Foodmatters - Documentary About Food

Many people believe that all illnesses are caused by deficiencies in the body. Stress, for example, sucks up Vitamin C. A daily recommended dosage is based on an average; however, different people have different deficiencies.

I do believe in vitamin therapy. When I was younger my father would have migraines so badly that he would be confined to bed for two to four days. He couldn't even remember our names. He was incoherent; they were that bad. A couple of years ago I started getting migraines. I told my father about this during a telephone conversation. He informed me, "I haven't had a migraine in years." He then told me, "I take high doses of Riboflavin everyday. It has worked like a charm."

Since first watching this documentary I have started taking Niacin to help my mood. I can tell a difference, and I can definitely tell when I stop taking it. Many people with depression take 3,000 mg of Niacin a day. Some have taken 11,500 mg a day.

Many of us work our butts off, and we don't make the time to eat right. It's easier to hit a drive-thru. Our food isn't really food. It's processed and marketed as food. It is void of nutrients and mostly corn based. It's not even based on good corn. It's based on genetically modified corn. The next time you eat a hash brown from a fast-food restaurant really take the time to taste it. See if you don't taste the corn. Many times you can taste the corn in the beef. The beef that we eat is mostly cows that are feed genetically modified corn.

Eating raw, organic, or locally grown food literally changes your blood. Watch Crazy, Sexy, Cancer. There are people who have reversed their cancer by going through detox and changing what they eat. You cannot absorb the nutrients that you need if your colon is full of toxins. Our fat cells are full of toxins.

Water - Water - Water.

You should have at least one liter of water in the morning before you eat or drink anything; two liters is preferred.
