Untold Truth Seminar Notes

Seminar Notes-
“The Road to Happiness is Paved with Good Intestines!?!”
Such was the quote from speaker, Jay Vanden Houvel, PhD, ND, at our recent Untold Truth Seminar.

Jay likened the lymph system, which feeds the cells of the body, to a pond and our cells to fishing bobbers in the pond. If the pond water is clean and pure, the bobbers (cells) can stay healthy and well. If we fill the pond with “trash” (unhealthy substances- pop, coffee, alcohol, sugar, white flour, processed foods, etc.), our pond becomes polluted, the bobbers get damaged and can’t function correctly, causing disease. JAMA, 2003 says that a diet filled with sugar, meat and soda pop is an acidic diet. An acidic diet causes calcium to go from the bones to the pancreas, causing osteoporosis and jamming the pancreas which blocks insulin, which raises blood sugar, which causes inflammation.

“Chronic Inflammation is the underlying cause of all disease.” states Jay. Inflammation is also caused by a lack of nutrients and oxidation. When you have a disease name ending in “itis”, it means ‘inflammation of’. So arthritis is inflammation of the joints, colitis, inflammation of the colon, sinusitis, inflammation of the sinuses, and so on.

JAMA reported an experiment done by a cancer doctor in which they took two Petri dishes containing live cancer cells and placed slices of raw apple on one and micro-wave cooked apple on the other then placed them in the incubator. When checked, the cancer cells under the raw apple were inhibited and the ones under the cooked apple grew. This is not to say that cooked apples are bad. It shows that raw food has cancer inhibiting properties and that cooked ones, especially micro-waved doesn’t.

On vitamins, the RDA’s and DRI’s are only enough to prevent stage 4 and 5 of disease- the serious life-threatening stages. They don’t provide enough vitamins and minerals to prevent stages 1, 2 & 3 of deficiency diseases.

* Linus Pauling said we may need up to 10,000 mg of vitamin C per day.
