THE ART AND SCIENCE OF HEALING

God pledged Himself to keep this human machinery in healthful action if thehuman agent will obey His laws and cooperate with God. MS 3, 1897 CD p.17

If man will first trust in God, rest, exercise, be temperant, dress with modesty and use His simple agents properly, and maintain good hygiene in using His temple,

then God will continue to cooperate with the human agent in providing Hisnatural agents of sunlight, water, clean air, life bearing grass, seeds and herbs, in

the prevention of disease. Gen. 1:11, Ex. 15:26; 1 Cor. 3:9-11; 1MR 345.2-346.3

There are many ways of practicing the healing art, but there is only one way

that Heaven approves. God's remedies are the simple agencies of nature that will not tax or debilitate

the system through their powerful properties. {5T 443.1}

The work of cultivating the heart is profitable at all times and in all places.

1 MR 345.2

WILL YOU PAY ME NOW OR PAY ME LATER?

CHILDREN LIKE ADULTS OFTEN

CHALLENGE THE LAWS OF HEALTH.

BECAUSE THERE ARE CONSECUENCES, WE

NEED TO PAY ATTENTION NOW

AND NOT LATER !!!

WHAT DID THOMAS EDISON SAY ABOUT THE DOCTOR OF THE FUTURE ?

Thomas Edison said, “The doctor of the future will not prescribe medicines,

but rather, he will focus on true remedies for the human frame and in the prevention of diseases.”

5

REMEDY OR PRESCRIPTION ?

Name of the Patient:Address:Date:Age:Allergies:

Directions: Let your food be your medicine, not the other way around.

Signature of the Doctor 6

HOW DOES ONE DEFINE A TRUE REMEDY OR A MEDICAL PRESCRIPTION?

A TRUE REMEDY IS A MEANS THAT EXISTS TO

REMOVE OR ALLEVIATE A DISEASE OR CONDITION.

IT IS A CURE. A MEDICAL PRESCRIPTION

IS AN ORDER OR ARECOMMENDATION FOR TREATMENT, THAT MAY

OR MAY NOT BE CURATIVE.

7

WHAT IS THE BEST AND SAFEST WAY TO EVALUATE THE USE OF

NATURAL REMEDIES ?

THERE ARE NO TWO PERSONS THAT ARE ALIKE. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO REQUEST MEDICAL COUNCIL TO:EVALUATE YOUR HEALTH,IDENTIFICAR IDENTIFY YOUR RISK FACTORS,ESTABLISH GOALS,ANSWER QUESTIONS AND EVALUATE YOUR PROGRESS.

8

As we recognize that nutrition is a true remedy, then applying it properly, provides healing properties.

It is a fact that we are what we eat,but what are we made of ?In order for us to know what we aremade of, we need to learn the basicelements that the human body iscomposed of.Once we know what the basicelements are, and we learn howthese elements can functionoptimally, we can begin tounderstand how to fuel our bodies.Only by knowing the basic elementsthat the body is made of andunderstanding how the body needs tobe fed in order for it to workoptimally, and then obeying the lawsof health, can we obtain wisdom inknowing how to preserve it.

9

WHAT ARE THE ELEMENTS THAT THE HUMAN BODY IS MADE OF?

10

The essential elements needed to sustain human life consist of:

a) Sugars

b) Proteins

c) Fats

d) Vitamins

e) Enzymes and

f) Water

SUGARS IN FOOD

11

DOES A RELATION EXIST BETWEEN LEARNING DIFFICULTIES AND DIET ?

It has been observed that students that eat diets that are:

Rich in refined sugars,

Artificial sugars,Artificial coloring, Caffeine and are poor in proteins,

Are associated with learning difficulties.

12

WHY IS IT THAT SUGARS GO UP AND DOWN WITH SOME DIETS?

REFINED SUGARS MAKE BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS RISE

VERY RAPIDLY.THIS RAPID RISE IN BLOOD

SUGAR CAUSES OVER-STIMULATION OF INSULIN.

OVER-STIMULATION OF INSULIN CAUSES A RAPID DROP IN BLOOD SUGAR

LEVELS BELOW THEIR OPTIMAL LEVELS.

THIS EFFECT IS AGGRAVATED BY THE USE OF CAFFEINE AND ARTIFICIAL SUGARS.

WHAT COMPOUND IN FOOD WORKS BEST IN SUSTAINING OPTIMAL BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS?

ANSWER: VEGETABLE PROTEINS

15

PROTEINS IN FOOD16

FOR TAKING EXAMS IN SCHOOL, HOW IMPORTANT IS BREAKFAST ?

Breakfast is the most important meal

of the day.

It has been tested and proven that children

that eat a good breakfast get better

grades in school.17

WHAT EFFECTS DO ANIMAL PROTEINS EXERT OVER THE ABSORPTION OF CALCIUM ?

Persons that eat animal products get an excess of

total proteins.Bones normally contain little

protein.Diets with an excess of

proteins limit the absorption of calcium that in turn

promotes the elimination of calcium.

This effect results in osteoporosis and increases

the risk of fractures.

18

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE BENEFITS OF A BREAKFAST HIGH IN VEGETABLE PROTEINS ?

•Greater productivity before the noon time meal

•Greater state of alertness

•Less muscular fatigue

•Greater tolerance

•Less predisposition to having

accidents

•Less oxygen requirements

in doing work.

•Less neuromuscular tremors

•Less irritability

19

FATS IN FOOD

20

Why is it that the Eskimos of Greenland have healthy hearts?

Even though the Eskimos have diets that are high in fats that are derived principally from fish, and they are relatively inactive

physically due to the environmental factors, theyhave a low incidence of heart disease.

This is due to their ingestion of Omega 3 fats their diets.

21

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE DISADVANTATES OF OMEGA 3 FATS FROM FISH AS OPPOSED

TO VEGETABLE ORIGIN?

The disadvantages of Omega 3’s from fish are that much are contaminated with Mercury, PCBs and

Dioxin.

22

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF OMEGA 3 FATS IN OUR DIETS?

Multiple mechanisms have been proposed for the beneficial effects

of Omega 3 fatty acids for both primary and secondary prevention of cardiac disease. These include

reduction in triglyceride levels, inflammation, blood clotting,

irregular heart beating and plaque formation.

This reduces the risk of non fatal heart attack, fatal heart attack,

sudden death and all cause mortality.

The Effects of Omega 3 Fatty Acids on Cardiovascular Disease: US Department of Health and Human Services ERTA#94

23

HOW MUCH OMEGA 3 FATS ARE BENEFICIAL FOR OUR HEALTH?

The ingestion of 1-3 g of omega 3 fats per day

have been associated with a reduction in the incidence of coronary deaths by 36%, and

reduce the total mortality by 17%.

24

SINCE SOY PRODUCTS HAVE PHYTO-ESTROGENS, SHOULD MEN BE

EATING THEM?

Phyto-estrogens reduce the incidence of prostate cancer. Due to their Omega 3 content, soy reduces

the incidence of heart attacks, they lower blood pressure and they reduce the incidence of heart arrythmias. In low to moderate intake have no

effect on feminization, sperm production or motility.

25

What are the differences between white and brown rice?

Brown rice is commonly referred to as hulled rice that is a whole grain, whereas, white rice is milled, whereby removing the hull of the grain that

contain the bran and germ layers.Brown rice containing bran and germ layers is a source of fiber, protein, niacin,

B6, folate, pantothenic acid, and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phospherous, manganese, potassium, zinc and selenium.

The essential oils contained in brown rice have been found to lower LDL cholesterol and reduce the risks of heart disease and stroke.

26

WHAT IS THE ADVANTAGE OF EATING OLIVES OVER BUTTER?

Let the diet reform be progressive. Let the people be taught how to prepare

food without the use of milk or butter.Olives may be so prepared as to be eaten with good results at every

meal. The advantages sought by the use of butter may be obtained by the

eating of properly prepared olives.The oil in the olives relieves

constipation, and for consumptives, and for those who have inflamed,

irritated stomachs, it is better than any drug. As a food it is better than

any oil coming secondhand from animals. EGW CD 349.1-4

27

WHY DOES THE ANTI-COAGULANTCOUMADIN HAVE A AN FDA WARNING ABOUT EATING GREEN VEGETABLES?

The only naturally occurring coumestan in the food chain is the phytochemicalcoumestrol. Coumestrol is found in beans, split peas, clover, spinach, alfalfa sprouts,

brussel sprouts and soybean sprouts. Coumestrol is an isoflavone from which coumadin is derived. The anti-coagulant properties of the seeds of the tonka bean

containing coumadin are so potent that they can be lethal in large doses. Due to this, the FDA had it’s use banned in food in the USA.

Tanka Bean banned

28

IT IS BELIEVED THAT WE EAT TOO MUCH OIL IN OUR DIETS. HOW MANY EARS OF CORN ARE

NEEDED TO MAKE ONE TEASPOON OF CORNOIL?

It takes 16 ears of corn to make 1 teaspoonful of

corn oil.

When we eat corn in its natural state, naturally, we eat

a lot less fat. 29

WHY IS IT THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HIGH CHOLESTEROL?

Principally, it is due to 3 factors:

Eating an animal diet containing cholesterol

Consuming more fat than we burn off.

A lack of sufficient fiber.

30

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A CIS-FAT AND A TRANS-FAT ?

A cis-fats are found naturally.

Trans-fats are modified or damaged by overheating.

Overheating causes modification of the structure

of fats that is harmful by producing inflammation in

the body.

Inflammation in the vascular bed can stimulate

the formation of clots.

32

WHY IS CANCER ASSOCIATED WITH OBESITY?

DIETS HIGH IN FATS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH

COLON CANCER, PROSTATE CANCER AND

BREAST CANCER.

PHYSICAL INACTIVITY, THE LACK OF SUNLIGHT

AND DAMAGED FATS ARE AGGRAVATING FACTORS.

31

WHAT IMPACT HAS MODERN FEEDING OF DAIRY COWS HAD ON OMEGA-3?

Cows grazed on grassland contain milk that is high in Omega 3, but since the 1950’s, modern

day feeding practices consist of corn, soy

and wheat that contain principally

no Omega 3. 33

Before 1950

After1950

IS IT STILL SAFE FOR US TO CONTINUE EATING DAIRY PRODUCTS?

Let the diet reform be progressive. Let the people be taught how to prepare food without the use of milk or butter.

Tell them that the time will come when , because there will be no safety in using eggs, milk, cream, or butter, because the disease

in animals is increasing in proportion to the increase in wickedness among men. CD p.356 EGW

34

MINERALS AND VITAMINS IN FOOD

35

WHEN PEOPLE GET AWAY FROM EATING MEATS, WHAT MINERAL DEFICIENCY IS FREQUENT?

In vegetarians, the mineral that is most

scarce is iron.

Green vegetables are the best and greatest

source of iron.

The absorption of iron is increased by the

ingestion of vitamin c.36

IF I STOP DRINKING COW’S MILK, HOW CAN I REPLACE MY CALCIUM ?

If calcium comes from cow’s milk, and cow’s milk comes

from what the cow eats, then, why not go directly to

the source?Calcium is a trace mineral

that is found in the soil. There is sufficient calcium to meet the human body needs by eating fruits, vegetables and grains that grow out of

the soil.

37

HOW MUCH MORE CALCIUM DO GREEN VEGETABLES HAVE THAN OTHER

VEGETABLES ?

5 TIMES MORE

CALCIUM

38

WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF EATING FOOD OF MANY COLORS ?

NUTRIENTS COME IN DIFFERENT COLORS AND

FLAVORS. THE MORE COLOR YOU

HAVE ON YOUR PLATE, THE MORE VITAMINS AND

ENZYMES ARE PRESENT. THE MORE VITAMINS AND

ENZYMES THAT ARE PRESENT, THE HEALTHIER

IT IS.

39

WHAT TYPE OF VITAMINS AND MINERALS SHOULD I TAKE?

When we eat a variety of fruits, vegetables,

grains and nuts in their natural state, there are sufficient vitamins and

minerals making supplementation not

necessary.

40

ENZYMES IN FOOD41

How many times should we chew a mouthful of food ?

Each mouthful of food should be chewed at least 50 times before passing it

down to our stomach. While we chew, the

glands liberate enzymes that assist in digesting

the food.The more enzymes that

are released, the greater the asimilation of

nutrients.

42

• Live enzymes ignite the fuel we eat.• As we heat up food, this process kills the live

enzymes in our diet.• The body is a vehicle that transports us from

one place to another.• Can dead spark plugs work well in your vehicle?

In what way are digestive enzymes like spark plugs?

43

IF ENZYMES AND VITAMINS DIE WHEN WE HEAT UP FOOD, WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE FOOD WE

EAT SHOULD BE RAW ?

As food looses it’s naturalcolor by heating, this is an indication that it has lost some of it’s nutritive and

curative properties. The greater the disease state, the more critical it is that we eat food that maintains it’s curative

properties.

44

WHAT OTHER ASPECTS ARE IMPORTANT IN OUR DIET FOR THE PREVENTION OF DISEASES ?

45

IS IT GOOD FOR ME TO EAT THE SAME FOOD DAY AFTER DAY OR IS A VARIETY BETTER?

“There should not be many kinds at any one meal, but all meals should not be composed of the same kinds of food without variation. Food should be prepared with simplicity, yet with a nicety which will invite the appetite.” EGW 1896

“It would be much better to eat only 2 or 3 different kinds of food at a meal than to load the stomach with many varieties.” EGW 1897

46

WHAT FOODS OR CIRCUMSTANCES CAUSE THE AIRWAY TO REACT ?

The throat is shared by the respiratory and the digestive

tracts.White flour, refined sugars, milk, cheese, ice cream, pasta, pizza,

white rice and salt cause inflammation in the throat.

Constipation, being overweight, and the lack of exercise cause

further congestion.These foods or circumstances

cause the airway to react makingit hard to breathe that triggers

coughing, more throat irritation, bronchial spasms and wheezing.

47

HOW MANY TIMES SHOULD WE GO TO THE BATHROOM PER DAY ?

The foods we eat have an impact over the volume and

size of the stools we have per day.

If we eat 3 times per day, on an average, we should have

3 movements per day. If we do not have the same

number of movements as the times we eat, then as a

general rule, we are either lacking in water, fiber or

physical activity.

48

IF I AM HUNGRY FOR SOMETHING WITH THE FLAVOR OF AN APPLE, WHAT SHOULD I EAT?

1 APPLE = 50 CAL

APPLE JUICE = 150 CAL

APPLE PIE = 400 CAL

APPLE PIE A

LA MODE = 550 CAL

NOW WE CAN SEE THE IMPORTANCE OF FIBER IN LOOSING WEIGHT.

49

WHY IS IT THAT PEOPLE DEVELOP APPENDICITIS ?

Appendicitis is a disease produced by

constipation.

Appendicitis is preventable with the

use of fiber.

50

DOES FIBER HELP IN REDUCING THE RISK OF CANCER ?

It has been shown that fiber can reduce the

risk of developing cancer of the breast, ovary,

uterus, prostate and colon..

51

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE BENEFITS OF FIBER IN CARDIAC PATIENTS?

Fiber lowers cholesterol, Reduces triglycerides, Reduces blood pressure, Stabilizes blood sugar levels,

and helps us to loose weight.

52

AFTER WHAT TIME OF DAY SHOULD ONE STOP EATING?

IT HAS BEEN PROVEN THAT WHEN WE EAT AFTER 6 PM,

ALMOST 100% OF WHAT WE EAT

TURNS INTO FAT.

53

WHAT EFFECT DOES FIBER HAVE ON BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS ?

FIBER PROLONGS THE TIME IT TAKES FOR THE SUGAR TO

PASS FROM THE STOMACH.

THIS DELAY HELPS IN SUSTAINING BLOOD

SUGAR LEVELS.

54

WHAT TYPE OF FIBER REDUCES THE RISK OF DEVELOPING DIABETES TYPE II ?

DARK BREAD, BROWN RICE,

WHOLE GRAIN CEREALS AND ROLLED OATS

55

IN WHAT WAY DOES FIBER HELP US TO LOOSE WEIGHT ?

SINCE FIBER GIVES US A SENSATION OF

FULLNESS

AND AT THE SAME TIME BLOOD SUGARS

ARE MAINTAINED,

WE TEND TO EAT LESS.

56

What are some of the health effects of continued pasta ingestion?

Pasta in plain English means paste. Paste is glue that sticks to the walls of the intestines from

the throat to the rectum. Pasta promotes constipation, resulting in fermentation that

produces gas, bloating and inflammation in the bowel.

Chronic inflammation impedes the absorption of nutrients in the

body.Given enough time, a reduction in

the absorption of nutrients can result in degeneration of cells,

tissues, organs and systems of the body.

The MSG in the soup packages causes salt retention.

57

IN WHAT WAY IS IT BENEFICIAL FOR US TO BRUSH OUR TEETH AFTER EATING ?

IT HAS BEEN SHOWN THAT WHILE WE

RETAIN THE FLAVOR OF FOOD IN OUR MOUTHS AFTER

EATING, THIS TEMPTS US

WANT TO EAT MORE FOOD.

58

WATER WITH FOOD

59

THE DIGESTIVE TRACT PRODUCES BETWEEN 2-3 GALLONSOF DIGESTIVE JUICES PER DAY.

WHEN WE DILUTE THE DIGESTIVE JUICES WITH WATER IN OUR FOOD,

THIS INTERFERES WITH THE DIGESTIVE PROCESS BY DELAYING THE ARRIVAL OF CONCENTRATED

ENZYMES AND REDUCES THE ASSIMILATION OF NUTRIENTS.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT THAT WE DRINK WATER 15 MINUTES BEFORE OR

ONE HOUR AFTER EATING? 60

WHAT EFFECT DOES EATING NON FAT MILK HAVE ON CHOLESTEROL?

Most people think that it is the fat in cows milk raises cholesterol

levels. This is a partial truth. The problem is that cows milk has caseine. Caseine is a protein that raises cholesterol. Caseine is not

found in vegetable protein. Despite removing the fat out of cows milk, the caseine persists.

Due to the properties of caseine, there is a raise cholesterol levels.

61

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE DRINK VERY COLD WATER ?

VERY COLD WATER HAS A PARALIZING EFFECT ON THE

INTESTINES. THIS PARALIZING EFFECT

CONTINUES UNTIL THE WATER TEMPERATURE INCREASES TO THAT

OF THE SURROUNDING TISSUES.VERY COLD WATER CONSTRICTS THE BLOOD FLOW, THE FLOW OF

THE DIGESTIVE JUICES AND PRODUCES INDIGESTION, COLIC AND LOWERS OUR DEFENSES.

59

Substances called Cafestol and Kahweol, that are found in unfiltered coffee mayincrease cholesterol (LDL) in the blood,

whereby raising the risk of heart disease.

Baylor College of Medicine 2007

WHAT EFFECT DOES COFFEEHAVE ON CHOLESTEROL?

62

WHAT EFFECT DOES COFFEE HAVE ON INFLAMMATION?

In healthy people, coffee has an effect that dramatically increases the inflammation (CRP) in the blood. Inflammation is what precedes the reduction of blood flow through blood vessels prior to a heart attack.

Am J Clin Nutr 2004; 80:862-763

Isn’t coffee good for me?

Negative effects of caffeine:

Ulcer disease, Irritable colon (Colitis)

Stimulates adrenalin, raises blood press

Increases Cortisone, produces insomnia

Anxiety, irritability, causes dependence

Deregulates temperature, leads to fluid loss, dehydration, heat exhaustion

Iron deficiency anemia

Raises cholesterol (LDL) – Cafestol

Urinary Tract infections

Increases inflammation (CRP)

Osteoporosis64

IS MEAT EATING ESSENTIAL FOR HEALTH & STRENGTH?

“Meat is not essential for health or strength, else the Lord made a mistake when He provided food for Adam and Eve

before their fall. All the elements of nutrition are contained in the fruits, vegetables, and grains.” CD 395.2 EGW

65

WHAT SHOULD BE THE INTERVAL BETWEEN

MEALS?

Five hours at least should elapse between each

meal, and always bear in mind that if you would

give it a trial, you would find that two meals are

better than three. CD p.173.1 EGW

66

WHAT TYPES OF FOOD ARE DIGESTED BEST WHEN NOT

EATEN TOGETHER?

IN ORDER FOR THERE TO BE THE BEST ASSIMILATION OF

FOOD,IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

NOT BE COMBINED. COUNCILS ON DIET AND

FOODS p.112 EGW

67

UNDER WHAT CONDITIONS IS A FRUIT DIET BENEFICIAL?

“Intemperate eating is often the cause of sickness, and what nature most needs is to be relieved of the undue burden that has

been placed upon her. In many cases of sickness, the very best remedy is for the patient to fast for a meal or two, that the

overworked organs of digestion may have an opportunity to rest. A fruit diet for a few days has often brought great relief to brain

workers. Many times a short period of entire abstinence from food, followed by simple, moderate eating, has led to recovery

through nature's own recuperative effort. {CD 310.4}

68

IN WHAT WAY CAN WE HELP OUR ENVIRONMENT ?

As we consume food from the vegetable

kingdom we conserve:

The air we breathe,

The earth,

The rivers,

The water we drink,

The ocean, the local climate and

environment.

69

WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT THAT WE TAKE CARE OF THESE BODIES ?

The chemicals making images in the mind provide the actions of the mind that control the body.

When we invite the Lord of Lords to dwell in this temple, we need to be careful with what we put

into our bodies. Our thoughts come from

chemical reactions. These chemicals come from the foods

we eat.It is due to this that the mind is considered a most holy place. In addition, this temple is not

ours, but rather it belongs to the Lord.

70

SHOULD WE MARVEL IN KNOWING HOW WE ARE MADE ?

OUR TEMPLES ARE FORMIDABLY MADE WITH MUCH PRECISION.

WE ARE VESSELS OF CLAY INTERTWINED FROM THE DEPTHS

OF THE EARTH, MARVELOUSLY MADE FROM THE EMBRION BY THE

HANDS OF GOD. THIS DESIGN WAS PRE-

PROGRAMMED AND IS BY DESIGN MADE TO LIVE FOR AN ETERNITY.

WE SHOULD ALLOW THE POTTER TO HAVE HIS WAY IN OUR LIVES AND

MOLD US IN SUCH A WAY THAT WE CONFORM TO HIS PURPOSES.

71

John 6:32-35 “Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is he which cometh

down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that

believeth on me shall never thirst.”

What can we learn from the Bible about

the healing power within our reach in

partaking of the bread of life?

72
