Tutankhamun - Part 2 The Five Big Mistakes Number One - The pharmacy and over-the-counter guides should be examined with jaundiced eyes. Prescriptions are money makers for doctors, pharmacists, surgeons, pathologists, and those recovering from previous medicines, potions, and lotions. Number Two - Milk, cheeses, and eggs are very high in fats and hip fractures. Number Three - Sugars and chemical sweeteners are ideal for energy, energy slumps, too much and too little blood sugar, and fat building. Those who are dead in the head are living at the genius level by combining #2 and #3. Number Four - Flour power has more delicious items and shorter lifespans than we realize. Warm biscuits with floury gravy on top will guarantee enormous weight gains quickly with Sweet Tea. Flour begets breads, cookies, pizzas, exotic combinations that fail to see white flour just a little more virtuous than sugar. Number Five - The worst grease is pushed onto and into chicken, beef, bacon, and fish. Some meat is good but not at the level served on the grills of McDonald and cooked at home with expensive beef.  The Four Big Recoveries A. Greens! What we hated as children is now revealed as the foundation of nutrition. Cows grow big and strong, but they do not eat beef. They eat greens, which use their fiber as the place for combining complex nutrition with low levels of sugar, grease, flour, etc. Leafy green vegetables are satisfying and astonishing in their value. B. Fruits! Here is a laugh. Some people fear raw fruit for being sugary. But lo - fruits counter that by providing fiber. Others complain that bananas will have only 10% of the desired ingredient, but banana eaters can three (3) and boost that nutritional level easily, satisfying hunger. C. Vegetables! These were much loathed in my tender youth. Dessert was always present, so "Eat your vegetables! Now!" was a bit testy, coming from parents who reminded us of the Great Depression...daily. After a lifetime of leveraging desserts, I tried micro-waving a big box of frozen string beans, with a tiny bit of butter, chopped up with a steak knife. Wow! That was delicious, satisfying, and blush-worthy. D. Walnuts, Spices, and Ground Flaxseed. Small Wonders! Raw, fresh Walnuts are delicious and effective in reducing bad cholesterol. To prove this, I ate vanilla ice cream every day because I knew raw fresh walnuts were good for me. The doctor said, "Your cholesterol is down, but you are now diabetic." At the next visit my blood sugar and weight began to go down. Cholesterol continued down. I had an unread Fuhrman in my library and was reading it. Shocked! Amazing! Parents were correct! Feeling much better. The doctor said later that I was down 30 pounds (215lb down to 185lb). He said, "Nobody does that, they just talk about losing 30 pounds." I continued down to 171lb, almost 45 pounds lost.  |
