Epigenetics Emotions and Healing Disease 2011 Theresa Dale The Wellness Center www wellnesscenter net California College of Natural Medicine www cconm com Have you ever heard someone say I m sick and tired They probably are or will be Chronic heightened emotional states create a perfect breeding ground for illness In was through my practice with thousands of people that I noted the increasingly obvious relationship between one s mental focus on negative thinking emotions resistance to experiencing feelings and disease Thousands of years before Epigenetics and Psychoneuroimmunology PNI the Chinese Five Element Theory and Body Clock has lead the way to understanding the relationship between emotions and disease The theory of the Five Elements or Wu Xing is an ancient system dating back to the 4th century BC Wu means five and while the Chinese word xing is often translated as element The Five Elements are symbolic for the different phases or primal forces within the universe nature and our bodies Each element is also attributed to a certain personality archetype Knowing which element s predominates our personalities can help further insight into our lives and relationships The Five Element theory describes how the different organ systems are interrelated and is used in traditional Chinese medicine to diagnose patterns of disharmony and disease This diagnostic tool connects meridians of the body to emotions organs and glands In turn each emotion has a corresponding electromagnetic energy pattern Since acupuncture meridians are energy channels corresponding to organs and each organ stores specific emotions we can easily see the relationship between disease and our thoughts identities and belief systems Psychoneuroimmunology PNI s major focus has been the study of stress and how the body s stress response relates to the emotions of anxiety fear guilt anger and sadness weaken the immune system interfere with healing and even cause disease For physical health and wellbeing we need to be able to effectively release stressful emotions from the body and cultivate a more balanced state The immune system and the brain talk to each other through signaling pathways and they are the two major adaptive systems of the body Two major pathways that are involved in this cross talk the Hypothalamicpituitary adrenal axis HPA axis and the sympathetic nervous system SNS The activation of SNS during an immune response might be aimed to localize the inflammatory response The body s primary stress management system is the HPA axis The HPA axis responds to physical and mental challenge to maintain homeostasis in part by controlling the body s cortisol level The rapidly expanding fields of PNI Epigenetics have sound answers to healing the root cause of disease In times of stress a negative message absorbs into our unconscious mind we reinforce these by focusing on them for some period of time When you negatively judge yourself you are reinforcing even instructing your unconscious mind to persist with the behavior Research tells us that this information is then transmitted to all our cells Our cellular intelligence is designed to self heal but most patients aren t aware of this fact Moreover every time we think about something we don t want we actually draw it to us A healthy internal environment includes empowering
ANMA identities which stimulate positive belief systems and emotions As Carl Jung s research revealed a persona is an identity unconscious pre existent disposition we hold which we present to the outside world This persona propagates beliefs which in turn stimulate emotions Most identities are unconscious and specific ones may be connected to genetic predispositions Understanding Why Patients Experience Stress Clearly stress is the uncomfortable gap between a how we would like our life to be and b how it actually is If this gap is persistent and growing despite our efforts to reduce it the distress becomes acute Understanding Epigenetics In biology epigenetics is the study of changes in phenotype appearance or gene expression caused by mechanisms other than changes in the underlying DNA sequence hence the name epi Greek over above genetics The study of the molecular mechanisms by which environment controls gene activit yreferring to heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alteration in DNA sequence There are two primary and interconnected epigenetic mechanisms DNA methylation and covalent modification of histones In addition it is also becoming apparent that RNA is intimately involved in the formation of a repressive chromatin state Traditional science has believed that our genes are fixed and that nothing can change genetic determinism Conversely the new biology of epigenetics is proving that cells are responsive to their environment and that these responses reach deep into the internal structure of the cell including the DNA It is proven that cells have a dynamic cellular intelligence research indicates that genes are being turned on and off based on environmental factors What is most exciting and empowering is that if the environment that supports the disease is eliminated and a new healthier environment replaces it the predisposition for the genetic disease will not be supported and it will not manifest The discovery that cells are responding to the internal environment of our Page 7 thoughts beliefs and feelings gives all of us founded hope that changing our behaviors literally produces biological changes on the cellular level Epigenetic research reveals the following Genetics are controlled by perception of our environment NOT genes Genes do not control who you are nor your biological expression Genes adapt to your beliefs and identities Genes cannot turn themselves on or off the organism changes to adapt to the environment Lets review another potential link between epigenetic processes and disease called Methylation Methylation is the passing of a chemical fragment called a methyl group a carbon atom linked to three hydrogen atoms from one molecule to another This chemical tag acts as an all important signal and structural modification throughout our bodies Mitchell 1998 Although there are many uses of methylation DNA methylation is one of the essential and one of the most important uses of methyl groups If methylation of DNA is limited or prevented mouse embryos won t develop and life just stops Li et al 1992 DNA methylation was the first epigenetic alteration to be observed in cancer cells Hypermethylation of CpG islands at tumour suppressor genes switches off these genes whereas global hypomethylation leads to genome instability and inappropriate activation of oncogenes and transposable elements It appears that genomic DNA methylation levels which are maintained by DNMT enzymes are delicately balanced within cells overexpression of DNMTs is linked to cancer in humans and their deletion from animals is lethal Furthermore methyl cytosine is capable of spontaneously mutating in vivo by deamination to give thymine Indeed 37 of somatic p53 gene mutations and 58 of germ line mutations occur at methyl CpGs and these mutations are strongly implicated in the cause of cancer A number of factors can influence the DNA methylation levels of a cell without requiring a change in genomic DNA sequence

Certain Food Toxins Revealing the Role They Have in Autoimmune Disease By ELIZABETH ANNE DELANEY Thesis MAY 22 2019 In this paper I am investigating the science of how certain food toxins can contribute to an AID I am not delving into the science against sugar CAFO meats dairy or bad fats I hope that from this paper you will understand why removing these food toxins is so advisable for those with an AID To do that I will prove the converse how these food toxins are contributing to AID by inciting our immune systems and inducing increased intestinal permeability IIP I am going to start by explaining briefly what AID is how it is diagnosed how the conventional medical system treats it and lastly its causations from a more functional medicine approach Next we will discover why IIP and Gut Dysbiosis GD are at the roots of AID and what causes these dysfunctions I will continue with a summary of the immune system and how it works Then I will cover each of the food toxins revealing the role they have in the development of AID Finally I will give my opinion on these food toxins and what the Bible has to say on them indirectly The bulk of my information will be coming from Dr Sarah Ballantyne s book The Paleo Approach Dr Sarah became an advocate of the paleo diet after experiencing her health problems that had been plaguing her since a kid disappear after only months on it She uses her extensive knowledge in innate immunity inflammation and epithelial cell biology to give the scientific backing for the Paleo Approach model The model for this paper came from her book I will also pull from Dr Alessio Fasano s pioneering work in the discovery of zonulin and how gluten is connected with IIP and AID continued in full version Introduction to Toxic Lectins Lectins are carbohydrate binding proteins present in all plants and all life forms as well The problematic ones are a subset known as toxic lectins specifically prolamins and agglutinins These are an issue because they are difficult to digest known to interact strongly with the brush border of the intestine can activate the immune system can increase intestinal permeability 26 In terms of the toxic lectins present in edible seeds although their name suggests that they are highly toxic they do not cause death upon consumption Rather over time their toxic actions build up Sometimes it is fast as with Crohn s disease but other times their effects may not even be recognized for a while Partly because some prolamins only affect those with specific genes usually found in autoimmune disease AID ironically Not killing us right away makes it difficult to track their actions but their toxicity is no less a problem 26 Let us look at the prolamins and their effects first Prolamins Prolamins are present in all grains pseudo grains and legumes They are storage proteins and make up a high number of the proteins that are necessary for the germination of a seed Prolamins function as storage proteins in plants There are many different prolamins all characterized by their high content of the amino acid proline 27 It is estimated that prolamins make up 50 of the protein in grains some have more and others less 27 Can we digest this protein our digestive enzymes are not good at breaking apart proline rich proteins into individual amino acids 27 They end up partially digested and yet can still pass through our barrier thereby damaging the enteryocytes28 the cells that make up our intestinal gut wall and or activating our immune system in the process Prolamins can
Page 11 ANMA irritate your gut lining to the point that it becomes permeable I believe there s a genetic predisposition that factors into how readily intestinal permeability does or does not occur If these undigested proteins get out of your digestive tract and into your system your body responds with an immune response and systemic inflammation 51 Several fragments of gliadin gluten protein have been well characterized in terms of their effect on the gut barrier and their ability to activate both the innate and adaptive immune systems 28 Gliadin is the prolamin present in wheat but some others are zein in corn avenin in oats orzenin in rice etc Much of what we know about prolamins and their effects comes from studies often done for celiac research on gliadin fragments commonly formed when gluten is partially digested by our proteases 28 28 We can however apply what we see from how gliadin affects our guts and gain an understanding of how the other prolamins are possibly affecting our guts and immune systems 28 There are two ways that gliadin crosses that barrier the transcellular pathway and the paracellular pathway Sometimes it mainly crosses by one of the two ways in an individual in others both ways occur 28 To understand fully what is going on let us take a look at the happenings in each of these pathways Paracellular Pathway In the paracellular pathway the glutinoid fragments get through by opening the tight junctions between the enterocytes they directly generate increased intestinal permeability IIP 28 To understand how this works let us first review some facts about zonulin It is released by our enterocytes to signal the fast opening and closing of the tight junctions However when gliadin attaches to receptors known as CXCR3 it triggers zonulin release 54 These CXCR3 receptors are located on our enterocytes In non celiac patients the zonulin release was less widespread and for a shorter duration However IIP still occurred 39 However it is interesting to note that celiac patients sometimes had higher levels of zonulin even after going gluten free 52 According to Dr Alessio Fasano those with celiac disease are not the only ones to experience higher levels of zonulin We have seen this in celiac disease and type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis When we discovered what zonulin is all about in terms of genes now we know that zonulin is the precursor of a molecule a protein called haptoglobin 2 And using that as a biomarker we see that there are three major categories of conditions that see zonulin upregulated or present in a mutated fashion These are autoimmune diseases and besides the three that I just mentioned it has been proven in Crohn s disease tumors ovarian cancer pancreatic cancer glioma these kinds of cancers and then in diseases of the nervous system including schizophrenia and autism 52 In a study conducted in 2006 by the Mucosal Biology Research Center they concluded that gliadin activates zonulin signaling irrespective of the genetic expression of autoimmunity leading to increased intestinal permeability to macromolecules 39 Once the tight junctions are open then the gliadin pieces and other macromolecules are able to cross over where they trigger both the innate and adaptive immune systems 28 Dr Ballantyne explains The production of cytokines and the stimulation of inflammation can cause damage to gut enterocytes thereby causing a leaky gut 28 Having these partially digested protein pieces slipping out of the gut and into our body also allows for the creation of autoantibodies because they are foreign to the immune system So to sum up the paracellular pathway is when the tight junctions between the enterocytes are opened up allowing free passage through the gut wall This is achieved through the contact of CXCR3 receptors and gliadin triggering increased levels of zonulin release Transcellular Pathway The transcellular pathway is composed of two pathways Retrotranscytosis and lysosomal Retrotranscytosis of gliadin has only recently been identified studied only in the context of celiac disease mechanisms are not necessarily limited to celiac disease could occur in anyone with gluten intolerance and iron deficiency Lysosomal pathways are also not limited to those with gluten antibodies or genetic susceptibilities 28 Retrotranscytosis Pathway Let us begin by looking at the retrotranscytosis pathway IgA antibodies made by our B cells move from our gut lymphoid tissue through the enterocyte cell to the apical side of the cell and lumen of the gut The apical side is the brush border side of the enterocyte and lumen simply
ANMA means the inside of the gut This pathway is called transcytosis These IgA antibodies perform a variety of actions A pathway known as retrotranscytosis returns these IgA antibodies into our body from the inside the intestinal lumen This is the opposite pathway of transcytosis It is the movement from the apical side to the basolateral side of the enterocyte cell How is this connected with gluten and other prolamins IgA antibodies against certain gliadin fragments can be present in high levels in the intestinal lumens of active celiac patients and healthy individuals 29 When these IgA antibodies against gluten form a stable complex 29 with the gliadin fragments it conforms perfectly into a transferrin receptor and is then retrotranscytosed out of our gut and into our body 29 This transferrin receptor is actually for iron absorption and is located in the apical side of the enterocyte These gliadin fragments set o ff o u r i m m u n e s y s t e m b o t h a c t i v e a n d innate 29 Again the resulting production of cytokines and stimulation of inflammation can cause damage to gut enterocytes thereby causing a leaky gut 29 Evidently Results showed that transferrin receptor protein mRNA were increased while body iron stores were reduced in celiac disease 45 Perhaps the anemia accounts for them having a greater number of transferrin receptors which then leads to more gliadin fragments getting across the gut barrier and inciting their immune systems even further To recap retrotranscytosis happens when IgA antibodies bound to gliadin attach to a transferrin receptor thereby triggering their passage through the enterocyte into our body The result is activation of the immune system and damage to the gut wall Lysosomal Pathway Now let us look at the lysosomal pathway the other transcellular pathway Endocytosis occurs in healthy individuals and is the method by which our cells can take in things that are too big to absorb through other pathways The cell does this by allowing its plasma membrane to wrap around and pinch off the molecule creating what is known as an endosome There are many different kinds of endosomes but the one we are going to focus on is the lysosome Lysosomes contain enzymes called lysosomal acid proteases that can break proteins apart into individual amino Page 12 acids 30 When the lysosome reaches the basolateral side of the enterocyte it can then be exocytosed out of the cell This would not be a problem except that the gliadin is not always broken down and then activates the immune system 30 It is unknown what percentage of gliadin peptides may remain undigested through this process in those with autoimmune disease 30 Many healthy individuals do break down the gliadin but not celiac patients 30 Also it has been shown that gliadin can damage the lysosome 30 If the lysosome is damaged and spills the contents into the enterocyte both the gliadin and the enzymes are now in the enterocyte This more or less ensures the enterocyte s death due to the digestion of its own proteins and creates a hole in our gut lining where that cell once was This furthers the problem by allowing more undigested proteins and other contents of our gut out of our gut and into the waiting immune system There are two ways that the prolamin gliadin can damage our enterocytes through the lysosomal pathway The first is that it raises the levels of oxidants 30 Remember that oxidants free oxygen radicals increase inflammation and age the body The body does use them but increased levels are very unhealthy for the body The thought is that the oxidant levels are raised due to specific pieces of gliadin turning on inflammation markers 30 This can damage the enterocyte manifesting in cell division problems cell morphology the shape of the cell which must be right for optimal function and cell death The other way is the mobilization of intracellular calcium ion stores 30 The concentration of these ions is greatest in the endoplasmic reticulum The endoplasmic reticulum is the organelle within every cell responsible for protein synthesis lipid metabolism carbohydrate metabolism and detoxification When it is stressed it can t do its job efficiently 30 If functioning subpar for long enough the enterocyte will go into cell apoptosis intentional cell death In both cases if the enterocyte dies you then have an open space where the contents of the gut can leak out and set off our immune system It is a bit of a cycle It is not known whether or not the raised oxidant levels and movement of calcium ion stores are due to the lysosomal or retrotranscytosis pathway 30 It also is not known if there is an amount that must be consumed before these processes start to occur or the role that genes might play in the strength of our reactions to the prolamin gliadin 30 Regardless it is evident that much damage can happen to the gut barrier and inflammation cytokines are increased both in healthy and unhealthy individuals So gliadin
Page 13 ANMA when in the lysosome can damage it increase oxidants remain undigested in less healthy people and in the cell mobilize calcium ion stores 30 In summary it creates IIP and trigger the immune system as well Let me review Prolamins can pass through our gut barrier two ways paracellular and transcellular which includes two pathways retrotranscytosis and the lysosomal pathway In the paracellular and retrotranscytosis pathways IIP occurs and it can happen in the lysosomal pathway as well This is Summing Up Prolamins key because IIP is at the root of all autoimmune diseases I wondered how this information connects to other This might seem like enough evidence against grains prolamins not merely gluten Whenever gliadin or pseudo grains and legumes but there is yet one more any foreign protein passes through the gut barrier Agglutinins into our body it can trigger the immune system to attack it Side effects of this are IIP inflammation and Agglutinins therefore IIP and the creation of antibodies autoantibodies While further research is required Agglutinins are compounds located in the germ of the seed some doctors and researchers are even beginning to that protect the seed from fungal infection and perhaps from believe that gluten sensitivity may be a factor in every insect predation as well 8 WGA wheat germ agglutinin autoimmune disease 15 In all of these pathways is the best studied agglutinin and probably the most gliadin is allowed through the gut barrier Given the detrimental although soybean agglutinin is a close similarity in structure and homology 31 of prolamins second 8 Again as with prolamins agglutinins are not it is quite likely that the other prolamins have similar digested very well because of our lack of proteolytic enzymes actions in the gut as the prolamin gluten Dr to break them down These agglutinins travel through our Ballantyne finds studies show that prolamins in gut mostly intact The problem however is not them quinoa corn and oats can cause damage to the gut traveling through it is when they interact with the brush and stimulate the immune system in celiac sufferers border of our intestines 8 WGA is quite adept at doing this 8 in a manner completely analogous to gliadin 7 A This is possible due to the specific recognition and binding review states that These results support the hypothesis by lectins to glycans 47 How does it interact exactly In all that peptides from zeins that are resistant to human cells there is a twice thick outer membrane composed of digestion are able to induce a celiac like immune fats and some proteins for membrane functions This outer response in some CD celiac disease patients by a layer is known as the lipid bilayer Eight different sugars similar mechanism to that triggered by wheat gluten can be embedded into this lipid bilayer for multiple functions peptides 59 In addition prolamins are difficult for of the cell Whether the sugar is attached to a protein or a fat our digestive system to break down which can lead determines whether it will be called a glycoprotein or a to GD besides being hard on our pancreas due to the glycolipid This is where WGA comes in WGA attaches need for extra enzymes gliadin is known to inhibit tightly to two of these sugars N acetylglucosamine and the activity of three important enzymes lactase N acetylneuraminic acid 9 In all animal cells and our sucrase and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 34 located in the g l y c o c a l y x l a y e r a r e t h e s e s a m e t w o s u g a r s brush border of our intestine Lactase breaks down N acetylglucosamine and N acetylneuraminic acid When lactose sucrase breaks down sugars into WGA binds to these sugars in our enterocyte s membrane monosaccharides and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 helps it is quickly endocytosed into the cell 9 Why Remember with immune regulation Also prolamin rich foods these sugars are not just by chance in the membrane they feed only certain species of gut bacteria so only are receptors and signalers One particular receptor is the certain strains increase in number 31 GD as we Epidermal Growth Factor EGF The EGF receptor is well know can cause IIP all on its own So although the known to promote what is called receptor mediated majority of our knowledge in this area is coming from endocytosis and may be the reason WGA is so readily studies on gluten and in the context of celiac disease internalized by gut enterocytes 9 This means that when we can know that there is an overlap in the mechanisms WGA attaches to the EGF receptor the endocytosis pathway observed for other prolamins for healthy individuals is turned on Not only that but EGF also regulates the
ANMA paracellular pathway the junctions between the cells 9 Might this be why WGA can so quickly pass through our gut barrier WGA stimulates our immune system as well both the innate and adaptive 9 It does this by promoting pro inflammatory cytokines which encourage phagocytosis raise production of oxidants encourage helper T cell growth and raise B cell antibody synthesis 9 Finally by attaching to B cells derived from the blood WGA causes white blood cell apoptosis and an inflammatory response of the immune system 21 It also binds to the cytokines on T cells thereby preventing their propagation 9 Now you might be thinking I know gluten isn t the best but beans are healthy Not exactly Phytohaemagglutinin PHA or kidney bean lectin is quite toxic 21 Although most of the toxin is destroyed in the cooking process there are still the digestive enzyme inhibitors that need acid water soaking to be neutralized Additionally PHA is mostly neutralized by boiling but other agglutinins are not 21 The peanut agglutinin can be found in the bloodstream after consumption showing that it must create IIP 21 The soy agglutinin is even be studied to see if it can be used as a chemo drug 21 To summarize WGA can cross the gut barrier through endocytosis and the paracellular pathway by binding to sugars in our glycocalyx layer Once across it actuates our immune system innate and adaptive by promoting proinflammatory cytokines thus damaging our gut through inflammation in the process While most have not been as extensively studied as WGA agglutinins from other plants have been shown to have similar effects 21 By looking at what we see from a few we can gather that agglutinins create IIP activate our immune system and contribute to gut dysbiosis GD due to their indigestibility My Opinion Section The Benefits of Soaking and Fermenting I find it interesting to note that when grains pseudo grains legumes and nuts seeds are soaked fermented or sprouted some of these issues are reduced or eliminated Soaking nuts 7 24 hours in salt water and then drying in a 150 degree oven for 12 hours or more neutralizes a large amount of the phytic acid and enzyme inhibitors 43 It does this by activating certain enzymes that liberate the minerals and vitamins from the phytic acid 43 During the process of soaking and fermenting gluten and other difficult to digest proteins are partially broken down into simpler components that are more readily available for Page 14 absorption 43 Sally Fallon declares Sprouting increases vitamin B content neutralizes phytic acid neutralizes enzyme inhibitors Complex sugars responsible for intestinal gas are broken down inactivates aflatoxins potent carcinogens found in grains Finally numerous enzymes that help digestion are produced during the germination process 42 If you were to look at animals whose diet is largely other plant matter and grain you would find that they have as many as four stomachs creating a longer tract and longer transit time Lactobacilli help out in the first and second stomachs of these animals 43 Contrast this with mankind that has only one stomach and a shorter track and transit time This allows for him to eat meat without it spoiling during the transit time contrasted it makes for an unsuitable place to digest the grains well 43 By fermenting or soaking your grains pseudo grains legumes and nuts seeds you give your body a head start with digestion and allow for better absorption of minerals and other nutrients It is certainly interesting to note that conventionally raised GMO crops are bred to be higher in these troublesome constituents prolamins phytic acid agglutinins and digestive enzyme inhibitors because these constituents are what make the crop resistant to disease and predators This is why buying organic and soaking or fermenting is so important even if you do not have a sensitivity or allergy Looking at the history of other cultures preparations of grains reveals this same practice In Sally Fallon s Nourishing Traditions she observes how In India rice and lentils are fermented for at least two days before they are prepared as idli and dosas in Africa the natives soak coarsely ground corn overnight before adding it to soups and stews and they ferment corn or millet for several days to produce a sour porridge called ogi a similar dish made from oats was traditional among the Welsh in some Oriental and Latin American countries rice receives a long fermentation before it is prepared Ethiopians make their distinctive injera bread by fermenting a grain called teff for several days Mexican corn cakes called pozol are fermented for several days and for as long as two weeks in banana leaves before the introduction of commercial brewers yeast Europeans made slow rise breads from fermented starters in America the pioneers were famous for their sourdough breads pancakes and biscuits and throughout Europe
ANMA Page 15 They should have been dead way earlier from cancer obesity and autoimmune diseases if indeed these food toxins are the only causes Is it maybe all the genetic modifying pesticides immature harvesting poor growing conditions improper feed for cattle and lack of nutrients in the soil Just some food for thought no pun intended You can see references in the Bible of grain and lentils Esau sold his birthright for a bowl of lentils In the account of Ruth we see an impoverished young woman gather barley grain for her mother in law s and her s sustenance In Psalm 104 15 it says And wine that maketh glad the heart of man and oil to make his face to shine and bread which strengtheneth man s heart In the New Testament we see how Jesus and His disciples were walking through a field of grain and ate of it as they walked because they were so hungry In the Levitical law God provided for the poor of the Israelite society by commanding the Israelites to not gather every last bit of grain and other crops Instead they were to leave the corners and bits for the poor to gather for their sustenance When you look at the diet commanded by the Lord to the Israelites they mainly ate meat at feasts and the fat was not even eaten It was the best part and for the Lord Meat would have been rare on the typical Israelite table from day to day 40 the basis of the diet was really bread oil wine supplemented with some vegetables and fruits depending on the season 40 Also the Bible speaks against gluttony These are just some thoughts We must not forget however that the grains back then were nothing like the grains of today nor were they prepared as they are today When we changed our food sources eliminated the medicinal properties from our food and added toxins that Thoughts From a Biblical Perspective destroy the gut lining autoimmune and neurodegenerative Dr Ballantyne mentions how it has only been conditions simultaneously increased 6 with the Agricultural Age that we started eating these Conclusion of Research problematic foods namely grains pseudo grains Alright this was a lot of information I gave to legumes etc This being because the fire had to have been discovered along with the ability to save seed and you I hope it helped you to understand the role these food plant crops However this is just not Biblically true In toxins have in the development of an AID These food Genesis 4 2 we see that Cain the firstborn of Adam was toxins are a problem not so much due to individual a tiller of the ground Agricultural ability was present reasons but rather because of how they trigger the immune from the second generation onward not during the system interplay with the gut barrier to form IIP and Neolithic new stone age time frame as evolution would encourage GD This is vital because these factors are suggest Also how did our beginning fathers live to among the causations of AID It is a diametric line of such great ages up to 969 years if grains and the like thinking compared to how the mainstream medical system are so detrimental for our gut and immune system health views AID but if you think about it it is a body mind grains were soaked overnight and for as long as several days in water or soured milk before they were cooked and served as porridge or gruel Many of our senior citizens may remember that in earlier times the instructions on the oatmeal box called for an overnight soaking 43 Andean Indians recognize that the antinutrients in quinoa are neutralized in this way 43 Peoples from all different places in the world have known to soak and ferment their grains pseudo grains etc It amazes me and shows that there is something behind it not just a crazy idea It is interesting to note this especially since we now know that IIP and GD is at the base of AID Even if you do not currently have an issue eating these grains without soaking it is still wise to begin fermenting and soaking Eating a diet high in unsoaked or unfermented grains is especially rough on the digestive system Spelt5 3 and kamut are ancient grains that are sometimes tolerated better by those that still cannot consume wheat even when soaked Maybe you are wondering about corn Yes soaking is needed Simply soak in lime water overnight to free up the vitamin B3 43 The soaking will also render the amino acids in the germ easier on your gut Buckwheat has anti cancer nutrient nitriloside 43 Now whole rice and millet have lower amounts of phytic acid and are okay to consume without soaking but they should still be cooked for at least 2 hours in bone broth to account for the minerals and to help digestion 43 Now that we have seen how the ancient cultures prepared and consumed these foods what does the Bible have to say regarding this topic
spirit approach It fits with the idea that illness is not by accident but rather when one of these areas is neglected Instead of trying to suppress an overactive immune system it rather focuses on supporting the immune system by healing the gut providing necessary nutrients and removing inflammatory foods It makes perfect sense now why removing these food toxins is not only advisable but imperative for those with an AID or those who have a genetic inclination to an AID Knowing this does make it more conceivable to remove all these comfort foods Let me recap Grains and pseudo grains are difficult to digest contribute to GD and IIP and trigger the immune system However we also saw how these foods were prepared in older cultures to assist our digestive systems with breaking down these foods and absorbing their nutrients So should autoimmune patients consume these foods From what I see the answer is a resounding no All prolamins should be avoided even by autoimmune patients that can tolerate them because there does not need to be an allergy or sensitivity for gluten to get through and once through it stimulates the immune system and the gut wall is damaged From what we know those with celiac disease should not even consume gluten free grains because of the damage these inflict on the gut lining and health If you do not have an AID have a healthy gut and tolerate these foods fine then I think they can be eaten However I would do it with moderation and preferably when fermented sprouted and properly prepared I am now a health coach and work for myself at The Well Niche Follow me on Instagram thewellniche Facebook and LinkedIn for health tips and recipes View the full version here https drive google com file d 1ySJ1SWprCS5hQchnlxsq0aoK0ED5ggY4 view usp sharing

ANMA will be joining forces with Sentry BioProtection to sanitize and protect areas of the convention to enhance the safety and comfort of participants The registration desk speaker halls exhibit hall and luncheon area will be treated with an EPA registered disinfectant and a unique continuously self cleaning coating Please take a moment to learn about this amazing new approach WHAT IS CLEAN We almost have to take it on faith that disinfected surfaces are safe to touch But the question we don t often ask ourselves is How long has it been since the last treatment WHAT IS THE RISK More importantly we should be asking What exactly are the cleaning and sanitizing chemicals doing to us and the environment Many use corrosive chemical compounds that over time can be much more dangerous than the pathogens they are protecting us from Regardless of how we all apply these disinfectant chemicals we can t escape the fact that they can be as toxic to us as they are to the bugs A BETTER WAY The Sentry BioProtection approach is to first Clean Disinfect a surface with proven EPAregister products and then apply a long lasting coating called SD90 that provides a continuously self cleaning effect This exclusive long lasting product is unlike typical cleaning products on the market today because SD90 operates in a completely new and unique way The active ingredient is a molecule made of 3 parts The First part is a Silane base It creates a strong covalent bond with almost any surface Silane is the same compound used by dentists to bind dental work to our teeth This is what gives an SD 90 treatment the ability to stay active and bound to a surface for months The Second part is a simple Nitrogen atom that imparts a positive ionic charge to the molecule This assists in the molecule being applied in an even manner the positive charges repel each other and it also helps to draw microbes to the surface microbes have a negative ionic charge from phosphate in their cell wall The Third part is a long Carbon Chain see illustration below that disrupts the membrane and cell wall of a microbe upon contact This is the secret SD90 under an Electron Microscope The actual structure of the molecule Is the active protective method Much different and safer than tradition chemicals SD90 is made with an US EPA registered antimicrobial ingredient that protects the coating itself from growth of stain and odorcausing bacteria mold fungi and algae The coating is the actual protective layer SD90 will eventually wear off and need to be reapplied Once a surface is properly cleaned and sanitized the SD90 coating is applied It will stand up to regular use and cleanings for up to 90 days Professional application of the SD90 will last 6 12 months Just use a warm mild cleaning solution as part of a regular cleaning program Now you can rest assured that SD90 will be continuously protecting for months to come For More Information Please Call 801 830 5647 Sen t r yBi o Pr ot ec t i on c o m
The Nine Horsemen of the Current Health Apocalypse Dr Bob Lund Summary Modern living has slowly but surely created an increasingly hostile context for human physiology to thrive in Excepting the largely eradicated infectious diseases developed nations have embraced the normal lifestyle environment and diet that forces human physiology to express chronic and degenerative disease CDD Additionally new and increased stressors such as toxins and electromagnetic fields cause novel stress expressions in our bodies Taken together with the relentless increase in refined and toxic foodstuffs like sugar and vegetable oils and a decrease in vital nutrients such as magnesium copper and amino acids we continue the march to a vast majority of our population suffering from various CDDs This paper proposes that we are at a tipping point in human spiritual soul and body SSB health Our institutions are not moving fast enough to combat the nine horsemen of the current SSB apocalypse that is underway Though we mourn the very real losses that have occurred during the current COVID 19 pandemic it is unfortunate that even more attention is distracted from the real pandemic s occurring in our midst Consider this paper to be issuing a health defense readiness condition DEFCON level 1 actually beyond DEFCON 1 We have been being attacked and we should have been confronting the Nine Horsemen vigorously with immediate defensive strategies and offensive weaponry From my perspective the present total COVID 19 craziness has tipped us into a full on health war If we do not act now what comes in the next decades will be a virtual annihilation of once great and productive peoples in many nations on earth Human progress peace creativity and productivity will be exchanged for a minority of people caring for a majority of disabled demented and handicapped ones And where will the financing come from when our GDP yields to the burden of caring for so many debilitated people We have precious little time too few people taking the bold necessary steps and far too few practitioners willing to risk what is necessary to shift human SSB health now The response of mainstream media traditional western medicine TWM and most political bodies to the current COVID 19 situation is unfortunately a massive distraction from the real underlying issues that build and support healthy bodies which resist any lifestyle environment and diet stressors including pathogens But in the midst of the aforementioned bad news there is some very good news I will also provide keys that promise an immediate shift in the right direction for our individual and collective health Introduction What follows is a hybrid of a research paper a fire side chat and an air raid siren I will sound a bit bossy at times but I am very passionate about providing a brutally honest appraisal of the near apocalyptic nature of the true pandemics in our midst as well as providing the current and subsequent generations with some keys to restoring vibrant thriving life Each year I take time to assess my progress with not only my health but that of those around me and my patients I especially like to answer the following questions Are we really identifying and properly dealing with the root causes of the plethora of CDDs we are currently facing Or are we merely settling for the latest pharmaceutical palliative Are there any new potential root cause stressors that have cropped up in our collective lifestyle environment and diet LED trends What practices beliefs and even dogmas could we be still adhering to that may have lost the relevance they may have had in years past What new scientific evidence has come about this last year that I need to factor in CDD treatment
ANMA It is a well known fact that a new proven truth regarding some aspect in medicine can take up to a couple of decades before it becomes a part of the curriculum and training for doctors and integrates into day to day practice A review suggested that it took an average of 17 years for just 14 of original new discovery research to be integrated into physician practice let alone be taught in schools Unfortunately there is so much inertia that has to be factored into what kind of standardized treatment a patient receives Things like what the school taught the doctor how she was mentored in a clinical setting what accepted literature promotes what medical boards adopt and enforce as standard of care what the doctor is used to what the doctor s own hubris will admit what the patient thinks they need what the media drug commercials promotes what attorneys are willing to argue how the courts have been ruling what the patient is willing to comply with and what the insurance company is willing to pay for Unfortunately the above dozen or so issues can come into play with nearly every eight minute patient visit And the bitter little cherry on top of that awful sundae is that the patient is rarely ever cured only treated Modern medicine profits from disease not health Whew I got a little dizzy just writing the above We must realize that a seemingly innocent but generally very necessary thing such as stopping a statin drug for cholesterol and implementing a LED that reduces inflammation across the board will be met with resistance If anything goes wrong the blame game starts tempers flare medical boards and courts might get involved and where is the money going to flow or stop Such is the state of disease management today In The Beginning In order to properly explain the current health apocalypse and offer some exciting solutions we must first start with the fact that God Creator of the earth and universe who is head over heels in love with us designed the human body to be mind blowingly self healing And to not just survive but to thrive But like anything of complex design thriving is context specific As much as I love scuba diving thriving under water for more than just moments of time is very difficult That is not where humans were designed to thrive Duh What is less obvious is the myriad of ways that modern living has tampered with key contextual elements that The Creator built into the very fabric of our existence Our spirit soul and body are incredibly resilient but do have limits and all three need Page 20 a context for optimal health to occur It is my view that we have been pushing those limits for thousands of years but in earnest for the last 170 years or so especially in the physiological realm A number of issues due to deficiency overload and imbalance have led to the rise with some explosive spikes of CDDs These will also be referred to the diseases of civilization DOC Taken together these CDDs along with their economic impact threaten our very existence Life in many of the developed nations is at a tipping point if we do not act quickly and decisively humanity will drown under the burden of the mind boggling misery of CDDs and the consequent and suffocating economic price tag The majority of the causes of health related death in history up to the early part of the 20th century were infectious in nature GI distress TB smallpox etc Thankfully many nations have moved beyond such We know that much of infectious disease is due to poor hygiene sanitation and water But today our greatest health and longevity threats are not contagious We do not get a heart attack by someone sneezing on us And what is crazy but beyond the scope of this paper is that no one is really sure that something like COVID 19 is actually contagious passing from personto person It is assumed There has been an unmistakable upward trend of heart disease cancer stroke diabetes etc since the late 1800s along with some alarming spikes such as the explosion of autism and most of the auto immune conditions since around 1990 In two previous papers published in JANMA I detailed many of these statistics and conditions I recommend you take the time to read those since I will be updating and building on the discussions there The Rate of Injury Exceeding the Rate of Repair In the simplest terms given the approximate proper context for our body as long as the rate of repair exceeds the rate of injury we do well The trouble is that many if not most modern folks are plagued with chronic long term low level insults that result in various systems being stressed often to the point of disease overload Sleep disorders are ubiquitous Ischemic heart disease cancer diabetes and so many other CDDs all arise slowly as oxidative stress manifesting in chronic inflammation contributes to a high injury to repair ratio Often these nefarious processes are occurring in our bodies over the span of decades
Page 24 ANMA Many people who try to live and eat healthy often get stuck on one or perhaps a few aspects of what makes for optimal health In nearly every patient case that I am confronted with rarely is there but one health insult there is rarely therefore just one silver bullet It s more like multiple factors as dear ole Saint Anthony suffered Figure 1 You will note that there are eight demons plaguing Anthony Think of these eight as eight horsemen of our health apocalypse The ninth of course is from within Anthony himself his own heart and mind space care i e attitude Figure 1 The Temptation of St Anthony You Being Attacked by Numerous Health Demons Many folk who turn to alternative natural and holistic ANH practitioners have either been to a traditional western medicine TWM doctor or have exhausted themselves time energy money trying to deal with their serious health issues on their own Often they turn to Amazon and do a search on health books 70 000 results Seriously where does one begin Every diet imaginable Whole wheat is goodness one minute and then it s the enemy in the next High fat low carb Organic oatmeal even has gluten A zillion different multi vitamins all claiming to be the answer Carnivore only Vegan only Spice rack medicine Crazy making at best a waste of money and possibly a basket of disease at worst Most folks want to feel better as much as possible in the short term without interfering too much with the gift ofpain processes that God wired into us in order to guide us away from disease These suffering ones would like to get to the root of their health problems thereby avoiding the wheel of disease misfortune There is a far too common vicious cycle of pain pain relieving medication with some temporary pain relief however there is often a day of reckoning for the collateral physiological stress due the medication Some CDD Sobering and Staggering Statistics Here are some stunning statistics straight from the CDC website Figure 2 Some CDD Statistics Notes Prediabetes and diabetes are not typically listed as causes of death rather these are now known to be underlying and impacting conditions like heart disease renal failure blindness cancer etc Alzheimer s is the 6th leading cause of death By 2040 cost per year to treat is expected to exceed 380b Figure 2 shows some deaths and a number of key conditions diagnosed each year A recent Rand study concluded that 60 195 million of all Americans have one chronic disease such has heart disease cancer asthma diabetes etc while 42 137 million have two Is anyone else seeing what I m seeing Can anyone else say P A N D E M I C Or perhaps the word A P O CA L Y P S E is more fitting A pandemic or apocalypse does not have to mean death How about an apocalypse of misery loss of thrive and the depressive hopelessness that often ensues Or what about the apocalypse that occurs to most Americans wallets as a result of increasing disease management costs and loss of productivity Let s say for the moment that the COVID 19 death stats are accurate there is evidence for exaggerative overstating A half a million deaths due to this condition Compare that to the couple million a year dying from CDDs and moreover the 190 million plus who often feel like they are the walking dead And all these CDDs are preventable and in most cases curable In a twelve month period we have witnessed the near shutdown down of nations the imposition of draconian measures masks gathering shutdowns destruction of businesses while handing out golden handcuffs in the form of paltry stimulus money This stimulus money is really only a financial opiate foreboding a new great depression for at least a couple of decades according to James Rickards in his new book entitled The New Great Depression As with most of the fraudulent viral pandemics in the past a completely needless blanket of fear was thrown over entire nations of people And with insult to injury little to zero real science has backed any of it How the CDC Interprets the CDD Explosion
ANMA From the CDC website they say that the risk factors to prevent CDDs are smoking alcohol no exercise and diet But from their own website they say that smoking for the last 15 years is massively down While a comprehensive study on physical activity has shown that physical activity is slightly up in the decades prior to 2005 and total physical activity is slightly down this change is not nearly enough to explain the explosion of CDDs especially since the late 1980s They say Stopping smoking lowers the risk of serious health problems such as heart disease cancer type 2 diabetes and lung disease And we would agree but if smoking is way down why the explosive rise of so many CDDs Further they say A balanced diet of fruits veggies whole grains lean meats and low fat dairy products is important at any age Probably the only thing I would agree with on that list is veggies and only nonstarchy ones at that Current science proves all the other diet advice as wrong Page 25 For most today of the millions who suffer and die from the REAL pandemics among us referred to above the growth of these CDDs began about 170 years ago and has had a number of significant upticks since then Richard Leer has carefully compiled a jaw dropping report on the rise of CDDs since around 1990 Further of interest he only uses CDC NIH and NHANES data this shockingly shows the real health crises among us The literal kneein the hockey stick curves in the increases of many conditions are beyond alarming The majority of fruits are sugar bombs and should not be consumed by a population who is standing on the edge of a diabetic cliff Pattern and trend recognition are a critical part of any real health practitioner s work Most TWM docs and too many ANH ones get stuck in the trap s of modern medicine The ER and trauma medicine workers aside my heroes I contend that real doctors who teach their patients and press on to root causes are few and far between What can many of our precious comrades do in an eight minute office visit more than the pill for the ill and drug for thebug Next patient Real doctors listen teach test train coach and cheerlead oh and did I say listen Business and market forces place serious demands on most TWM doctors to NOT heal and cure but rather treat Sadly many of my naturopathic peers are succumbing to similar pressures Whole grains even if non GMO and organic are not our friends even as Gundry and others have shown The Common Denominator s of the Diseases of Civilization Lean meats which of our ancestors eschewed the fat It is now commonly recognized that mitochondrial dysfunction has a strong role in most CDDs Name them Ischemic heart disease cancer obesity type 2 diabetes AMD Parkinsons non alcoholic fatty liver disease Alzheimers some auto immune disorders and a myriad of others But we know that there is really only one disease Cells that malfunction So much research has now shown that when anything disrupts the power plants of the cells in our body commonly known as the mitochondria then the cells of that tissue or organ system simply cannot do their job It is then myriad of possible disease symptoms manifest What we clearly know today about the CDC s balanced diet Low fat dairy organic whole fat dairy can be great for some but only if not pasteurized homogenized and loaded with chemicals Low fat wrong fat fruit and grains is actually what got us into this mess along with the myriad of vegetable oils that are deemed to be heart healthy Nothing could be further from the truth Clearly they cannot be trusted in the quest to identify and eradicate the root causes of the current CDDs Epidemiology 101 Our government cannot be trusted to guide us into health and most of our TWM doctors have no training to discover root cause and cure CDDs We must therefore become epidemiologists ones who consider the bigger longer picture If we don t look back beyond just a few years ago we will never connect the dots of these longer term slow and insidious threats to our well being Consider this by the eminent Dr Thomas Seyfried You can t get cancer if your mitochondria are healthy That statement alone destroys so much of TWM s cancer focus and finance Doug Wallace published a game changing paper demonstrating that mitochondrial dysfunction is actually what lies at the heart of CDDs aging and cancer He believes that somatic mutations in our mitochondria which can be caused by LED factors especially excessive caloric consumption lie at the heart of this process At
ANMA least read the abstract of his paper Would it not be sensible to figure out what makes our tiny but mighty mitochondria happy and healthy Apparently so Consider a few of the conclusions of a paper from 2016 that unveiled a couple of important findings Nutrient overload can cause our mitochondria to malfunction Also that a massive influx of calcium can cause mitochondrial death Guess what Dr Pall discovered about some NNEMFs They can cause the calcium channels in our cells to open allowing enough calcium to cause cell death Additional studies concluded that oxidized PUFAs can accelerate mitochondrial and cellular malfunction and death These reasons alone give us key puzzle pieces in our quest for cause Another area quite new to my knowledge and experience is the effect of deuterium on our mitochondria Boros et al have demonstrated how even a little bit more deuterium in our bodies can cause terrible mitochondrial dysfunction and death Olgun has shown how deuterium can cripple ATP production in the mitochondria So anything that disrupts our cells ability to make energy cripples them from performing their function Think of the thousands of possible functions that cannot occur if cells cannot make energy Some of the obvious common denominators in the DOCs are toxins toxic forces and nutrient deficiencies Also many autoimmune disorders seem to arise from gut damage and microbiome dysbiosis These can lead to a confused immune system that may result in friendly fire i e our immune system attacks us Exposing the connection of all of these dynamics to the root cause of CDDs like heart disease cancer diabetes etc has been difficult largely due to a faulty philosophy of disease and the tremendously lucrative business model that such a philosophy has spawned We need something more like silver buckshot than a silver bullet The On going Quest to Identify Root Causes of the DOCs For many years now I have been researching experimenting and performing many micro clinical trials on just how to get to the root causes of not only the rise but veritable explosion of the diseases of civilization For my own Page 26 understanding and ability to help sick folk I have summed up the major areas of possible causes of our CDDs into nine groups I refer to these as the Nine Horsemen of the Current Health Apocalypse So how do the Nine Horsemen of the current health apocalypse manifest Here is the list albeit abbreviated Be sure to review my previous two papers in JANMA In those papers I cover a lot more detail for each of the following nine areas I will briefly discuss each adding a few updates from my previous papers and then in a following section provide a game plan to combat each The Nine Horsemen of the Current Health Apocalypse 1 Toxins Toxicity Modern living has introduced literally thousands of toxins that either side skirt FDA approval or get into our food water and air Glyphosate Roundup is probably the most widespread toxin used in chemical farming throughout the world Samsel and Seneff have published a number of papers in a series entitled Glyphosate Pathways to Modern Disease outlining just some of the many deleterious effects of this nefarious chemical Zhang et al have outlined a few key areas to be concerned about with GMO foodstuffs those areas are toxicity allergenicity and genetic hazards I consider the deuterium levels in much of our foods and water to be very toxic Much has been written about chlorine and fluorine in our water not to mention birth control hormones and other medications commonly found therein Heavy metals in our mouth and environment have taken a horrific toll Oxidized PUFAs which is literally every PUFA we buy have moved up on my naughty list These fats become pathologically remodeled into our cells especially adipose ones They can have a half life in us of up to 680 days So wherever these lipids land in our tissues they can have an on going oxidative nasty influence on our health One reason I ask patients to give one month of doing things right for each year of wrong is partly due to the fact that these oxidized lipids from HOHUM PUFAS can hang around in us for many years before they are replaced 2 NNEMFs Non Native Electromagnetic Fields Frequencies God created our world and plant and animal physiology to thrive in the presence of native EMFs But TWM has focused on the chemical and physiological nature of the body What has been largely ignored is our bio energetic nature that consists of electrical voltage current fields and frequencies These
Page 27 ANMA EMFs are present and necessary for us to even be alive not only at the cellular level but at the environment level Dr Robert Becker demonstrated how electrical energy is a foundational part of all living creatures There are five broad categories of NNEMFs I am not certain however that these were intended to be a part of what we might consider Plan A in God s created world We captured and corralled these wild electron beasts and have tamed them for incredible benefit to be sure but at what cost Here is a brief summary of five types of NNEMFs that we must reckon with Electric Fields EF The cord for your nightstand light even if the light is not turned on still radiates dangerous EFs The same goes for an extension cord with nothing plugged into it Electromagnetic Fields EMFs Wiring and devices like refrigerators lights clock radios all radiate electromagnetic fields Radio Frequencies RFs Electro magnetic radiation from things like WiFi devices cell phones microwave ovens and smart devices etc Martin L Pall PhD has compiled no less than 156 studies outlining the eight areas of NNEMFs physiological damage disruption DNA Fertility neurology apoptosis oxidative stress endocrine hormones intracellular calcium and cancer Quietly ponder that list for a moment Dirty Electricity DE Dirty electricity is stray and toxic EMFs that feedback into your house wiring from the grid and your appliances I refer to this as EMF vomit Magda Havas has demonstrated a dramatic relationship with the level of DE and various diseases such as diabetes ADHD MS and more Blue Light Radiation BLR The preponderance of modern lighting focuses on a narrow blue ish range largely because it takes less electricity than its big brother incandescent filament bulbs We now know that blue light environments impact human biology negatively especially when not in context with the other sister colors in the spectrum red etc We must be careful to not be destroyed by the tasty delights of our technological tools Here is a teaser with respect to NNEMFs and their potential role in influenza and possibly even in the current COVID 19 pandemic In his epic work The Invisible Rainbow Arthur Firstenberg asserts that at a minimum influenza outbreaks seem to be associated with electromagnetic shifts in our world And at a maximum such outbreaks could even be indirectly or directly caused by such EMFs If influenza is primarily an electrical disease a response to an electrical disturbance of the atmosphere then it is not contagious in the ordinary sense Firstenberg provides compelling evidence that this could be the case For anyone interested in thriving in the midst of the tsunamis of NNEMFs this book is a must read Email me for a copy of my paper wherein I review this book 3 Key Nutrient Deficiencies and Overload It literally took centuries to dissuade our ancestors from the idea that some disease conditions were not caused by an outside pathogen invading our body but rather something not getting into our body that we actually needed A good example of this was the issue of pellagra in the early 1900s Dr Joseph Goldberger a physician in the U S government s Hygienic Laboratory the predecessor of the National Institutes of Health discovered the cause of pellagra and stepped on a number of medical toes when his research experiments showed that diet and not germs the then current medical theory caused the disease He also stepped on Southern pride when he linked the poverty of Southern sharecroppers tenant farmers and mill workers to the deficient diet that caused pellagra Often overfed people are actually starving from a micro nutrient deficiency Deficient key minerals vitamins fatty acids and amino acids are way too commonly found at the root of CDDs today Refined sugar and carbs most fruit and inflammatory PUFAS all dominate much of the American diet These are not our friends often they displace real food If you want a very precise way to determine nutrient needs for an individual consider the work of Dr Guy Schenker His monumental work entitled The Analytical System of Clinical Nutrition is an amazing way to address the root causes of many CDDs 4 Deficiencies of Vitamins G N S W and X Ober et al have demonstrated the incredible healing benefit of earth grounding Humanity has progressively suffered more as we have further disconnected from nature Sunshine on our skin is vital for human health Sufficient purified spring or well water with minerals intact is a foundation for

Page 32 ANMA It has been said that 150 is the new 120 I am persuaded that God made people to live forever Yes forever Some are trying to make a lifespan of 150 be the new pseudo upper limit of 120 My response So what 120 150 not that big of deal My grandfather lived to be 100 years exactly born in 1900 I would not be thrilled to have had the last 5 years of his life however But if you are talking about 37 trillion years now that s a big deal Subjective opinion alert I know in my heart that the nine decades or so that I have in this physical body is just the beginning of the beginning After I signed the title deed of my life over to Jesus Christ years ago I began to experience so many things that had eternal dimensions to them I purposely avoided reading the Book of Revelation last book in the Bible because I thought there was too much symbolism in it and a lot of fear But about 10 years ago I picked it up again and actually began to understand the bigger picture I was and continue to be mind blowingly encouraged about the very long future for those who respond to the love of God by receiving the free gift of forgiveness of sins eternal life and the restored image of God in us In light of all this I now have almost an endless motivation to do whatever it takes to bullet proof my spirit soul and body Clearly lifestyle environment diet and sleep are huge but what looms larger for most people is the relentless stressors of modern life Consider a few 1000s of toxins NNEMFs bathing us like never before in history 24 hour barraging of news mostly negative and sympathetic provoking pressures to work perform make money to cover a myriad of requirements threat of increasing government controls pandemics less freedom more dimensions of slavery incessant blue light screaming at our endocrine system meddling with melatonin production accelerated border incursion potential invasion from China and probable mandatory vaccines Goodness Lions tigers and bears oh my almost makes my heart rate and BP increase even as I type these words except for one thing An Endless Source of Para Sympathetic Peace Sometime ask me how I am doing My answer used to be something like I m ok Or I m hanging in there And then I would proceed to tell you a couple of the biggest fears worries or challenges that I was facing I was allowing other things to matter more than what matters most I would respond with either my biggest financial challenge someone s criticism of me a recent argument with a close person or whatever the trouble flavor of the day presented I could never be better than the circumstances life was presenting me with If I really believe that zombies are going to start marching or that one more bite of a non organic strawberry was going to do me in then I would allow my inner peace control panel to be governed by those things I would be a slave to events real or fictitious I would never be doing better than what life or people were doing to me A slave that was chained to people money FUD places attitudes job status BMI etc Broccoli and Vitamin C can t fix this But what I really believe today as reflected in how I actually conduct my day to day life if you ask me how I m doing my answer is I m doing super duper good While this does not mean that certain circumstances or people s actions are what I would like but perhaps someday these things will catch up with how well I m actually doing Since I have peace with God and nothing can separate me from his love I m no longer chained to earthly weak and broken human wisdom no longer a slave to the appetites and addictions that once ruled my life and am seeing the image of God being restored in my life because I m a new creation I now have a completely new view of reality around me Holy smokes This has fortified my attitude which in turn has contributed greatly to the extraordinary level of health I enjoy today at 63 years of age Conclusion Amber Alert Act Now Here it is straight up If I could send an Amber Alert to every person in every developed country regarding the urgency of doing the foregoing to combat the raging Nine Horsemen the following is what I would text URGENT The Nine Horseman are laying siege to your SSB health NOW We are at a tipping point TWM medicine schools and political bodies are too late nothing in these venues is changing fast enough We must be rigorous and act now to combat these Nine Horsemen May God extend His great mercy and help in our time of great need as we look to Him for His will and wisdom in these difficult times For references please contact Dr Bob Lund directly at docbob333777 gmail com
