See book keywords and concepts |  Being creatures of the Earth, we were designed to live in a natural environment. Being deprived of sunlight for long periods of time each day, therefore, poses a significant health risk. | | If they are cultivated, too, removed from their natural environment and climatic conditions, their medicinal properties become less potent; thus, they are less effective as a medicine. Many of them no longer have medicinal values and they are now merely used in cooking to flavor the food.
The Grain Food Mystery
If you give pigs too much grain in their feed, their growth rate is retarded. By contrast, the same grains fed to cattle ferment in their stomachs without a problem. | | Yet creating balance is not something you will need to do just once in your life, rather it is an ongoing process that allows your body and mind to function in perfect coordination and harmony with each other and the natural environment. A life of balance will equip you with the ability to joyfully and passionately meet the constantly increasing challenges of our time, endowed with the tools of physical and mental strength, creativity and wisdom.
The factors that could possibly disrupt your health have increased tremendously within the relatively short period of the past several decades. |

See article keywords and concepts |  If you take an animal from a natural environment, fed raw plants, raw grasses, live foods, without it being subjected to antibiotics and hormones or inhumane methods of slaughter, that meat will be much healthier for you than traditionally raised beef. Still, there's no denying that this is a terrible experience for the animal. The animal is still being killed and eaten. This is not the kind of experience that any of us would wish to endure, and yet we require this of other animals so that we may feed ourselves in a mindless way the foods that we prefer to consume. |

See article keywords and concepts |  Traditional herbalists -- whether they're Native American, Aborigine, Australian, South American, Incan, Mayan or from any other culture -- would ask plants for permission when they harvested them from the natural environment. They would thank the plant when they took its leaves, roots, or flowers, or rhizomes. Today our corporations say, "We own the planet, and we'll take what we want. We'll punish anybody else who tries to grow this plant because we own its intellectual property. |

See book keywords and concepts | | With their immune systems impaired by large amounts of these man-made, acid-forming foods and the chemical additives they contain, children barely stand a chance of fighting off the normally harmless germs that are part of our natural environment.
The situation is worsened if children haven't been breastfed long enough to build up their natural immunity. Many infants are still being fed commercial formulas, and these contain rancid (oxidized) cholesterol which results from the milk-drying process. |

See book keywords and concepts |  It was a good, stable situation, the kind that promoted a healthy planet, in terms of both the natural environment and the people themselves and their freedom. No wonder Costa Rica was the most democratic of all the Central American countries. Its rain forest was also in the best shape.
Ginger and turmeric mingled with wild gotu kola, a valuable circulatory-health herb growing amid smooth pebbles and small boulders. |

See article keywords and concepts |  We evolved in this natural environment and these are the foods that have been available to our ancestors for hundreds of thousands of years. They didn't have to be standardized; no one went up to an orange tree and found the nutrition facts labeled and said, "How much vitamin C, calories, sugars, carbohydrates and fiber does this orange have?" They just pulled it off the tree and ate it, and that's essentially all you need to do for balanced nutrition. Trust in nature.
Your body was designed to survive and thrive in the natural environment; otherwise, you wouldn't even exist today. |

See book keywords and concepts | | This intricate mechanism ensures that all physical functions are synchronized with the rhythmic changes that occur in the natural environment. This is known as "entrainment." The health of each cell in the body depends, therefore, on the degree to which we allow the body to be in synchrony and harmony with the cycles of day and night.
Any deviation from the circadian rhythm causes abnormal secretions of the hormones melatonin and serotonin. |

See book keywords and concepts |  This meant that every aspect of the natural environment that was available to the senses was also represented in the body, in one or another of the five viscera. The parallels between the Chinese system and its analogues in classical and medieval European medicine, and in India's Ayurvedic texts, are remarkable. European doctors likewise associated body parts and organs to particular seasons, star signs, and elements, and the five great Hindu elements are indivisible from aspects of the body and objects of the senses. |

Did You Know?
We normally associate the use of hormones with humans or livestock farming, but even plants are now receiving synthetic or genetically engineered hormones. Cycocel"'7 is a synthetic hormone applied to wheat to produce thicker and longer stems. Researchers are also looking into manipulating the wheat's natural hormones to control germination and also to produce plants that can withstand cold weather. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Similar to bacteria that are attacked with antibiotics, many cells, in fact, succumb to the poison attack and die, but some manage to adjust to the abnormal changes of their natural environment. The cells know that they will eventually die, too, once their final survival tactics fail to keep the body alive.
To understand cancer and more successfully treat it than we currently do, we may have to radically alter our currently held views about it. We may also have to ask what its purpose is in the body and why the immune system fails to stop it from spreading. |

See article keywords and concepts |  This is an astounding realization, and it just goes to show you the innate healing potential of the human body when it is able to work in conjunction with the natural environment.
It's also interesting to note that your body automatically produces just the right amount of vitamin D. If you get more sunlight than you need, you cannot overdose on vitamin D. Your skin will produce only what's needed, and no more. |
Michael Friedman, ND
See book keywords and concepts |  We can lose iodine from these aggressive halides; our bodies have no known mechanisms for dealing with relatively large amounts of fluorides, chlorine, and bromine, since these substances are normally too reactive to be available in the so-called natural environment; our exposure is totally modern. Gaseous chlorine is regularly released from shower and tub water freshly drawn from water supply taps. We are exposed to bromine in pesticides, dough conditioners, and disinfectants for water in hot tubs and commercial spas. |

See book keywords and concepts |  In fact, the vast majority of eggs available at grocery stores come from environments where chickens are not given free-range access to the natural environment. The question to you is this: do you really wish to eat substances produced by animals that have been driven insane?
There's more to it than just that, by the way. Chicken farmers use a substance laced with arsenic in order to control parasites. |

See article keywords and concepts |  You win, the people around you benefit, the rainforest benefits, the native populations in Peru benefit by being able to earn an honest living by harvesting native plants in their natural environment, and you also win by sharing the energy and intention of healing at many levels.

If you're out there reading this and you don't know if the Amazon Herb product line or business opportunity is right for you, then keep reading (and remember, I am not involved with this company in any way, so this is not some clever solicitation). |
David Wolfe
See book keywords and concepts |  Wild plant foods make you strong and robust and put you "in tune" with your local natural environment.
If you cannot get wild food, or it is impractical, please eat organic. You deserve it. You are worth it! You and your family are worth more than anything on Earth; give your family the best fuel possible. The organic farmers also deserve your support for not spraying pesticides (poisons) on the Earth. If you have to pay twice as much or more for organic food, do it It is an investment in yourself (which always comes back multiplied). |
Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts | | Your body was designed to survive and thrive in the natural environment; otherwise, you wouldn't even exist today. You wouldn't be here. Nature knows best. Modern medicine has only been around for maybe 50 years, depending how you define "modern." It's just a blink of an eye in the scope of human history and human evolution. We are advanced beings, and we evolved through a system of natural foods, natural energy sources and highly nutritious substances in our environment that we are supposed to ingest. |
Alex Steffen
See book keywords and concepts |  The world of commerce relies heavily on a healthy natural environment. Nature's systems provide a wealth of tangible and intangible services to business—some $33 trillion worth of "free" deliverables a year, say experts in the "Millennium Ecosytem Assessment Synthesis Report." Those services include fertile soil, fresh water, breathable air, pollination, species habitat, soil formation, pest control, a livable climate, and a host of other things we tend to take for granted. |
Carlo Petrini
See book keywords and concepts |  Good, clean, and fair are the cornerstones of this knowledge, ideas which require a great cognitive effort, the sharing of a large mass of information, and which demand that the gastronome change his approach to food—first and foremost that he restore centrality to food, equipping himself with all the tools necessary to proclaim that all human beings have a right to their own food, to their own choices, in harmony with their culture and with the natural environment in which they live.
The gastronome's aim, ultimately, is pleasure, happiness. | | The harm that is being done in China in the name of development is incalculable, and the system, though nominally communist, is in fact the embodiment of perfect capitalism: political homogeneity, uncontrolled exploitation of labor, and exploitation of the natural environment with no thought of the future. We need to promote a strong international reaction, not by increasing existing tariffs or imposing new ones, not by seeking complicity, but rather by rejecting such an unfair system, and making the Chinese respect the environment and their workers. | | Agriculture must be deindustrialized; the earth and the natural environment must be given priority again. The earth must not be allowed to die, or kept alive like a terminally ill patient, with traumatic methods. Stressed soil does not produce properly, and in the end produces only death. Stressed soil is not the result of a harmonious relationship between man and nature: it is nothing but a food-producing machine—a sad machine, which does not generate happiness.
How, then, can agriculture be deindustrialized? |

An ecotourism sign in the Himalayas outlines proper conduct for hikers and travelers. we have very little direct, face-to-face experience. This creates a disconnect between our actions and their implications. It makes it difficult for us to understand the true significance and impact of what we do, what our politicians do, and who it all effects. |
T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D. and Thomas M. Campbell II
See book keywords and concepts |  Never before have we affected the natural environment to such an extent that we are losing our topsoil, our massive North American aquifers, and our world's rainforests.10 We are changing our climate so rapidly that many of the world's best-informed scientists fear the future. Never before have we been eliminating plant and animal species from the face of the earth as we are doing now. Never before have we introduced, on such a large scale, genetically altered varieties of plants into the environment without knowing what the repercussions will be. |

See article keywords and concepts |  Health is a state of harmony between you and the natural environment. That's really the true measure of health. Doesn't it make sense that to attain a high state of health, you should consume the foods for which your body was naturally designed? It's built into your genes. You have a genetic blueprint to consume low-glycemic foods, high-fiber foods, foods with natural minerals, vitamins and phytonutrients. This compatibility is in your genes. Unprocessed, uncooked foods right out of nature are what you are designed to consume. |

See article keywords and concepts |  That is, if we don't kill ourselves first with the destruction of our natural environment. If mankind is still around in a hundred years, I'm certain we'll have food fabrication machines. Just be prepared to pull out your wallet (or, should I say, your embedded radio frequency tag) in order to pay for what you're going to be eating at that time, because you can bet there's going to be some mega corporation behind the scenes demanding payment if you want to eat. |

See article keywords and concepts |  Whether you go on a guided nature walk, hike a trail or participate in one of the food making classes held daily, you will gain a much greater understanding of how peaceful people can truly live in harmony with their natural environment by giving back to the earth just as they take from it. This is a healing lesson, because you cannot be a healthy individual if you are not simultaneously healing the earth and those around you. Even as a civilization, we cannot be healthy if we are destroying our environment. |

See book keywords and concepts |  If they did, your body would have evolved the mechanisms to make those drugs automatically, or at least to find them in plants in the natural environment, yet these drugs don't exist in nature. That's a big clue right there that they don't belong in the human body.
The bottom line is, if you want to get to a new destination with your health, step one is always getting safely off of prescription drugs. That way, you have a clear vision of what's happening in your body and can start to see the true results of the adjustments you make. |
