Speckled bananas and mangoes are the only ones I will buy. A bird picked mango was the best. As kids we picked up jamoon and ginip from the ground, brushed off the dirt and threw it right into our mouths. I have never been sick except for the occasional flu and even that will not affect me anymore with my new eating lifestyle. I saw so many kids in the country side, all snatty nose, dirty singlet, sticking some chicken poop in their mouths. These kids grew up healthy as an ox. You go to St. Judes hospital and see 2 and 5 year olds, suffering from cancer, diabetes,rhumatism,lukemia, you name it. Why is that? A study recently conducted at Harvard Medical school, found that we are comprised of only one tenth human cells. The rest of our bodies are made up of over 100,000 types of bacteria, viruses and parasites both externally and internally. Some of these micro organisms are essential to our lives, we would die without their presence. We need to eat healthy, which should be a lot of raw vegetables, grain, fruits and herbs. That's it. All of the diseases of cancer, diabetes, rhumatism, etc only came about after we started filling our diet with refined processed foods and artifical vitamins. Our ancestors has no food quality controls, they foraged, picked up the food where ever they found it and ate it. The entire medical and health industries, set us up to be constantly sick in body and mind. We should go to the doctor every six months for a mamogram, a pap smear, a colon test. We wake up in the morning and need a caffeine fix and some nicotine. We have a headache, take a pill, we have stomach ache, take a pill,we watch too much TV, there is now a pill for that. Too much internet a pill for that also. No wonder we are such a sick nation of drug abusers. When I first came to the USA I instantly began putting on weight with all of the cheap sweet junk foods I ate. I am watching TV with all this news about chloresterol that has now clogged my heart and arteries that when time came for my first physical checkup, I was prepared for the worst. Come on doc, dont lie to me, just tell me how many months I have to live and get it over with. He told me I was in perfect health. I was reborn again in that instant. Our molecules are constantly evesdropping on our thoughts. If we constantly think about negative things, about sickness, disease and germs. We will eventually succumb to our sublimial thought suggestions, become sick and die. That is why you find that 10 people are subjected to the same environmental conditions but only one become sick. An old lady in her eighties sitting at the market place with a cigarette stub stuck to her lips and chatting away and another person who said they were only exposed to second hand smoke has lung cancer. So the next time you go to the market and your ripe mango falls out of your hands, do not throw it away. Pick it up, brush it off and give it to me. I will eat it and nothing will happen. Joe.
