"Poultry Chickens and turkeys are not raised as they used to be. chicken farms are highly effective industrial operations where the key incentive is to raise chickens quickly. In 1940 it took four months to grow a three-pound chicken; in 1990 it took six weeks. I spoke with a number of chicken growers. Commercial growers state that chickens now attain full size in six weeks due to genetic engineering, not hormones, with no bad side effects." - D. Lindsey Berkson, Hormone Deception (Get the book.)

"Given the number of vaccines children already receive, many parents prefer not to give the chicken pox vaccine, often called a "convenience" vaccine, because chicken pox is not considered a life-threatening disease. Some parents prefer to allow their children to develop natural immunity by exposing them to the chicken pox. I choose not to give Wyatt some vaccines if his pediatrician and I conclude that the potential risks outweigh the benefits. Giving Wyatt a vaccine that contains mercury might create far more problems than it solves." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.)

"Providing advice on everything from choosing breeds to gathering eggs to complying with city ordinances, the book is interspersed with smart tidbits about the joys of raising chickens in the city and illustrated with vintage chicken advertisements. As Kilarski notes, "Keeping a small flock of chickens, even two chickens, is an enjoyable and rewarding pastime that, incidentally, makes us a little more self-sufficient and brings us closer to the slow, measured beat of nature."

"Toussaint had already isolated a bacterium (now called Pasteurella multocida) in the fluids of chickens with chicken cholera but could not culture the organism. Pasteur found a way to culture the organism and, on feeding chickens a single drop of it, induced cholera. In the summer of 1879, Pasteur and his assistants went on vacation, leaving a batch of chicken cholera culture in the laboratory refrigerator. Upon his return several months later, Pasteur inoculated healthy chickens with the aged culture. To his surprise, the aged culture did not produce disease in the chickens." - Peggy O'Mara, Vaccination The Issue of Our Times (Get the book.)

"This means that one person who ate eggs, chicken and chicken soup in one day would avoid chicken products for the next three days. The amount of food consumed is up to the individual. Then on day five, this person can eat them again. Therefore, this rotation diet is divided into four days. For further information and extensive lists of food families acquire Dr. Krop's above mentioned book (see Bibliography).

"Natural Astaxanthin is also used by a few chicken feed manufacturers. Again, as with salmon, the main reason is to pigment the egg yolks a deep, rich color. But just as with the A little goes a long way: Egg yolks go from yellow to a deep salmon farmers, you can be orange with only 4-8 parts per million of Natural Astaxanthin. sure that the chicken farmers are deriving plenty of health benefits from feeding their chickens Astaxanthin. One very interesting study examined the effects Astaxanthin had when given to layer hens." - Bob Capelli, ASTAXANTHIN: Natural Astaxanthin, King of the Carotenoids (Get the book.)

"The researchers found that pre-administration with probiotics (Lacobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Streptococcus faecalis) enhanced the chicken's immune response. The probiotic supplement chickens had superior health. Prebiotics were also investigated in this trial, and they were found only to be of added health benefit when probiotics were given simultaneously. It appears that probiotics can prevent Salmonella's growth in many animals commonly farmed for human consumption." - Allison Tannis, Probiotic Rescue: How You can use Probiotics to Fight Cholesterol, Cancer, Superbugs, Digestive Complaints and More (Get the book.)

"It is a painful skin condition caused by the virus that initially gives you chicken pox. After you recover from chicken pox, the virus remains hidden away in your nerves, dormant (another word for forgotten!) until something triggers your body's response to it. That "remembering" manifests as painful skin lesions when the virus becomes active again. So, even though you overcome your initial illness, the physical or bioenergetic imprint of that breakdown can linger for decades and manifest later in wholly different ways." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)

"During the course of the meal I reached over and took our second child, a baby, and in a matter-of-fact fashion proceeded to put him into a green soup bowl, full of hot water or some hot liquid; for he came out cooked thoroughly, like chicken fricassee. "I laid the viand on a bread board at the table and cut it up with my knife. When we had eaten all of it except a small part like a chicken gizzard I looked up, worried, to my wife and asked her, 'Are you sure you wanted me to do this? Did you intend to have him for supper?" - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)

"Bill had cut his own career in science short when he was drafted to run the family business, Church's Fried chicken, the Texan answer to Kentucky Fried chicken. He'd spent 10 years at it and recently he'd taken Church's to the market. He'd made his money and now he was in the mood to return to his youthful aspirations ?but with no education, he'd had to do it by proxy. In Hal he'd found his perfect counterpart ?a gifted physicist willing to pursue areas that ordinary scientists might dismiss out of hand." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.)

"Grocery-store chicken comes to us having been raised on feed laced not only with hormones and antibiotics but chemical dyes to give the meat a more attractive hue. Indeed, today farmers can select from fifteen different shades of yellow dyes, in a range from light yellow to bright orange, to add to chicken feed in order to make egg yolks the perfect color. Known as tartrazine, or FD&C yellow no. 5, yellow dye is present in thousands of other foods and drugs and has been linked in research studies to higher rates of asthma and allergic reactions." - Donna Jackson Nakazawa, The Autoimmune Epidemic (Get the book.)

"For example, in one of the most publicized reports, a woman, Claire Sylvia, received a heart-lung transplant, and afterward she suddenly began craving chicken nuggets and beer, two things she had never particularly cared for.8 She later discovered that her heart donor was a teenage male who had died in a motorcycle accident. He loved chicken nuggets and beer. Other transplant recipients have reported major behavioral changes, only to discover later that they had begun speaking and behaving like their donors." - Peter h.

"Completely digesting the average meal, from the time the food enters the body until the waste leaves, can take hours or days depending on the type and quantity of the food (for example, pork is more difficult to digest then chicken, and chicken is more difficult to digest then watermelon). For all practical purposes though, if we are eating two to three meals a day, every day, then we are in a constant state of digestion. That is, every minute of every day our digestive system is working hard at breaking down foods, delivering nutrients, and expelling waste." - Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.)

"The Truth About chicken Soup The first thing my Grandma (and maybe yours) did when someone in the family came down with a cold was serve up a bowl of hot chicken soup. And it turns out that Grandma may have been on to something. Studies at Harvard Medical School and Mount Sinai Hospital in Miami, Florida show that chicken soup is as effective against a cold as any over-the-counter remedy — although researchers are just beginning to understand why it works. Here's one good recipe for chicken soup: Cover a stewing chicken with water and bring to a boil." - Glenn W.

"White meat such as fish and chicken is more digestible, but do get rid of the chicken skin first—it contains too much fat. Do yourself a favour and throw out the frying pan. Grilling will reduce the fat content in your diet. Likewise, forget the take-aways, fast foods and overprocessed 'convenience' foods. All they do is raise your cholesterol level and put more fat into your body. Cholesterol-free vegetable oils and margarines are readily available and are palatable alternatives for cooking." - Dr Ron Roberts, Asthma Controlled Naturally: Techniques That Work (Get the book.)

"Herpes zoster is actually caused by the varicella-zoster virus, which also causes chicken pox. After someone recovers from chicken pox, most of the viral organisms are destroyed, but some survive and lay dormant in certain sensory nerves. A decline in the efficiency of the immune system allows the viruses to reemerge and cause shingles. Herpes zoster can occur due to stress or because the immune system has been weakened, either by disease, such as lymphoma or Hodgkin's disease, or by treatment with immunosuppressant or anticancer drugs." - Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.)

"In 1878, in order to concretely prove that specific bacteria caused specific diseases, Pasteur devoted his research to chicken cholera. Dr. H. Toussaint had already isolated a bacterium (now called Pasteurella multocida) in the fluids of chickens with chicken cholera but could not culture the organism. Pasteur found a way to culture the organism and, on feeding chickens a single drop of it, induced cholera. In the summer of 1879, Pasteur and his assistants went on vacation, leaving a batch of chicken cholera culture in the laboratory refrigerator." - Peggy O'Mara, Vaccination The Issue of Our Times (Get the book.)

"If you're going to eat meat, buy only organic meat to avoid exposure to the whole range of chemicals,' growth hormones, and parasites present in beef and chicken, or the high levels of toxic metals present in most fish. If it isn't available locally, pressure your supermarket to carry it as an option. 2. What About Dairy? The average American typically eats close to 600 pounds of dairy products a year, which makes it the single largest component of their diet. Unfortunately, this may not be as healthy as the milk ads you see on TV would lead you to believe." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.) "The bottom line is that eating small amounts of meat, chicken, or fish probably comes down mostly to a personal choice. If you choose to, you can eat 3 ounces a day, or less, of meat without any significant health problems—with the following provisos: • Keep the amount small? ounces a day or less. Heavy consumption of meat significantly compromises beneficial bacteria in the colon resulting in a 1,000% increase in the levels of harmful bacteria in the colon and a concomitant 90% drop in the levels of the beneficial bacteria as measured in fecal matter." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.) "Virtually all meat, chicken, and dairy that you eat (other than organic) is loaded with antibiotics, which destroy all of the beneficial bacteria in your gastrointestinal tract. • A diet high in meats and fats, because they take so long to break down in the human body, promotes the growth of the harmful, putrefying bacteria. • Constipation, of course, allows harmful bacteria to hang around longer, which allows them to proliferate. • Cigarettes, alcohol, and stress are also major culprits, as are some antibiotic herbs, such as goldenseal (if taken in sufficient quantity)." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"When we had eaten all of it except a small part like a chicken gizzard I looked up, worried, to my wife and asked her, 'Are you sure you wanted me to do this? Did you intend to have him for supper?' "She answered, with a domestic frown, 'After he was so well cooked, there was nothing else to do.' I was just about to finish the last piece, when I woke up." 53 This archetypal nightmare of the ogre father is made actual in the ordeals of primitive initiation. The boys of the Australian Murngin tribe, as we have seen, are first frightened and sent running to their mothers." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)

At the end of the trial, only 59 percent of the women were still taking their pills as instructed by the researchers. What about the women who actually took their calcium and vitamin D supplements correctly and consistently? Well, they had 29 percent fewer hip fractures than those who'd not followed precise instructions. There could be a calcium-vitamin D cancer connection." - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.)

"The best-known example is the childhood disease of chicken pox, caused by the varicella-zoster virus. Varicella is not only mild enough in its effect on most people that virtually no host dies, but it can remain within the host in a latent form, traveling to tissues of • For more about antigenic responses, see Chapter 9. the nervous system, reappearing decades later as the disease called shingles. It is therefore a reasonable rule of thumb when comparing diseases to presume that the more moderate the pathologic effect, the longer the two organisms have lived in contact, mutually evolving." - William Rosen, Justinian's Flea: The First Great Plague and the End of the Roman Empire (Get the book.)
