"It contains food items from the meat group, the grain group, the fruit group and even the dairy group. But yet, there is absolutely nothing in that meal that is good for you. Not a single thing. In fact, that's the breakfast of chronic disease and obesity. A person who eats that sort of breakfast on a daily basis can look forward to being diagnosed with a variety of chronic diseases in the years ahead. Traditional American meals simply aren't healthy So there's no real agreement on what a balanced meal is and even when there is some agreement, those meals aren't balanced at all." - Mike Adams, The Seven Laws of Nutrition (Get the book.)

"For overall health, the next best group is group A, foods dense in both nutrients and calories. Foods low in both nutrients and calories (group D) may not foster weight gain directly but can do so indirectly, as in the case of diet soda (see "Why Sugar Substitutes Don't Work" on page 34). These foods and beverages also offer few if any health benefits. Then there's group C: foods high in calories and low in nutrients. These badlands of the food universe are home to just about every junk food you can think of." - David L. Katz, Catherine S. Katz, Dr. David Katz's Flavor-Full Diet: Use Your Tastebuds to Lose Pounds and Inches with this Scientifically Proven Plan (Get the book.)

"One group was given zinc supplements and the other group was given placebo pills. And just to make sure that none of the subjects was missing any vitamins or minerals, everyone in both groups was asked to take a standard multivitamin supplement each day. As it turned out, everyone had an improvement in their immune function, whether they were in the zinc group or the placebo group. Without recognizing it, the researchers had corrected a whole range of nutrient deficiencies with a simple multivitamin, and everyone's immune functions improved." - Neal Barnard, M.D., Eat Right, Live Longer: Using the Natural Power of Foods to Age-Proof Your Body (Get the book.)

"To find out, I tried the same experiment on two groups of rats. One group was given a nucleic-acid treatment, the other (for comparison) was not. Members of the first group slept far apart in their cage, the second group huddled together for warinth. Clearly one group required more heat from outside their bodies than the other. Later, patients mentioned to me that after nucleic-acid therapy had begun they needed less heavy clothing in cold weather. One of these patients suffered from diabetes, which normally reduces tolerance to the cold." - Benjamin S. Frank, Dr. Frank's No-Aging Diet (Get the book.)

"The active group participants were given the actual neurotransmitter precursor lozenges, while the placebo group was given the same product with no active ingredients. The participants were provided with enough CraniYums to take two lozenges, three times per day—six total per day. They were instructed to dissolve the neurotransmitter precursor lozenges slowly in their mouth and not chew them. The participants filled out the symptom rating responses on a weekly basis. Each of twenty-three symptoms of neurotransmitter deficiencies was listed in a chart." - Cheryle Hart, M.D., and Mary Kay Grossman, RD, The Feel-Good Diet (Get the book.)

"When hunting and gathering groups grew beyond the capacity of their territory to support them, parr of the group would split off and move to new territory. Once there was no more productive territory to colonize, growing populations developed more intensive (and time-consuming) ways to extract a living from their environment. Such pressures favored groups that could produce food themselves to get more out of the land. In this view, agriculture can be undetstood as a natural behavioral response to increasing population." - David R. Montgomery, Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"Japanese primatologists in the Democratic Republic of the Congo have documented rampant group sex when nomadic bonobos come across trees full of fruit. These sexual free-for-alls apparently allow bonobos to blow off steam and get along together. Communal fruit sex was a fact of life in early agrarian societies. As with the bonobos, fruit harvests were a prime opportunity to unleash an orgy, wrote religious historian Mircea Eliade. These orgies had chaotic, holy underpinnings that Eliade described as "unbounded sexual frenzy," where anything could happen and all decency was dispensed with." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.) "According to surveys commissioned by the California Tree Fruit Agreement, the most sought-after fruit demographic is a group called "Summer Enthusiasts." What unifies this sunny cabal, alongside their above-average fruit purchases, is an interest in playing sports and (say the following with a robot voice) having new experiences. Summer Enthusiasts "believe having fun is the point of life, think continuing to learn throughout life is very important, believe enjoying life and doing the things they want to do is important." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.) "Humans, alongside certain birds and primates, are part of a select group of species that can detect a difference between the colors green and red. Our 3-D photoreceptor eyesight stems from the need to notice red-ripe fruits in a sea of green leaves and foliage. Today, a red traffic light means "stop," which is exactly what we used to do in our primeval forests. The greens and reds are now part of the asphalt jungle, but their meaning hasn't changed much." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.)

"This was not entirely new at all since the Chinese had linked a prevailing characteristic emotion with every main group of meridians, and this is taught widely around the world and occurs in the basic ancient texts on the subject. However, I found that something as tenuous as a personality characteristic, such as charisma, which can be thought of as a characteristic of a person rather than an emotion, also appeared in the high frequency region near the end of the Integrator! "What came after emotions? Consciousness!" - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.) "Chemical bonding accounts for how atoms group together to form molecules. Then molecules bind to make cells, cells cluster into tissues, which form into organs, and before you know it you have a living organism. Nowhere, at any of those levels, can you find the one organ or activity or process that is "life." Yet, put all those component parts together—and add in an external environment that supplies nutrients and light and other factors necessary to support life—and you get an E. coli bacterium, a mosquito, a salmon, a peacock, a rhinoceros, or a human being." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.) "The remedies he was using at that time were meridian complexes, that is, they were modeled after Peter's earlier work exploring the meridians, although his spiderweb diagram had revealed that the group of twelve compartments had a specific sequence that deviated from the order specified in traditional Chinese medicine. The liquid remedies were taken, as the new Infoceuticals are now, as drops in a small glass of water. Harry reacted within a few days of taking the general Flaviviridae remedy, experiencing a detoxification episode in the form of severe flulike symptoms." - Peter h.

"Soon after, he joined a soccer team and started getting to know and interacting with a larger group of friends (his teammates) as well. Computer games were soon pushed to the background, and the Mun family was happy to report that the addiction was more or less broken and Jae's schoolwork was showing marked improvement in two months' time. Jae is one of many bright kids whom I've had the pleasure of meeting whose life, unfortunately, was being consumed by video games." - Jay Gordon, The ADD and ADHD Cure: The Natural Way to Treat Hyperactivity and Refocus Your Child (Get the book.) "One of the goals of these conversations should be to show everyone involved that this is a group project, that a fully operational support team has been assembled—and that everyone will do his or her part to help the situation. Exercises like these are instrumental in the healing process and in opening up communication lines with the child with behavioral issues." - Jay Gordon, The ADD and ADHD Cure: The Natural Way to Treat Hyperactivity and Refocus Your Child (Get the book.)

"Growing cranberries used to be a pleasant way of life," says Hal Brown, moderator of a cranberry discussion group at www.cranberrystressline.com. "It's pretty, it's scenic, you could make some money, hire an employee or two, pay them a 30k salary Unfortunately, the fruit's value declined from eighty dollars a barrel in the 1990s to twelve dollars a barrel in 2001. If prices had stayed up, we could have easily made 300k per year. Thank God my wife is a librarian and I'm a psychotherapist." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.)

"Choose what suits your tastes, time schedule, and age group. We remember well all the different, repetitive meals as our child's tastes changed. You will find a variety of options to which you can add and subtract ingredients and quantities and even serve at different mealtimes. Who's to say that hot cereal can't be dinner and leftover burritos can't be breakfast? I've divided the next section into three parts. The first section offers a selection of preparation tips to help you start the ADD/ADHD cure off right for the whole family." - Jay Gordon, The ADD and ADHD Cure: The Natural Way to Treat Hyperactivity and Refocus Your Child (Get the book.)

"Is there more power in group prayer than in individual prayer?" These are valid questions for which some answers are beginning to emerge. In most European and Western cultures, the predominant faith is Christianity, and the main scriptures are the Bible. But when we begin to investigate the history of how the Bible was written and assembled, some very interesting facts come to light. Rabbi David M." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"This constitutes a cross-catalytic cycle, the basis for the functioning of the suprasystem that is the enterprise itself or the multi-enterprise group (see fig. 8). Suprasystem formation through cross-catalytic cycles also takes place on the political level. The over 190 nation-states of today's world claim independence and sovereignty for themselves, but their autonomy is increasingly restricted: for the most part nation-states are highly dependent on other states and on transborder economic and financial flows." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.)

"This complex comprises a group of eight vitamins: thiamine (Bi), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pyridoxine (B6), folic acid (B9), cyanocobalamin (B12), biotin, and pantothenic acid. I have not gone into deep discussion about individual vitamins in this book because on a well-balanced diet they should be adequately supplied. Nevertheless, on a continual diet of processed food, or one that is mostly vegetarian, a deficiency in one or more of the B vitamins can develop." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.) "After enzymes, friendly bacteria in the intestinal tract comprise the only other group of organisms that perform healthy transactions in our bodies. They are a necessary part of the biological process because they produce enzymes, vitamins, and antibiotics, and create electrical matrices that can inhibit cancers, deactivate viruses, reduce cholesterol, and enhance the immune system. Due to our modern diets, processed foods, chlorinated and fluoridated water, pharmaceutical antibiotics, and intestinal toxemia, friendly bacteria populations are greatly reduced in the human intestinal tract." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.) "The ego is that part of self that is created and perpetuated by constant thoughts associated with our worth or importance as an individual in the family, group, or society in which we live and work. It began when we left the childhood world of innocent spontaneity, and entered the adult world of calculated thought and pretence. We began projecting a self-image to make us appear acceptable to others. The ego is based on an unconscious identification with the mind, but it is a false self, an imposter.4 Since the ego feeds on mind chatter, life in the egoic mind is an illusion." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"Try as they did, the research statisticians could not demonstrate that digitizing the image improved detection for the group as a whole or the women over age fifty Of course for every cancer detected, many women had negative biopsies. Many cancers went undetected, even a number that made their presence known in the next year or so. And, as we'll see, many of the "cancers" that were detected bode little of importance, particularly for the older women. There were about 10,000 premenopausal women in the study. Of course, they had far fewer positive studies and developed far fewer cancers." - Nortin M. Hadler MD, Worried Sick: A Prescription for Health in an Overtreated America (Get the book.)

"Mica is the name for a group of fine crystallized minerals that create a light glow in facial cosmetics by increasing the reflection of light. They can be colored or colorless. Mica is harmless, except when inhaled as a fine dust, when it can cause acute or chronic lung irritation. 3. Bisabolol. Bisabolol, like hydroxy acids (though less commonly used), is a dangerous skin peeler and penetration enhancer, that facilitates the absorption of other ingredients into the skin. 4. Anti-Cellulite Creams." - Samuel S. Epstein, Randall Fitzgerald, Toxic Beauty: How Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Endanger Your Health . . . And What You Can Do about It (Get the book.) "In 2007 the group changed its name to the Personal Care Products Council. The Council maintains dozens of fulltime lobbyists at the federal and state levels of government and with this highly paid team has pursued an aggressive political agenda against what it considers to be "unreasonable or unnecessary labeling or warning requirements." Among its many successes in stifling public disclosure was blocking a bill in the New York legislature that would have required a cancer warning label on cosmetic talc powder." - Samuel S.

"Another major group of contaminants called phthalates (pronounced "thowl-ates"), which are used as solvents or fixing agents in perfumes, body lotions, and other cosmetics, were detected in most cord blood samples. The most commonly used phthalate, DEHP, was found in twenty-four of the twenty-seven samples. The report referred to numerous studies which, in the words of the researchers, "have shown a correlation between premature breast development in girls younger than eight years old and the concentrations of the phthalate DEHP in their blood." - Samuel S. Epstein, Randall Fitzgerald, Toxic Beauty: How Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Endanger Your Health . . . And What You Can Do about It (Get the book.) "Allergens are a large group of natural and synthetic chemicals which cause sensitization of the skin, known as allergic contact dermatitis. This is entirely different from non-specific dermatitis, known as irritant contact dermatitis (4). Allergic contact dermatitis involves two distinct stages. First, the skin comes into contact with an allergen, which sensitizes specific "memory cells" to that allergen. Subsequent exposure to the allergen, some five to ten days later, causes the sensitized cells to release specific molecules (known as cytokines), which trigger an allergic reaction." - Samuel S.
