 Of all the mammals on planet Earth, only humans are dumb enough to seek out the mammary gland juice of another species while shunning the breast milk of their own species. And did we choose the milk of a species SMARTER than us that might have more brain-boosting nutrients? Nope. We get our milk from a low-IQ species well suited to pulling a plow. Cow's milk ain't exactly brain nutrition, folks. Some people have a hard time understanding that because they've been drinking too much of the stuff and those mushy neurons crammed into their thick skulls are firing a bit on the slow side. |

 There are said to be as many as 20 species of the Hoodia plant, but only the Hoodia gordonii variety grown in the Kalahari Desert of South Africa has evidence to support its appetite suppressing qualities. This makes it very difficult to come by, but there are many more Hoodia products on the market than can possibly be sustained by this rare plant using the exact species and portion of the plant said to provide benefits. Greedy manufacturers can use any of the Hoodia species and still lawfully claim that their product contains one hundred percent Hoodia. |

 The laws of evolution dictate that a species will not evolve in a comfortable, isolated environment where reproduction is easy. By contrast, a species will evolve quickly in a tough environment where individuals of different backgrounds and conditions interact. Similarly, in a place like the Sardinian Blue Zone, there is less pressure to adapt. |

 The marketing myths about plants or rare species of seaweed, from remote countries or islands where they're gathered by tribal harvesting practices, and on and on, seem never-ending. Speaking of marketing nonsense, Longoza is actually a city in Madagascar, and the plant of that name appears to be a form of wild ginger. Yet it's not present anywhere in this product. That's OK, though, because there's no evidence that any species of ginger can "turn back the clock" for your skin. |

 Similar studies on mice, rats, fish, and other species have been done in numerous university laboratories during the past fifty years, and rhey all agree: a CR diet increases the maximum life span characteristic of the species. It also increases the population's average life span, so rhe two together translate into longer and healthier life.
It is important to note that the reducrion of calories is not the only criterion. The calories consumed must be "nutrient dense" healthy calories. (R.L. Walford, M. |

 The rate of biosynthesis of vitamin C in those species capable of producing the vitamin varies considerably between species. r
Biosynthesis of vitamin C
Step 1. Blood sugar (glucose) is made into glucuronate.
^GJucuronate^
Step 2. Glucuronate is converted to L-gluconate.
I
^UGluconate^
Step 3. L-gluconate is i----reduced with the enzyme
L-xylo-hexulonolactone.
C^^g^no-gamma-lactone^)
Step 4. L-Ascorbic Acid is made with the enzyme L-gulonolactone oxidase.
This final step is not possible in humans due to the lack of the enzyme L-gulonolactone oxidase. |

 Now consider how other species would regard the same thing. A fly simultaneously sees dozens of pictutes of its immediate environment. Bats navigate using radar, an entirely different system from ours. A dog doesn't see color but can smell, hear, and feel things that human beings do not. As part of its own survival strategy, each species constructs its own world of sensory impressions out of the energies around it. Whose world-view is more accurate? |

 Toxic chemical species formed from oxygen. Like guided missiles, free radicals are highly reactive and attack cell walls, membranes, and DNA, causing damage to the cell. Also called reactive oxygen species (ROS).
Glucose. A six-carbon sugar (therefore a carbohydrate) that is the starting point for many metabolic reactions in the body, including the anaerobic energy metabolic pathway, glycolysis.
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH). An enzyme found in the metabolic pathway that converts glucose to D-ribose. |

 Prevalence of Candida species in Turkish Children: Relationship Between Dietary Intake and Carriage. Kadir T; Uygun B; et al. Archives of Oral Biology, 2005 January, 50(l):33-37.
In exploring the prevalence and intensity of Candida species in 300 healthy Turkish children, the researchers determined that candidal carriage was 18.5 percent in children who were fed with both breast milk and bottle milk or other fluids, as compared with 0 percent in children fed only with breast milk. |

 In fact, we are becoming a mutant species.
Mike: That is a very strong statement. Can you explain? What do you mean by a mutant species?
Fitzgerald: Starting about two decades ago, wildlife biologists began noticing -- in lakes, rivers, the ocean and in swamps like the Everglades -- that fish and amphibian species, in particular, were becoming mutants. Hermaphrodites were emerging in numbers never seen before. Alligators in the swamps of the Everglades were developing both male and female sex organs. Fish off of the coast of California were developing both male and female sex organs. |

| These organisms also appeared to be registering light from other species, although the greatest synchronicities occurred between members of the same species.16 Once the light waves of one organism were initially absorbed by another organism, the first organism's light would begin trading information in synchrony.17 Living things also appeared to communicate information with their surroundings. Bacteria absorbed light from their nutritional media: the more bacteria present, Popp found, the greater the absorption of light.18 Even the white and yolk of an egg appear to communicate with the shell. |

 Ginseng
The term "ginseng" refers to several species of the genus Panax, of which the most commonly used are American ginseng {Panax quinquefolius) and Asian ginseng {Panax ginseng). A third type is Siberian ginseng {Eleutherococcus senticosus), which is from a different genus and does not contain the components (ginsen-osides) present in the Panax species that are believed to give it healing qualities.
For more than two thousand years, practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine have used ginseng root to treat various ailments. |

| These ancestors fathered not only the human members of the clan, but also the animal species after which the clan was named; thus the human members of the beaver clan were blood cousins of the animal beavers, protectors of the species and in turn protected by the animal wisdom of the wood folk. Or another example: The ho-gan, or mud hut, of the Navahos of New Mexico and Arizona, is constructed on the plan of the Navaho image of the cosmos. The entrance faces east. The eight sides represent the four directions and the points between. |

 Member companies only use materials from animal species which are generally accepted in the human food chain," states Alison Walker, spokesperson for PFMA. "This rules out the use of any materials from horses, ponies, whales and other sea mammals, kangaroos and many other species. The per food industry only uses materials of beef, lamb, poultry and pork origin, fish, shellfish, rabbit and game."10
The literature further states that PFMA members use only materials derived from animals who have been inspected and passed as fit for human consumption. |

 In another Harris poll only 22 percent of Americans believed that we evolved from earlier species. Fifty-four percent thought that we did not evolve from earlier species. Forty-eight percent believed that Darwin's theory of evolution was not correct. Two-thirds of the population polled believed that human beings were created by God.6
The number and type of belief systems is limitless. As long as beliefs are not anchored in oneself and in one's feelings, they can take off and encompass all sorts of delusional notions. |
| We get a good idea about evolution from all this, both personal and the species. First there are sensations, such as choking, gagging, suffocation; then feelings, such as unhappy, sad, fearful; then ideas. One flowed into the other as the species developed, as well as in our own personal development. Ideas are the court of last resort. We stretch them into absurd lengths until we reach psychosis, where there is no longer any real grounding in external reality. If we can contain the pain with our migraines and high blood pressure, so be it. If we cannot, then we adopt belief systems. |

 If potentially harmful bacteria proliferate unchecked by friendly bacteria, the chances are greater that a species of bacteria will grow to sufficient numbers to influence bowel health—causing either diarrhea or constipation. A study of thirty-seven human volunteers found that green tea increased the regularity of bowel movements. At the beginning of the study, only half of the volunteers reported regular bowel movements, but the number increased to more than 80 percent after twelve weeks of a diet supplemented with green tea polyphenols. |

 Fifty-nine applications fell into the "magical" category, with 39 plant species named to treat these disorders. Mal aire (18 applications), susto (14), and dano (9) were the most common magical illnesses encountered. Treatment in many cases involved the participation of the patient in a cleansing ceremony (limpia). This could either be a relatively simple spraying with perfumes and holy water, or an all-night ceremony involving the healer's curing altar (mesa). In addition, patients frequently receive seguros (herbal amulets) for protection against further evil influences and for good luck. |

 He suggests that studies byWyn-der and others may have involved strains of animals "with an exceptional receptivity to cigarette tar not possessed by the average member of the species."
The site goes on to note Hueper's reservations about the cigarette smoke theory of lung cancer:
It is apparent that any final decision concerning the relative role of cigarette smoking in the causation of cancer of the human lung should be kept in abeyance until a great deal additional study and more valid and, especially, medically conclusive evidence becomes available. . . . The data . . . |
| After all, women have been bleeding, sometimes uncomfortably, for as long as the species has existed. By the time the strange discharges, unstoppable cramps, and relentless full-belly feeling were evident, the cancer was unstoppable.
Doctors had long known that cervical cancer did not arise overnight. But it was accepted as an inevitable result of some poorly understood deficiency, perhaps a moral one. Disease of any kind was seen as a result of not trying hard enough to be good enough. Then as now, far more black women got the disease and died of it. |

| Although there are more than eighty kinds of bacteria living in the average mouth, the species that is the number-one culprit in dental caries is Streptococcus mutans, called S. mutans for short. This microorganism is present in the majority of mouths around the globe. S. mutans's favorite habitat is the surfaces of teeth, particularly the hard-to-reach spaces between adjoining teeth, although it is also commonly found on the chewing surfaces of teeth.
S. mutans converts sugar and other carbohydrates into acids, which become part of the sticky deposit called dental plaque. |
| Carcinogens are all around us; without a watchdog system (including antioxidants) for identifying and deactivating these carcinogens, the human species would probably have died out long ago from cancer epidemics.
Although there are signs and symptoms indicating the presence of cancer, the earliest cancer symptoms—those that appear when there is the best chance of combating the disease—are often minor and vague. Consult a physician if any of the following cancer warning signs persist over several days or more:
• sudden or unexplained weight loss.
• change in bowel or bladder habits. |
| Hamilton-Miller of the Department of Medical Microbiology at the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine in London, noted that tea extracts have been shown to inhibit the growth and reproduction of many species of bacteria, and outright kill them, especially the kinds that cause diseases of the diarrhea type. Furthermore, the amount of tea extract required to achieve these antibacterial effects is generally equivalent to what a person consumes when drinking tea as a beverage. |
