my newest blog

I very recently chose to embrace the nutritarian-vegan lifestyle. This means no meat, no dairy, and rare encounters with refined and processed foods, vegan or not. Once I discovered how unhealthy and unsafe animal products are for you, it was an easy decision. Organic meat and dairy are no better as animal protein and fat is animal protein and fat. Our bodies were originally design for a plant-based diet* and this is how we can reverse and avoid disease. My family is joining me too. I'm so proud of them!

I've begun my blog with a vegan pumpkin pie (recipe link included), which has sugar, but with the holidays coming up, a girl's gotta account for special occasion recipes!

*Consider that the hydrochloric acid in the human stomach is only 1/20th the strength of that found in carnivores. Carnivores require the stronger acid to process the flesh they consume. Human hydrochloric acid is designed for plant food, which means it can’t fully process flesh. Furthermore, our intestines are 12 times the length of our body, whereas carnivores have intestines three times the length of their body. This is important because once a carnivore digests its prey, the remains needs to be quickly flushed through to prevent putrification (rotting). On the other hand, when humans eat meat, the combination of weak stomach acid and long intestines means putrification occurs throughout the digestive system, which can, and often does, lead to disease. Plant food, however, requires the longer journey to properly break down the fats, proteins, complex carbohydrates and nutrients. (original article here)

Interviews with people who have beaten the disease demonstrate how cancer can be successfully healed with dietary treatments and natural supplementation. Participants in the film include: T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D., The China Study;Brian Clement, Ph.D., Hippocrates Health Institute; Brenda Cobb, The Living Foods Institute; Mirea Ellis, The Kushi Institute; Charlotte Gerson, The Gerson Institute and many more.

the generation of those who seek Him

Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD?
Or who may stand in His holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol,
Nor sworn deceitfully.
He shall receive blessing from the LORD,
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him,
Who seek Your face.

~ Psalm 24:3-6

wow

Found this verse today in my new copy of the Amplified Bible*, and it really struck me:

Or do you suppose that the Scripture is speaking to no purpose that says, The Spirit Whom He has caused to dwell in us yearns over us and He yearns for the Spirit [to be welcome] with a jealous love? (James 4:5, Amplified Bible)

I'm still learning to grasp the concept that the Holy Spirit has deeply profound emotions. Meditating on that will be life-changing.

*the guy at the Canadian Bible Society asked me if I had had an Amplified Bible before and I told him no, but that I'd heard many people refer to it a lot lately. He told me I was in for a treat. He wasn't kidding! I got a $15 paperback version on sale and I can see I'll have it falling apart in no time. The next one will be in leather for sure.
