Fruitarian Delight
This
is not true. Read this with some deeper thought:
There
is actually nothing wrong with the fruit — when grown naturally and
organic — it is ‘humanity’, “WE”, who are not as yet able to
absorb the valuable ingredients of the fruit. Think of this! Fruitarianism
is not an isolated idea, nor is it just a fad.
Scientific proof is substantiated by intensive research and
studies on the teeth of our earliest ancestors.
Dr Alan Walker and his associates, anthropologists at John
Hopkins University, using the most modern electronic microscopic
equipment, state: “Preliminary
studies of fossil teeth have led to the startling suggestion that our
early human ancestors (Australoptheans) were not predominantly
meat-eaters or even eaters of seeds, shoots, leaves or grasses, nor were
they omnivorous. Instead
they appear to have subsisted chiefly on a diet of fruit.
Every tooth examined from the hominids of the 12 million year
period leading up to Homo Erectus appeared to be that of a
fruit-eater.” Published
in the New
York
Times,
May 1979, A
predominant fruit diet brings great benefit to
physical
and
mental well-being.
The reason for this is because FRUIT IS A LIVE
FOOD!. (being
an “ALIVE”
food).
Fruit is
laden with
enzymes, fruit is already partly in a pre-digested state, it is ripened
by the Sun. When we pick
the fruit it stays alive for quite a long time, keeps ripening.
By eating fruit we do not destroy any life. Fruit has the seed
within itself and by spreading the seed we co-operate with the
reproduction of new fruit. Of course, vegetables are “Alive” also, however there is a difference! The difference is that as soon as a vegetable has been ‘cut’ from its source, it will wilt and every housewife knows that you have to keep vegetables wet and cool in the fridge. We can observe the watering hoses in supermarkets and green grocer shops. This is not the case with fruit, as stated above, fruit will even keep ripening, while most fruit will keep well for many days even outside of the fridge.. We have within our reach the possession of the most BEAUTIFUL
JEWEL The
JEWEL
of
TRUE
HEALTH It
costs you nothing but the change in your diet and lifestyle YOU
WILL NEVER REGRET THAT YOU MADE THE EFFORT Eating
fruit is harmless, nothing is disadvantaged.
Our bodies are also LIVE bodies, our trillions of cells are
constantly renewing and they need nutrition that is ALIVE.
How can dead food bring life?
How can we enhance our physical and mental well-being with foods
which have lost virtually
most of their
value by cooking and baking? Is
it not understood that heat and fire destroy?
Even a child knows this. Why
then does most of humanity still stick to the cooking of
food? When heat
destroys life — observe the many deserts in countries where the heat
of the sun has ‘burned’ out LIVE, no more trees and shrubs, etc..
—- and the same happens
to food that is heated! Why
the refusal to see this? Ask
yourself about the FACT/TRUTH of
this! Of all foods, fruit has one of the highest cleansing capacities and when on a predominantly fruit diet, the body makes use of this cleansing capacity to detoxify itself and then to eliminate those toxins. This really is the ‘secret’ of the diet, its cleansing abilities and giving the body a chance to purify itself. Here
again, there is a subtle difference between fruit and vegetables. Most,
if not all vegetables originated from herbs.
Herbs are medicinal and contain a natural “antidote”, a mild
natural poison which are kind of “healing”, actually, poisons may
suppress symptoms. So,
taking an ‘overall’ picture, vegetables are generally healing while
fruit is generally cleansing. A
purified body will never be subject to any ill-health or disease.
We are being told that viruses and bacteria are “roaming”
around and
are invading
us. I ask you, would flies swarm around a clean dustbin!!
Hence,
when you have a toxic body, the bacteria have a chance to feed on those
toxins and bring forth illness and disease. Has
“Providence” made your life in such a way that you “have to”
suffer illness
and disease? Do
you think it is
because you are
getting older,
or do you think it is “natural”,
just part of human life? Would
the ‘Creator’ have made a mistake?
Having healthy, alive animals, birds, fish, insects etc. in the
wild, but a sick humanity on this Planet Earth? Think of this! No,
humanity
is
sick because humans are eating foods which are not suitable for
their bodies, and this results in the accumulation of toxins.
In turn, this also will affect the mind! Does it not make sense
that when you feel not well, there are all kinds of negative thoughts,
is it not ’irritating’ that you are restricted in what you want to
do because of your illness? Think
of this! Do
you know that the body is actually “Self-Healing”? It always
endeavours to stay alive, we know well how humans can survive in the
most terrible circumstances. This
is because the body uses first its not so essential elements before it
starts to use the vital parts of the body. We may be aware of the
stories of people in the concentration camps during WWII. What
is your illness, or your disease? Now,
this is a contentious part,
which may be totally new to you. It is outlined in the philosophies and
principles of “Natural Hygiene” and it is the innate intelligence of
the body itself, — being an “alive” body — created and made up
of the trillions of LIVE cells that institute a “HEALING
CRISIS”. The
‘self healing body’ creates this
‘healing crisis’ to rid itself of poisons and THIS
is your so called illness or disease.
Try
to understand this. When
you get a fever, it is the body telling you something. It tells you to
take action and to give the body a rest by a fast on water for a day or
two days. (don’t fast for longer than 3 days on water when you are not
familiar with the process, seek advice from someone experienced in this
area). When
you get a ‘cold’, or the ‘flu’, this is nothing more than a
‘healing crisis’ and instead of using drugs and medicines, which
themselves contain poisons only suppressing the symptom, cooperate with
that crisis and rest, drink a home-made vegetable or fruit juice, eat
little only, or fast for a day or two.
The same is happening when the healing crisis involves the more
sensitive parts of your body, like the liver, the kidneys, the lungs,
when you get a ‘boil’ on the skin etc.
All these are signs from your body that there is something to be
rejected from it and this is the toxicity which causes your crisis and
the toxicity in turn was caused by the eating of foods which are not
suitable for your body and includes cooked, dead food!
Try to understand this, think of it! Bacteria
are all around us and within us. They form part of our natural life and
belong to this planet Earth. It
is your duty to look after your “temple” and not give the bad
bacteria a chance to feed on toxins! By
changing your diet to all raw food and eventually to a predominantly
fruit diet, and changing your way of thinking, .could bring great
benefits
to your physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Any
such change-over must take place on a GRADUAL basis,
as too fast a detoxification may cause problems.
Think of it how natural a raw food/fruitarian diet is, how
logical it is to eat LIVE
food, experiment
for yourself a bit and see how it will work for you. You
be surprised how easy it really is! The
easiest way to start your journey towards the
life-giving path is to eat fresh
fruit on an empty stomach in the mornings. Later in the day have a nice
salad, easy to fantasize nice ones.
There are books with “Raw recipes”. Have some snack in
between of some nuts, some seed, some dried fruit etc.
Keep on to your ’old’ diet later on, however, try to diminish
your intake of the non-live food. Like
coffee, teas, commercial drinks, meat, dairy products, eggs, white sugar
sweets and chocolate and more. No smoking, less or no alcohol! Just take
less of each and gradually go over to the better Natural diet. Maybe
some can do certain changes at once, that’s fine, but most may need to
go gradually. You
will be going to feel a difference.
The body, getting more of the natural food, will commence a
detoxification process with some discomforts that go with it, but
cooperate. You may feel
your weight going down, you may feel lethargic, tired, or get certain
symptoms, even mentally! These
are all signs that the detoxification is working for you—cooperate!
