Tom's Blog on Life

Who had the audacity to write such an against-the-grain book exposing “healthy whole grains” for the incredibly destructive genetic monsters they’ve become?
That’s me, Dr. William Davis, cardiologist and seeker-of-truth in health. Over 80% of the people I meet today are pre-diabetic or diabetic. In an effort to reduce blood sugar, I asked patients to remove all wheat products from their diet based on the simple fact that, with few exceptions, foods made of wheat flour raise blood sugar higher than nearly all other foods. Yes, that’s true for even whole grains. More than table sugar, more than a Snickers bar. Organic, multigrain, sprouted–it makes no difference.
People returned several months later and did indeed show lower blood sugar, often sufficient for pre-diabetics to be non-prediabetics. But it was the other results they described that took me by surprise: weight loss of 25 to 30 lbs over several months, marked improvement or total relief from arthritis, improvement in asthma sufficient to chuck 2 or 3 inhalers, complete relief from acid reflux and irritable bowel syndrome symptoms, disappearance of leg swelling and numbness. Most reported increased mental clarity, deeper sleep, and more stable moods and emotions. I witnessed even more incredible experiences like the 26-year old man incapacitated by full-body joint pains who started to jog again, pain-free. And the 38-year old schoolteacher who, just weeks before her surgeon scheduled colon removal and ileostomy bag, experienced cure—cure—from ulcerative colitis and intestinal hemorrhage–and stopped all medications. That’s when I knew that I had to broadcast this message. Wheat Belly was the result.
I’m not promoting drugs, fancy medical procedures, or costly equipment. I’m not promoting a process that makes a pharmaceutical company rich or helps a hospital gain more revenue-producing procedures. I’m talking about a simple change in diet that yields incredible and unexpected health benefits in so many more ways than you’d think. And it’s not just about celiac disease, the destructive intestinal disease from wheat gluten that affects 1% of the population. It’s about all the other destructive health effects of wheat consumption, from arthritis to acid reflux to schizophrenia, caused or made worse by this food we are advised to eat more of. It’s about being set free from the peculiar appetite-stimulating effects of the opiate-like compounds unique to wheat. It’s also about losing weight–10, 20, or 30 pounds is often just the start–all from this thing I call wheat belly. The key to understanding wheat’s undesirable effects is to recognize that the total effect on human health is greater than the sum of its parts.

Between 1990 and 2010, US spending on prescription drugs rose from $40 billion to more than $230 billion annually.
A 2010 study analyzed trends in criminal and civil actions against drug companies, and revealed that the drug industry is the biggest defrauder of the federal government under the False Claims Act. Despite stiffer financial penalties, criminal activity has increased dramatically in the past five years, indicating that criminal prosecution of company leadership may be needed to quell unlawful behavior by the pharmaceutical industry.
The worst of the worst are GlaxoSmithKline, Pfizer, Eli Lilly, and Schering-Plough. These four companies accounted for 53 percent of all financial penalties imposed on pharmaceutical companies between 1990 and 2010.
Last year, the Bureau of Investigative Journalists also highlighted the vast ongoing corruption within the pharmaceutical industry. Many pharmaceutical companies are repeatedly found guilty of fraud, cover-ups of fatal side effects, paying huge kickbacks to doctors, and manipulating scientific research.
A total of 19 drug companies also made AllBusiness.com’s Top 100 Corporate Criminals List for the 1990s.

I am listening to a lecture series given in 1957 by a researcher who identified a progressive decline in awareness of the general population coincident with the sustained release of radiation into the atmosphere by atomic bomb tests. No relevance at all in this day and age after Chernobyl and Fukishima. (Sarcasm.)
Not being one to enjoy being made dumber and sicker by fluoridated water, increased toxic burden from heavy metals, inadequate nutrition or a radiation laden atmosphere I am looking to increase the number of foods I eat that have the effect of removing radiation and toxins from the body.
Here is a list of some I have found:
Modifilan *
Chlorella *
Vitamin E *
Vitamin C *
Calcium
B group vitamins *
Lecithin *
Cod liver oil
Vitamin F – Unsat fatty acids
Fruit pectin *
Sunflower seeds *
Kelp *
Iodine *
Liver
Rosemary *
Apples *
Citrus fruit
Berries *
Zeolite Clay
Those with an asterisk are ingredients I have added to my top food bar. http://www.http://www.healthelicious.com.au/Peak-Performance-Bar.html

Some great data on what benefits this has to your body… http://www.dogcancer.net.au/cancer-whey-protein.php

Researchers at Australia’s Queensland University of Technology (QUT) have now developed what they say is a world-first intelligent absorbent that is capable of removing radioactive material from large amounts of contaminated water, resulting in clean water and concentrated waste that can be stored more efficiently. One gram can purify at least one ton of contaminated water! http://www.gizmag.com/radioactive-clean-up-absorbent-qut/20353/

Once released into the environment from industrial sources, trace amounts of heavy metals can remain present in waterways for decades, or even centuries, in concentrations that are still high enough to pose a health risk. While processes do exist for removing larger amounts of heavy metals from water, these do not work on smaller quantities. Now, however, scientists from Rhode Island’s Brown University have combined two existing methods, to create a new one that removes even trace amounts of heavy metal from water. http://www.gizmag.com/cep-removes-heavy-metals-from-water/20956/

Research published in the journal of the American Chemical Society claims that mashed up peel can remove heavy metals from river water. http://www.gizmag.com/banana-peel-finds-use-as-water-purifier/18126/

Dr. Maurice Hilleman’s secret vaccine recording emerged in 2011, causing shock waves of disbelief to spread across the internet as people heard this Merck scientist laughing it up with other scientists as they joked about all the people who would die from cancer tumors after taking vaccine shots. You can hear the recording yourself on NaturalNews.TV. Click this link for details: http://www.naturalnews.com/033584_Dr_Maurice_Hilleman_SV40.html
