“There could be no greater a heinous crime, than the premeditated withholding of truth from the masses, to the point of their injury or death.”
Having a life-long interest and passion for healing, and after dedicating my life to the study and practice of the healing arts, I have written this book on the single most significant discovery relating to health; the discovery of The Code of Life, in relation to cellular communication, what it means to man-kind, and why those in power want it silenced.

How much is truly known about longevity? Does our government really want all of us to live one hundred healthy years and beyond? Has the anti-aging secret been uncovered and then concealed in the name of power, profit, and control?
Human-kind already possesses the knowledge to live a long, healthy, disease-free existence. The answer has been withheld from us. The preventions and cures for the majority of diseases are known, and the astounding fact is, they are not complex, as we have been led to believe…most are one and the same.
It is an undisputed scientific fact that disease prevention, health, healing, beauty, and anti-aging all begin at the cellular level. The health of your cells dictates the health of your body, and your mind. WE ARE CELLS! Trillions of cells make up our bodies. Every tissue, organ, gland, cartilage, bone, muscle, and nerve, which amounts to every single part of our bodies, are made up of cells.
Author, Dr. Ronald P. Drucker reveals to us that in most cases, “incurable diseases” are not incurable at all, and our “modern medical system” is not providing us with solutions that have been recognized as fact by scientists for decades. The fact is, the cure for most diseases, and the perfect solution to prevention, health, healing, beauty, and anti-aging is already known and available.
The Fountain of Youth, and Health, is not located on some far away island. It is located within each and every one of our cells. It involves perfect cellular health, unrestricted cellular communication, and subsequently, uninhibited/unaltered DNA replication. The language our cells utilize to communicate with each other and the immune system is “The Code of Life.” Vital healing components are needed which metaphorically make up the “symbols” of this cellular language. Against the will of the pharmaceutical drug establishment, it is all about to be revealed to you!
The Ultimate Conflict of Interest
What is going on in our healthcare industry today? Are the large pharmaceutical corporations truly interested in finding cures for disease? Is the pharmaceutical industry, whose profits are based on large segments of the population suffering from major illnesses, interested in eliminating their customer base? I can tell you from over thirty-five years experience in healthcare, including ten years of hospital, clinical laboratory, and medical research projects, that the answer is a resounding…NO!
As a physician using natural means to treat my patients, I have been able to focus my attention on natural and safe alternatives to drugs. The economically lucrative drugs that are approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) at enormous expense, and many of which are eventually pulled off the market due to adverse reactions, are designed to alleviate symptoms, but rarely, if ever, address the cause of the disease.
Is it “Healthcare” or Disease Care?
True “healthcare” would be the care of the very basic unit of life, which as we know is the human cell. This comprehensive care would begin in our very early years, conceivably from conception, involving a system focused on the healthy maintenance of the cells and thus, the non-interference of cellular function, and subsequently unaltered DNA replication. This effective healthcare system would begin before we were born with our pregnant mothers commencing a comprehensive regimen of specific nutrient-targeting to ensure the perfect cellular development of a healthy newborn infant.
What has just been described in the last paragraph could be summed up with the term prevention. Real healthcare implies prevention. As we know, there is no such mainstream medicine system regimen focused from conception, or at anytime for that matter, specifically on the health of our cells. Therefore, there is no specific system of prevention within mainstream medicine and subsequently the use of the term “healthcare” as used by the current establishment is completely inaccurate and misleading.
So what is the system currently in use designed to accomplish? For example, when we experience an ache or pain to the point that it becomes bothersome or unbearable, we make an appointment with our doctor to have a “let’s see.” Our doctor diagnoses (an industry estimated 50% of the time with accuracy) our condition through the various clues of our symptoms and most often prescribes a pharmaceutical medication designed to address those symptoms. Fifty percent of the time it will be the drug approved for the condition. In the overwhelming majority of cases, only the symptoms will be addressed, not the underlying condition or its cause, and in doing so, the symptoms of the disease will be managed at best, while the disease itself progresses. Would the term “disease care” best describe this system? If this correct and accurate term were used to describe this system, no one would partake in the system. No one would be interested in “disease care.” No one would purchase “disease insurance.” No one would be interested in “maintaining their disease.”
In order to market a system to the public whose underlying motivation is the sale of economically lucrative drugs and medical procedures, one must create false atmospheres via the use of soft terms. “Healthcare” and perfect health are what we are all seeking, but this is not what the system is structured to deliver. The problem with the current system is that caring for disease is very profitable, while preventing disease is not. The structure of the entire system is a financial conflict-of-interest in which the patient most often pays with his money, health, time, and eventually his life.
The drug industry contributes heavily to political campaigns which places tremendous pressure on our “representatives” to maintain the status quo of The System. The medical and pharmaceutical industries are the benefactors of illness in America. These are the industries that thrive on the economics of disease. This is the modern day Cartel.
The simplicity of optimal health and disease prevention through the specific support of cellular requirements is the hidden truth which their curtain conceals from public understanding.
In order to effectively market their myriad of harmful concoctions, they must continue to convince us that the problems are complex. They have spent billions in their attempt to convince us of this complexity and for many decades they have been successful. They believe that the masses are ignorant and their smoke and mirror marketing tactics designed to lead the public away from the effective natural solution will be permitted to continue without exposure. They continue to urge us to “ask our doctors about,” their “solutions,” which for the most part are toxic chemicals designed to address the symptoms of the underlying health problems - in essence, problems which they, themselves, have created over decades through their campaign of misinformation. They have suppressed the basic truths of health.
The Pharma/Medical Establishment does not want the public to understand are:
1. Specific nutrient and phytonutrient deficiency (causing cellular starvation and subsequent DNA damage) is the primary factor involving premature aging and degenerative disease.
2. Specific nutrients, phytonutrients, and co-factors in adequate amounts are the prevention and cure to premature aging and most existing diseases.
3. An oxygen-rich, alkaline extracellular environment and the maintenance of the optimum biological terrain is an environment in which disease cannot thrive.
4. Profit-based synthetic drugs or compounds, and synthetic or artificial substances are not what the human body is designed to receive. The overwhelming majority of these substances cause short and long term cellular damage to varying degrees, without addressing root causes of disease.
Having a life-long interest and passion for healing, and after dedicating my life to the study and practice of the healing arts, I have written this book on the single most significant discovery relating to health; the understanding of the function and effect of specific nutritional components in relation to cellular support and communication, disease prevention, disease recovery, and effective anti-aging.
First and foremost, and against the will of The Cartel, the reader will be widely introduced to the phytonutrients, and in particular, natural Aloe polymannan molecules and their diverse healing effects on the human body. These profound healing molecules have been referred to by scientists as “Healing Orchestrators” or “Conductor Molecules.” These, in conjunction with other specific nutrients and phytonutrients become the components which enable cells to communicate with other cells and with the immune system, to perform an entire array of health functions including; the elimination of foreign invaders such as viruses, harmful bacteria, and diseased cells. These special components of communication metaphorically make up the “symbols” of this physiological language. These are the symbols of “The Code of Life” representing a vast and complex physiological science of cells communicating with other cells within our bodies. The power of these molecules to bring astounding benefit to the suffering public is understood by many scientists, and yet in today’s pharmaceutically controlled medical culture, the good news has found little public forum until now.
Secondly, and equally as important, the reader will be widely informed of the fact that these molecules and healing components, along with specific nutrients all taken in adequate quantities are indeed the prevention and cure for most diseases known to man. They are also the most efficient and effective general health, weight control, beauty, and anti-aging solution due to the proven fact that they promote the proper functioning of the human cell, as designed!
I want to emphasize the importance of reading the findings and health benefits listed in this book. In order to form a solid habit in regard to ingesting the vital nutrients daily, we must be consciously aware of the multitude of health benefits we are gaining. This awareness provides strong motivation to form the needed habit, and thus reap the health and longevity rewards. If we are ingesting specific nutrients because we heard they are “The Code of Life,” but we do not really understand most or all of the benefits, we may lose focus and stop. The most important thing to remember about fighting and preventing aging and disease through nutritional cellular support is that it should be done consistently, every day. Obviously, eating good quality food, swallowing a few capsules, or taking some nutrient powder with juice is a small price to pay for quality-of-life and longevity. More good news, depending on your present and ongoing level of health, is that over time, you may be able to taper off the quantity ingested and still receive adequate cellular support.
We all understand what would happen if we put gasoline into the fuel tank of a car with a diesel engine, or vice versa. Needless to say, damage would occur to the engines of both vehicles because we attempted to use a source of energy for which the engines were not designed. The damage would occur quickly and be immediately apparent. Two damaging processes would take place. In both cases, the engines would be starved for the components they need to operate smoothly, while being damaged by components they are not designed for.
Another example would be if we were to attempt to run a high performance engine on 87 octane gasoline, which demands 94 octane by design. In this case the damage would be less noticeable, but would occur over time until the engine was prematurely destroyed. The engine would experience damage and ultimately fail because the fuel utilized was “low-grade” or “inadequate” to meet the demands of the engine’s functions and design.
Although many of us are not familiar with the internal workings of a combustion engine and may think of it as complex, in reality, it is a crude and simplistic invention in comparison to the intricate design of the human body, and in particular, the human cell. The examples relating to engines, fuels, and designs above are elementary and easy for all of us to understand because inherently we know what happens when we go against “The Laws of Design.” As you read on you may be wondering how we as a society have been convinced that we can get away with going against the laws of design in regard to what we put into our bodies. The answer is premeditated ill-design, in the form of clever, misleading, and deceptive marketing (more on this to follow).
The human cell, the very foundation of human life, possesses an intricate and highly sophisticated design. Individual cells are invisible to the naked eye, and yet a multitude of processes occur within them dictating our health, appearance, quality of life, and ultimately our lifespan. The cell contains many components which perform an entire array of vital functions for the body. Within the nucleus of the cell, genetic material (DNA) is the chemical blueprint or master plan for the cell. The cell is the foundation of health and life, and it has specific requirements that must be constantly met in order to avoid cellular starvation, deterioration, pre-mature aging, and ultimately disease.
Most scientists and engineers agree that the human being is the most intricate and amazing design known to the planet. Whether you believe that the creator is “God” or “Nature,” everyone agrees that the designer was not man. Man did not design or create man. Man did not design or create the earth or the universe. Man, regardless of desire or ego, does not possess the knowledge to fully comprehend the complexity of nature or the human blueprint. With each new scientific discovery concerning the human body, we are yet further amazed by the majesty and intricacy of this grand design, obviously conceived by an intelligence far superior to our own.
All the necessary components and nutrients for the sustenance of human life, as well as all living creatures on the planet, were also designed by this Superior Intelligence, not by man.
The current Periodic Table of Elements, used universally in the field of chemistry lists 110 known elements including; gases, solids, liquids, and “synthetics.” Twenty out of the 110 known elements listed are man-made or synthetic. Reflective of man’s ability to create a “superior” element is the fact that ALL TWENTY man-made synthetic elements are either a contamination hazard, radioactive, or both!
A wise person concedes the fact, that for man to claim the ability to create a “superior” design opposed to the natural food sources and healing agents of the Superior Intelligence, for the long term benefit of man, is simply misguided falsehood and foolish arrogance motivated in large by lust for profit.
Many things are marketed to us to ensure profits. Products for internal consumption such as foods, pharmaceuticals, and even some nutritional supplements are made to appear attractive or beneficial, but in many instances, they are not what the human body is designed to receive. Organic/Natural is the design for humans. Humans are not designed for synthetics. They are not what we are designed for. Synthetics are the wrong fuel or energy source for the human body design. Damage inevitably occurs, short and long term, when we attempt to replace natural with most synthetics.
There is an old, well known cliché; “Throw a monkey wrench into the machinery.” It originated from mechanics that would occasionally lose their grip on a tool, such as a monkey wrench. The wrench would fall into a running engine, getting caught in moving parts, causing damage. The cliché infers that if you throw something into a system that does not belong there, you may cause damage or destroy the entire system.
I refer to synthetics, whether drugs or synthetic supplements as “Biological Monkey-Wrenches.” When we introduce these unnatural substances into our bodies, we induce stress upon our entire system until these substances can be eliminated. The cellular damage caused by unnatural, against-the-design substances varies widely from reversible to lethal, and all levels of damage in between.
Many drugs manufactured are originally derived from a natural compound found in nature. Through synthetic molecular alteration, the patentable drug is created. Nearly all drugs have unwanted “side effects,” which are in reality, direct unwanted effects upon the body. These unwanted effects occur due to this unnatural alteration of nature’s original chemical profiles. Natural substances cannot be patented. The pharmaceutical industry attempts to market the impression that their patent-for-profit, synthetic molecular alterations are somehow “superior” or “advanced” in comparison to the healing agents found in nature, created by The Superior Intelligence. In a sublime manner, they attempt to convince us that The Superior Intelligence does not know what is best for us.
Common sense tells us that in order for a treatment to be superior, or even compatible with the human body, it would need to benefit all areas, or specific areas of the body without causing harm to any other area or areas. The presence of these direct unwanted or harmful effects is proof positive that man has failed to accomplish this task. It is rather some men, who do not know what is best for us, or who are simply unwilling to acknowledge fact for reasons of financial gain.
When given some serious thought, is it not amazing that Big Pharma would have the audacity to attempt to frighten the public away from many of the side-effect-free healing compounds found in nature, some of the very compounds used as the basis of their synthetic drugs and products prior to molecular alteration?
Perfect Fuel and Medicine by Design
The perfect human fuels and medicines come from plant-derived foods and are referred to as Phytonutrients. The term phytonutrient, (plant nutrient), is derived from the Greek word phyto, meaning plant, and nutrient, a constituent of food, vital for physiological function. A phytonutrient is a plant-derived natural nutrient. Phytonutrients are biologically active compounds in plant-derived foods that elicit biological activity throughout the body.
There are numerous classes of phytonutrients, many of which can contain scores of different phytonutrients. Many overlap and complement one another, working synergistically to boost total health benefits. I estimate that upwards of 1000 phytonutrients have been identified to date, and many more of these remain yet undiscovered. Some of the more vital forms, many not seen listed on government websites or literature, or classified as phytonutrients are; ajoenes, allylic sulfides, amino acids, anthocyanins, anti-oxidants, betaines, bioflavinoids, capsaicin, carotenoids, catechins, chelating agents, chlorophyll, complex carbohydrates, coumarins, cyclic compounds, enzymes, essential fatty acids, flavonoids, flavonols, flavones, flavanones, gamma-oryzanol glucomannans, glucopolymannans, hydroxycinnamic acids, isoflavones, isothiocyanates, indoles, lignans, limonoids, mannans, methionine reductase, mucopolysaccharides, organic minerals, organic trace minerals, organic vitamins, phenols, phospholipids, phytosterols, polymannans, polyphenols, polysaccharides, plant proteins, resveratrol, saponins, sulfides, thiols, terpenes, and tocopherols to name just a few. Some of those mentioned above are classes, others are subclasses.
Researchers are finding that the same phytonutrients that keep plants free from disease also perform the very same function within our bodies. The list of health benefits is virtually endless and includes cellular fueling and repair, increasing cell life (anti-aging), the inhibition of cancer-producing substances, and the prevention of degenerative diseases, to name just a few. In short, specific phytonutrients found in certain fruits, vegetables, and the plants themselves, work synergistically to protect our health.
Science has proven the effectiveness of this perfect natural human fuel and medicine through countless studies to date. So what would we expect to find concerning the fuel and medicine designed for the human, by the creator of the human?
Misinformation is generated in multiple forms in the attempt to disguise and down-play these scientific facts, one of the most obvious being the misuse of the name phytonutrient itself. If millions of people were not dying, made and kept ill, due to The Pharmaceutical Cartel generated confusion, their attempts of disguising the obvious would almost be amusing.
Despite political and financial pressures placed upon the various government agencies to down-play and disguise these facts, due to the magnitude of the subject (public health, life, and death), they must publish them somewhere so they themselves are covered. Let us examine the way it is done.
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA); Quote:
“The term “phyto” originated from a Greek word meaning plant. Phytonutrients are certain organic components of plants, and these components are thought to promote human health. Fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts and teas are rich sources of phytonutrients. Unlike the traditional nutrients (protein, fat, vitamins, minerals), phytonutrients are not “essential” for life, so some people prefer the term “phytochemical”.
One could have a field-day with this paragraph alone. Compare it to the first paragraph in this section. Notice that in defining the word phytonutrient for the suffering public, somehow they failed to define the word nutrient.
Here are three common definitions of the word nutrient:
1. A constituent of food, vital for physiological function.
2. Any substance that can be metabolized by an organism to give energy and build tissue.
3. A chemical element or compound used in an organism’s metabolism or physiology.
Obviously, each definition of the word nutrient indicates that it is a substance vital for physiological function, or Life.
Now look at the third sentence in the USDA’s paragraph;
“Unlike the traditional nutrients (protein, fat, vitamins, minerals), phytonutrients are not “essential” for life, so some people prefer the term “phytochemical”.
First and foremost, when you see the word “traditional,” used in this context, you can justifiably suspect that the current “traditional” Pharma/Medical Establishment may be largely responsible for the classification.
Secondly, why would “some people” who somehow forgot to define the word nutrient, for the suffering public, define phytonutrients as not “essential” for life?
In addition, why would “some people” prefer to use the term “phytochemical,” when most know that even though everything on earth is “chemical,” the word chemical frightens a majority of the public away from consumption?
Could “some people” be the pharmaceutical industry and/or those who do their bidding?
There is one more interesting reason why they must keep the term phytonutrients separate from “traditional nutrients” such as vitamins and minerals…because the overwhelming majority of “vitamins and minerals” on the market today are synthetic, and not plant-derived at all (see more about this later in this book). The pharmaceutical industry is also responsible for the manufacturing of many of these synthetics as well.
For now, let us have a look at the various statements below. Although these government statements are purposely worded mildly as to not interfere too much with big-business, let us decide for ourselves if phytonutrients are “non-essential” for our lives or the lives of our loved ones.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: “Current evidence collectively demonstrates that fruit and vegetable intake is associated with improved health, reduced risk of major diseases, and possibly delayed onset of age-related factors.”
The World Cancer Research Fund and the American Institute for Cancer Research: “Evidence of dietary protection against cancer is strongest and most consistent for diets high in vegetables and fruits.”
Food and drug Administration (FDA): “Diets rich in fruits and vegetables may reduce the risk of some types of cancer and other chronic diseases.”
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA): “While these phytonutrients aren’t “essential” by traditional definitions, they apparently reduce risks of diseases of aging.”
USDA: “Phytonutrients Take Center Stage”; “Now there’s a new surge of discovery around health-enhancing compounds in plant foods known as phytonutrients.”
USDA: “Indeed, cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s disease may plague the middle-aged and elderly because of our limited knowledge of phytonutrients” …”Certain flavonoids in blueberries may actually reverse nerve cell aging. And a wide array of compounds in fruits and vegetables may protect cell components against oxidative damage as well as vitamins C or E.”
USDA: “Plant foods contain biologically active components beyond those defined as essential nutrients, such as thousands of anti-oxidant phytochemicals that impart health benefits beyond the basic nutrition for an intended population.”
International Food Information Council (IFIC): “Plant foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains contain many components that are beneficial to human health. Research supports that some of these foods, as part of an overall healthful diet, have the potential to delay the onset of many age-related diseases.”
IFIC: “A recent review of current literature suggests that fruits and vegetables in combination have synergistic effects on antioxidant activities leading to greater reduction in risk of chronic disease, specifically for cancer and heart disease.”
IFIC: “Most research indicates that there are overall health benefits from antioxidant-rich foods consumed in the diet.”
IFIC: “Reinforced by current research, the message remains that antioxidants obtained from food sources, including fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, are potentially active in disease risk reduction and can be beneficial to human health.”
IFIC: “Antioxidants, by their very nature, are capable of stabilizing free radicals before they can react and cause harm, in much the same way that a buffer stabilizes an acid to maintain a normal pH. Because oxidation is a naturally occurring process within the body, a balance with antioxidants must exist to maintain health.”
IFIC: “An increasing body of evidence suggests beneficial effects of the antioxidants present in grapes, cocoa, blueberries, and teas on cardiovascular health, Alzheimer’s disease, and even reduction of the risk of some cancers.”
Ohio State University, Family and Consumer Sciences: “Although phytochemicals are not yet classified as nutrients, substances necessary for sustaining life, they have been identified as containing properties for aiding in disease prevention. Phytochemicals are associated with the prevention and/or treatment of at least four of the leading causes of death in the United States — cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension. They are involved in many processes including ones that help prevent cell damage, prevent cancer cell replication, and decrease cholesterol levels.”
The published statements in regard to the benefits of phytonutrients could fill this book, therefore, we will stop here.
For the benefit of our health, let us now intelligently define the term phytonutrients:
A phytonutrient is a plant-derived, biologically active natural nutrient, essential and vital for optimum health, longevity, physiological function, and the prevention of diseases. They include all those mentioned in the second paragraph of this section, and so many more. Additionally, since plant derived natural vitamins, minerals, amino acids, complex carbohydrates, enzymes, co-factors, etc., are also plant-derived nutrients, this should place them in the phytonutrient (plant nutrient) category as well. All of them are phytonutrients, all prevent disease and/or promote health, and therefore, all are essential. A synthetic of any kind is not a phytonutrient. Should this be widely understood, it would End The Manufactured Confusion.
It is almost numbing to think that Big Pharma’s deceptive marketing of their “cure image” over the last hundred years has been so effective that Anyone, scientist or lay person, would be surprised to learn that the preventions and the cures for diseases are in the plants.
Natural or “organic” vitamins, minerals, and nutrients are of biological origin. They are plant-derived nutrients (phytonutrients). In other words, they originate from a natural plant source. The plant’s root hairs pull inorganic nutrients and minerals (the non-digestible form) from the water and soil, and through a chemical process involving photosynthesis, are combined with organic molecules within the plant to form the organically bound nutrients. This is the form of food and medicine that we have been designed to utilize.
Why is the plant designed to extract inorganic earth minerals and nutrients from the soil and convert them to organically bound phytonutrients? The plant is preparing the nutrient in an absorbable form for consumption by another life form, such as humans or animals.
Amazing, is it not? A plant is a “living machine” of sorts, designed by a Supreme Intelligence to provide absorbable and digestible “living nutrition” to sustain us, and natural medicines to protect and heal us. Has a plant ever been described to you in this manner? This is one function of a food bearing plant. Providing oxygen for us to breath is yet another.
Herein lies the modern-age dilemma; if the mineral or nutrient is no longer in the soil, it cannot be in the plant, and those plant constituents or phytonutrients normally made from the inorganic soil matter, such as vitamins, enzymes, and co-factors, subsequently cannot be produced within the plant either.
Soil depletion, chemical contamination, and pre-mature harvesting (green-harvesting) are the culprits of our present day low-grade/nutrient poor food supplies. We are running on “87 octane” when our engines are designed to receive 94! The difference between the two numbers, 87 and 94, in our simple analogy does not seem vast; however, the difference between a nutrient poor food supply and adequate nutrition is the difference between prolonged cellular life and pre-mature cellular death.
Damaging and Misleading Terminology
Currently within the U.S. Government and current medical community, it is “officially recognized” that there are at least 40 individual nutrients that have been proven, without a doubt, to be essential for human life. However, history has shown us that millions die while waiting for official recognition, often of the scientifically obvious.
Aside from man-made synthetic, radioactive, and inert elements, the universe is composed of approximately 77 naturally occurring atomic elements found within the Periodic Table of Elements used in chemistry. All of these elements are naturally present within the human body, and utilized if made available. They exist within all plant and animal life. They are found in the waters of the oceans, the soils of the land, and within the atmosphere we breathe. They are the components of life on this planet. They are the wonderful keys of health, by the Grand Design of The Superior Intelligence.
There are quite possibly thousands of naturally occurring phytonutrients found within an organic natural food supply, many yet to be discovered. These miraculous compounds include complex carbohydrates, amino acids, fatty acids, enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and an entire array of co-factors. Co-factors are substances that need to be present in addition to an enzyme for a certain physiologic reaction to take place.
Our choices boil down to a stark simplicity. We can continue to deteriorate while limiting ourselves to the “officially recognized” nutrients, recognized by a hierarchal establishment whose financial-based incentive lies in the delay of recognition, or we can heed to the overwhelming scientific literature (and common sense) which repeatedly shows the benefits of these natural, powerful, yet harmless nutrients, and thus benefit accordingly. Most would agree that suffering, while waiting for more of the essential nutrients to be “recognized” by the medical-drug cartel, already understood by the scientific community, is not the logical answer to health.
As you will learn, there exists an entire multitude of nutrients scientifically shown to be beneficial to health and longevity. Therefore, the term essential should not be the guideline or goal, but rather the provision of an optimum supply of nutrients.
The intelligent course of action to obtain optimum health, is clearly the consumption of the widest possible spectrum of naturally occurring, side-effect-free nutrients and phytonutrients available, in their purest bio-available form.
The arrogant mentality which would ignore science and infer that these components of life are of no useful consequence, because they are not yet “officially recognized,” is the same schizophrenic mentality, upon befuddlement of purpose, that implies these things are useless if we do not fully understand them. This is the mentality which infers that drugs are more beneficial than consistent, diverse, and quality nutrition. It is this dangerous and dictatorial mentality at the helm of “health care” that has driven us far into an age of rapidly compounding degenerative diseases.
There exist many other damaging terms as well, curiously inserted within the common health vocabulary which are clearly counter productive to public well being.
For example, an accepted definition of an “essential nutrient” is; a nutrient required for normal body functioning that cannot be synthesized by the body and must be obtained from a dietary source. This is true, yet government agencies currently list approximately forty, while scientists have discovered and continue to discover hundreds, if not thousands of natural occurring life enhancing nutrients.
The accepted definition of a so-called “non-essential nutrient” is one that can be synthesized by the cell if absent from the food. In other words, under ideal circumstances the body can produce it, assuming there are adequate levels of the “essential nutrients,” enzymes, and co-factors necessary for its production. In today’s world of nutrient poor foods, this is assuming a great deal. Both these classifications have been accepted and perpetuated by the Pharmaceutical/Medical Establishment.
They persist to perpetuate arbitrary, inadequate, misleading, and damaging concepts. There is absolutely no guarantee in today’s world that we are receiving adequate amounts of these “non-essential nutrients” which in reality are essential. The fact is, we are not receiving them in significant quantities. The current Plague of degenerative disease is firm confirmation of this.
Due to the severe lack of phytonutrients, including plant derived minerals, vitamins, and other co-factors, all present for millions of years, but now no longer significantly present in our food supply, we may not be able to adequately synthesize the other substances that are no less essential to health but which have been deceptively termed “non-essential.”
An example of this is the termed “non-essential” amino acid proline, which is required for the synthesis of collagen. Without adequate amounts of proline and vitamin C, the production of collagen from pro-collagen is inhibited. Proline, lysine, green tea extract, and vitamin C inhibited the spread of cancer cells in an experimental study.
A much more realistic and less misleading definition for the term “essential nutrient” would be; any and all nutrients required by the human cell, and thus the human body, to perform any and all vital physiologic functions. Herein lies the problem for The Cartel; defined in this manner, an emphasis of importance and criticality becomes apparent to the public, and the focus and reliance upon profitable drugs as “the solution” diminishes.
The term “non-essential nutrient” is one that, in reality, has little or no relevance in today’s nutrient-poor society. All nutrients required by the human cell are essential, and we can no longer afford to rely on the body to synthesize nutrients where co-factor components may no longer exist. In addition, who within the medical or scientific community could pretend to understand the functional roles of all of the many hundreds, if not thousands, of phytonutrients and co-factors, (known and unknown) and just what classification of “importance” they should be assigned?
Another dangerous and misleading term is “semi-essential.” For example, there are four amino acids considered to be “semi-essential” for children because the metabolic pathways that synthesize these amino acids are not fully developed. Woe to the child that is missing or deficient in one or more of these “semi-essential amino acids!” Since there is no guarantee that any child is receiving adequate levels of these in their diet, and they are not producing them themselves, these amino acids for children are not “semi-essential,” but quite certainly essential! Missing nutrients during childhood development potentially provide an open door for the manifestation of diseases in childhood and the later appearance in adulthood. It is all economics. If big business can spare the expense of adding these four amino acids to an infant’s formula, the industry cost savings are significant. The term semi-essential should be eliminated as well in regard to nutrients.
There are two “officially recognized” essential fatty acids; alpha linolenic (Omega III) and linolenic (Omega VI). Under optimum conditions, your body can manufacture the other fatty acids required for health if you have adequate amounts present of these two essential fatty acids. It has been estimated that an optimum ratio of dietary Omega III to Omega VI fatty acids would not exceed 1:3. The reality is that most Americans consume a dietary ratio estimated to be 1:20! We are falling considerably short on Omega III. Furthermore, due to the nutrient and trace nutrient poor diet that is consumed by most, it is highly likely that the conversion of the inadequate levels of essential fatty acids will not likely be converted to the other necessary fatty acids, and therefore, we are deficient in them as well!
We would all prefer optimum health and a disease-free existence. As we can now see clearly, what others consider “non-essential” for us is Not what we would consider non-essential for ourselves. Merely relying upon the “officially recognized” essentials, may be engineered survival, but not engineered quality of life. Interestingly, this surviving but suffering public certainly creates an endless demand for expensive pharmaceuticals and medical procedures.
In simple terms;
Perfect nutritional cellular support prevents and can eliminate most disease and premature aging.
Perfect nutritional cellular support, over time, also minimizes or prevents the need for expensive drugs and invasive surgical procedures.
Thus, Prevention eliminates the need for the bulk of pharmaceuticals.
Would Big Pharma like to hinder or even eliminate Prevention?
I will leave this question open for you.
How did the term “side effects” come about?
Should we attend a magic show at the local fair, a magician may entertain us with illusions. Illusions are tricks designed to cause us to believe something is, or has occurred, that in reality is not or has not. The basis of a good trick or illusion is to distract the viewer while the reality of the situation goes unnoticed. Humans are designed with two eyes situated in the front of their skulls. We look forward when we think and focus. We usually focus on what is being presented directly in front of us. We are easily distracted, sometimes with the use of props. We cannot focus clearly on any subject using our peripheral vision. When something is off to the side and not emphasized, we tend to miss it. Things we miss or do not see clearly, we cannot focus on. Sometimes, things we do not see, we may not believe really exist.
Way back when aspiring masters of illusion, the pharmaceutical marketeers, first realized their products carried harmful and sometimes lethal effects, they were presented with a daunting dilemma. As they do today, they desired desperately to peddle their synthetic concoctions in the largest possible volume, regardless of consequence to the public. Their self-serving, profit-driven desire was to minimize the focus on the harmful properties within their synthetic products. Certainly, they must have initially wished they could just push these marketing dilemmas off the table, or at least, off to the side. Resorting to psychology, they soon discovered that inference is often a master of problem solving. They realized if they would just infer or imply that these harmful effects are “really not a big deal” by simply labeling them as side effects, then, the public would perceive them as insignificant and not what would be truly expected of the drug. The power of suggestion! Brilliant!! - Yet in this case, completely uninspiring. Once again, in reality, “side effects” are the direct unwanted effects of the drug.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!
Today, when most people hear the term side effects, their perception and hope is that the drug will have a good chance to “work,” or even “get a running start” before the side effects have a chance to show up, heck- if they will even show up at all! The stark reality is; the biological monkey wrench is causing damage to the pristine cellular machine from the moment we swallow the synthetic substance. The mere hope of the drug “working” is a Grand Illusion in itself as well. Ninety-nine percent of all drugs marketed only mask (cover-up) symptoms of underlying problems. They do not “work” at all (see Chapter 5, The Current State of Modern Medicine).
These are The Masters of Distraction. Diverting public attention away from the reality of prevention and healing is the crux of their illusion. Obviously, prevention and healing should be intelligently addressed through cellular support by the natural means for which we are designed.
While modern symptom relief may have its temporary place to help us cope while suffering pain, dysfunction from illness or injury, symptom relief should not be the mainstay of “disease care” which it has forcefully become. Common sense confirms this, yet this is the current portrait of “healthcare,” painted by these illusionists. Apparently, we are not supposed to be paying close attention.
Ironically, the vast majority of medications treat only symptoms and possess no curative powers. If a person heals at all, it is due to time and the body’s innate healing processes. This is one important fact the pharmaceutical industry does not want emphasized; namely that given the proper natural resources, barring overwhelming trauma, intoxification, or infection, the body can and will heal itself!
I refer to the “drug-insanity” to which the modern day medical patient falls victim, as; Symptom Relief Roulette. History has shown that the drugs “approved” by the FDA (The Food and Drug Administration) are in many cases, no safer than those made in the basements and garages of less than ideal citizens, and often render lethal and damaging effects far greater. Many volumes could be written on this subject and the financial conflicts of interest existing within a bureaucracy intended to protect the public.
The result of decades of manufactured public blind faith in this approval system, in addition to the blind faith in practitioners who have forcibly become little more than Cartel sales persons, has rendered the masses perfect clients of Mr. Big. Remember Mr. Big? He was the villain in the movie “Live and Let Die,” who was clever enough to make his drugs easily obtainable until his customers just could not cope without them. Then he dramatically raised the price!
The Live and Let Die mentality of The Cartel has such confidence in the public’s blind faith, that they feel more than comfortable marketing the ridiculous. The television ads at present are no less than hilarious. Currently, they are telling us to take a pill rather than be annoyed with the prospect of having to urinate between baseball innings. If you feel a tingling in your legs, it is not because your body is telling you a circulation problem may exist and that you need to get more exercise, oh no, you presumably have “restless leg syndrome,” and your only salvation also lies in a pill. Unfortunately, this pill may at the very least induce uncontrollable gambling urges, in conjunction with extremely vivid, horrifically violent and brutal nightmares (all documented side-effects). If you suffer from osteoporosis (low bone mineral density), do not concern yourself with calcium and mineral supplementation - certainly not. Just pop the latest synthetic masterpiece, linked to osteonecrosis of the jaw, causing bone tissue to die and never regenerate, and be done with it! If you would like to quit smoking, never mind will-power, your flavor-of-the-month awaits in a doosie that is likely, according to their winking tortoise, to send you into fits of chronic vomiting. Take all five together and you could sit in your chair for hours, feeling no tingles, passing no fluids, unable to rise, unable to speak, and vomiting on yourself in the name of modern medicine. Your bookie screaming over the cell phone has the best advice of all; “Whatever you do, don’t fall asleep!”
Possibly they could all come up with a pill to take care of the “rare but serious side effect” they don’t seem to want to talk about. Maybe it is among those that do not reveal themselves right away. Could it be one of those the FDA does not require announcing to the silly unassuming consumer?
Losing this dangerous game of health roulette is not always immediately apparent. Many times, the cellular damage caused by these synthetic concoctions may not surface for months or even years. When the damage does inevitably surface, you can be wholly certain that the traditional medical community will blame it on genetics (“your aunt Millie or uncle Frank”), your life style, or they may just shrug their shoulders and tell you; “We really cannot determine, with any degree of certainty, what has caused your illness, but fortunately we have an entire slew of wonderful new drugs we can try out, and see what happens.”
In most cases, you will simply never know what the “side effects” have done to your health, but you can be certain of one thing; no one producing any drug will voluntarily step forward and take responsibility, and the “casino” won’t be comping your room.
Again, much of the “need” for Symptom Relief Roulette could easily be avoided. Our health care system, if properly restructured, would profit enormously, not by being a self-preserving drain on the patient, but by providing true heath care with the main focus on prevention.
Most published “controversy” in regard to vitamins, minerals, and nutrients disseminates directly or indirectly from the Pharma/Medical Establishment or the marketing departments of various firms attempting to cast apprehension on competing products. How do they frighten us away from what is good for us – what was designed for us, and lure us towards harmful synthetic products-for-profit?
The key tool used is misinformation. For example, they will simply publish an article about “aluminum” without defining whether they are speaking about the organic or inorganic form. The public hears, “aluminum is bad” and they avoid products containing both organic and inorganic aluminum. The more they can make nature look “potentially harmful,” the better their toxin laden pharmaceuticals appear. The tactics are profitable and the result over time on public perception, and consequently public health, is a manufactured disaster.
Organic aluminum is present in many common fruits and vegetables such as bananas, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Inorganic aluminum is a toxic and potentially harmful metal. The plant has processed the inorganic mineral because we need the organic mineral. You can not die eating organically grown bananas, cucumbers, and tomatoes. You can only become healthier!
Another classic example is the attack on natural Vitamin E and other naturally derived vitamins. In organic chemistry there are substances known as “stereoisomers.” Basically, there may be two different forms of a substance (natural and synthetic) which may have the same number and types of atoms, but whose atomic arrangements in space are different.
There were misguided “experiments” conducted, using only an isolated version of synthetically produced vitamin E (a mixture of DL-alpha tochopherol acetate) in high amounts. None of the other seven naturally occurring components of vitamin E were added. The experiments were conducted using a synthetic vitamin E, therefore, any possible adverse reactions from these experiments are worthless and expected, because in nature, the other seven components in the E “complex” would be present. The “adverse reactions” were highly publicized by the mainstream medical community. They conveniently failed to inform the public that they were using synthetically produced vitamin E. They made nature look “potentially harmful” to the unsuspecting public - Mission accomplished! They did not go as far as to warn against almonds, avocado, olives, and spinach - all wonderful sources of natural Vitamin E. These types of covert and diabolical side shows are a flagrant abuse of the public trust and inevitably culminate in the deterioration of public health!
Another published “study” was carried out using dehydrated eggs which inevitably showed an increase in cholesterol levels after consumption. Nowhere was it mentioned that dehydrated powered eggs contain oxidized cholesterol, which was the cause of the elevation in abnormal lipids. Thus, “eggs” were labeled as the culprits for raising cholesterol levels. Who would eat rotten eggs containing rancid fat, except unsuspecting pawns in a misguided experiment designed to perpetuate misinformation to confuse and frighten the public? Typically, eggs do not raise cholesterol levels. They are a wonderful source of protein and other beneficial nutrients.
Tricks and misinformation in published “health articles,” which appear to be written by unbiased and reputable authors backed by big business interests, often misdirect us from what is good. They are indirectly one of the leading causes of the rising rates of degenerative diseases.
“The Third World War is a global misinformation war lead by the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical investment business with disease against all mankind.” Dr. Matthias Rath.
The wonderful and positive news which I am about to share with you can and will change your life. In all probability it will also extend your life if you take it to heart and take simple action. Unfortunately, before the reader can benefit from the positive, to a significant degree, he or she must understand the dark side of the current “healthcare” system.
According to the U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Center for Health Statistics; In 2004 Heart Disease, Cancer and Stroke are the #1, #2, and #3 leading causes of death in the United States.
In an article in The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), Dr. Barbara Starfield of the Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health reported up to 225,000 deaths per year in the U.S. from iatrogenic causes, which rank these deaths as the #3 killer. (Iatrogenic death is a term defining patient death as a direct result of treatments by a physician, whether from misdiagnosis of the ailment, or adverse drug reactions used to treat the illness. Drug reactions are the most common cause of iatrogenic death).
Although an argument seems to exist as to who rightfully receives credit for the show position, (#3), concerning hundreds of thousands of needless deaths, the diseases or the doctors, one thing is curious for certain: As of the printing of this publication, the public is unable to access this information on the American Medical Association web-site. It is labeled; “Restricted.”
Many familiar with this subject insist that the Pharma/Medical establishment is the Number One (#1) cause of death due to their failure to inform the patient about the truths of health. For this reason, they argue, The Establishment is responsible, directly or indirectly, for every death involving disease which may have been prevented or cured, had the patient been properly informed. They base their argument for this responsibility on The Establishment’s dissemination of misinformation about true health, which is a direct violation of the doctor-patient relationship based on trust. Most doctors are not aware of, or perpetrating any conspiracy, they are simply being misled.
As you read the information to follow, it may become more than apparent that if the American Medical Association (AMA) would allow doctors to PROPERLY instruct patients in regard to health, over time we would see no diseases outranking accidents, drastic reductions in all disease figures across the board, and very little deaths if any caused by doctors.
To give credit where credit is due, probably the greatest technological advance in modern medicine is the treatment for crisis situations. Surgical procedures have been developed that accomplish miraculous results. Where would we be, for example, without the skilled emergency room doctor, surgeon, and staff when we are burned, poisoned, or injured by accident? Emergency surgery can be life saving in the case of heart attack, stroke, or the removal of a tumor to name just a few.
Unfortunately, we have been conditioned to rely on drugs and surgery to correct the majority of our ills. The need for most surgeries could certainly be avoided in the first place if the patient was not permitted to deteriorate for decades due to misinformation and a complete lack of prevention.
“The doctor of the future will give no medicine but will interest his patient in the human frame, in diet and the cause and prevention of disease.” Thomas Edison
“Let your food be your medicine, and your medicine be your food.” Hippocrates – “The Father of Medicine.”
Most doctors practicing today, regardless of their specific field, are wonderful caring individuals. It is the entrenched profit-based policies of The Establishment system which are to blame for the miserable track record of modern medicine…not the doctors.
