My Letter in TODAY Newspaper About Charlotte Ashton and "Misery City" Singapore: Allow women to consume snacks in MRT stations to alleviate morning sickness

Allow women to consume snacks in MRT stations to alleviate morning sickness
http://www.todayonline.com/voices/allow-women-consume-snacks-mrt-stations-alleviate-morning-sickness

The vast number of letters that came before me in the local newspapers were very focused on arguing away the problem faced by Charlotte Ashton(no matter how rare it is), rather than trying to find ways to prevent a similar case from happening again. 

Not even a single letter among the countless letters before mine in the whole of the last 2 weeks mentioned the ways to alleviate morning sickness, even though many of the writers were women and husbands who had children before.

This only reflects that many Singaporeans are not as compassionate and helpful as they would like others to think they are, which further reinforces Charlotte's points in her article that Singapore is a misery city. 

So in the end, is her article on Singapore being miserable too far-fetched or more accurate than what many of us would like to think of it? 

I wrote about how Singaporeans can be too subservient(lack leadership and initiative) due to their Asian upbringing, and lack the critical thinking skills to think on their own to adapt to uncommon situations(Courage) to therefore be more socially-responsive. The many letters before me have reflected such deficiencies.

New Study Finds Saturated Fat Not Linked to Heart Disease

An article I just read stated that a new study found saturated fat is not linked to heart disease contrary to previous assumptions. I wrote a blog post on this issue a couple weeks ago.

Update: I did a search and found that TODAY newspaper has already published a similar report in Oct last year — Saturated fat, heart disease link a ‘myth’ and someone wrote in to Voices to comment on the report — Educate us with the right nutritional knowledge 

However, sites such as the health Promotion Board and Singapore Heart Foundation are still not updated on this fact — Saturated fat: low, lower, lowest!


Here is what I wrote  weeks ago:

Cholesterol Level and Saturated Fats are Not the Real Factors of Heart Disease — Glycation is One of The Main Factors

http://thethinktankguideforsmarterliving.blogspot.sg/2014/03/cholesterol-level-and-saturated-fats.html

The theory held by many people including doctors that LDL cholesterol and saturated fat can cause heart disease is still a theory not yet proven to be true.

Plaque is known to constrict blood vessels that lead to heart disease. However, the smooth endothelium(one-cell thick lining of blood vessels) has to first be damaged in order for plaque to accumulate.

The low-density lipoprotein aka LDL(that carries cholesterol and lipids/fats) has to first enter damaged areas of the smooth endothelium(one-cell thick lining of blood vessels) in order to create plaque.

Cholesterol is found inside the lipoproteins and cholesterol cannot simply attach to the smooth endothelium nor damage it, it is a mistaken false theory that many doctors and writers of health sites still follow. LDL is also not 'bad' and its particle size doesn't affect heart disease.

Cholesterol cannot simply attach to the smooth endothelium, and therefore is not a cause of heart disease.

"Exactly how atherosclerosis begins or what causes it isn't known, but some theories have been proposed."

"No one knows the exact cause of atherosclerosis"

We have got cholesterol completely wrong
http://www.zoeharcombe.com/the-knowledge/we-have-got-cholesterol-completely-wrong/


Personal opinion:

Blood cholesterol level and saturated fat are actually not the real factors of heart disease. It is when the smooth endothelium(lining of the blood vessels) get damaged by factors such as glycation(destruction of protein fibers in blood vessels) that the low density lipoproteins aka LDL(that carries fat and cholesterol) get to enter the damaged area. The repeat of such endothelium damage and entering of the LDL eventually forms plaque that can constrict the blood vessels and can lead to heart disease. Other factors can also come from constriction of the blood vessels by things like polyphenols(olive oil). Other proinflammation factors can also weaken the blood vessels over time.

It is not cholesterol or saturated fat that leads to heart disease but the damage to the smooth lining of the blood vessels. Too much blood vessel 'scarring' is harmful. This is why it is important not to consume excessively on foods such as starches and sugar that are very high on the Glycermic Index, which can lead to glycation that can damage the lining of the blood vessels and set off the progression of heart disease.

People who still think that cholesterol level and saturated fat lead to heart disease are still not aware of the bigger picture of heart disease.

I realize that many researchers have not yet made such a conclusion perhaps they are not well-aware of the effects of glycation and other factors on the endothelium. Perhaps in future, this can be confirmed in lab studies.

Back to the 90s British Music Rewind Weekend

Thanks to Charlotte Ashton and BBC Radio, I got reminded of the early 90s British music I listened to in my early teens. I still remember songs from Pet Shop Boys, Boyzone, PJ and Duncan, and later on in my teens, Spice Girls and Westlife.



In case anyone is wondering why Anthony looks so much like David Archuleta, it's because David has Irish roots among others of Danish, Spanish and German.

I was so hip even in my childhood, I listened to the radio before going to primary school in the morning, I could easily memorize the lyrics and tunes and often play finish-the-lyrics game.

Charlotte Ashton and Singapore the Misery City — The Lack of Social-Responsiveness and Courage to Those in Need

(The following is a letter I sent to TODAY newspaper in regards to Charlotte Ashton's BBC article on Singapore. Either it did not get published because the editor rejected it or they did not receive it. I remember there was no confirmation message sent back to me after I sent the email)

The Lack of Social-Responsiveness and Courage to Those in Need

I refer to the March 17th article, "BBC article a good reminder to be more gracious, says PM Lee".

I agree with the Prime Minister that Singaporeans can still do much better in terms of being considerate in public.

Charlotte Ashton was using her own personal experience to make sense of Singapore's ranking on the global survey that found it to be the least positive country in the world. Many people did not realize this and assumed she was using her single experience to judge the whole of Singapore.

Even though Charlotte Ashton's article from the BBC is not a big survey of Singapore's level of graciousness, her experience on a public train that eventually led to her feeling unhappy is a cause for consideration for all locals.

I think that the ability to practice graciousness in public is based largely on one's ability to be socially-responsive, empathetic and courageous(ability to adapt well in uncommon situations). These qualities would allow a person to react adequately to those in need.

Although I do feel that many Singaporeans do possess empathy, I feel that the qualities of social-responsiveness and courage are under-developed in most, which has led to them being perceived as indifferent and uncaring in public.

Native Singaporeans are commonly brought up in very strict Asian households that instilled subservience from a young age. This, as well as Singapore's rote-learning education system, do not provide much encouragement for us to think on our own. The added pressure to be intensely competitive in terms of studies and work has made us even less focused in such a crucial skill.

The overall lack of social-responsiveness has many times in the past gotten the general youth in Singapore to be perceived as being politically apathetic.

Professional medical staff in Singapore are well-trained to take charge of demanding medical-related situations so they stand ready to help those in need. I am quite certain if such medical staff were present during Ms Ashton's plight on her train, they would have immediately assisted her without a thought.

Regarding my thoughts on the train passengers who did not assist Ms Ashton, it is difficult to know if they were actually being indifferent and uncaring towards her plight. Their lack of social-responsiveness and lack of courage are also factors needed to be considered.

The qualities of social-responsiveness, empathy and courage are much needed to overcome adversity to create liberation that can make one feel happy. The lack of such qualities could keep one stagnant in misery.

I am going to be very busy working on art

I am going to be very busy until the end of this month working on an art project to create 4 art pieces. I won't let the cat out of the bag on what the project is about but it should reveal itself in the near future. I would only attempt to make art if it is very challenging so the task is going to be very exciting and creative.

My Newly Created Fusion Recipe(Vegan) — Elbow Pasta with Ground Nut Curry Sauce and Nori Flakes

I just created a delicious fusion recipe: an elbow pasta dish with a creamy nut sauce similar to satay gravy, with nori flakes. It tasted so appetizing and moreish, I felt it deserves a mention. You will definitely receive compliments if you serve it to your family, friends and guests.

I created the recipe as part of a healthier alternative to instant ramen noodles, so I tried to use as much simple dried ingredients I could find from my kitchen cabinet.

To make 2 servings, boil 250g of elbow pasta in a pot of boiling water. Add generous amount of salt to the water(as salty as the sea) and a splash of oil. Boil for 9 minutes stirring occasionally until al dente. Pour away most of the pasta water and leave about a 2 cm thickness of pasta water behind with the pasta.

To make the nut sauce, pour 1/3 cup(1/2 for spicier) of curry powder(I use sambar powder from House Brand) and 1 cup of ground nuts(any type of ground nuts, fine or coarse up to you) directly into the pot with the warm pasta. Pour in a liberate amount of oil such as coconut oil(for weight-loss) or other types of oil. Add in 4 tablespoons of flaxseeds for the sauce to be slimy and also if you want some omega 3 fatty acids. Mix everything together until there is a creamy sauce with the warm pasta. Add required sugar/sweetener until the sauce is sweet. I didn't add garlic as I felt the sauce was tasty enough.

Mix in some alfalfa sprouts if you want some fresh greens. Finally, add in some shredded nori flakes. You can choose to mix the nori flakes with the pasta while in the pot, or sprinkle them on top of the pasta before serving. If you are worried about nori containing pollutants, you can choose to use other dark green vegetables and wheat/barley grass powder instead.

Serve and enjoy this delicious Malay-Indian-Japanese fusion pasta. You can eat it with sliced vegan mock fish that comes wrapped with nori, and vegan mock mutton made with mushroom stems(there is a brand that comes frozen without any sauce). You can pair it with a side dish of sliced cucumber to neutralize the spicy aftertaste.

How to Add More Healthy Coconut Milk and Oil Into Your Diet

Coconut milk and oil is not fattening but has been scientifically proven to reduce body fat through thermogenesis. It is also anti-viral, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial. Fat is needed to be consumed with every meal as it acts as carrier for fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K.

For Breakfast:
- Mix coconut milk with fruit juice to create a milky smoothie
- Add coconut milk/cream to your warm tea
- Eat breakfast cereal with coconut milk
- Serve oatmeal porridge with coconut cream on top with fresh pineapple
- Drink coconut milk on its own

For Lunch and Dinner:
- Use coconut milk to cook white rice
- Use thick coconut cream as a creamy sauce for pasta and macaroni(add nutritional yeast flakes for cheese flavor)
- Use coconut cream to make potato salad
- Drizzle coconut oil on fresh vegetable salads
- Use coconut cream to make coleslaw
- Use coconut cream to make mild curry

For Dessert:
- Use coconut cream and coconut oil to make vegan ice-cream(coconut oil turns solid below 25 Deg C)
- Use coconut cream to make thick whipped-cream for ice-cream
- Use coconut milk to make pudding
- Add coconut cream to black rice porridge

For Baking:
- Use coconut cream to make bread
- Use coconut cream to make muffins
- Use dessicated coconut to make cookies

For cooking:
- Use coconut oil as a cooking oil, it can withstand very high temperatures

How Eating Meat Can Indeed Be as Bad as Smoking Cigarettes

I saw many people disagreeing with an article from The Guardian on how eating animal protein can be as bad as smoking cigarettes. I wasn't surprised that the people who disagree with the article are currently eating meat and want to continue eating it.

Their response to the article—
http://www.todayonline.com/voices/report-protein-rich-diet-was-misleading
http://robbwolf.com/2014/03/04/meat-bad-cigarettes/
http://www.zoeharcombe.com/2014/03/animal-protein-as-bad-as-smoking/

The National Health Service in UK(NHS) misread the study and did not realize the article was referring to a meat protein diet—
http://www.nhs.uk/news/2014/03March/Pages/high-protein-diet-may-be-harmful-for-middle-aged.aspx


The following is my response to all of them—

Cooked meat contains heterocyclic amines(HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs).

Chemicals in Meat Cooked at High Temperatures and Cancer Risk
http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Risk/cooked-meats

"-Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are chemicals formed when muscle meat, including beef, pork, fish, and poultry, is cooked using high-temperature methods, such as pan frying or grilling directly over an open flame.

-The formation of HCAs and PAHs is influenced by the type of meat, the cooking time, the cooking temperature, and the cooking method."

There is a strong correlation of Denmark's high grilled red meat consumption with its no.1 ranking for cancer rate in the world.

I wrote something about red meat consumption and its correlation to cancer a while ago.

http://thethinktankguideforsmarterliving.blogspot.sg/2014/02/getting-full-dirt-on-denmark-happiest.html

Grilled red meat shops are popular in Denmark and Denmark has the highest number of meat-cooking grills per capita. This high consumption of red meat correlates with Denmark having the top spot for the rate of cancer for all countries in the world, which seems too high of a direct correlation even if their free medical system allows more people to be detected from the life-threatening disease. The exercise the Danes get from cycling don't seem to be able to offset the effects of the toxins that come from eating cooked meat.

(Even a Danish Professor from the Department of Public Health at a Danish University has advised on the cutting down of red meat)
Barbecue season: cut down on the red meat.

My Letter in TODAY Newspaper, Coconut Milk: Healthy or Hazardous?(Includes Links to Research Studies)

Here is my published letter in TODAY newspaper(in Singapore) about the Health Promotion Board's incorrect view of coconut milk. Coconut milk is able to promote weight loss through thermogenesis, and is anti-fungal and anti-bacteria.

 http://www.todayonline.com/voices/coconut-milk-healthy-or-hazardous

(Even though coconut milk is also described to possess anti-viral properties, I think I didn't mention it because I had in mind of colloidal silver's potent anti-viral properties that I felt was much more significant. There is a local site where colloidal silver has been lab-certified to be able to neutralize various types of viruses very quickly. http://www.colloidalsilver.com.sg/Certifications.php )


These articles at the HPB's website mentioned coconut milk as fattening:

It is stated on the HPB's site that heart attack is the number two killer after cancer in Singapore. In Sri Lanka where coconut oil is consumed as the main dietary fat, the country has the lowest death rate from ischemic heart disease.

Medium chain triglycerides (MCT) in aging and arteriosclerosis.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3519928

"The Demographic Yearbook of the United Nations (1978) reported that Sri Lanka has the lowest death rate from ischemic heart disease. Sri Lanka is the only of the countries giving reliable data where coconut oil (containing over 50% medium chain fatty acids) is the main dietary fat."


Research that found coconut oil to be more easily absorbed compared to other oils composed of long-chain triglycerides—

"Medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA) have attracted attention as part of a healthy diet, because they are absorbed and transported directly into the liver via the portal vein, metabolized rapidly by beta-oxidation, and increase diet-induced thermogenesis."

My Higher Realization of the True Nature of the Higher Dimensions and How to Ascend to Them

I just came to the realization that the extra 2 dimensions in the 5th dimension is not of some physical thing but are 2 extra mental qualities that allows one to be free of the 3rd dimensional qualities of Time, Space and sense of Self.

A dimension does not only have to be related to the physical space but a dimension can also be related to a mental space.


The Current View of the 3 Dimensional Qualities is Not True

The normal perception of the three dimensions that make up the 3rd dimension are that of Length, Breadth and Height.

However, in higher more truthful perspective, since we are perceiving in the Creator's mind state, there are no real physical length, breadth and height dimensions, but only the imaginations of such qualities.

The real qualities of the 3rd Dimension are not Length, Breadth and Height. What we are experiencing now are not physical but are mental projections from the Creator's mind.

Therefore, what is real in this 3rd dimension is the mental projection within the Creator's mind that forms the illusion that we experience. The mental illusion is the only real thing, it makes up the perceivable real '3 dimension qualities'.

Within this illusory experience, we are the characters that hold the illusory perspective of the Self(sense of being a limited/imprisoned character within this illusory holodeck experience program), we hold the illusory perspective of Time(progression of change within the experience) and we hold the illusory Perspective of Space(multiple places within the experience).

So therefore, the 3rd dimension is not actually composed of length, breadth and time. But it is composed of just illusion.


Extra higher Dimensional Qualities Allows One the Extra Freedom to Exist Outside the Physical Dimension Qualities

I have heard of how some people describe the 5th dimension to be free of time and space. So perhaps the 5th dimension is not a place of having extra dimensional qualities being added to length, breadth and time, but the 2 extra qualities are 2 extra mental dimensions that allows one the 2 extra mental detachments from the current 3 dimensional qualities.

The extra 2 qualities that can provide the soul/character in the 5th dimension are the qualities to perceive outside of Time, Space and sense of Self.

Therefore the higher dimension qualities are not physical in nature but are mental dimensions(extra dimensions within mental thought) that allows one to mentally venture into such extra non-physical dimensions when one is existing at the higher 5th dimension.

Such mental dimension would allow one to detach and exist(and navigate perhaps) outside of the physical qualities such as Time and Space.


How to Ascend Out of the Physical Dimension to Less Physical Dimensions

The souls choose to stay in the physical 3rd dimension illusory reality because of their need to experience the physical reality. Until it has completed its experience, it would not be able to possess the expanded consciousness perspective to move away from the physical 3rd dimension reality.

Souls that have karma are hindered by emotions that slows down their perception of the bigger truth reality, the bigger picture.

Emotions are created from the feelings of physical restrictions made up of the qualities of Time, Space and sense of Self.

If the souls can overcome the emotional barriers by overcoming the physical restrictions to perceive the bigger true picture accurately, they would be free from being stuck at a certain stage and not be stuck at experiencing certain physical restrictions repeatedly for a long time.

Souls came to the physical plane to experience physical restrictions that causes emotions, once they have finished experiencing such physical restrictions, they would naturally be free of them and they can move on or ascend to experience higher/other dimensions that do not have such physical restrictions on them.

Why Planet Earth Has So Much Unresolved Karma(Unlearnt Earth School Lessons)

Dolores Cannon said that the unresolved Karma of Earth people is the reason why people keep on making the same mistakes over and over again, leading to the destruction of civilizations over and over again throughout history, due to never-ending greed for power.

There is a reason why people hold on to the same level of frequency/perspective and vibration/clarity that led to the same mistake over and over again. That reason is due to the practice of singling out individuals to blame them. Because people blame too much and get emotional, they are too distracted from perceiving the bigger picture to become more spiritual.


All is Part of the Whole

The physical reality works as a whole. Every part is part of the whole and is not to be blame for anything. For souls/people to only perceive individuals to be blame, they do not have a high enough frequency and vibration to perceive the big picture of reality working as a whole. Their small minds can only perceive individuals to be the ultimate cause of any undesirable experience.


Religions of Blame Created By Small-Minded Souls

Such small-minded people are the primitive barbarians who created religion that has Gods to punish people through karmic retribution that would send souls to hell. We all know which religions are the most retarded ones. These religion continue to promote to massive amount of small-minded people to single out individuals to blame them for anything undesirable. Such people are the constricted small-minded and fearful people who want to quickly blame others and remove the source of the ugliness from their reality as quick as possible.


Angry People Who Like to Blame Would Join Religions That Promote Blaming

The small-minded people believe in these silly religions very easily due to their low frequency and vibration that is reflected in their naivety, stupidity and ignorance. They think that reality works by having a punishing God to punish people who gets in the way of other people's search for happiness. That's it. Such small-minded people think that reality is just so simple. They can rely on their God to blame, hate and punish the ones who gets in their way of searching happiness. They don't have to lift a single finger nor to look angry. They can remain looking falsely gracious to look like a nice person in order to get to heaven. They are not harmonious people but are fake hypocrites.


People Not Thinking Beyond Their Religion

Many egotistic people with exaggerated self importance and exaggerated intelligence think they know about it all about reality so they don't have to think beyond their silly religion. They remain brainwashed and ignorant of how reality really works. They assume that life is about the search for happiness, and it about the fight within good and evil. And if something goes wrong, they can simple blame the person to hell. Their God will take care of the dirt and they can go on living their lives to search for fake happiness.

Many believers would not open their minds up to understand more of reality but they would only follow their religion's practice of hatred and blaming. They think that God will send evil people to hell and good people to heaven. They don't have to think anymore about how reality actually works. This is why many people of the planet Earth are kept at the same level of ignorance leading to their unresolved karma(earth lessons). And they would have to experience the same Earth lessons again. History would repeat itself.


Blaming Closes the Mind and Prevents Understanding of Earth Lessons

Whenever something undesirable happens, they don't think to realize why and how certain things happen the way that they are in order to learn the Earth lesson. They simple close their mind off from thinking and only allocate blame to the persons involved in the undesirable situation.

When the blaming of someone of the blaming of the self is practiced, a person's consciousness is focused on using restriction to punish the person or the self being blamed. When one is doing this, one is feeling too emotionally distracted to feel the emotions of anger/hatred/guilt/regret/depression, and is not able to perceive the bigger reason for why the person/self committed the action that led to the blaming. The person is not able to learn about a particular aspect of the nature of reality. Therefore, as that experience is part of the many life lessons of the Earth school, the person practicing the blame would not understand more about the nature of reality and ascend to a higher experience.


Even Modern Societies Promote Blaming

We know that the societies of Earth likes to practice blaming of people such as criminals. We also know that many religion likes to blame people, especially the stupid religion that promotes karma law, brainwashing stupid simple-minded people into believing that people can be punished by a God for doing certain undesirable things.

A good example is the breakout of war. People like to focus blame on others and get so angry to the point of starting wars that kill innocent people, instead of seeing the bigger picture. Some countries are greedy and want to take resources from other countries. And the other countries retaliate by fighting. This endless greed and violence goes on and on because people seek the gaining of materials for the meaning of life, at the expense of killing the planet with the constricted energies put out from such people.

Because many people got influenced by religion and society to practice blame, this is why many souls on Earth has much unresolved karma that keeps them repeating their same Earth lessons again and again at the same level of experience. Such souls/people will only not get to learn their Earth lessons but would only get to keep their unresolved karma. These souls will not get to progress in the Earth school quickly but would take a long time.


How to Stop Blaming and Start Understanding

Dolores mentioned an example of someone having karma for hating another person for something being done to him/her. And she said that the method to resolve the karma is to get the person to realize if he/she has learnt anything from it, rather than just focusing on blaming the person.

People should understand the bigger reasons for why people commit undesirable things. This will help them learn about the nature of reality and fulfill their Earth lessons.


Why Do Bad/Undesirable Things Happen on Earth?

Why do bad things happen to good people? Why do bad things happen at all?

Kids often ask these questions when they are growing up. The answer is simple. Earth school is a place for souls to learn lessons about the physical nature of reality in ascending levels to increase/expand consciousness/awareness. And bad/undesirable/dysfunctional experiences can reveal much about the characteristics of the nature of reality.

Only broken things can clearly reveal their insides. Things that are intact and unbroken can hide away their inner characteristics.

Through experiencing such bad/undesirable/dysfunctional experiences, souls can get to learn much about the physical nature of reality to expand their awareness/consciousness.

Earth school is a place for souls to expand their consciousness. If only good/desirable things happen all the time, souls would not get the opportunity to learn about the nature of reality to expand their consciousness(frequency and vibration).

A Quick Explanation of What Karma is

I just want to do a quick write out of what Karma is. I think I have written about this before but I want to mention it again.

When a person does not understand something and has gotten emotionally distraught by his/her ignorance of that thing, then there is Karma. The feeling of a restricting/blocking emotion is a reflection that there is ignorance of that thing and therefore the Karma of the person getting stuck to that situation is present.

Because the person's soul did not get to understand that certain thing while it is in human form, the soul will desire to relive that same experience again by wanting to incarnate into a similar situation. The causes the need for incarnating back into the physical Earth plane to try to fully experience that same situation without a repeat of the resisting ignorance and the blocking/restricting emotions. A situation can be fully understood when there is no false preconceived notions that gets in the way of seeing the big picture.


People's Ego Gets in the Way of Seeing the Truth

The reason why people take a long time to evolve in their spiritual development is due to their exaggerated sense of importance that makes them not want to give in to other points of view in perceiving a certain situation. They think they know best, and they think their way of seeing things is the best way. However, if they are wrong, then they will not be able to perceive certain things in in the bigger picture and in full truthfulness, and therefore they cannot understand that thing fully and will remain emotionally distraught and affected by that thing. Since they cannot understand that thing fully, they cannot move on from it and that is why they are stuck in their spiritual evolution.


Escapism

Many spiritual students think that they can ascend simply by avoiding to face and understand certain worldly things. They assume they are too 'good' and too 'pure' to get their hands dirty to associate themselves with certain worldly things. However, because they did not get to experience and understand certain worldly things that they seek to avoid, their soul is not able to advance in its desire to understand the human reality properly. Their souls will therefore desire to return to the Earthly plane to attempt to experience the things that they missed out on.

What is Spirituality — Many People's False Assumptions of Spirituality

Many fake spiritual people think that being spiritual is just about knowing how to practice being good/liberating/harmonious. However, this is not true. Fake spiritual people perceive in their low frequency perspective and are ignorant of the higher truth.

Being spiritual is actually to have a good grasp of duality and know how to practice the ways of good/liberation as well as the ways of bad/evil/restriction/negative.

A being that is very spiritually-advanced has already experienced and understood the dual nature of the low frequency dimension that contains the energies of good/liberation as well as the energies of bad/restriction. A truly spiritually advanced being would therefore be well-versed in creating liberation/good as well as in creating restriction/evil.

Both liberation and restriction are meant to be practiced to fulfill their own necessary required function in the Universe. If something is restricted, a spiritually-advanced being would know how to unblock the restricted energy and liberate it. If something is too liberated or out of control, a spiritually advanced being would also know how to restrict it to bring it under control.

Low frequency people are usually low frequency in their perspective. They assume that everything in the Universe has to be liberating aka 'good'. They perceive that anything that promotes restriction/negative is unwelcomed. For example, if waters that are too liberated are not stopped then it would cause chaos.

So the practice of restriction/bad/evil/negative are also needed to be practiced even by spiritual people.

When low frequency people that are out of control get to experience being lectured/restricted/disciplined, they would perceive any restrictions on them to be unwelcome and associate such restrictions as being non-spiritual, evil and negative. They perceive certain unwanted things/truth/information/reaction to be restrictive and they also name such qualities as 'negative'. But they are right on, their low frequency dumbass shit holes needs to be severely restricted and negated.

This is how the Bible describe the false teachers who think they themselves are righteous/good but instead are superficial shitholes — they assume that Jesus who tried to restrict their false teaching as being an evil and 'negative' person.

Any low-frequency fake spiritual person who experience being restricted would assume such restrictions as being unwelcomed and evil. But they are actually right, the other party is really being evil/restrictive.

But the low frequency fake spiritual people often need to be severely restricted otherwise their stupid, wilfully-ignorant, self-assuming, egotistically practices would cause chaos on the world.

I have restricted many of such low-frequency, willfully-ignorant, fake spiritual people in their misdeeds and they have accused me of being evil/restrictive/negative. But they are right because they need to have shit dumped right onto their faces.

Being spiritual is to know what is really going on in the bigger truer picture and to act according to what needs to be done, even if it means to dump shit on the faces of low frequency people who think they know much but actually knows shit. They are actually empty heads that are very easy to be dealt with.

Why Fake Spiritual People Often Assume Spiritual Concepts in Opposite

I used to wonder why many people often assume many spiritual concepts in the opposite, now I have the explanation to explain why they do that.


Associating Spirituality with What One is Most Familiar with

Many people often assume the various spiritual concepts in opposite because they assume that having more quantities of the lower frequency worldly qualities would make one more spiritual.

Since most people are low frequency people perceiving in their low frequency perspective, what they assume would usually also be associated with the low frequency. If they would to imagine what spirituality is, they would have a high chance of associating spirituality with low frequency attributes as well.

Example 1) The low frequency superficial spiritual students assume that to be spiritual, one has to only seek the pleasant and avoid the unpleasant. This is low frequency thinking because the soul desires to experience and understand the unpleasant things in reality.

Example 2) They assume that one has to be spiritual by doing yoga, which is just being caught down by associating spirituality with the physical.

Example 3) They assume that to be spiritual, one has to not point out and correct people's faults effectively. This is actually a low frequency worldly form of indifference and cowardice that superficial people often do to stay popular in their social circles.

Example 4) They assume that spiritual people can only look old and worn out because they associate wisdom to come with physical age. However, they only perceive age as in current human age rather than the age of the soul. They do not realize that the soul has already lived many lives before its present human life and its spiritual wisdom is not based only on its current human age or appearance.

Low frequency people cannot understand what high frequency spirituality is because they are still perceiving from their low frequency superficial self-assuming perspective.

Therefore the low frequency people often would assume the opposite of many spiritual concepts because they assume them with the low frequency superficial materialistic things that they are used to.

What High Frequency and High Vibration Are Really About

There are many superficial fake spiritual people who assume wrongly about what "high frequency" and "high vibration" energies are. They assume that high frequency is about being 'high', 'pure', sophisticated, refined and they seek to avoid ugly worldly things. But they have assumed this wrongly because they are perceiving from a small and low-frequency perspective and cannot see the bigger picture of what high frequency and high vibration really are.


What is High Frequency?

Many superficial fake spiritual people assume that a high frequency means a high quality kind of frequency but they are wrong. For example, a 50 Hz wave is not just a single wave but it is made up of 50 cycles of waves oscillating together. So in the case of 50 Hz being referred to as "high frequency", it is not about 'height' but it is about the large quantity of 50 waves that makes 50Hz "high" in energy oscillations.

So "high frequency" is actually about a broad quantity of waves and not about the quality of waves.

Souls came to the Earth plane in order to experience the physical human reality. They want to experience a broad range of human experiences. In this case, souls want to experience a broad quantity of human experiences. For superficial fake spiritual people to assume that souls only want to experience a very limited "high class" and "high quality" kind of sophisticated stylish life is to think that souls only want to experience a very small range of human experience.

If experiencing a "high quality" and "high class" way of life can get a soul to ascend to a higher dimension, then all the rich snobs and royalty people who experience their "high class" sophisticated stylish way of life would be the first to ascend out of the human plane. If this is true then pigs can fly to space and get their asses frozen.

High frequency in this case means a broad/large quantity of various kinds of human experiences.


What is High Vibration?

After a soul has experienced a high or broad frequency/range of human experiences, putting the different experiences together(like a jigsaw puzzle) through contemplation(meditation) to perceive the truer bigger reality would create a high clarity of understanding and consciousness. This high level of clarity would create the "high vibration" that is produced from the assembling of the random experiences/information being put into one big whole.

While high frequency is referring to a broad range of experiences, high vibration/clarity is the actual one that is actually referring to the quality of understanding/consciousness/enlightenment.

I have mentioned before that vibration comes from clarity, and frequency comes from perspective.


Fake Spiritual People Get Stuck Like Always

Fake spiritual people often lack courage and are afraid of experiencing a diverse range of human experiences. This is why they get stuck in their spiritual evolution and cannot ascend. This is why Dolores Cannon's Source mentioned that most people on Earth are bogged down by Karma and the volunteer souls are needed to come here to help them get off their Karma that is caused by them being stuck in their limited range/frequency perspective.


The Fake Spiritual People vs The Real Spiritual People

The fake spiritual people think that spiritual people cannot act human and talk naturally, but have to restrict themselves by restricting their human interactions and experiences. This would only cause them to experience less than what their souls desire, which will only cause their souls to desire to come back to the Earth plane to experience more of the human life that they missed out. This is why the fake spiritual people have 'karma' that gets them stuck to the Earth plane. They are not ascending out of here as fast as possible like what true spiritual people are doing by following their curiosity to experience a broad/diverse range of human experiences.

True and real spiritual people are constantly trying to experience as broad a range of human experiences as possible. They interact with people a lot and use their immense curiosity to seek out what they want to know more about.

In comparison, the fake spiritual people suppress themselves and become very uptight and retarded. I have mentioned before of how Valery Uvarov mentioned that many spiritual teachers died of cancer. And I commented that it is because they suppressed themselves so much that their high internal conflict caused their self-destruction.

Many past spiritual teachers died of cancer (57:20)

Frequency and Vibration Cannot be Intentionally 'Kept' High or Dip Low Like a Yo-Yo

When some fake spiritual people advise others to keep their frequency and vibration 'high', I laugh at their stupidity, naivety and ignorance. If frequency and vibration can be kept high, wouldn't it mean that they can also dip low? This is just wildly nonsensical self-assuming bullshit that comes from low frequency fake spiritual people who perceive spirituality from a small limited point of view.

A person's frequency/perspective and vibration/clarity cannot be intentionally 'kept' high. Frequency and vibration is progressed to a certain level through the long accumulation of frequency/perspective and the hard work to increase vibration/clarity. The level of frequency and vibration is quite fixed and cannot rise up or down like a flexible yo-yo.

Fake spiritual people like to think that frequency and vibration can be raised very quickly and easily because they are small-minded and lazy to think that spiritual progression is fast and easy. But hell no. Frequency and vibration can take a very long time to be increased.


The Bible Compares the Real and the Fake Spiritual People

In the bible, Jesus mentioned that the prostitutes will be the first to ascend to heaven while the false teachers will be the last. The last will be first and the first will be last. This is referring to the people who experience diverse human experiences compared to the ones who restrict themselves.

The real spiritual people will ascend first and the fake spiritual people will ascend last! The repressed fake spiritual people are so full of self-assumed false bullshit!

The Meaning of Life -- My Latest Higher Realization of the Soul's Purpose on Earth and the Criteria for Dimensional Ascension

The Purpose of Soul's Presence in the 3rd Dimension

Souls came to the lower 3rd dimension to experience low frequency and low vibration experiences. Since the 3rd dimension has low energetic frequency and vibration, souls who desired to experience it were needed to hold similar low frequency/perspective and vibration/clarity in order to properly experience the 3rd dimension.

Such low frequency and low vibration experiences in the 3rd dimension involves the need to hold on to various forms of limited mental clarity and perspective that would facilitate the experience of bias, various emotions, ignorance and stupidity. Low frequency and low vibration physical experiences would include experiences of limited physicality.

The Book of Genesis from the Bible has described this descension of the soul accurately with its metaphors, even though most of the Bible was edited. After Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil(I think this also means Bad), their level of consciousness lowered and they got to experience bias of 'Good' and 'Evil(Bad)', as well as took on individual separated consciousness(as opposed to group consciousness). This lowering of consciousness got them to realize their individual selves, as well as got them biased enough to realize that it was not 'Good' to be naked, they also got to practice Blame with their limited perspective. Because Adam and Eve's consciousness got lowered, they could not eat from the Tree of Life and live forever. With all the limitations set in place to experience the lower 3rd dimension, they were then cast out of the higher dimension as they were ready to experience the various low frequency and low vibration experiences of mental and physical limitations found within the 3rd dimension.


What Souls are Here to Experience

Souls are in the 3rd dimension to experience being biased of things that would cause them to feel them to be felt as good/desired and bad/undesired, which would allow them to feel various subjective emotional states such as happiness, fear, sadness, guilt, hatred that are caused by perceiving the smaller picture. They are also here to experience reality in fragments as opposed to perceiving it in the big picture, which would allow them to experience much ignorance, stupidity and foolishness.


When are Souls Ready to Ascend from the Human Experience?

Since souls are here to experience things such as bias of things to be 'good' and 'bad' and to perceive the small limited picture of reality to experience emotions, they would be ready to leave the 3rd dimension when they are no longer able to hold on to such bias of 'good' and 'bad', no longer hold on to separated consciousness(as opposed to group consciousness) but are able to perceive reality in the big picture.

Every human good and bad actions should be perceived to be all natural, normal and good/desirable to be experienced.


What Can Souls Do to Ascend from the 3rd Dimension?

Many people are only willing to perceive good things and are not willing to perceive the reason for why bad things occur. They shun the experience and acceptance of bad things and are not willing to understand the reason for why they occur. Because understanding the reasons why bad things occur in reality would complete the soul's experience of the human reality, it can expand the soul's perspective and clarity sufficiently to raise frequency and vibration of consciousness enough for it to ascend to a higher reality. Souls who shun such understanding of the bad would not be able to complete their human experience and would not be able to sufficiently raise their frequency and vibration to ascend to a higher dimension.


Strong Religious Bias of 'Bad' Keeps Souls From Ascending

Many fake superficial self-assumed 'spiritual' people shun the understanding of bad/undesirable things like lunatics on fire and they are only willing to express 'good/desirable' things. I think they were influenced to perceive spirituality due to the dogma of various religions that teaches people to only do and say good things and avoid the bad karma in order for them to make it to some heaven. But such religion-based beliefs are heavily biased, inaccurate, unscientific and limited in perspective, not forgetting stupid, ignorant and retarded.

I recently visited some Facebook groups related to spirituality, ascension and enlightenment and found the wall postings in all of them to be so full of false, shitty, silly and stupid assumptions of spirituality and ascension.

'Good' and 'Bad' things are natural occurring parts of reality, souls who are unwilling to accept the bad things as natural occurrences of reality are simply not allowing their consciousness to accept and to be aware of the larger part of reality. Because many fake spiritual people are not willing to be expand their consciousness of the bad and understand its true nature, they would not be able to expand their perspective/frequency and vibration/clarity sufficiently enough to complete their experience of the lower frequencies and vibrations in order to finish their human experience and ascend to a higher dimension.

In order to understand why bad things occur, souls must first resolve their bias of good and bad in order to perceive both as being totally normal. Many people reject their understanding of bad things like the plague because they perceive the bad as being very abnormal.

All forms of behavior are naturally occurring due to valid cause-and-effect reasons and therefore are all valid and normal. There are many superficial fake spiritual people who assume that people must cannot behave in 'unacceptable' ways and cannot use vulgarities, judge others or point out people's errors accurately. Worse still, they assume one cannot describe one's capabilities as being superior but must be humble/condescending of one's own abilities and cannot express honestly what one thinks--this is being so fake and retarded. They naively assume that one has to be charitable in order to ascend to some mystical heaven. Many silly monks assume that they can ascend just by avoiding certain human experiences.

These fake spiritual people are just biased to only wish to experience the 'good/desirable' things in life. Limiting their human experience to only experience happy things and reject bad things and suffering as being normal would only limit their consciousness from expanding.

Having a wide range of good and bad human experiences/behaviour are necessary for the soul to experience a complete wholesome human experience.


Unwillingness to Accept the Natural 'Bad' Creates Great Fear of it

There are many superficial new age spiritual people who are terrified of 'bad' things such as the Illuminati, reptilian aliens and new world order. All these are just natural as part of the lower frequency dimension experience. Because such superficial people are not willing to understand and perceive how such 'bad' groups are natural occurring, they perceive them as abnormal that need to be removed from reality as much as possible. This over-reaction only cause them to feel the feeling of abnormality/undesirability that makes up their fear. It is not that such groups can instill fear, it is people's over-reaction that makes themselves fearful.


Over-Attachment to One's Personal Perspective Creates the Bias for Karma

I have rethought Dolores Cannon's reference of Karma by the Source and I realize what it is really about. It explains Karma as being created from having children, that many people on Earth have it that prevents their ascension, and that volunteer souls have a sheath that prevents them from accumulating it.

The Source's Karma is like having a bias that keeps one limited to one's biased personal perspective. Having children causes one to hold on to limited perspective that involves taking care of children and prevents one from perceiving the greater reality. Souls on earth that have karma would be having bias that keeps them from accepting the 'bad' things as being normal and to understand its nature. Volunteer souls are objective and do not have the strong bias that many people on Earth would have.

It is perceiving the 'Good' to be normal/acceptable and the perception of the Bad to be abnormal/unacceptable that causes the great bias for Karma.


Many Volunteer Souls and Dolores' Practitioners Have Fell to Fear and Karma

Dolores said that the volunteer souls who came to Earth were invited because of their non-bias. However, many of them were not able to handle it and eventually held on to strong bias that make them sick that requires them to seek past life treatment. I have observed that many of Dolores practitioners even hold on to great fear and bias/karma. The 2 featured practitioners on Dolores website had to put copyright disclaimers on their blog having fear that people would steal their work that is not even totally created by them. I already told them that they are using the copyright notices wrongly but they still did not get it because they still hold on to too much attachment to their own perspective of being right and are not willing to entertain other people's perspective. I don't think they are ready to ascend soon so I just let them continue to do their silly BS. They even thought that I belong to some evil group.

They are many people who underwent past life regression and think that just because they came from certain council from some higher dimension, then they are automatically very spiritually advanced on Earth. Coming straight from the Source also doesn't mean that one's innocent objectivity would be immune to the heavy Bias/Fear and Karma found on Earth. They came to earth and many of them fell straight into the mud, and right into Dolores' therapy chair with their desires to commit suicide and other illnesses. They easily become fearful and biased enough to perceive the bad as being abnormal. They did not have a strong enough objectivity in their perspective but fell to Fear and Karma(attachment to self's perspective) just like the other souls on Earth who have much Karma. So I think some volunteer souls(if they are really so) do have Karma and Fear that are restricting their ascension and they might not be able to ascend to the 5D New Earth. Dolores did mention that there is a great risks for volunteer souls to get trapped on 3rd dimensional Earth.

Earth is said to be the most challenging school in the Universe, ascending from it is not as easy as many superficial and biased people would like to think, it is not easy even for volunteer souls. Many of them ended up in Dolores' therapy chair. Anyone who think that just because they are a volunteer soul and would automatically be spiritually advanced are just being naive. It takes great mental effort to expand consciousness well enough to ascend from the Earth school.


How to Resolve Karma — The Over-Attachment to One's Own Perspective

Since Karma is based on being to attached to one's own perspective to the point of being narcissistic and egotistical(exaggerated sense of self-importance), one can be free of such karma by willing to strongly perceive from other people's point of view in order to perceive the bigger picture of reality. Many volunteer souls are able to do this and become objective/unbiased but many also are not able to do this and got affected and contract serious illnesses.

I have also stated recently how some people who promote certain vegan diets are wrong in their overly-attached self-perspective. They think they are right as rain but are dumb and biased like hell.

Addressing the Misconception that Cancer is Caused by Consuming Acidic Foods

There is the popular misconception that cancer is caused or promoted with acidic foods but this is untrue. If cancer is really caused by mere acidic environments then everybody's stomach would have become cancerous. Cancer is more likely caused by the consumption of toxin-containing foods that can promote the mutation of cells that would lead to cancer.

The acidity or alkalinity of the foods consumed into the body are not able to affect the body's acidity except the urine.


Here are the main points I want to make in this article—

1) Cancerous cells are not caused by acidity or alkalinity of the foods consumed but more likely due to the toxins contained in them that cause cells to mutate and turn cancerous.
2) It is not possible to change the blood's pH level to become more overly-alkaline or overly-acidic from diet. The pH level in the stomach(based on digestion acid and food) does not affect the pH level in the rest of the body such as the blood.
3) One should manage the pH level of the stomach with diet for optimal digestion and overall health.


Acidity of the Stomach and Acidity of the Body/Blood

People need to distinguish the difference between the acidity that is present in the stomach and the acidity that is present in the body/blood. The stomach has to be very acidic to function optimally to digest food. However, if the blood's pH becomes too overly-acidic(or overly-alkaline) for some reason then serious consequences will occur due to the disruption of the pH level. But the body is already well-equipped to automatically manage the blood's pH level to prevent it from becoming too acidic or too alkaline. Therefore, people don't have to worry too excessively about the blood turning acidic by overly consuming alkaline-causing foods and drinking things like alkaline/mineral water, which could more likely hinder the stomach's proper digestion of foods.


Healthy and Cancerous Cells Both Require Acidic Environment to Function

The body(area outside of the stomach) is slightly acidic and its healthy cells require an acidic environment to survive. Cancer cells also create a more acidic environment themselves. Both healthy and cancerous cells are not able to survive in an alkaline environment. To eliminate cancer is therefore not by attempting to change the body's pH to be overly-alkaline which is impossible anyway, but to refrain from consuming toxin-containing foods.


Stomach's Acidity

Even though cancer is not caused by food acidity, it would be wise to manage the pH level of the stomach for proper digestion and well-being. If the stomach becomes too acidic due to the consumption of overly acidic-causing foods, it could lead to stomach discomfort. If it is too alkaline such as due to the consumption of alkaline/mineral water then digestion cannot occur optimally. This is why a stomach that cannot digest food properly would do better by consuming vinegar or acidic fruits. And a stomach that is too acidic would do well with consuming alkaline-causing foods such as fruits and vegetables that are alkaline.


Lemons are Alkaline-Causing, Oranges are Acidic-Causing

Lemons has overall more negative ions compared to positive ions so this makes lemons to have an alkalizing effect, and they are very efficient to neutralize an overly-acidic stomach. Other citrus fruits such as oranges and grapefruit have more positive ions compared to negative ions so those are acidic.


To reiterate the main points—

1) Cancerous cells are not caused by acidity or alkalinity of the foods consumed but more likely due to the toxins contained in them that causes cells to mutate and turn cancerous.
2) It is not possible to make the blood's pH level to become more alkaline or acidic from diet. The pH level in the stomach(based on digestion acid and food) does not affect the pH level in the rest of the body such as the blood.
3) One should manage the pH level of the stomach with diet for optimal digestion and overall health.

Debunking the Grain Brain Diet — A Diet that Promotes Eating Lots of Fat and Meat

I heard of the recent best-seller diet book called Grain Brain by David Perlmutter, neurologist and president of the Perlmutter Health Center in Naples, Fla.

What Grain Is Doing To Your Brain
http://www.forbes.com/sites/nextavenue/2013/11/14/what-grain-is-doing-to-your-brain/

"all carbs, including highly touted whole grains, are devastating to our brains. He claims we must make major changes in our eating habits as a society to ward off terrifying increases in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia rates.

And yet Perlmutter argues that his recommendations are not radical at all. In fact, he says, his suggested menu adheres more closely to the way mankind has eaten for most of human history.

What’s deviant, he insists, is our modern diet. Dementia, chronic headaches, depression, epilepsy and other contemporary scourges are not in our genes, he claims. “It’s in the food you eat,”

"Perlmutter says we need to return to the eating habits of early man, a diet generally thought to be about 75% fat and 5% carbs. The average U.S. diet today features about 60% carbs and 20% fat."

"Human genes, he says, have evolved over thousands of years to accommodate a high-fat, low-carb diet. But today we feed our bodies almost the opposite, with seemingly major effects on our brains. A Mayo Clinic study published earlier this year in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease found that people 70 and older with a high-carbohydrate diet face a risk of developing mild cognitive impairment 3.6 times higher than those who follow low-carb regimens. Those with the diets highest in sugar did not fare much better. However, subjects with the diets highest in fat were 42% less likely to face cognitive impairment than the participants whose diets were lowest in fat."


Here are my thoughts on the diet—

I checked out articles about the Grain Brain book and found the book to be quite biased with much fallacies about diet. I think the author suggested his diet of high fat and low carbs because the brain that is made up of 60% fat is more vulnerable to glycation damage on proteins(including blood veins) due to high blood glucose(from consuming high GI carbs) compared to other parts of the body that have more protein percentage to shield against glycation's protein damage.(view footnotes about glycation)

I also think that the earliest human species had to binge on fat because it was the most convenient source of calories because fat has 9 calories per gram compared to carb's and protein's 4 calories per gram. And they didn't know when their next meal would be coming so they had to binge efficient calories(from fat) as much as possible. Fat was also needed to keep bodies warm during cold winters.

So I don't think modern humans have to necessarily follow the eating habits of ancient humans. Modern people now have the luxury of eating more healthy foods and less of a need to binge on high calorie fat, and also are able to obtain good heating during cold winters so there is less of the need to require fat to keep the body warm.

Much modern advances in acquiring food and heating means that the human species can more easily adopt a vegan lifestyle in modern times compared to the past.

I feel that the author has committed the fallacy of thinking that the ancient diet is most natural and that modern man has to follow it. There is also the fallacy of thinking that carbs has to be drastically reduced just because the brain is more vulnerable to glycation's protein damage compared to other parts of the body.


Footnotes on Glycation

(Elle Magazine) Sugar and Aging: How to Fight Glycation
The relationship between sugar and fine lines can be sticky. Find out why!
http://www.elle.com/beauty/makeup-skin-care/sugar-aging-how-to-fight-glycation-614621

"The science is this: When you have sugar molecules in your system, they bombard the body's cells like a meteor ­shower—glomming onto fats and proteins in a process known as glycation. This forms advanced glycation end products (commonly shortened, appropriately, to AGEs), which cause protein fibers to become stiff and malformed."

"The proteins in skin most prone to glycation are the same ones that make a youthful complexion so plump and springy—collagen and elastin. When those proteins hook up with renegade sugars, they become discolored, weak, and less supple; this shows up on the skin's surface as wrinkles, sagginess, and a loss of radiance. The presence of AGEs also makes the complexion more vulnerable to bad-news assailants such as UV light and cigarette smoke. As New York–based dermatologist Cheryl Karcher, MD, puts it: "Number one, the glucose makes the cells abnormal; and number two, it creates free radicals. So you get a double whammy when it comes to aging."

"The external signs of glycation show up around the age of 30 or 35, when a perfect storm of built-up sun damage, environmental oxidative stress, hormonal changes, and the development of AGEs begins to result in, well, a-g-e. "When you're younger, your body has more resources to ward off damage, and you're producing more collagen," says New York– and Miami-based dermatologist Fredric Brandt, MD, who in 2007 was one of the first to launch an anti-aging skin-care line specifically addressing glycation. "When you reach a certain age, these sugar by-products begin to build up at the same time that your threshold for damage is getting lower."

Glycation
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2001/07/14/insulin-part-one.aspx
"Everyone knows that oxygen causes damage, but unfortunately the press has not been as kind to publicize glycation. Glycation is the same as oxidation except substitute the word glucose. When you glycate something you combine it with glucose. Glucose combines with anything else really; it's a very sticky molecule.

Just take sugar on your fingers. It's very sticky. It sticks specifically to proteins. So the glycation of proteins is extremely important. If it sticks around a while it produces what are called advanced glycated end products (A.G.E.s).

That acronym is not an accident. If you can turn over, or re-manufacture, the protein that's good, and it increases the rate of protein turnover if you are lucky. Glycation damages the protein to the extent that white blood cells will come around and gobble it up and get rid of it, so then you have to produce more, putting more of a strain on your ability to repair and maintain your body.

That is the best alternative; the worst alternative is when those proteins get glycated that can't turn over very rapidly, like collagen, or like a protein that makes up nerve tissue. These proteins cannot be gotten rid of, so the protein accumulates, and the A.G.E.s accumulate and continue to damage.

That includes the collagen that makes up the matrix of your arteries. A.G.E.s are so bad that we know that there are receptors for A.G.E.s, hundreds of receptors, for every macrophage."

Scientific Debunk of the 801010 and 30BAD Diets

Introduction

I just want to do a quick debunking of the 801010 and 30BAD diets with various scientific references. I am just the messenger of Science, my personal opinions are not included. If anyone wants to hate, they can go hate on Science as much as they want.

This debunking is directed at the assumptions made by the 2 diets' founders that their promoted diets are optimal for health that are meant for everyone to follow. In this article that I put together, I will show how such an assumption is not true at all, and that there are healthier ways of eating to follow in order to gain better health.

In order to debunk the 2 diet's feasibility, I will provide many examples of a much healthier way of eating and also to loss weight effectively, so I advise anyone to read through this article thoroughly if they wish to gain such valuable information.


A Quick Summary of the 801010 and 30BAD Diets

What I know about the 801010 diet is that it is based on the daily calorie ratio intake of carbohydrates, fats and protein respectively. It applies to both raw and cooked food diets promoting whole, fresh, ripe, raw and organic foods. The 801010 does not set a minimum amount of calories to consume. The 30BAD diet follows the main principle of the 801010 diet but deviates by aiming for 2500 and 3000 cal minimum for women and men respectively. It also promotes a 'backup plan' that includes refined sugar, cooked starches and foods cooked at very high temperatures(such as pizza).

According to a video explaining the 801010 diet, Doug Graham who is the founder of the diet is seen explaining that the 801010 diet was inspired from a similar 801010 ratio practiced on heart patients to reverse heart disease. However, my opinion is that diets often used for medical purposes may not always be suitable for the healthy mainstream public to follow, although the low GI diet commonly used for diabetic patients has been found suitable for anyone sick or healthy to reduce effects of Glycation.


Practice of Several Logical Fallacies

A diet meant for medical purposes to reduce the effects of a disease may not also be a diet suitable for normal healthy individuals to thrive in. Many diets meant for medical uses require extreme reduction of fats and protein for patients with heart disease and gluten for celiac disease sufferers, however such extreme reduction in such foods does not necessarily apply to normal healthy individual who are not suffering from such diseases. For the 30BAD diet, the assumption that every person has to consume a minimum of 2500 or 3000 cal a day to be healthy or lose weight is not supported by science.

To assume that a diet that was originally used to treat medical conditions is also suitable for anyone else to follow, and to assume that everyone has to consume a certain amount of calories a day is to commit the following logical fallacies:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacy_of_composition
The fallacy of composition arises when one infers that something is true of the whole from the fact that it is true of some part of the whole (or even of every proper part).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hasty_generalization
Hasty generalization is an informal fallacy of faulty generalization by reaching an inductive generalization based on insufficient evidence — essentially making a hasty conclusion without considering all of the variables.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appeal_to_probability
An appeal to probability (or appeal to possibility) is the logical fallacy of taking something for granted because it would probably be the case (or might possibly be the case).


The Amount of Fats and Protein in the 801010 Diet As Being Too Low — Fats As Required Carriers For Fat-Soluble Vitamins A, D, E and K

There are micro-nutrients vitamin A, D, E and K that are fat soluble meaning they dissolve in fat rather than water. Such fat-soluble vitamins have been researched and found to have a higher bioavailability or higher absorption by the body when fats/lipids are also consumed with such vitamins.

Carotenoid bioavailability is higher from salads ingested with full-fat than with fat-reduced salad dressings as measured with electrochemical detection
http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/80/2/396.full

The study found that salads eaten with 28grams of fat allowed for greater absorption of cartenoids such as vitamin A. 28 grams of fat is equivalent to 2 tablespoons of fat/oil. Of course, fats from fresh foods such as coconut meat/milk and avocados are better options compared to cold-pressed oils that can go rancid within months from their production date.

There is a study finding Long Chain Triglycerides to be more effective as a carrier for fat-soluble vitamins compared to Medium Chain Triglycerides. This means that MCT fat from coconut oil is less effective as a carrier for fat-soluble vitamins compared to fats/oils that are LCT such as those found in flaxseeds and avocados.

Could the Lack of Fats in 801010 and 30BAD Have Caused Brittle and Broken Teeth in Many Followers?

The function of the fat-soluble Vitamin A is to maintain healthy teeth and skin. Many 801010 and 30BAD followers have complained of brittle and broken teeth while being on such diets. The lack of fat in the 801010 and 30BAD diets is a prime suspect for their lack of bioavailability of the fat-soluble vitamin A to be well-absorbed by the body, leading to the poor health in teeth.

The fat-soluble vitamin D promotes absorption of calcium. The lack of fats to increase bioavailable vitamin D would lead to malabsorption of calcium, also contributing to poor health in teeth.

The other fat soluble vitamins K and E are for promoting blood clotting and skin health respectively.

(There are many horror stories of broken teeth, hair loss and other scary personal accounts of the 801010 followers posted at the 801010 book's review section at amazon.com. Lots of horror stories are also found at http://30bananasadaysucks.com )

If people take supplements for Vitamin D without the necessary fat as carrier, they may not be properly absorbed by the body. So fats are still needed to be consumed with supplements. This is why vitamin E is often found in oil capsules, and also why the directions for taking multi-vitamin supplements are advised to be done so after meals to aid their absorption with fats found in foods.

There is no current recommended daily allowance(RDA) of fats to serve as vitamin carriers although there is the general RDA for fats to be in the range of 57g to 100g depending on energy expenditure.

The Bioavailability Bugaboo
http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/71/5/1029.full

2 tablespoon of fats(28g) for each meal of the day amounting to 84 grams total is a reasonable estimate for the amount needed as carrier for the fat-soluble vitamins. There are also fats that are already found in whole foods such as nuts and seeds such as walnuts and flaxseeds. Cold-pressed oils have been found to go rancid much sooner than their listed expiry dates so the best option is to consume fats from fresh sources. I personally take 2 tablespoons of whole flax seeds a day for omega 3 although they can also function as carrier for the fat-soluble vitamins. The flax seeds may look really sharp but they really do not scratch the throat at all, they are as harmless as sesame seeds and can be used similarly.


Fats and Protein are Crucial for Various Basic Biological Functions

Many people are unaware of the role of fats/lipids in various biological functions. They assume that fats are just unhealthy and cause disease. While the extreme intake of fats is linked to heart disease, a moderate consumption of fats/lipids is still healthy and required for good health. The RDA for fats lies in the range of 30% that is much higher than 10%.

Lipids/fats are found in every cell of the body similar to protein and are needed for cellular electrical signals to reach their destination. The brain is 60% made up of fat and require essential omega 3 fatty acids to maintain health and intelligence -- the lack of omega 3 fatty acids can indeed make a person mentally stupid and become more susceptible to cult mentality. The myelin lining for brain nerves is made up of fat, the deficient of such a lining can lead to brain-related disease. The body's organs are lined with saturated fat that also acts as buffers for shock absorption. Saturated fat(and cholesterol) is even produced by the body. The word "saturated' in saturated fat just means that it is more dense compared to other fats, it does not necessarily mean it is absolutely harmful.

Lipids are crucial to cell function (such as cellular membrane function)
http://www.mansfield.ohio-state.edu/~sabedon/biol1030.htm

Protein is needed to maintain hair, skin and nails that are thriving with health and beauty, protein is also found in every cell of the body. 10% protein intake a day is just too low an amount. The RDA for protein is 1g to 1.5g per kg of body weight.


Not All Fats/Oils are Bad

I wrote the following quite a long while ago—

Other health diet preachers who have appeared in food documentaries have gotten the biased view that all oils are detrimental for the endothelial cells in the blood vessels but this is not true, it is only olive oil that has been found to pose such a problem.

There is science research that has found olive oil to be able to dilate blood vessels possibly due to the polyphenols that have an astringent effect. So people who have problems with their blood vessels might be wise to avoid olive oil and take other kinds of fat.

Dr Vogel's research properly explains how olive oil can significantly injure the endothelium and that the effects of other oils used in the research such as canola oil had insignificant effects on the endothelium.

http://connecticare.com/GlobalFiles/HealthNews/article.asp?ID=091e9c5e8000735f&Cat=0&Num=6

"The olive oil meal caused vessels to constrict by 34%, whereas the canola oil and salmon meals caused insignificant changes in blood vessels, Vogel reports. Because such constrictions injure the blood vessels' endothelium, they contribute to heart disease."

Since Dr Vogel's research has found that oils such as canola "caused insignificant changes in blood vessels", other oils such as flaxseed and hemp oils should be alright to consume. Oils rich in omega 3 has been found to improve endothelium function.

Effect of omega-3 fatty acids supplementation on endothelial function: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22317966


"Supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids significantly improves the endothelial function without affecting endothelium-independent dilation."


The Low Ratio of Fats and Protein in 801010 and 30BAD Does Not Promote Healthy Appetite Management

A higher percentage of protein intake of 15% has been found by researchers to reduce calorie consumption. Those who wish to control their appetite to lose weight may find the increase to 15% protein to be helpful. The current RDA for protein is also in the range of 15%.

http://sydney.edu.au/news/science/397.html?newsstoryid=7980

"A multidisciplinary team of researchers, including those from the School of Biological Sciences, the School of Molecular Bioscience and the Boden Institute of Obesity, Nutrition and Exercise at the University of Sydney, has shown that people on a 10 percent protein diet will eat more snacks between meals and consume significantly more calories in total compared with people on a 15 percent protein diet."

The low 10% protein in the 30BAD diet might be the reason why many of their followers tend to easily over-eat non-stop without any 'safety barrier' in place.


Medium Chain Triglyceride, Fatty Acid Found in Coconut Oil Has Been Found to Induce Weight Loss

The medium chain triglycerides in coconut oil has been found to increase metabolism for effective weight loss. The MCT in coconut oil is more easily metabolized by the body compared to long chain triglycerides found in other types of fats/oils.

Eating fats from coconut oil and avocado has been found to create a better sense of fullness/satiety leading one to eat less calories overall.

I recently tried some coconut oil and found my body and face getting warm at night. So I am certain the thermogenesis effect from coconut oil really works. But since I am more focused on gaining weight rather than losing weight, I would not be using much coconut oil perhaps I would use it for making vegan ice-cream in the future.

Extra Virgin coconut oil can be expensive, the brand I bought from the Indian shops is called Nirapara imported from India and costs 1/6 of the price at $6.50(US$5.40) for 1 litre. Although it was not stated to be extra virgin or organic, the oil is very strong of coconut flavor and scent that is the norm for extra virgin coconut oil, so it seems to be extra virgin coconut oil. I have also bought extra virgin coconut oil priced at $8.90 for 100ml so I know how the extra virgin coconut oil tastes and smell like. Coconut oil is a clear liquid at room temperature(28 degC and above) in Singapore where I live, it becomes a white solid when room temperature goes below 25 degC in cold temperate countries.

Salt is Not Toxic

What else do I need to address in regards to the 2 diets? There is some silly rumour saying that salt is toxic, inorganic and therefore not usable by the body. These are just false rumours made up by those who never studied or researched biochemistry.

Sodium is an electrolyte that helps to transmit electrical signals for a healthy neurological system preventing low blood pressure and kidney failure among other things. It is one of the most important substances for the body.

How a Sodium Electrolyte Imbalance Can Effect Your Health
http://voices.yahoo.com/how-sodium-electrolyte-imbalance-effect-your-5955290.html?cat=5

The major electrolytes: sodium, potassium, and chloride.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7965369

Sodium chloride is readily dissoluble in water(h20). Once salt or sodium chloride reacts with water(h20), the water molecules separate the sodium from the chloride. The separated sodium is then usable by the body.

http://www.chem.wisc.edu/deptfiles/genchem/sstutorial/Text7/Tx75/tx75p3.GIF

The soil today contains very little minerals like sodium, so one has to supplement if there is a deficiency. The RDA is between 1500mg to 2000mg.

Something has to be 'inorganic' in order to be a mineral. Organic just means being something from a living organism. There is no need to be afraid of 'inorganic' minerals.

Take a look at B. and figure 7.17 to see how sodium chloride is easily broken down with simple water—
