Some Interesting Food For Thought

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

This morning I got an email from my friend Dr. Dharma,
who can be found at: drdhrma.com. Dr Dharma is one
of the leading experts in the world on the human brain,
and on Alzheimers.

The following is quoted directly from his email:

"I am really sorry to report this recent finding on
eating certain types of meat, but I think you ought
to know about the danger.

A recent report reveals that eating just one sausage
per day can significantly increase your risk of bowel
cancer, a very bad form of the disease, according to
an analysis by the World Cancer Research Fund.

Eating 1.8 ounces of processed meat daily...about
one sausage or three strips of bacon...raises the
likelihood significantly.

Processed meats may also trigger cancer of the lung,
stomach, pancreas, and prostate.

Processed meats include bacon, ham, pastrami,
salami, and especially hot dogs. Sausages and
hamburgerscan also fall in this category if they are
preserved or have chemicals added.

WCRF recommends that people avoid eating all
processed meat, although they say that at least
eating less is a good start. If we do this many
cases of bowel cancer will be prevented.

that also means watch the pepperoni on the pizza
because it's a processed meat also.

All of these processed meats do the following:

1) Increase your risk of colon cancer by 50%.
2) Increase your risk of diabetes by 50%
3) Lower your lung function and cause lung disease.
4) Increase your risk of bladder cancer by 59%.
5) Increase your risk of stomach cancer by 38%.

What to do.

Choose organic meats that are grass fed or free range."

(I am adding the following: Make sure the animals were
not fed antibiotics or BGH.) (Bovine Growth Hormone)

"Look for uncured varities that contain no nitrates.

Choose varities that say 100% beef or chicken. This is
the only way to know that the meat bis from a single
species and does not include byproducts such as like
skin or fat.

Avoid any meat that contains MSG, high fructose corn
syrup, preservatives, or artificial flavor.

If possible, purchase from a small local producer can
verify who can verify ingredients and procedures."

This is good information to know, and next time you
pass the baloney in the supermarket you might want
to keep on going.

I'm going to miss eating those fried baloney and onion
sandwiches, but I'll get over it.

P.S. Leo Burnett once said, "A good basic selling
idea, involvement and relevancy, of course, are as
important as ever, but in the advertising din of today,
unless you make yourself noticed and believed, you
ain't got nothin'."

Themz is words to remember.
