Guest guest Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Trouble Reading This? - Read It In The IMVA Site White MenacesHow to destroy Children’s Lives When we eat or give to our children white rice, white bread, white sugar or totally white salt it puts an absolutedemand that we supplement with magnesium and other minerals. One hardly needs to have a magnesium test if patient’s diet consists of any of the prominent white processed foods. White rice, white sugar, white bread and white pasta are white because they are stripped of their mineral, vitamin and fiber content. These are actually poisonous foods because of the consequences of them starving us of magnesium but it will be thousands of years before scientists and medical officials wake up to that fact. When consumed these foods and thousands of processed foods on the supermarket shelves, which are made with white sugar and white flour, demand that we supplement with magnesium or we are destined, without doubt, to breakdown and get sick. En mass we have sold out our health to a type of civilization that poisons its water and food and deprives the public of basic nutrition requirements. Yes we can eat these foods with less stress on bodies if we supplement heavily with lost vitamins and minerals but there is no way to make up lost fiber; and billions of people around the world cannot afford supplements. Refining and processing of cane sugar and whole grains has had far-ranging detrimental effects on the health of the entire western civilization. This has resulted in losses of minerals, vitamins, enzymes, fiber, antioxidants, probiotics, proteins, essential fats and phytonutrients. It renders the food into an "empty calorie" source with little or no nutritional value. Ninety percent of Americans' household food budget is spent on processed foods, the majority of which are filled with additives and stripped of nutrients. Choosing refined grains such as white bread, rolls, sugary low-fiber cereal, white rice, or white pasta over whole grains can boost your heart attack risk by up to 30 percent. At least seven major studies show that women and men who eat more whole grains (including dark bread, whole-grain breakfast cereals, popcorn, cooked oatmeal, brown rice, bran, and other grains like bulgur or kasha) have 20 to 30 percent less heart disease. In contrast, those who opt for refined grains have more heart attacks, insulin resistance, and high blood pressure. When rice is made, it goes through a variety of processes, including going through a husker to remove the grain husks. Once that process is done, brown rice is made. However, to make white rice, there are added steps that are needed. To get white rice, the inner husk (or bran) is removed and the grain is polished using glucose. This may not seem like much of a difference, but it removes several important nutrients. To get those nutrients back, many companies then reintroduce those same nutrients from synthetic sources. Those lost nutrients are not put back in so we can expect to see deficiencies in Vitamin E, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Folacin, Potassium, Magnesium and Iron from those who consume white rice. The dietary fiber of white rice is a quarter of what is in brown rice. Everything has sugar in it. It is the cheapest preservative the food industry uses to increase the shelf life of processed foods. This highly refined substance we call sugar is devoid of any of the essential elements necessary for its efficient metabolism by the organism. To compensate for this, the body borrows B vitamins from the reserves in the tissues. This weakens the nervous system causing hyperactivity in children and more involved disease problems for adults. A diet filled with refined sugars is one cause of behavior problems, moods swings, and attention deficits in young children. Sugar is, by far, the greatest addiction in the United States. It is far more excessive than all other forms of substance abuse combined. Consider that in 1895 the average American consumed 3 to 4 pounds of sugar per year. Today, the average American consumes his or her own bodyweight in sugar every year. All of this highly refined "rocket fuel" must be metabolized rapidly by the pancreas. The pancreas must produce insulin, the hormone responsible for converting blood glucose into the stored form glycogen and eventually triglycerides. Old time mills ground flour slowly, but today’s mills are designed for mass-production, using high-temperature, high-speed steel rollers. The resulting white flour is nearly all starch, and even much of today’s commercially processed whole wheat flour has lost a fair amount of nutritional value due to these aggressive processing methods. Nearly everyone knows that white flour is not healthy for us for so much is lost in the refining process: Half of the beneficial unsaturated fatty acidsVirtually all of the vitamin EFifty percent of the calciumSeventy percent of the phosphorusEighty percent of the ironNinety eight percent of the magnesiumFifty to 80 percent of the B vitamins There are also chemical treatments in the processing that result in the formation of alloxan in the flour. Alloxan, or C4 H2O4N2, is a product of the decomposition of uric acid. According to Dr. Hari Sharma’s Freedom from Disease, alloxan causes free radical damage to DNA in the beta cells of the pancreas, causing them to malfunction and die. Scientists have long known that alloxan produces selective destruction of the beta cells of the pancreas, causing hyperglycemia and ketoacidosis in laboratory animals. Alloxan is structurally similar to glucose, which might explain why the pancreatic beta cells selectively take it up.

He is able to work without much problem as long as he does not lift heavy weights but yesterday I saw him lift and move two heavy bags of cement without suffering. His actual complaint has more to do with severe leg cramps though he is not potassium deficient in his diet. Typical third world diet consists of WHITE RICE, WHITE BREAD AND WHITE PASTA. His physician typically does not think about magnesium deficiency and would just cut this gentleman up risking a lifetime of pain and agony, which is a risk of major back surgery. The chance of his obvious magnesium deficiency (no test needed) not being involved in his pain and cramps is ZERO. Magnesium deficiency ALWAYS leads to a breakdown in some organ or system eventually causing pain and discomfort. Cessation of breath ALWAYS leads to death; deprivation of water for ten days will ALWAYS lead to death. Recommendation for this man - heavy magnesium supplementation through oral and mostly transdermal approaches. It is impossible to practice real medicine without practicing magnesium medicine for the vast majority of people suffering from disease are suffering from magnesium deficiency whether their blood shows it or not.
