HOW CARCINOGENS WEAKEN THE BODY


...body must be nourished through what has had life 


A carcinogen is a substance, organism, or exposure that can cause cancer or distort the cells (the unit of life) and cause myriads of health problems such as liver or kidney problems.
 Carcinogens can be found in the environment or created by humans. 
Examples of carcinogens 
1. Synthetic chemicals such as solvents and other chemicals used in industry some of which are used in the manufacture of body care products such as creams, lotions, lipsticks, hair care products like relaxers etc. They are also used in production of some pesticides and herbicides., also in preserving food but can be harmful to consumers. 

2. Naturally occurring substances such as ultraviolet rays in sunlight, combustion products, and mycotoxin

3. Ionising and non-ionising radiation 

4. Cigarettes and other tobacco products
5.Alcohol – drinks   containing alcohol
6. Biological agents such as viruses and bacteria – I have cause to think that no creature of God was originally created to be poisonous. So the viruses and bacteria that are carcinogenic must have  imbibed toxins - carcinogens from the environment and subsequently transmitted them to their offspring through their genes  from generation to generation such that those specie of viruses and bacteria became toxic to other living things like humans, animals and plants. 

WHY CARCINOGENS DESTROY THE BODY

The bodies of humans, animals and plants are living things.
The life in the human body is meant to be nourished through something that has had life.

I heard a quote: if nature didn’t make it, dont take it. I responded that the quote is more appropriate this way, ‘if nature didn’t grow it, don’t take it’
Why? 
According to what God said in the bible in Genesis 9.3 – ‘Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you all things, even as the green herbs.’
Gen.9.4 – ‘But you (humans) shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.’ 
This was the commandment or instruction of God to Noah and his family after the flood that wiped out all other humans on earth. 
So, that which is to be eaten by humans must be from something that had been grown naturally – that has had life. It can be processed but it shouldn’t be processed or preserved with non-living things.   

So substances like nitrites and nitrates, which manufacturers use to preserve processed meats. butylated hydroxyanisole, a preservative that is a possible human carcinogen shouldn’t be used. What can be used? – there are natural preservatives that come from what once had life such as turmeric and ginger if grown without carcinogenic substances like chemical fertilisers, pesticides and herbicides. 

Anything taken into the body that never had life would disrupt the functioning of the body.  If in excess amount or accumulated, can even kill. 

But most times they are slow poisons- just gradually weaken the body physically and/or the body’s immunity – i.e. ability to fight off diseases . 

It will weaken the body’s ability to overpower harmful viruses, bacteria or fungi that enter the body such that a whole globe consisting  of billions of intelligent human beings can be locked down due to infection by a strain or specie of virus.

So what is the essence of this article? Due to ignorance, hopefully not wickedness, there has been an increase of toxins – carcinogens  not only in processed foods but in fresh foodstuffs, even animals  reared for human consumption are given growth boosters which often contain carcinogens. 

Sooner or later,  it will fully dawn on people that most of the pains they and their loved ones suffered from diseases came through food, drinks, some drugs, body care products, supposedly air-freshening  sprays etc

 There would be need for overhaul of food production systems- let no food producer or manufacturer claim there are no healthier alternatives – the clue to produce what is healthy for human consumption is this: did it once had life? If yes, has that which never had life been mixed with it or incorporated into it – the answer to the second must be  no for it to be truly healthy for human consumption.

If all that are used in nourishing the body have always had life, no matter the age,  such body will function as optimally as it should, not with diseases or constant pains until the person is satisfied with life, barring some other circumstances which can be avoided

MUST SUGAR BE WHITENED?..that's main cause of health dangers posed by refined sugar

Do you know that refined white sugar sold for human consumption and also added to many processed/packaged foods and drinks by manufacturers  contains traces of chemicals used in its production?

These chemicals include  phosphoric acid, sodium hypochlorite,  sulphur dioxide, lime.

While sulphur dioxide and lime are safe for human consumption, traces of phosphoric acid and sodium hypochlorite in refined white sugar pose severe health dangers. 

Before the highlights below on what researches publish about these substances, we already know that consumption of  refined white sugar usually cause us some body discomforts which sometimes   degenerate into one sort of sickness or another.

You may say don’t buy and consume white sugar then. 

But are brown sugars produced directly from cane juice readily available in the market? 

Secondly, are the  manufacturers  of most of our regularly consumed processed foods and drinks not adding white sugar? Why can’t they buy and use  brown sugar produced directly from cane juice – must they use white sugar in malt  drinks, cocoa beverages. minerals or soda drinks, bread, biscuits, cereals, cornflakes chocolates, cakes, candies, ice creams etc? 

Even if you don’t take refined white sugar directly,  do you know how much of it is added to the foods and drinks adults and children take regularly? 

Have you not heard of children, even those under the age of 10 years having cancers,  tumours, childhood HBP, Diabetes, Kidney problems? Are these diseases introduced from the sky into human bodies?  Even if inherited, the conditions are worsened primarily by what people eat and drink. 

Is it okay for the immunity of the human population to be so  compromised such that one virus can threaten human health and lock down the globe for weeks? 

This is not saying refined sugar  is the only cause of chronic diseases in the human population but it is major.

From time to time, other causal factors through food and drinks and other things ingested, inhaled or used on the body will be examined. 

CHEMICALS USED IN SUGAR REFINING 

As said earlier, these substances are in  trace or very small amounts in the refined white sugar  but consumed over time, they have similar effects to those highlighted

Phosphoric acid  can cause  pain in the body, cause bronchial discomfort, metabolism problems, it can eventually lead to decreased bone density, kidney problems etc

Phosphoric acid  is usually added in processed foods and soft drinks as it gives flavour and  freshness while gradually killing, I mean weakening the body. 

SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE

It can cause gastrointestinal irritation or even internal wound,  abdominal pain, diarrhoea, chest tightening, inflammation etc   

Sodium hypochlorite which is used in bleach is being consumed by humans through refined sugar. 

 

SULPHUR DIOXIDE is said to be safe for human consumption except for those who are allergic to it like people with asthma. It may also cause breathing difficulties, headaches or nausea in some people. 

Countries direly need to enact  more protective laws on food production to safeguard the health of their population.

Substances in food that have adverse effects on consumers don’t usually kill immediately, may not even actually kill but gradually weaken the health of the population, overwhelm the health system, making people suffer unnecessarily.

DIFFERENTIATING BETWEEN WHITE TURMERIC AND GINGER

GINGER is on the left in black nylon, WHITE TURMERIC on the right 

...their nutritional and health benefits 

This morning I harvested a plant in my mini-garden and initially thought it was ginger. Apart from being very expensive,  organically-grown ginger is very scarce - you hardly get such in the market.. 

Since I dont apply chemicals in growing my garden crops, I was excited. But my initial excitement about that was short-lived  - lo and behold the crop I have harvested looking exactly like ginger is not ginger - it is white turmeric.  . 
I use ginger not just to spice food and drinks  but mostly as one of the ingredients   in making my body lotion, bathing soap and other skin care products.  So the white colour of a spice is particularly preferred.

I try to buy organic grown ginger but I hardly get in the narket. But the commonly  known turmeric which is orange coloured is more readily available and sold by organic growers.

When I plant ginger and turmeric in my mini-garden , the turmeric  easily sprout and grow to maturity but the ginger plant would either not sprout or if it does would die at seedling stage. 

I suspect that while sourcing for organic ginger, a seller must have sold white turmeric to me and I just  planted in my garden without checking to confirm it was actually   ginger.

KNOWING THE DIFFERENCE 
To differentiate ginger from turmeric- note that the plants are similar but the ginger leaves are not as wide as the turmeric leaves. The ginger leaves also tend to grow more vertically than turmeric leaves. 

But the.most sure- proof is the harvested crops  -no matter how much the harvested white turmeric looks like ginger,  just sniff  - ginger scent is more spicy-  a pungent or sharp scent - while the white turmeric scent is same as the orange-coloured turmeric.

White turmeric can be used in substituting ginger in cooking or spicing food and in making cosmetics. But if it's not ginger, it's not same as ginger. Use about half the quantity of turmeric you would have used if it's ginger 

According to Health line, ginger and turmeric can have powerful effects on nausea, pain, inflammation, and immune function in the body.


They are both Antioxidant-Rich,  excellent sources of protective compounds, according to Eating Well online. The antioxidants found in ginger may help prevent heart disease and cancer, especially when paired with garlic. 

Turmeric is  said to be even more anti-oxidant rich. If we include these spices regularly in food, they would help prevent terminal diseases like cancer,  heart diseases etc.

But know what? When they are grown or preserved with chemicals, these reduce the potency of the spices and can even introduce carcinogenic  i.e. cancer -causing substances into the body weakening human  and animal health. So, do try to grow  these crops organically.
