The Tragedy of Nutrition
The "tragedy of nutrition" remains a mystery to all those who refuse to believe that the nutritive and curative values of fresh fruits and starchless vegetables are far superior to all other foods!
They not only furnish the blood with the best nutrient elements and dissolvent, but also starchless, green vegetables contain high mineral-salt contents and also enjoy valuable vitamins.
We find the sick person almost forcibly fed on "mucus-forming" foods (i.e., eggs, milk, meats, and starchy stuff). The formation of mucus continues, never ceasing until finally decay takes over and the harmful bacteria make their appearance when death becomes inevitable.
The "mystery" of the bacteria can be readily solved: The gradual clogging up of the blood vessels leads to decomposition of these mucus-forming products.
Now, everyone surely knows that all meats, cheese; in fact, all organic matter will germinate in a favorable environment, putting forth bacilli during the process of decomposition. This condition of decay actually takes place in the living body and is referred to as pus abscesses, lupus, tuberculosis, syphilis, etc. The germs appear and are detectable only in the more advanced stage of disease. They are NOT the cause—but a product—of the disease, and disease-furthering because of the excretion of the bacilli and then toxins. If f humans lived in accordance with natural dietetic laws, on a mucusless diet, they would experience absolute health, beauty, and strength with no pain or grief.
The seemingly healthy person must first pass through a condition of "cleansing" sickness, so to speak, or at least an intermediary stage of sickness, before attaining the higher level of health. Properly, humans in perfect health should exhale fragrance! The stench of odor, sweat, foul breath, and all body odors are merely indications of the rotting matter with which practically all bodies are weighted; handicapped almost from infancy to that final excess of corruption, which stills forever the human engine. Red is the visible color of life; white, pale, colorless, a token of disease.
We have come to visualize old age as a state of decrepit old men and women. Ask any young person in their teens or even early twenties if they would like to become 80 or 90—and the answer is more than likely to be a horrified—NO! Becoming a centenarian is looked upon as being "unnatural. Mucusless Diet holds forth a promise of longevity with every single day a thrill and joy of living that God intended for all of his children.
Why do we start growing old at 40? The answer must be—"through eating the refined foods of the conventional diet"! Millions will needlessly die from various, unnecessary ailments, many before they attain the age of 75! And 80 percent of those who reach 65 will be invalids, suffering from catarrhal conditions, rheumatism, arthritis, heart disease, diabetes and many others—requiring hearing aids for deafness, and wearing glasses for failing vision, false teeth for loss of teeth; crutches, canes and wheel-chairs.
THE TRAGEDY OF NUTRITION
The cause of our failure to attain 70 with a healthy glow to our skin, vital energy, and ambition—and with never a thought of a complete cessation of all the worthwhile activities of life! Small wonder that hardening of the arteries starts at 30, when we deliberately dope our bodies with alcoholic drinks, nicotine and coal-tar poisons of cigarettes; caffeine from coffee and tea, meat, and mucus from starchy mucus-forming breads, cake, and cereals, all of which clog our bodies, eventually entering the bloodstream! Internally, we are all identical, with 30 feet of intestines.
Study your Own Body
hunger for health knowledge; there are no secrets! Convince yourself of the absolute truthfulness of a mucusless diet! Our greatest desire in life is retaining "youth"—with its grace, beauty, vivacity, and charm! Through wrong eating, gluttony, and faulty elimination, we will be old at 40! This is truly a tragedy.
