 "You stay up later and you have more energy to move around, but you can't use the method for long without physical damage. The speed category includes Ephedra, which is a major ingredient of many herbal appetite suppressants.
The same problems exist with thyroid supplements. If your thyroid is intact, taking more to speed yourself up will work for a while, but at a cost to your natural balance. And as long as you continue to eat too much, the method won't work and your health will suffer.
1. I am ready to give up the belief that there will be a magical solution to my weight problem.

 "I set the timer for 15 minutes and try and keep the speed between 25 and 30 miles an hour." She glanced down, saw the speedometer hovering between 20 and 25, and picked up her pace. Then she looked over at me expectantly and nodded at my tape recorder. She began to recount her life story almost nonchalantly, without gasping, never letting up on the pedals.
She grew up poor in what was then rural California, close enough to San Francisco to have a vague memory of water sloshing around in the family animal trough during the great 1906 earthquake. Her father was a mule skinner."- Dan Buettner, The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest (Get the book.) |
 "The intent of the PDUFA was to speed up the time it took for drugs to be approved, and it has certainly done so. Former FDA official Dr. Janet Woodcock, who was director of FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, has stated that tight deadlines for drug approval were creating "a sweatshop mentality" within the agency.32
The mechanism for speeding things up is very simple: the drug companies pay the FDA directly to evaluate and approve their drugs, to the tune of millions of dollars."- Charles Barber, Comfortably Numb: How Psychiatry Is Medicating a Nation (Get the book.) |
 "Suppose researchers were studying the following question: does reducing vehicular speed save lives? They find that when a car strikes a stone wall at 90 miles an hour, all its occupants perish. The same result occurs when the car hits the wall at 80 mph—and at 70. Conclusion: reducing speed doesn't save lives. (Meanwhile, everyone ignores a small study showing that in a crash at 10 miles per hour, everyone survives."- Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., M.D., Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease (Get the book.) |
 "Carnitine treatment improved walking time, distance, and speed. Treatment also enhanced physical performance, reduced bodily pain, and resulted in a higher quality of life.
Similar results were found in a study involving twenty patients with PVD who were treated with 4 grams per day of L-carnitine or placebo for three weeks. In the group receiving the carnitine, there was a 75 percent greater walking capacity compared to those receiving placebo."- Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D., The Sinatra Solution Metabolic Cardiology (Get the book.) |
 "Following a troop carrier and observing the speed limits—and with the extra time at the checkpoints—how could our driving time have been cut in half? Although the distance between Cairo and St. Catherine's hadn't changed, our experience of time while we traveled it did. It was a fact that was recorded on the wristwatches of every military man, armed guard, and passenger on our bus. It was as if our memories of the day had somehow been squeezed into an experience of half the duration we expected. Where had the rest of the time gone? What had happened, and why?"- Gregg Braden, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief: Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits (Get the book.) "The first was moving his hand through the air with such speed and force that he created the "shock wave" of a sonic boom reverberating against the rock throughout the cavern. (I attempted this on my own, with no luck.) The second feat was the one that I had waited nearly 15 years, traveled halfway around the world, and acclimated to some of the world's highest elevations for 19 days to see. To demonstrate his mastery over the limits of the physical world, Milarepa had placed his open hand against the cave's wall at about shoulder level . . ." - Gregg Braden, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief: Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits (Get the book.) "Big or Small, a Computer Is Always a Computer While computers have gone through a tremendous evolution in size and speed since they burst on the scene in the mid-20th century, in some ways they have changed very little. Whether they fill an entire room or are miniaturized to fit into the palm of our hand, all computers have some things in common. Regardless of its size, for example, a computer will always need hardware, an operating system, and programs to create its output. To shed new light on reality, however, it's important to understand just what these parts of a computer really do." - Gregg Braden, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief: Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits (Get the book.) |
 "Conversely, vitamin D decreases the concentrations of growth factors that speed cell life cycles.
Doctors find vitamin D receptors in higher concentrations in normal prostates than in enlarged prostates or in prostate cancer. In other words, normal prostate tissue is more likely to respond to vitamin D signals for normal growth and development. Benign enlarged prostates have about half as many vitamin D receptors as normal prostates, and prostate cancer cells have a tenth as many vitamin D receptors.
Apparently, abnormal prostates have less capacity to produce "on demand" activated vitamin D."- James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.) "If you could slow the speed of the assembly line, each member of your production team would have more time to complete his task and make fewer mistakes. Cells are like assembly lines. Slow down the cell life cycle, and your body will have fewer errors in cell function and genetic replication, which will reduce the likelihood of malignant transformation. That's the point of no return, when enough critical errors occur that a cell becomes cancerous because it no longer responds to normal regulation." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.) |
 "Some of the kids who used them seemed to be zombies, and others bounced around like speed freaks. So, as Alisa had improved, Liza had weaned her off the Risperdal.
As they waited for the plane to take off, Liza and Bill let Alisa sit and color with a couple of other kids. Then Liza came to take Alisa to her seat, and Alisa started to tantrum. More precisely, in psychiatric jargon, Alisa began to cycle."- Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.) |
| "Gout and pseudogout actually speed up the breakdown of cartilage in osteoarthritis.
The inflammation from these crystals causes swelling and pain?often called "inflammatory osteoarthritis." Flare-ups may be inflammation due to gout or pseudogout that hasn't been diagnosed yet. Often doctors fail to connect pseudogout to imbalanced vitamin D and diet. Making matters worse, inflammation from flare-ups accelerates bone turnover around the inflamed joint and magnifies the problem." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.) |
| "Any intervention that will slow the rate of ATP degradation, accelerate the rate of salvage, or speed the recovery rate of ATP will minimize heart damage and improve cardiac function in chronically hypoxic hearts. For example, when we give "clot-busting drugs" like TPA and streptokinase in the emergency room, the goal is to open the coronary vessel as soon as possible, to restore the flow of blood and oxygen, thereby rescuing the heart so that it can maintain the ATP production that will prevent cell death.
Many heart diseases have dysfunctional energy metabolism at their core." - Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D., The Sinatra Solution Metabolic Cardiology (Get the book.) |

 "Portable blood glucose meters vary in size, speed of reporting, cost, amount of information they can store, and whether they can connect to personal computers. Some even come equipped with an alarm that reminds you to take your sample.
If you've ever wondered why the fingertips are the usual "sticking" collection site, it's because the blood collected there shows changes much more quickly than samples taken from other sites, such as the thigh, upper arm, forearm, or base of the thumb, and thus are more reliable. Changes occur most rapidly after exercise or eating."- Steven V. Joyal, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Diabetes: An Innovative Program to Prevent, Treat, and Beat This Controllable Disease (Get the book.) "If you are using this method to speed up weight loss, we recommend building up to your maximum exercise effort over a six-week period and performing the exercise sessions daily. STRENGTH TRAINING Strength (resistance) training has typically taken a backseat to aerobic exercise and has not been emphasized as a way to improve metabolic function. This is regrettable, because for many people, long duration/low intensity aerobic workouts are just plain boring\ Resistance exercise/strength training has marvelous, often-overlooked benefits for improving metabolic function and blood sugar control." - Steven V. Joyal, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Diabetes: An Innovative Program to Prevent, Treat, and Beat This Controllable Disease (Get the book.) |
 "You can also use healthy already prepared foods to speed up the food preparation process. At the back of this book is a list of recommended brands and product sources as well as spices and seasonings that can provide interesting flavors. (See Purchasing Guidelines, Page 90.)
Eat For Health allows you to gradually make the transition to great health as you adopt a nutritarian eating-style. However, for some people even the moderate changes in Phase One will be dramatic. The Phase One menus will show you how you can eat more high-nutrient foods than you are accustomed to, especially vegetables."- Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Eat For Health: Lose Weight, Keep It Off, Look Younger, Live Longer (2 book set) (Get the book.) |
| "The inflammation that results disrupts the nerve covering, which needs to be intact to speed transmission of electrical impulses. Disrupting the covering greatly slows transmission of electrical impulses, resulting in partial or permanent loss of sensation or muscle function.
In studying worldwide populations, Dr. John Kurtzke of the Veterans Administration Hospital in Washington, D.C., saw more cases of MS in places far removed from the equator, except for those places where people eat a great deal of cold-water fish, which is rich in vitamin D and omega-3 fats—Icelanders, for example." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.) |
 "Nevertheless, modern physicists, such as Alain Aspect and his colleagues in Paris, have demonstrated decisively that the speed of light is not an absolute outer boundary in the subatomic world. Aspect's experiment, which concerned two photons fired off from a single atom, showed that the measurement of one photon instantaneously affected the position of the second photon6 so that it has the same or, as IBM physicist Charles H. Bennett once put it, "opposite luck"7—that is, spin or position."- Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.) |
 "On any given day, one out of four Americans opts for a quick and inexpensive meal at a fast food restaurant, without giving either its speed or its thriftiness a second thought. According to Time magazine, 70 percent of kids ages six to eight think fast food is healthier than home food. Fast food spending by consumers has increased eighteen-fold since 1970. A typical hamburger in 1957 weighed 1 ounce and contained 210 calories. Today, that same hamburger is 6 ounces and packs 618 calories. What's worse: 25 percent of the vegetables eaten in the United States are french fries."- Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.) "In this state, your liver won't process toxins at a normal and necessary speed, thus causing a buildup in your blood and potentially your organs. For instance, women who suffer from problematic premenstrual syndrome may have an unhealthy buildup of estrogen in the blood that has not been effectively removed by the liver. That excess estrogen can then aggravate her hormonal cycle and trigger more painful symptoms of PMS than normal. There are many potential causes of a sluggish liver, in addition to the usual suspects of toxins like heavy metals." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.) "Cruciferous veggies such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts: high sulfur content needed for liver detoxification, shown to speed excretion of cancerous substances from the body ?Raw garlic: its high sulfur content stimulates production of glutathione for liver detoxification; also has been shown to stop the duplication of cancer cells ?" - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.) "The bands don't just increase strength—they help build flexibility, power, balance, and speed. And because they improve circulation, they stimulate cellular fluid flow to move toxins, as well as give your lympathic system a boost. The net result is that these simple, lightweight, inexpensive rubber resistance bands can help you maximize your body's detoxification at the cellular level (not to mention burn off fat, which releases toxins, while increasing lean muscle mass and improving your overall fitness)." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.) |
 "Einstein's most fundamental axiom wasn't correct: at a certain level of matter, things could travel faster than the speed of light. Subatomic particles had no meaning in isolation but could only be understood in their relationships. The world, at its most basic, existed as a complex web of interdependent relationships, forever indivisible.
Perhaps the most essential ingredient of this interconnected universe was the living consciousness that observed it."- Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.) "He'd been dabbling in tachyons, or particles that travel faster than the speed of light. He'd wondered whether tachyons could explain some studies he'd come across showing that animals and plants had the ability to engage in some sort of instantaneous communication, even when separated by hundreds of miles or shielded by a variety of means. Hal had really wanted to find out whether you could use quantum theory to describe life processes." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.) |
 "Toth explains, "When you use recreational drugs like cocaine or speed, it's like putting a blow torch on your delicate brain cells. People who have chronic long-term use of these kinds of drugs tend to lose memory much faster than other people."
Cardiovascular dysfunction can cause memory loss. The blood vessels that carry oxygen and blood and food substances to the brain are stopped, either by a narrowing of those arteries or a blood clot.
"The culprit might also be free radical damage," Toth says. "Free radicals are extremely small ions that are on the loose."- Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.) "My brain speed seems to be faster. I feel like a teenager, just blossoming. I plan a future including research of natural life energies. MICHAEL I used medications for anxiety and depression. I wanted to discontinue medications. My hair was greying. My complexion was dry with bumpy skin. I had nervous twitches. Now I am 99 percent vegan and organic. I juice and exercise. I don't use medications for colitis. Being aware of my mind-body connection has altered my behavior and created a change in my body chemistry. The psychological and emotional changes empowered me." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.) |
