides many sources of vitamin B 3 in food such as: brewer's yeast, rice bran wheat, bran; liver of lamb, pork, calf & chicken; white chicken meat, trout, halibut, mackerel, heart of veal & beef, salmon, veal, lean lamb, sesame and sunflower seeds, lean beef & pork, pine nuts, red chili peppers, barley, herring, almonds, and split peas (shown in the order of benefit) per SOMA Health, Australia. Sprouted seeds/beans provide superior nutrients. Sprouted soy beans provide significant amounts of riboflavin, niacin (B3), and ascorbate (vitamin C) per 4th quarter 2005 Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine www.orthomed.org

The suggested following 3-year schedule for Niacin (B-3) may be helpful. You may want to have a local orthomolecular doctor work with you to optimize your vitamin selection, purchasing and medications. Some pharmacists and some health food stores are also very good resources. We recommend that one take a very small B-complex vitamin AM and noon, but not PM. Vitamin B-6 contributes to nightmares. In 2004 Journal of Orthomolecular J E Prouksy recommends between 2-8 grams niacinamide (non flush niacin) daily or highest dose that does not cause nausea, as an "anti-anxiety" remedy. B3 converts to tryptophan to serotonin. (1,000 mg = 1 g) www.orthomed.org (DANGER - If the below schedule works for you, then maintain it after you have reached your limit. NEVER abruptly increase/stop any vitamin or medication schedule. Always SLOWLY titer down/off your supplements/meds, if need to reduce or get off your regimen.)

For neurodegenerative disorders, Dr Blaylock recommends that, in addition to niacinamide (a non-flush niacin; regular (flushing) niacin releases histamine, which dilates the face blood vessels per Lesser's The Brain Chemistry Diet), we also add CoQ10, acetyl-L carnitine (to increase brain acetylcholine ), riboflavin, methylcobalamin and thiamine supplements. For mitochondrial diseases he recommends phosphotidyl serine, ginkgo biloba, folate, magnesium and vitamins B12 + K. (It is also wise to check to see if inositol is included with your B supplement. If not, it would be wise to add it to your B regime to protect the liver. Pure Encapsulations does a ratio of 23% insoitol to 77% B3 + 21% vitamin C.)
Dr Russell Blaylock authored Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills www.hacres.com or www.webworker.com/profiles/display_excitoxins.html He recommends that we remove from our diet: sodas, junk and processed foods (including soups and gravies) as they contain dangerous excitotoxins (aspartame, MSG, hydrolyzed vegetable protein, soy protein extract, natural flavoring, spices, yeast extract, textured protein) which have been snuck into our diets to alter and enhance food taste. These additives, delightful to our taste, in fact poison our brains. Food is becoming dangerous for one's health. There is much merit in eating organic. (It would be advantageous for Americans to watch the movie Food Inc.)

Williams, David G Unabridged Library of Medical Lies 2007 paperback volume indicates that tobacco nicotine stimulates the body's production of the neuro-transmitter acetyl-choline as does niacin (B3/nicotinic acid) a cousin of nicotine. Obviously, B3 is the healthy choice, but one can see why many ill people crave/smoke cigarettes for the acetylcholine (as well as for the addictive properties of the nicotine).

A popular American movie, A Beautiful Mind, shows the healing of the Schizophrenic mind of John F. Nash, Jr. To help in his recovery Nash uses the method of ignoring the voices and perceptions that come to his mind. This method is great, but such insight usually comes after years in the school-of-hard-knocks+the additional use of medications, vitamins, and other wonderful alternative resources--including God.

Vitamin B is not the only important "B" out there, there's also our pesky friend the bumble bee. These bees produce five all-natural and all-important products: royal jelly, propolis, pollen, honey, and venim. Bumble bees produce royal jelly (a gland secretion), propolis (from plant resins) and bee pollen (from flower pollen). All bee products have values such as vitamins, minerals, enzymes, hormones, amino acids, plus antibacterial, antibiotic, antihistamine, and anti-inflammatory components.

* The 'magic' power of the bee product royal jelly is that of acetylcholine, brain food - food for thought. Dr. James Balch, author of Prescription for Nutritional Healing, explains that royal jelly "is the only natural source of acetylcholine" which is needed for brain thinking (p. 44). (Webster's dictionary cites another source of medicinal acetylcholine as the ergot fungus. This cereal source should not be eaten as it has the potential to cause gangrene, psychotic episodes, and/or death.) All bumble bee products are live foods. (One source of non-freeze dried royal jelly is: www.beealive.com . Check out their Pure & Natural raw fresh formula - straight from Mother Nature.)
7/2006 manuka honey newsletter helps to clarify what nutrition is in unprocessed raw royal jelly. Reminder, processed royal jelly does not contain the same nutrition, for royal jelly is very perishable/fragile. http://www.manukahoneyusa.com/

* Propolis is used as an antibiotic and is called Russian penicillin.

* Dr. James Balch says pollen contains 35 percent protein (one-half of all the amino acids) and is considered to be a complete food. Holley Bishop in Robbing the Bees extols pollen's nutrition, relating that compared to 1 pound of sirloin beef, 1pound of pollen has - the same 100 grams of protein, 957 more mg of calcium, 159 more mg vitamin C than steak at 0, twice the potassium, plus lots more vitamin A, thiamin, riboflavin and niacin than steak.
www.ysorganic.com says that bee pollen contains all essential food elements including 22 amino acids.

* Unstrained raw honey will frequently contain both pollen and propolis. A good story to reflect on is the one cited in the Bible (Mark 1:6) where Zechariah's son John subsisted on solely raw honey and locust (beans) while living in the desert. With raw honey, no 4 food groups are needed because unstrained raw honey has it all.

In closing, do not forget the power of honey bee venom, which ameliorates many autoimmune diseases, especially multiple sclerosis. (Bee sting video: www.olg.com/beelady ) Be reminded that mental illness is considered by some to be an autoimmune disease. Be blessed by our sweet stinging bumble bee.

Sampling of local and organic bee products such as freshly frozen raw bee pollen http://www.bostonhoneycompany.com/Our_Products.html
Careful. Some individuals are allergic to bee products. Begin SLOWLY with ALL bee products. A LITTLE will go a LONG way.
A LITTLE bee pollen dab will do ya! Pollen is a PERFECT "garnish" for the popular grape-nuts cereal; neither your finicky child nor your mother-in-law would notice!

Want a child genius? Eat egg yolks during your pregnancy and feed egg yolks to your baby as soon as your doctor allows. Yup. Egg yolks even help Alzheimer brains. The 'magic' ingredient is Phosphatidyl Choline (PC). Real food (not produced in a factory) gives real nutritional benefits, regardless of the fear doctors instill in us from childhood regarding such issues as cholesterol from egg yolks. Of course, it is wise to eat organic eggs or free range chicken eggs or omega 3 oil eggs. (Lecithin contains PC and may be taken as an alternative supplement.) PC acts as a supplier of Choline needed for the brain neurotransmitter acetylcholine (mentioned above in the bumble bee paragraph). Acetylcholine really and truly helps our brains function correctly. Eva Edelman in Natural Healing for Schizophrenia Choline www.boragebooks.com notes that acetylcholine (ach) was the first neurotransmitter to be identified and is made through the acetylation of choline. The more choline in the diet, the more acetylcholine is formed. Choline by itself without the Phosphatidyl group can be found in soybeans, liver, oatmeal, avocado, salmon, potatoes, oats, brewer's yeast, some legumes, some whole grains, cabbage and cauliflower and will contribute to a lesser degree the beneficial effects on the functioning of the brain. Mother Nature is a good provider for her children. Imagine, bumble bees and chickens can provide such gourmet meals, for free.

There are two anti-anxiety nutrition supplements which are quite valuable in schizophrenia treatment. First, Stabilium (Garum Armoricum) (www.ehot.com/smartbasics/relieve.html) is a fish extract. When taken it has a mild, long-term, anti-anxiety effect, reduces mood swing and melancholy, plus increases sleep and stamina. Second, PS (Phosphorylated Serine) is an adaptogen and adrenal support, which is vital and valuable for stress reduction. We recommend both lunch and dinner supplementation in addition to Stabilium prior to breakfast. If one is having difficulty sleeping then he or she may want to add PS to his bedtime meds.

Dr George Watson in 1972 published Nutrition and Your Mind: The Psychochemical Response showing his case studies of cured mentally ill patients including schizophrenics. Diabetics evaluate the level of blood sugar. Watson evaluates the speed at which tissues break down food to create energy. His patients he labeled as fast food oxidizers, slow food oxidizers or sub food oxidizers.

For his patients tending towards catatonia (lethargy and dullness) and sometimes having female premenstrual symptoms he prescribed 12 daily supplements that assist enzyme systems and participate in breakdown of glucose to pyruvate and o-acetate, which is weakness of the slow oxidizer, where blood sugar is too high and body is having trouble burning it =

1           00.6 mg    Copper Gluconate
2           30     mg    Manganese Oxide
3/4/5     30     mg    Vitamin B1, B2, B6
6           75     mg    Para-amino-benzoic Acid
7           75     mg    Niacin
8         200     mg    Ferrous Sulfate
9         300     mg    Magnesiusm Chloride
10        900    mg    Ascorbic Acid
11        900    mg    Potassium Citrate
12     7,500     mg   Vitamin D

When "negative" schizophrenic symptoms begin or severe stress occurs, immediately restrict diet to mostly high carbohydrate (sugar and starch), low fat and low protein diet. One may include in his diet foods with low Purine content: skim milk, cheese, butter, eggs, and fruit to insure sufficient protein intake.
                                                                   ++++++++

However, for the fast oxidizer (who is slow in the production and utilization of acetate), Dr Watson prescribes the following 13 daily supplements that assist the enzyme systems of the person with a hyperactive (positive) schizophrenia diagnosis :

A high purine intake as well as a high protein intake is mandated during relapses or times where one is aware of beginning symptoms. It is important to eat high purine food 3x a day. Purine is a principal source of acetate. Acetate contains Vitamin B5 (pathothenic acid), in the absence of which the acetate level of the cells decreases sharply. The fast oxidizer is not producing enough acetate. The Slow oxidizer is producing enough, but is not able to turn it into energy. Foods high in nucleoproteins yielding the purine adenine are:

The high purine, high protein diet is also advisable for a third type of less severely affected individual, the suboxidizer, whose diet, when corrected, can function better, on a day to day basis. The following supplements are recommended for this individual.

FOR MENTAL ILLNESS, WHAT YOU EAT MAY BE WHAT YOU ARE. THAT IS EXCELLENT, IF IN FACT, YOU CAN CURE YOURSELF, ONE BITE AT A TIME. .

Try to find an MD or pharmacist who will work with you to prevent medication interactions, excess dosages and inferior quality product purchases.
(A large oversize weekly pill container allows for 4 large servings of pills per day.)

*Acetyl Choline for the brain is only found raw and organic as royal jelly in bee hives. www.beealive.com

Alcohol craving - (Liquor desire/consumption may indicate a need for organ meats, per George Watson in Nutrition and Your Mind)

*Aloe Vera (Increases oxygen to brain. Grow your own and eat inside pulp of leaves. Add to salad dressings or to drinks/spreads mixed in your blender.
(A little bit will go a long way. Use sparingly, unless you like the flavor.)
11/13/05 Boston Globe's www.parade.com cites aloe vera's gel as a practical coating for fruits and vegetables. It keeps food fresher 5x longer, keeps in moisture plus keeps out bacteria and molds, without affecting flavor.

Alpha-Lipoic Acid - repairs the damaged liver according to Dr Burt Berkson (cassette 010503-090 at Nutritional Medicine Today conference 1-905-889-6555) Liver protection is needed from the antipsychotic drugs and for any medication taken.

Bananas and chicken contribute to serotonin levels.
Contain amino acid L-tryptophan, which may help sleep if taken PM.
Bananas are also high in potassium.

Betaine (TMG) or trimethylglycine converts bad amino acid homocysteine into beneficial "methionine to reduce high histamine levels" [SAM-e, B12, B3, B6 and folic acid also convert homocysteine to methionine per Meiser and Anderson in Overcoming Senior Moments. Notice, homocysteine is not the word histamine. DANGER, please refer to "Methionine" below. Foods high in TMG are spinach (raw), beets and broccoli (sprouts)].

Borage Oil - Omega 3 oils. Blue Borage Blossoms (add to your salad) (Include annually in your herb garden.) Excellent for depression.

Boron - Dr Neilson discovered that boron causes estradiol 17B to double.
Women are advised to eat dates, grapes, raisins, beans, almonds, honey
per Reese Dubin in Miracle Food Cures From the Bible www.phdirect.com

Co-Q10 - (brain antioxidant + energy - 100 mg +) (Always take if on Satan drugs)

DHA (docosoHexenoic acid) - omega 3 fatty acid from algae or cold water fish - 100 mg 3x day

*Flax Seed - (Good on peanut butter sandwich. In summer sprinkle on ice cream)
Excellent for depression. (Try grinding seeds in your coffee grinder.)

*Flax Seed Oil - (add to dressing on your salad)
(To prevent cancer add to cottage cheese or yogurt.)

Folic Acid (part of vitamin B complex - add extra for women, especially if you are pregnant. Check to see if you have high or low histamine levels. Folic acid helps low histamine schizophrenic but harms high histamine schizophrenic person.)

Galantamine - phytonutrient extracted from the common snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis), daffodil (Narcissus pseudonarcissus L.), and spider lily (Lycoris radiata), among other plants. (Danger - use in small amounts. May cause vomiting. May help Alzheimers.)

*Ginkgo Bilboa - (240 mg 3x day for short term memory)
(Danger, is a blood thinner) (Grow your own tree!)
This is one vegetable leaf that many doctors recommend.

[Grapefruit juice can increase absorption of some medicines. 3/19/04 www.nelhsf.com
300 mg Clozaril is considered by some to be a minimum effective dose for a female with schizophrenia.
Perhaps consistently taking grapefruit with medications would help keep one at a minimum dose.
One would never want to apply this theory until medications and health have been stabilized and until one is working in close medical supervision with a professional AND a relative or friend.]

Histidine (an amino acid) can help some schizophrenics while harming other schizophrenics per Erdmann's The Amino Revolution and per Edelman's Natural Healing for Schizophrenia. edelman@boragebooks.com www.boragebooks.com Take for "low histamine (Histapenia)".
Warning. Avoid copper, methionine and Sam-e. Be sure to have your histamine levels checked.
L-Carnosine consists of amino acids beta-alanine plus L-histidine.

HRT (hormone replacement treatment) cream before, during and after menopause.
Need prescription to be compounded by pharmacist.
There is also a testosterone cream for men (over age 50) from urologists.

Kombucha organic raw beverage - contains folic acid, vitamin B1,B2,B3,B6,B12, lactobacillus bacterium, L-theanine, glucuronic acid, lactic acid, and usnic acid. www.gtskombucha.com
Original flavor tastes like mild vinegar, so can add to olive oil and use as a salad dressing.
Other available products add other fruits such as grape or lemon, to help flavor.

L-Carnosine (amino acids beta-alanine + L-histidine for neurological degeneration and brain circulatory deficit. See note above on Histidine.)

Medicinal Mushrooms - (First, check to see if you have high or low histamine levels - IMPORTANT) Reishi (ganoderma lucidum) mushroom is high in B vitamins. It inhibits the release of histamine. It is also know for its adaptogenic properties. Shiitake (lentinus edodes) mushroom is also high in B vitamins.

Methionine - An amino acid known as Sam-e helps "high histamine (histadelia)" person but harms low histamine schizophrenic person. Look for the 1,4-dibutane sulfanate form of Sam-e which is more stable and less expensive, per Michael Lesser MD, Berkley, California in The Brain Chemistry Diet. Methionine should be taken at supper/dinner time with Magnesium, B6, B12, folic acid, calcium around 5PM, after work and not at bedtime.
Warning. Avoid histidine and folic acid.

Pectin can be found in the canning section of your grocery store. One can add the dry powder to Jell-O powder. Add hot water and mix with an electric egg beater to blend. Hand beating will not work. Adding a can of coconut milk may help the flavor. Citrus pectin is from the thick outer pulp of citrus fruit. One can eat the white of the citrus fruit (skin) instead of buying powdered pectin. The next best bet is a supplement called modified citrus pectin, which seems to be very effectuous against disease.

PhosPhatidylSerine (PS) - (100 mg 4x day) for memory and stress. Is found in egg yolks.
As a supplement take with low dose magnesium and calcium, especially at bedtime or before doing school homework.

Pumpkin seeds - Excellent for men.
Take as bedtime snack as high in amino acid L-tryptophan, which may help sleep.

*Raw Royal Jelly
(nature's only natural acetylcholine, essential for brain)
This is God's gift to you (unless you are allergic to bees). www.beealive.com

Spring Water - Drink often, especially in the hot weather. Reduce intake at bedtime. Penta water is touted to be a superior but very expensive bottled water. Gatoraide is used to stabalize elolytes, especially in the summer for those who sweat a lot working outdoors. Soda, especially diet soda, is very harmful to the brain. Avoid soda, especially diet soda that contains aspartame (which converts to formaldehyde to formic acid and causes metabolic acidosis per Meiser and Anderson in Overcoming Senior Moments).
Some advocates prefer distilled spring water. Add a slice of fresh lemon or lime.

Vitamin B1 (Can take for Catatonia, as part of vitamin B complex) volume 7 #6 Healthy Living quotes Reader's Digest WWII story of soldiers cured of beriberi (Vitamin B1 deficiency) after eating coconuts as islanders did www.freedompressonline.com
Vitamin B1 also helps repel insects during the hot summer months.

*Vitamin B 3 (Work up to 4 times a day, SLOWLY increasing dosage as tolerated. When away working, can eliminate lunch dosage.)

Many flower blossoms are full of nutrition. Toss into salads. (Sweet pea, nasturtium, violet, borage, valerian, marigold)

Nelson, Dennis Food Combining Simplified
D. Nelson, PO Box 2302, Santa Cruz, California 95063, USA
Author contends that foods should be grouped/eaten separately due to issues of digestion time/enzymes/decomposition. Food groups = acid fruit, sub-acid, sweet fruit, melon, low/non-starchy vegetables, starches, fats, or proteins.

Colbin, Annemarie www.amazon.com Food and Healing book
AnneMarie is founder of New York's Natural Gourmet Cookery School and Institute for Food and Health. What is unique is her food pyramid (5 groups).
(1) Complex-carbohydrate group consists of whole grain cereals + tubers. = Eat most
(2) Protein group consists of dried beans and peas or animal protein.
(3) Vitamin/mineral group consists of (a) green vegetable leaves, (b) roots and squash, (c) sea vegetables (dulse, Irish moss, agar, kelp, hiziki), (d) nightshades (potatoes, tomatoes, eggplant, peppers) with dairy , (e) fruit, (f) general (broccoli, cauliflower) + (onions, leeks, scallions).
(4) Fermented Lactobacillus group (pickles, sauerkrout, miso, tempeh) + optional fermented milk products (yogurt). (One can add ume plum vinegar to salads or drink as a cordial/liqueur ume/umeshu plum wine for dessert, to stabilize the intestinal PH balance.)
(5) Optional occasional fun foods (junk food, milk, cheese, alcohol, chocolate, sugar) = Eat least.
Additionally she encourages one to eat very SLOWLY.
(Organic is always a wise choice.)

Eating Kosher http://www.copperwiki.org/index.php/Kosher_Food
"The Torah states that one who consumes non-kosher food is infected by an unclean spirit, the health benefits of kosher foods cannot be ignored. As kosher laws strictly dictate how animals are to be fed, killed and processed, kosher food remains a safe choice even among the non-Jews, especially in view of repeated cases E. coli and mad cow disease."
The minimum spiritual rule is to say out loud (or whisper) grace before meals!
Jesus allowed converts to Messianic Judaism to eat most anything except blood and strangled animals. Nowadays this could still present a problem to some Irish who sometimes serve "blood sausage." There are 2 strikes against this food. 1st the blood and next the source, if it is pork. Nowadays chefs/restaurants are calling non-kosher shellfish such as lobster and raw clams (often containing worms), delicacies. Shellfish are bottom feeders, that is they feed on the earth's pollution. Allegiance to tradition should NEVER come before one's allegiance to God. God allowed Peter to eat non-kosher food when he visited Cornelius. First, let us read God's book, the Bible, and then obey it to the best of our ability. Again, the minimum spiritual rule is to say out loud (or whisper) grace before meals!
