The difference is that the brain is very sensitive to poor nutrition, whereas it takes years for poor nutrition to affect the heart and other organs.
Nutritional Deficiencies Are Common
I've suggested that large numbers of people are poorly nourished, and you may wonder whether the situation is really that bad. After all, we've often been told that our country is the best-fed nation in the world.
Unfortunately, the situation is far worse than most people realize. |

In other words, the big money makers for conventional medicine are diseases that are in fact caused by nutritional deficiencies and nutritional imbalances in the first place. If poor nutrition wasn't so widespread, the lucrative disease treatment industry would collapse due to lack of customers.
This article is an excerpt from the book, The 7 Laws of Nutrition by Mike Adams. |

It can be compromised for any number of reasons, from poor nutrition to invasion by viruses to exposure to environmental toxins. Peter's matching experiments have shown that cell function, at a bioenergetic level, may be distorted particularly easily by the following pollutants: dioxins, phencyclidines (PCPs), xlyenes, electromagnetic radiation, and heavy metals. The Cell Driver Infoceutical bioenergetically helps to restore cell function. It generally tends to have an energizing effect on your body, so it is best not to take it around bedtime. |

Other factors besides light decrease the body's production of melatonin, including aging, certain prescription drugs, stress, poor nutrition, and EMFs.
Researchers have discovered that an adequate level of melatonin does much more than regulate sleep; it also improves immunity, has anticancer and antiaging effects, can relieve depression, and may boost sexual function. Those types of health conditions are the same ones that researchers say may be caused or exacerbated by EMF overexposure. The connection between melatonin and EMFs appears to be getting more solid evidence. |

Our stores of Source energy tend to become depleted by prolonged stress, being indoors too much, chronic shallow breathing, poor nutrition, and exposure to toxins, among other factors. This depletion increases the probability that our bodies may not be able to maintain homeostasis, so symptoms of that loss may develop. If you do become ill, then as your illness moves from being acute to chronic, your Source energy becomes further weakened, and your body has less and less of a reserve of energy to deal with the illness. |
| Information can be inserted into the wave at any Energetic Integratot point in the big body-wave for any number of reasons—physical shock or trauma, emotional shock or trauma, toxins, microbes, parasites, bacteria and fungi, ionizing radiation, X-rays, microwaves, poor nutrition, geopathic stress, and the like. The opposite also is ttue. If corrective information is inserted into the wave at an Integrator anywhere along it, then that information also can change the wave, reforming it in a way that is more in tune with the body's natural state. |

Disease symptoms begin to appear at 58 MHz when the body's normal healthy frequency of 62 to 72 MHz has been reduced due to poor nutrition, lack of exercise, increased acidity, and toxicity in the body. Progressive deterioration indicates when disease conditions would start to manifest:
Symptom Body Freqency
Cold 58 MHz
Flu 57 MHz
Candida 55 MHz
Chronic Fatigue 52 MHz
Cancer 42 MHz

| This is disappointing because it is well known that poor nutrition creates chemical imbalances in the body. Time after time, it seems that funding for research and development programs that address the causes of cancer is totally ignored by those in authority positions.
Politicians like to use terms such as "declaring war" on diseases. But to return a body to health, the solution is not to find an aggressor against a disease. The solution is to build a solid defense system within the body so that disease has no appropriate medium in which to exist. |

Worry, fear, anxiety and apprehension have a damaging effect on the glandular system and disrupt the body's natural harmony. Add poor nutrition and insufficient rest and you have the recipe for a depressed immune system. But a relaxed mind plus a relaxed body equals a positive healing response.
Changing your thought patterns from negative to positive, and setting achievable goals, are steps in the right direction towards physical and emotional wellness. |
| The consequence of poor nutrition in the developed world is a diet-related sickness bill of billions of dollars annually.
Considering the huge and ever-increasing consumption of aerated drinks, alcohol, canned and frozen foods in general, fried snack foods, potato chips, french fries, ice cream, hot dogs, hamburgers, chocolate and candies, is it any wonder that the health and well-being of Western societies is being affected? Add to this the increasing use of refined white flour rather than wholemeal, salt, sugar, tea and coffee, and the picture gets gloomier. |

He also cited sources from the contemporary western press, including Bernard Shaw, Morley Roberts, and an article from the London Times criticizing the bacteriologically focused public health campaigns of the preceding decade, and citing workplace pollution and poor nutrition as the true 'soil' of disease. His most potent ammunition, however, was drawn from germ theory's recent and bitter defeat in the face of the influenza pandemic. |
| Pettenkofer, meanwhile, continued to declare his deep scepticism of the gospel of germs and argued that no one in good health could be sickened by a germ alone, in the absence of an unsanitary environment, poor nutrition, hereditary defect, or other factors. Dramatically, he illustrated his contempt for 'germs' by downing a glass of water liberally inoculated with the specimen of cholera vibrio recently sent to him from Koch's own laboratory. |

Surprisingly, the biggest challenge facing the immune system is poor nutrition. The availability of important nutrients can have a great impact on the course of an infectious disease. Adequate intake of several vitamins, minerals, and herbs enhances the immune system and reduces the risk of developing infection or disease.
The immune system is suppressed during times of stress. Optimal nutrition helps maintain a strong immune system and combat the harmful effects of stress. Other challenges to a healthy immune system include chronic lack of sleep, overwork, and the aging process. |

Poor nutrition and a lack of exercise can have a dramatic effect on your body and your mind.
When you no longer feel good about yourself, you begin to lose your self-esteem and self-confidence. That is what really snapped me back to reality. I've always been confident in everything I did, so when I started to have doubts about my decisions, I knew the time had come to make major changes. I had to improve my diet and increase my level of physical activity in the form of regular and consistent exercise. Overall, I would say that my results were unspectacular in the first two months. |

Ask the petit Oki-nowans or the short Sardinians, both among the longest living people on earth, if short stature signifies poor nutrition and a shortened life span. On the contrary, taller individuals tend to die earlier than their shorter peers.16
Now let's sort out the decades-long debate between the animal protein diet and vegetarian diet gurus, with their conflicting "good foods/bad foods" lists. Both camps see the tree but miss the forest. What do I mean by that? |

This tendency toward explosive anger appears to stem from a combination of genetics and poor nutrition, resulting in low levels of certain neuronutrients and neurotransmitters. It's also a result of learned behavioral habits. The hair-trigger response that typifies hostile-personality disorder can be modified through dietary improvements, supplements, psychological counseling, and lifestyle changes.
Brooding and resentment are related to anger and, like a simmering dish, tend to cook. I'm sure you've heard the phrase "He's really stewing." Resentment is a feeling of anger that's bottled up. |
| Over the last thirty-five years, a small number of researchers, law enforcement personnel, and psychiatrists have investigated how poor nutrition contributes to anger, destructive behavior, and violence. They have found that inadequate nutrition can alter moods, thinking processes, and a moral sense of what is right or wrong.
At the Pfeiffer Treatment Center, located in the Chicago suburb of Warrenville, doctors are researching the use of nutritional supplements to treat severe mood and behavioral disorders, including extreme anger, destructive behavior, and criminal violence. |
| Some people will always be more susceptible than others to the behavioral and physical effects of poor nutrition.
What's even worse, bad nutrition and bad moods are not just a problem in your community or only an American problem. As U.S. companies have increasingly exported their junk foods to other nations, the incidence of obesity and diabetes has soared. I would also argue that so has the preponderance of bad moods. |

Recent or past positive test results for chlamydia may lead to greater risk for cervical cancer.
• poor nutrition. Diets low in fruits and vegetables may increase the risk for cervical cancer.
• Multiple heterosexual partners. Having three or more partners in a lifetime increases risk of cervical cancer.
• Obesity. Overweight women are more likely to develop cervical cancer.
• Oral contraceptives. Although the research is mixed, long-term use of oral contraceptives may increase the risk of cervical cancer.
• Low socioeconomic status. |

Evidence of this is everywhere: 65 percent of our nation's adults are overweight or obese, and 10 percent of the population has type 2 diabetes, a preventable and ruinous disease that stems from inactivity and poor nutrition. Once an affliction almost exclusively of the middle-aged, it's now becoming an epidemic among children. We're literally killing ourselves, and it's a problem throughout the developed world, not merely a province of the supersize lifestyle in the United States. |

Weak digestion, poor nutrition, or poor general health can also trigger attacks, as how your body handles rhinitis is linked to the strength of your immune system. The inhalation of airborne irritants prompts an exaggerated response of the immune system, which forms antibodies to fight against invaders. This triggers the release of histamine, which causes inflammation and mucus production in the nasal passages. Hay fever sufferers (see p. |
| This can result from too many late nights, which leads to fatigue, overindulging in alcohol, and poor nutrition. Puffy eyes can also be aggravated by overexposure to the sun, menstruation, and pregnancy. Occasionally bags under the eyes are accompanied by dark circles, which are usually caused by higher-than-average amounts of melanin (which gives the skin its pigment). Rubbing your eyes can cause folds that darken the color of the skin, creating the appearance of bags under the eye.
Puffy eye bags are usually passed on genetically and tend to become more prominent as you get older. |
| Occasionally people become depressed in response to certain foods or poor nutrition, a lack of physical fitness, or an illness. |

When you combine poor nutrition with stress—and who doesn't feel stressed these days?—normal brain activity, moods, and behavior get skewed. You probably know from experience that you're more likely to overreact to a situation when you're hungry than when you've just eaten.

Lifestyle factors such as including too much caffeine and sugar in your diet, poor nutrition, recreational drug use, exhaustion, and stress, and the side effects of certain medications can also cause anxiety.
Becoming anxious under pressure can sometimes be a positive thing, as it can lead to increased performance levels. For most people, anxiety is a short-term problem and tends to disappear after the anticipated event has passed. If anxiety occurs on a regular basis and threatens to overwhelm you, however, it becomes a bigger problem. |
| It is particularly likely to be present in those who wear false teeth, take antibiotics, suffer from diabetes, or have immune deficiencies as a consequence of poor nutrition. Newborns are also prone to outbreaks of oral thrush. The symptoms of thrush are similar to many other conditions, so it is important to have a thorough check-up by your doctor if you suspect you have oral thrush. Oral thrush is generally treated by antifungal medicines applied to the mouth. |

The fact that Iranians in Ramsar appear to have lived for generations in relatively good health despite living in an area of high radiation, poor nutrition, lack of availability of physicians and low-population density compared to developed nations, all point to some possible protective effect from low-dose radium and radon gas. The opposite of what you would expect to find.

Many of these affected individuals also have serious social problems like IV drug abuse, alcoholism and poor nutrition, all of which greatly increase the risk for these diseases. Newborns certainly don't fall into those risk groups and children almost never suffer from a hepatitis B infection or liver cancer. Since the vaccine protects a child only for a few years, by the time he could possibly develop liver cancer, the vaccine would have already stopped providing any benefits. Obviously this extremely poisonous childhood vaccine is absolutely unnecessary. |

Those with erectile dysfunction, a condition caused by poor circulation often as a result of a lack of physical activity and poor nutrition, are opting for drugs to stimulate their erection rather than doing that which would actually improve their appearance, make them more attractive to their partner, and increase their vitality and libido. Males have so neglected and mistreated their bodies that they need a pill to help them perform one of the most basic, instinctual, natural acts. |
