Liers: Living fuel. I co-developed it with K.C. Craichy, the CEO of Living fuel Inc. The website for Living fuel Inc. is www.LivingFuel.com and we have two versions of it. One is the original, the Super Greens, and then we did another version, because half the people in the country have an aversion to greens. We made a berry version with all-organic, freeze-dried blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and cranberries called Living fuel Super Berry. The ingredients are organic freeze-dried berries and chia, along with rice protein, pea protein, enzymes, and probiotics. |

Hypofuelenemia could be "treated" by injecting high-grade fuel additive into your car to make up for the loss of fuel efficiency. (The high-grade fuel additive, of couse, would be manufactured by Big Pharma.)
Comfort Deficiency Syndrome could be treated with powerful narcotics that take your mind off the bumpy ride. (Never mind the fact that it would also make you a terrible driver. One-third of auto accidents today are already caused by people on medication...)
In all this, the true underlying cause of these problems -- the flat tire -- would be utterly ignored. |

In due time, these carbohydrates are going to slowly get converted into blood sugar, so they're going to give you a steady, slow stream of fuel. fuel to power your brain (remember, your brain runs on blood glucose), fuel for the organs in your body, fuel for the physical movements you need to engage in just to get to work and get to your desk and so on. This is going to be a slow, steady source of fuel. By the way, if you combine it with some healthy oils and some quality proteins at the time of breakfast, then you will further slow the release of sugar into your bloodstream. |

The relationship between exercise and blood glucose is clear: muscles need energy to move, and glucose is a major source of fuel that makes movement possible.
Muscles use three different types of fuel for energy: high-energy phosphates, glucose (the storage form of glucose is known as glycogen), and free fatty acids. Depending on the intensity and duration of exercise, your muscles use different fuel mixtures. For example, if you lift a very heavy weight over your head, you are primarily tapping into the phosphate system. |

We call a thought without the emotional fuel that would bring it to life a wish. While possibly well intentioned, our wishes probably have little effect on our bodies or the world—until we awaken them.
As Figure 7 illustrates, when we marry the thoughts in our minds with the power of the emotions that emanate from our lower energy centers, we create feelings. Thus, a feeling is the union of what we think with the fuel of our love or fear for our thought. And now we have a definition for feelings and a way to understand how they're different from emotions.

This is similar to the fuel in your car's engine. The fuel is burned and the energy released is mostly captured and used to propel your car. A small percentage of the energy produces heat that is mostly discharged into the environment or used to heat the inside of your car on a cold day.
Maintaining an ideal body weight has everything to do with balance. If we consume more calories than our body can burn, excess food will be stored as fat. In fact, even normal weight people store a great deal of energy that they could draw on in a famine situation. |

Avoid sugar and processed carbohydrates as they fuel yeast, helping it to reproduce. Avoid or reduce fruits and avoid fruit juice altogether. Most fruits and all fruits juices are too high in sugar and fuel yeast. Avoid all alcoholic beverages, as the yeast in these drinks feeds the yeast in your system.
Detoxification: Complete a seven-day vegetable juice detoxification fast, supervised by a qualified health practitioner. Drink two juices a day and soup, such as miso and vegetable soup, with plenty of garlic and ginger. After the seven-day detoxification, follow the diet outlined above. |

Nowhere is greenwashing more overhyped than in the ethanol biofuels industry, where gullible consumers are being told that we can simply farm our way out of an oil crisis by -- get this -- converting most of our food into fuel! Ethanol from corn is so energy inefficient that it takes almost exactly one barrel of oil from somewhere else to farm, harvest, process and produce one barrel of oil equivalent energy from corn. In other words, it's just a massive U.S. energy shell game with absolutely no net gain in energy production, but a huge net loss in food production. |

Your muscle must be able to burn a variety of fuels efficiently, and the heart and lungs have to deliver enough oxygen to the muscle so it can burn that fuel.
Vitamin D Helps You Get the Job Done
Muscle mass is directly related to vitamin D as well as other variables, such as adequate protein. The severe vitamin D deficiency of osteomalacia and rickets results in muscle atrophy and weakness. These problems can be so severe that toddlers and adults lose their ability to walk; but replacing vitamin D restores their strength and coordination.
Stamina also is important in workouts. |

What You Need to Know about Blood Sugar
Blood sugar, or glucose, is the principal fuel of the body and the brain. Your body makes glucose by breaking down other types of sugar (such as table sugar), carbohydrates (such as pasta), and protein (such as meat and fish). Fats can serve as an alternate fuel source for most organs.
In nature, sugars and starches are almost always intertwined with fiber, the indigestible part of plants. The fiber in most vegetables and fruits and some whole grains slows the digestion of starches and sugars, leading to a gradual increase in blood sugar. |

However, glucose is the body's primary fuel, so how can you provide that fuel in a form that won't cause unhealthy fluctuations in blood sugar levels? The easy answer ties in with the previous recommendation: eat carbohydrates in the form of whole foods: whole grains, whole-grain products, vegetables, and fruits.
To understand why choosing the right carbohydrates can help keep blood sugar levels more even, let's take a step back and look at carbohydrates as a whole. There are two different types of carbohydrates. |

We've got to fuel our affirmation with the power of our love, as if it's already accomplished, for the new condition to become real in our lives. And this, I believe, is the key to a successful affirmation and what sets one apart from a wish and an empty thought.
Thoughts and Wishes
As noted previously, a thought is simply the image in our minds of what's possible or what could become so in any given situation, from relationships and healing to everything in between. Without the energy of the love or fear that fuels our thought, it has little power and remains just what it is. |
| Feeling Defined
A thought without the emotion to fuel it is just a thought—it isn't good, bad, right, or wrong. By itself, it has little effect on anything and is the imagining of a possibility that remains in the mind: the seed of what could be, suspended in time—harmless, and relatively powerless.
We call a thought without the emotional fuel that would bring it to life a wish. While possibly well intentioned, our wishes probably have little effect on our bodies or the world—until we awaken them. |

It's essential to survival—it provides fuel for the brain; it's required to manufacture proteins; it's what we use to make energy when we need it.
With the help of insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas, glucose is stored in your liver, muscles, and fat cells (think of them as your own internal OPEC) waiting to be converted to fuel as necessary.
The full name of the disease is actually diabetes mellitus—which literally means "passing through honey sweet." One of the first outward manifestations of diabetes is the need to pass large amounts of sugary urine. |

The body's innate intelligence cannot work because there is insufficient fuel to drive the process of healing. It's a bit like having a new Lexus in the driveway that's out of gas?all that intelligent engineering and design go to waste without fuel.
Recall also from chapter 2 that thought directs energy fields. Thought itself exists as subtle electromagnetic energy. You can use different ways of thinking to direct and focus BioEM energies to heal an illness or injury.
With these two concepts, you have two parts of a three-part healing strategy. |

Depending on the intensity and duration of exercise, your muscles use different fuel mixtures. For example, if you lift a very heavy weight over your head, you are primarily tapping into the phosphate system.

He convincingly explores the rather startling ramifications of the end of cheap fuel. However, there's one area where I hope the author is incorrect: the search for alternative energy sources. Kunstler refutes the idea that there are any viable replacements for oil, but I believe we may yet find hope in the search for alternative, renewable energy sources.
Nuclear, solar, wind, cold fusion, gas hydrates and many other areas of alternative energy are discussed in the book, and each one is shown to be inadequate in replacing the loss of fossil fuels that seems inevitable. |

Glucose and Insulin: Brain fuel and Regulator
Although glucose (blood sugar) and insulin are not neurotransmitters, they are essential for normal brain function. Glucose is the principal fuel of brain cells, and insulin regulates glucose levels. The foods you eat influence levels of both glucose and insulin, and their levels affect your moods and your ability to think clearly.
People function at their best when their blood sugar is within a fairly narrow range of glucose levels. The late Emanuel Cheraskin, M.D., D.M. |
