Background: Sometime before 2003 I started my search for a better, healthier diet. I believe the Bible is true and it was my starting point to find something like Daniel's diet, "pulse" (Daniel 1:12 & 1:16 KJV) . About 2003 I started this page to chronicle my research results. The History of Sugar Consumption surprised me at the deficiency of our Food & Drug Administration. Later the healthy diet drifted toward eliminating junk food which became known as processed foods like: margarine and chips and "foods" with large amounts of added sugars (high fructose corn syrup, etc, etc.) which did not add any nutritional value but rather, excessive carbohydrates. Eliminate those snacks that never satisfy. They are manufactured for that purpose. Sugar Articles I & II below with additional history of food science and government irresponsibilities (2007?) were included. About 2011? the local city government started adding the EPA's hazardous waste material Fluoride to the drinking water; so, Fluoride references were added because of its suspicious connections to a multitude of diseases. About that time the word inflammation was used to describe the underlying cause of some or most of the serious chronic diseases. So the object was to get as much of the inflammation causing products out of the diet. Additional things besides sugar and carbohydrates like: Fluoride, other hazardous wastes, poisons and pesticides as much as reasonably possible out of the diet. This required rather large(costly) laboratory blood analyzes. Later diet changes under consideration included a short list of links to GMO i.e. Genetically Modified Organisms and products with excessive amounts of hormones and antibacterial medications that are added to meat products. Healthful topics recently reported by Lori Johnson on CBN.com are: Microbiome i.e good gut bacteria probiotics that strengthens your immune system, Epigenetics, Essential Oils and other beneficial natural plants and products. Although all of this is good information the practical application has to include compromises. If you can believe the truth and have patience for your taste buds and body to adjust to the new diet you will not want to go back. If you bust Daniel's Diet for 2-4 weeks say for a broken refrigerator where a lot of fast food is consumed, it will take 1-3 weeks to reestablish your diet, taste buds, gut bacteria and it's health benefits.'Note: As of Nov 2018 several youtube.com video links have broken. It's assumed that it is because of youtube's opposition and censorship to the content of the video. Typically the producer's name and other video information is enough to find the video or the author's articles somewhere else. Most other broken links have been fixed or substitutes found to describe and advertise the topic(s).
| History of Sugar Consumption:
I
read an article that sugar consumption per person in the UK in the
1600's was about 7 lbs./yr. (world wide sugar shortage) and that by
the 1850's in the USA it was about 52 lbs/yr and that in the USA
today (2003) it is some where around 150 lbs/yr. In other
words: 1600's = 7 lb/52 wk = 0.135 lb/wk; = 17.46 tsp/wk; = 2.50 tsp/day 1850's = 52 lb/52wk = 1.0 lb/wk.; = 129.7 tsp/wk ; = 18.53 tsp/day 2003 = 150 lb/52wk = 3.0 lb/wk. ; = 389.1 tsp/wk ; = 55.59 tsp/day! [ 0.43 lb/day!] Article #1 below suggests a limit of 10 teaspoons per day which is ~ 35 grams. [Click current graph  ] [Where
ADDED Sugar Comes From. Not listed is the added sugars
by
different names: high fructose corn syrup, dextrose etc. This graph
shows that anyone could easily reduce their sugar intake by 80%
without too much trouble.] |

"The
density
of granulated sugar is 0.7 g/cc."The density of granulated sugar is 0.405 oz/in^3 so 1 lb. of sugar contains approximately: 454 g/lb x 1 cc x 1 mL x 1 tsp = 129.71 tsp 0.7 g 1 cc 5 mL where: 1 tsp = 5ml ; 1 cc = 1 ml ; 1 tsp = 5 cc or 1 tsp of granulated sugar = 3.5 g. |

The 12 oz. can of soda
(Pepsi) I looked at today had 41 g. of sugar which is roughly
equivalent to: 41/3.5 = 11.7 tsp of granulated
sugar! A
lot of fruit punch drinks are the same! What we need is to
have our thirst quenched without sugar added; but, water gets old
quick. Why not fill up a pint glass with 75% water and 25%
real orange juice or any other real juice or a slice of
lemon. The water is what we need. The juice adds
just
enough taste to mask the boring taste of the water.I.

That article above came from https://www.lowcarb.ca/articlesb/article314.html Concerning the increasing prevalence of diabetes, what I would like to see is a graph of the rising sugar consumption per capita and the rising diabetes malady overlaid on each other. If I were to guess, I'd guess that they would be very similar except for a time delay of about 20 years or less. You might as well overlay various cancers on the graph while you are at it.Article # 2.
Type I
(Juvenile Onset, Insulin
Dependent) Diabetes
SnipIf there are Musts to Avoid for a diabetic, they may well include the following: ONE: Eliminate Sugar No one would tell a child with a broken leg to jump off
the
garage roof. But perhaps we should not even let children
without broken legs jump off the garage roofs. Dietitians
would never recommend that diabetics regularly eat lots of sweets.
Yet the vast majority of us over consume sugar to the Nth
degree. Can this not only aggravate diabetes, but actually
CAUSE it? In the case of Type II, it is almost certainly so.
And with Type I, the risk is there. There is no downside to
avoiding sugar except, perhaps, for putting your local dentist on
unemployment. To begin with, this book has nothing to do with the artificial sweetener known as saccharin. The Saccharine Disease refers to excess sugar consumption as a key cause of chronic disease in our time. Dr. Cleave, formerly a Surgeon-Captain of the British Royal Navy, wishes us to pronounce it "saccar-RHINE," like the German river. That we can do. What we will have a harder time doing is admitting that he is correct in ascribing colitis, peptic ulcer, varicose veins, coronary heart disease, and diabetes to excess intake of simple carbohydrates. A theory like that one needs a book to explain it and a lifetime of experience as a doctor behind it. Here are both. It is party line medicine (and dietetics) that sugar consumption is pretty much connected only with tooth decay and obesity. Since the 1950's, Dr. Cleave has been a voice in the wilderness, informing doctors of what they do not want to believe and patients of what they do not want to do. Only the sturdiest readers want to tangle with a book that relentlessly takes them to task one sweet tooth at a time. References are provided with each chapter, and suggestions for improved diet are compactly set forth in an Appendix. The Saccharine Disease is somewhat dry reading, although this is compensated for by its overwhelming scientific importance. If there is indeed a root cause of illness, and that cause is our everyday use of sugar, it will take plenty of straight science to convince us to change our ways. Even then, really innovative science has a way of being kept from the public, not by being disproved, but by being ignored. If Dr. Cleave has been largely unsuccessful in influencing health policy so far, perhaps you will want to take up the banner after reading this book. |
There was a time when the director of the FDA (known then as the Bureau of Chemistry) was willing to state that sugar consumption could indeed cause diabetes. (Wiley, H. A History of a Crime Against the Food Law, 1929). It has been shown that milk consumption in childhood contributes to the development of Type-I diabetes. Certain proteins in milk resemble molecules on the beta cells of the pancreas that secrete insulin. In some cases, the immune system makes antibodies to the milk protein that mistakenly attack and destroy the beta cells Even so august an authority on children as the late Dr. Benjamin Spock changed his recommendations in his later years and discouraged giving children milk. (Dr. Julian Whitaker's Health & Healing Newsletter, October 1998, Vol. 8, No. 10.)

fluoride recommended for fluoridation programs (the sacrosanct "1.0

An examination of the scientific

the
case. Dr M A Roshal, in a
1965 issue of the
journal issued by the Leningrad Medical Institute, reported that
intake of fluoride - even at the apparently "safe" concentration of
1.0 part per million - caused derangements
in
blood sugar balance.

This means that the optimum adult daily water consumption of 8 glasses/cups of water would equal an ingestion of : Approximately: 8 cups = 8 x 8 fl. oz/cup = 64 fl oz x 1 L./33.8 oz = 1.89 mg Fluoride/day. or 689.2 mg/year or 3,446.2 mg/5years which is equal to 3.44 Liters of Fluoride over 5 years.
