Hello Gail,

 

Undenatured cystine is best known to produce a more potent master

antioxidant glutathione. There are other undenatured antioxidants that also

augment this. If they are heated they still boost glutathione but at much weaker

levels. The growth and immune factors of raw milk also boost production of

glutathione. Some vitamins and minerals may also play a role in the production

of glutathione. Foods like onions may also have an effect on glutathione, not

too sure.

Raw foods carry their own natural digestive enzymes and probiotics. I don't know

how your body goes about produces probiotics and digestive enzymes, that's a

very technical question.

<<<<Are you saying undenatured (uncooked) proteins boost glutathione and that

undenatured protein, glutathione or antioxidants create probiotics or that they

lead to the creation of probiotics?>>>

You can produce serotonin and hgh when you exercise. You can also get hgh and

from raw milk or raw colostrum. Some amino acids can aid in the release of

serotonin. Serotonin and hgh or released together in balance. Your stomach's

probiotics account for most of your serotonin production. Depression is higher

than ever and we eat a mostly cooked and refined food diet. Eskimos were said to

be the happiest people on Earth and they ate an almost purely raw food diet.

They set meat out to age for up to a year called " high meat " so it would be

predigested. It's probiotic content multiplies. Aajonus Vonderplantiz, a raw

foodist, says eating high meat or probiotic rich foods can alleviate years of

depression just after one swallow. If you keep your gut bacteria healthy and in

optimal numbers you will have greater moods. Sometimes depression isn't just

situational, but can be due to nutrition.

Can't say if digestive enzymes are linked to serotonin and hgh. Your body uses

it's own reserves to make it's own enzymes when the diet is absent in them. This

leads to a weaker immune system that gets attacked by foreign invaders more

often. You may also develop allergies and digestive problems to many cooked

foods. I believe Sally Fallon Morrell said in her book " Nourishing Traditions "

that years without adequate digestive enzymes leads to the body aging faster.

 

<<<Does the production of serotonin and hgh require an external source of

digestive enzymes or at least enzymes from raw food in addition to the enzymes

that the body provides? >>>>

Protein plays a part in the production of serotonin. As you can see from the

above there are other factors to consider. The healthiest cutlures and the

healthiest animals ate a purely raw food diet. Raw dairy and raw meat, fat,

organs, and glands sometimes fermented ang aged were a big part to their

health. Kimchi, Beet Kvass, and Sauerkraut are also great choices.

 

<<I thought that the complete digestion of protein led to effective production

of serotonin, glutathione as well as hormones. (But I have no formal training in

this area so I my understanding is very general.) >>

If you read Sally Fallon's Nourishing Traditions you'll see raw foods were a

regular part of society, including Europe, up until a century ago at the

beginning of the Industrial age. Some cultures have a 90% raw food diet whereas

others had a 50/50 raw cooked diet. Our health has been on the decline within

the last 100 years. Weston A. Price and many other great pioneers of that time

started to see physical degeneration within cultures. Read " Nutrition and

Physical Degeneration " whenever you get a chance. Now in days we have a number

of growing health problems: aesteoperosis, arthritis, bone loss, clogged

arteries, cancer, depression, 1/100 children are born autistic in the USA,

higher rate of criminality, the list goes on.

 

The only cooked food our body's have adapted to produce a greater abundance of

digestive enzymes for are starches. That is because our guts cannot process raw

starches. Over time raw starches take a toll on our health. Simple carbs in

excess are bad for our health so man ate a higher proportion of their carbs as

starches. I've heard it takes 500 generations for our body to evolve an adaption

like that.

<<<<Do we have to conclude that externally provided enzymes are required for

digestion of cooked food because our bodies were not designed for cooked food?

If that is the case why is it that the generations that preceded us survived and

in some cases thrived on cooked food without digestive enzymes being widely

available at stores or elsewhere? (Maybe cleaner and less processed food was

available?) If man did not need them in the past and does need them now, it

seems possible that we are evolving into a situation where people are losing

their digestive capacity and will have to rely on externally digestive enzymes

(or other tools) to survive as a species.>>>

I don't see how it could create a dependency but I'd prefer the raw foods rather

than supplementing. Sometimes it's safer for someone to supplement first to

build up their health before they consume raw foods. A virus from raw food my

body can handle could kill a sickly person who hasn't built up their health. A

better choice than digestive enzyme supplements is to have some fermented raw

food with your meals. A piece of raw starch, doesn't have to be much maybe the

size of a pea, fermented kimchi, sauerkraut, and Beet Kvass. Raw proteins like

raw eggs, raw milk, and sushi are also great choices. So you can mix cooked food

and raw food together.

So, there are a couple amino acids that play a part in activating the master

antioxidant glutathione. Undenatured cystine is best at activating a greater

quanitity of master antioxidant glutathione.

 

Whey is best known for activating the most potent effects of glutathione. One

reason is because it absorbs to quickly. 6 hour colostrum is the best

choice and raw milk is the second best choice for activating glutathione IMO.

They contain vitamins, minerals, lechithin, cla, hgh, immune factors, and

undenatured proteins.

I'm thinking about:

www.nutritionaltherapy.com

http://www.foodrenegade.com/introducing-an-e-course-in-traditional-foods-prepara\

Then I was thinking of doing some kind of personal training certification too.

Yoga cert, those would be a good combination....

Hello ,

Thanks for all this information (which I need to digest). I asked about enzymes

because I recently attended a training course pertaining to digestive enzymes.

The instructor mentioned many health applications and benefits (very appealing,

I'm sure many people went home planning to use the enzymes). However I had the

impression that using enzymes for her and for her clients was a lifetime

commitment. That is okay if people realize that it is for life. As I have asked

around no one seems to agree whether or not the body needs to continue using the

enzymes after improvement has been met. Of course it could be that practitioners

that I talked to have success with their individual protocols when they use

digestive enzymes so questions like mine have not come up.

On a separate note... Are you person on this list who was investigating

nutrition training programs? If so which one did you think was the best? I did

see one in England (ION) which looked interesting but the clinical training is

in England so it would not work for me.
