FOR CHILDREN:
-
Except for the most dire circumstances,
children must be reared by their mother and father, not by a third party
(daycare, nanny, etc.) Please, do not have children if you
do not have the time to do it right.
-
Breastfeed infants for 18 to
24 months. This is a perfect food - contains the right types of essential
fatty acids for brain development and antibodies to limit infections.
An important maternal benefit is noted in a study published
in the 13 January 1994 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine,
"If women who do not breast feed or breast feed for less than three months
were to do so for four to twelve months, breast cancer among parous premenopausal
women could be reduced by 11%, judging from current rates. If all
women with children lactated for 24 months or longer, however, then the
incidence might be reduced by nearly 25%. This reduction would be
even greater among women who first lactate at an early age."
-
Give children filtered water*
instead of sugar-laden juices or fruit drinks. *While chlorine is
essential to maintain water microbiologically pure in the pipes - it should
not be consumed. At minimum, a filter should remove chlorine and
the by-products of chlorination as well as any contaminants larger than
0.10 micron.
-
Do not give children baths or
showers with chlorinated water. Use a chlorine- removing filter.
-
Swim in pools treated with bromine,
not chlorine.
-
Fresh fruit, not cereal, is
the best breakfast food.
-
Read to all pre-school children
daily and teach them to read when they are 3 to 5 years old. The
book, Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons, by Siegfried
Engelmann (ISBN 0-346-12557-X) is excellent.
-
Except for very special occasions,
no child should watch more than 1 hour of television or videos each day.
TV dulls the imagination, glorifies bad behavior, undermines parental authority
and promotes an insatiable desire for things.
-
A child is not the center of
the universe or of the family. You will create a monster if you do
not teach him his proper, subordinate position.
-
Give children much more of your
time and much less of material goods. It is the quantity of time,
not its quality, that truly matters.
-
Children never out-grow the
need for hugs and kisses, especially from their fathers. Within the
limits of human intellectual capacity, our notion of our heavenly Father's
love is colored by how our own fathers have love us. For many of
you, that notion, regrettably, is so deficient. Do you carry the
wound, that devastating, soul-piercing wound, that your father never showed
you how much he loved you? Even if he told you he loved you, he did
not demonstrate it. How you longed for a hug, warm embrace or tender
touch that would have filled your cup to overflowing! Please, do
two things. First, forgive your father, he loved you exactly as his
own father had loved him. And, second, SHOW your children how much
you love them. They will be eternally grateful!
FOR ADULTS:
-
Engage in the equivalent of
1/2 hour of moderate physical activity at least five days each week.
-
Supplement your diet with vitamins
and minerals, especially antioxidants. Select products which are
made to pharmaceutical standards.
-
Drink filtered water* instead
of bottled water or soft drinks. Bottled water spends many months
soaking up vinyl chloride and other chemicals from the container.
*While chlorine is essential to maintain water microbiologically pure in
the pipes - it should not be consumed. At minimum, a filter should remove
chlorine and the by-products of chlorination as well as any contaminants
larger than 0.10 micron.
-
Do not bathe or shower with
chlorinated water. Use a chlorine-removing filter.
-
Swim in pools/hot tubs treated
with bromine, not chlorine.
-
Keep yourself alkaline.
Urine with a pH of 7.4 is optimal; check with pH paper strips. I
know of more and more cases of people beating cancer by following
these strategies: 1. drinking copious quantities of super-oxygenated,
alkaline water 2. reducing protein intake to third-world nutritional levels
3. avoiding soft drinks, coffee, tea and citrus juice 3. avoiding stress
4. basking in the warmth of far-infrared rays at the resonant frequencies
of organic acids and 5. taking barium salts as recommended by an alternative
health-care practitioner.

The more you give - the more

Suggestions
-
Do not mix plastics with food
or water . Do not heat foods in plastic containers in microwave ovens.
Do not drink fluids stored in plastic - except lexan polycarbonate (recycling
code "7" in the triangle).
-
Avoid "fake fats". This
includes trans-fatty acids and partially hydrogenated vegetable oils.
-
Limit intake of saturated fats.
This includes fats from animal sources as well as coconut oil (sometimes
called palm oil or tropical oil).
-
Avoid aluminum - use glass or
stainless steel pots, pans and utensils.
-
Avoid acidic beverages - coffee,
tea,
soft drinks and certain fruit juices.
-
Sleep 7 to 8 hours each night
in a dark room. Do not turn on any light, even if nature calls.
Learn how to feel your way to the toilet.
-
Never smoke.
-
Avoid all mind-altering chemicals,
including alcohol.
-
Though human brains do contain
cannabinoid receptors, these are for the naturally-occuring "chemicals
of un-remembering" NOT for Cannabis sativa.
-
Avoid clutter and excessive
"busy-ness"; both distract you from what truly matters.
Avoid reading, watching
or listening to "news". It is either bad-news or non-news (promotion
of network programming or celebrity gossip). We stopped subscribing
to the local newspaper years ago and have not missed anything important.
Learning about death, mayhem and tragedy, in another town or another continent,
to some, is like witnessing it first-hand, causing the highly stressful
"fight or flight" hormonal response. Others become depressed.
