recap of some stuff i learned today

Peppermint contains folate, calcium, and other important things.

I looked up DDD (degenerative disc disease) ... and well, I gotta do some more digging. But! I came upon some sort of forum where people were saying that they developed DDD when they were 17 and 18 years old, due to celiac disease.

Also, cinnamon contains manganese and other... important things.
Sniffing cinnamon helps improve brain function. (I learned this from whfoods.com's page about Cinnamon.)



I think that one really big problem, and it is becoming larger.... The genetically modified versions of real fruits and vegetables are simply not as healthy. They do not contain the highest content of vitamins and minerals that we need to survive in a healthy sort of way. - I need to do much more research on this..
GMOed food is inferior to the real thing. No matter how much "cheaper" it is. I'm sure it's not really as cost-efficient as THEY (and we all now know who THEY is, don't we?) want us to believe -- the drugs and SUPPLEMENTS that we will need will be costly.. Whereas, if we were eating real food, perhaps we wouldn't have such vitamin and mineral deficiencies.

Soy... is probably the number one GMOed crop.
And honestly, soy is probably the worst thing you can eat. -- And they utilize soy bean oil for everything, because it is SO CHEAP.
But why is it cheap? because Monsanto made created soy that has a special PROTEIN in it that their number one product RoundUp (which *causes* cancer) will not kill. I believe that these proteins are unable to be digested by our stomachs. -- Think of the Asians, which is where we supposedly got this grand idea of eating large amounts of soy. They do not eat large amounts of soy products. (About 1% of their diet consists of soy -- but they only eat the kind that is fermented for six months first.) No one does.. except the U.S.A. And why? Because the people who control our food system want us to be as stupid, sickly, and cancer-ridden as possible. Because we can't overpower them if we're weak and stupid, right?

It is being marketed as a health food, but it is an anti-health food.

Soy *increases* the need for Vitamin D, and it BLOCKS the absorption of Calcium. -- Why on earth would someone drink soy milk -- in order to receive calcium, when in fact, it will cause you to have a calcium deficiency?!

Soy contains phytoestrogen, it mimicks estrogen in the body and therefore raises estrogen levels. Mothers who are giving their infants Soy formula will cause their female children to have premature sexual development... Soy formula will cause sexual retardation in boys.

I recently read on a forum where people were talking about how they were brought up on soy formula and then they ended up being infertile. There is a connection there.

Flaxseeds contain a phytoestrogen that does not raise estrogen levels, it levels your estrogen levels out... And if they are fine, then it does not do anything.


Expect more real information soon. And soon, all of this information will have a nice, pretty home, at xlicea.com. :)
