Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Steve: They have a very strong effect and it has been proven many times. Attitude is at least 80% of the equation when it comes to health. We know that more people are cured by the idea of a cure than the drug in every study. Modern medicine spends all of its time separating out this powerful effect. While I am not a Dr. Weil fan, he noted once on public TV that this is where the real study should be done (and it makes sense). Placebo is just about everything. Now sit down and meditate your way to health. Longevity is an interesting afterthought since time is illusion. All of the smart guys taught this thousands of years ago and we still seem to lose track of this simple fact. It will be over before you know it, so enjoy the moment.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Hi: Although it is clear that attitude has a profound effect on the outcome of any treatment, (or any other pursuit in life for that matter) it would be difficult to substantiate that it is 80% or even a fixed percentage, covering every case. Placebo can be as high as 30% in rare cases. Its measured effect varies from study to study but never even comes close to 80%. I guarantee that if you just eat Macs or Dunkin' Donuts, you will become unhealthy before long, regardless of your attitude.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 : I concede. You caught me exaggerating again. I'll try & do better, but you do get the picture. Interesting story following your analogy: I was on vacation last week and had breakfast at a major chain restaurant. The guy at the adjacent table, very young and obviously successful, had four kids, no wife, and was doing a business deal with another couple at his table. His kids were sitting at an adjacent table and he was way too busy to focus on them. When it came time to order, he looked at each one and reasoned what they should have based on what they always liked to eat. That is, ordering for the kids was in between his main concern and it sounded like he always did it this very same way. .. He ordered a coke and two jelly donuts for his two year old (guessing ages) and cokes and pancakes topped with some other junk for the older ones who looked to be 4, 8 , & 13. He mentioned to the waitress that his daughter was a teenager who did not have time for food. The kids were delighted! It sounded like Bill Cosby's breakfast story with the chocolate cake, but they did not make up a song about him. I am sitting there wondering just how long these kids will live and what major diseases they will be struck with before they die and if any has a chance of surviving past 50 given this wonderful start? Finally, I wondered if he should be arrested for murdering his kids when they start coming down with incurable diseases? Any thoughts?

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Hi: My first thought, as the continuing title of this email was " Karma. " I'm quite agnostic when it comes to the Akashic Records, but this early sugary, high carbohydrate diet is setting these children up for diabetes, obesity, arthritis, heart disease, Alzheimer's, low immunity leading to cancer (a disease of the immune system) and many other maladies. You could call it Karmic retribution, almost. Yet, I doubt that there is a silver bullet here. Can we do something about it? I don't know. Well, if he gave his kids alcohol or drugs, we could have the protective services take them away and put them in foster care. He is doing something that, depending on the extent of either and which drug, may be far worse than what we can legally revoke the parent's custody for. Is that the answer? I doubt it - foster care is quite hazardous too. Just like the origin of the cosmos, there may be little you and I can do as individuals about it. Nevertheless, I guess you could have intervened and tried to lecture the dad. You could carry a stack of pamphlets with you, describing the dangers of highly refined carbohydrate diets and hand one to him discreetly so as not to embarrass him. We can insist that the truth about dietary balance - shown by real medical research - and NOT the ADC's evil pyramid, be taught in middle and high schools as mandatory classes... We could try to make restaurants serve more healthy meals. We could pass laws putting warning labels on store foods and restaurant menu items warning people of the health risks. There are a lot of politics and parental rights issues here too. So, the answer is that these solutions should all potentially be applied as much as feasible as any such or similar solution will only partly work. By the way recent evidence suggests that teenage acne (you mentioned one of his kids was teenage) comes from not just hormones, but high levels of blood sugar in combination with the high hormone levels. Yet another disease caused by high levels of sugar in the blood. I personally am not diabetic but I measure my blood sugar with a blood glucose meter after nearly every meal when I can and adjust accordingly. Keeping blood sugar low is one of the most powerful tools to longevity and is likely the reason that the restricted-diet method of anti-aging has gotten such excellent results. These meters are available at any drug store. I wish I had known about some of this stuff as a kid...... At 01:48 PM 8/7/2006, you wrote: >: > >I concede. You caught me exaggerating again.
