Nutrition
Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine said “Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food.”
Nothing that we voluntarily do to our bodies affects human beings as powerfully as our dietary intake. The average lifespan is 75 years. If we eat 3-4 times a day the result is approximately 90,000 dietary doses that enter our body. Each of us has a fundamental nutritional choice to make: Ingest whole, organic foods in their natural form, or ingest processed “techno” foods in which the nutritive substances have been stripped away in a factory and the remaining food product has been loaded with artificial dyes, artificial chemicals, fat and sugar.
Most medical problems including Cancer, Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, Coronary Artery Disease, Arthritis, and Allergies are directly caused by your food choices and are therefore Preventable.
Please discontinue all milk and dairy products. We are the only species to consume the suckling milk of another species. Dairy products are high in calories so the calf can grow and high in fat utilized by the developing calf brain and nervous system. We are not calves!
When cheese is made, milk is separated into curds and whey (curdling), this process requires the addition of rennet. Rennet contains the enzyme chymosin. Rennet is obtained from the abomasum (fourth stomach) of newly-born calves where the chymosin aids digestion and absorption of milk. Adult cows do not have this enzyme. Chymosin is extracted from slaughtered calves by washing and drying the stomach lining, which is then cut into small pieces and macerated in a solution of boric acid/brine for 4-5 days. YUM :-(
The global giants Nestle, Cargill, Unilever, Kraft, Conagra, Pepsico and Coca Cola, best described as the "Food Cartel", utilize huge advertising budgets and unethically display celebrities and superheros on product packages. This is a multi-billion dollar industry!! The Food Cartel brain washes Americans and has this country addicted to fat and sugar while poisoning us with chemicals.
Artificial Sweeteners are poisons in pink, yellow and blue packets:
Nutrasweet (Aspartame) contains 10% methanol (wood alcohol) which is metabolized in the body to formaldehyde (embalming fluid) and formic acid (fire ant venom)? Phenylalanine and aspartic acid, the other 2 components of aspartame, are amino acids that quickly enter the brain & central nervous system at abnormally high levels, over stimulating brain cells to death. This toxic, chemical soup which Americans consume in mass quantity causes the following neurological and psychological problems: Seizures, Convulsions, Dizziness, Tremors, Migraines and Severe Headaches, Memory Loss, Slurring of Speech, Confusion, Numbness or Tingling of Extremities, Chronic Fatigue, Depression, Insomnia, Irritability, Panic Attacks, Marked Personality Changes, Phobias
"The FDA denied aspartame approval for more than 8 years until the newly appointed FDA commissioner Arthur Hull Hayes overruled the final scientific review panel, approved aspartame, and then went to work for G.D. Searle (the initial owner of aspartame)"
Splenda (Sucralose) is a trigger for migraine headaches, causes rashes, flushing, panic-like agitation, dizziness, numbness, diarrhea, swelling, muscle aches, headaches, intestinal cramping, urinary/bladder symptoms, and stomach pain.

HealthSmartMD strongly recommends the following:
1. Eat organic, whole foods. Be prepared for dramatic increased food costs. These foods can be obtained at Whole Foods, 4th Generation Market, Nutrition Cottage and Publix GreenWise.
2. Eliminate red meat, dairy, sugar and simple carbohydrates (white bread, white flour, white rice, white potatoes).
3. Increase soluble and insoluble fiber intake to 25+ grams per day.
4. Increase soy intake.
5. Learn how to eat out. You are the boss! Tell them exactly what you want and how you want it prepared.
6. Drink alot of spring water. No Aquafina or Dasani; these are tap water.
7. Take Food Supplements. We don't get all the nutrients we need from our food. Our soil is anemic. The majority of our foods are processed, stripping them of vital nutrients. Our practice (and Dr. Silver) has been using Nature's Sunshine products for many years. Please see: www.mynsp.com/healthsmartmd.
8. Take the emotion out of eating. Food is the fuel necessary to keep your body functioning optimally. Only use high octane fuel; you only get one body!
9. Acknowlege that sugar and fat addictions are real. You may need medical help overcoming these addictions.
