Guest guest Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 The words " toxic " and " detox " can be used in various ways. Excess calories and excess weight cause cellular congestion, and caloric poisoning, which is body toxic. Futile cycling of the cellular mitochondria to burn excess calories is toxic, creating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and excess free radicals. See Caloric Poisoning: http://www.optimal.org/peter/Calorie%20Poisoning.htm Excess metabolic cellular debris is toxic, resulting in protein misfolding, DNA transcription errors, and in the worst case scenario, a body cancer due to defective cell nuclear genetics. CR Mice are strongly resistant to cancer. Walford and other authors also use the concept of detox to discuss negative reactions that occur due to healthful quick changes to weight and diet. Even the intake of excess fiber (from too many veggies) can cause gastric distress, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, and chronic indigestion. These are classic reactions. More fiber is healthy, but an unhealthy response occurs. For us CRONies here, let's think of toxicity more in the sense of caloric poisoning and the chronic degenerative diseases of aging related to the symptoms of caloric poisoning: http://www.optimal.org/peter/Calorie%20Poisoning.htm -- Warren Oh, quick question. If names and identities are omitted from messages, is it OK to cross-post emails on this list to another list? I do not want to be guilty of breach of netiquette by improperly cross-posting to another list. Other news lists, including the largest collection of news lists in the world -- the Usenet News Groups, which preceded the Internet and that are still very active today (and archived on Google) -- are extensively cross-reference and cross-posted. This happens because message content is important and of great value to share. Much of the Usenet News content is posted on many internet sites now, all around the world, and in HTML format. The old Usenet News Groups historically marked the birth phases of the internet, when it was the original US Dept of Defense ARPANET. My CRONie writings (to include CRONie poems I wrote) have been cross-posted in this way on internet and elsewhere. They even appear in print, in The Hopkins Magazine. So reputable sources extract liberally and then publish, cross-post, and quote in public places such as email lists, internet websites, the journals, and newspapers. This free global dissemination of intellectual content underpins the value of the internet. Propagation of popular stereotypical themes (known as " memes " ) permeates our culture now. Blogs, wikiwebs, and RSS news feeds are the latest electronic incarnations. A message repeated elsewhere is a token recognition of value. Information longs to be free. > -----Original Message----- > From: Francesca Skelton [mailto:fskelton@...] > Sent: Monday, December 08, 2003 9:19 AM > > Subject: Re: [ ] Beginner Startup Program Using Soups > > > Warren: many think the " detox " is a lot of hooey. > > > on 12/8/2003 11:25 AM, Warren at warren.taylor@... wrote: > > > Healthy soup will clean you (detox you slowly), will protect > > you against too rapid a dietary change (very gentle), and > > provide a healthy way to eat for the rest of your life. > > Ask me for more ideas later, after a month or two. > > > > -- Warren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 Hi Warren: I am not a lawyer, but I would have thought that instead of being in violation of netiquette, you would, instead, (or perhaps as well) be in violation of copyright laws. I may me mistaken, but I don't think so. Is there a lawyer in the house? Rodney. > Oh, quick question.
