[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Nuts, seeds and whole grains can be prepared in such a way that our body can utilize the nutrients."

Yes exactly. Do most people prepare them properly? I never used to - and now I do. And that is what this thread is about.

"It is in the 40s, 50s, and 60s that most people develop health issues of any kind and any cause, because that is middle age."  [b]You think this stuff just happens-- out of nowhere -- for no reason?[/b] Most Americans think that. Doctors make a lot of $$$ on the people who are not willing to accept responsibility for their own health, do their own research, and make changes to their diets instead of taking a lot of pills.

Google "iodine deficiency" -- go on, I dare you. While you are at it, search "magnesium deficiency" and any other trace nutrient you might think of.

Yes, we must consume the whole animal, including the organs. I never used to do that -- I used to buy boneless, skinless chicken breast and tofu. Because i believed it was healthy. and then i learned otherwise. And then I changed my diet. And that's what this thread is about, right?

Yes, it's called AGING!  you do realize that all humans die?  All animals age.  Their bodies change, break down, slowly, and eventually something fails to the point of death.  No matter what fad diet you eat, eventually your body breaks down and eventually you die.  The medical community makes the MOST money from the last 6 months of a person's life, because people get every treatment possible thinking they can prolong life indefinitely.

Most chronic diseases have a strong genetic component.  Google it, I dare you!  Even cancer has a genetic component -- some people are predisposed and more likely to have certain problems.

I don't have to google iodine deficiencies.  I've actually talked to medical professionals.  So read as many trendy internet scare articles as you want.   My doctor indicated to me that his experience has been that most people THINK they have a thyroid problem but don't.  and blood work confirms it.  But a lot of people like to think they have a thyroid problem in order to explain things like obesity.  When the problem is much simpler:  eating too much (of anything) and a lack of exercise.

In my opinion, the fad diets, the latest scares (don't eat gluten!  don't eat wheat!  sugar is evil!)  are really scapegoats for the real problem:  Americans eat too much and don't move around enough.  It's as simple as that.  And they think, well, if I eat "healthy" food, then that solves the problem or if I eat just "lean meat," then I'll be skinny.  And what happens?  They eat too much of the healthy food or too much meat and they still don't exercise enough.  Even too much of a good thing is not good for you.
