You sometimes come across information that lets you know you're doing all the right things, despite the ravings of the mob.
Do you feel better with this data?
Actual figures reveal:
VEGETARIANS DIE YOUNGER. Oh, they tell you they're healthier, but census data shows the opposite. Plus...
VEGETARIAN KIDS ARE SICKLIER. The Archives of Pediatric Adolescent Medicine reports that children reared on these diets are at higher risk for "impaired psychomotor development."
VEGETARIAN DIETS WON'T EVEN MAKE YOU MORE REGULAR. Even teenage vegetarians are 8 times more likely to use laxatives!
AND THEY COULD SAP YOUR SEX LIFE AND YOUR STRENGTH. This is not a myth. In fact, researchers at the University of Massachusetts Medical School have linked meatless, low-protein diets to slumping sex function and muscle loss and bone damage.
And if your idea of instant breakfast is COFFEE AND A CIGARETTE...
Actually, you're half right. That morning cup of coffee you crave is one of nature's REAL HEALTH miracles:
JUST DRINK 2-3 CUPS A DAY and presto! You're 45% less likely to suffer from gallstones...
RAISE IT TO 4 CUPS and you dramatically drop your risk of colon cancer (the second deadliest cancer in America)...
WANT ONLY ONE CUP? Plug in the pot! Because just one cup of coffee packs the antioxidant power of three fresh oranges.
I don't recommend smoking, but if you do, don't give up the coffee! One study shows it may even help protect smokers from bladder cancer.
Then, when they pester you to "DRINK 8 GLASSES OF WATER A DAY"...
Turn back on your tormentors with one simple question. WHY?
Know what? NOBODY KNOWS WHY. In the words of a famous nutritionist at Penn State University, "I can't tell you...and I've written a book on water."
Maybe your kidneys need it? No, according to a kidney expert at the National Institutes of Health, the average healthy adult gets all the water he or she needs from solid food alone.
Well then, perhaps it's to replace the water you lose from drinking coffee? Wrong again! The Journal of the American College of Nutrition confirms that caffeine doesn't dehydrate healthy people.
From now on, you have doctor's orders to drink water only when you feel like it. And if you'll take just one precaution with your water supply, you can...
SLASH YOUR RISK OF ALZHEIMER'S OVERNIGHT
It's really easy. Starting tomorrow, drink no tap water. Not because of industrial pollution, but because of chemicals that "health authorities" are adding to your water. For example...
People who warned against FLUORIDATION used to be ridiculed, but guess what? In Scandinavia, in fact all of Europe, and nearly every other medically advanced nation, they have now banned the practice.
Know why? Because fluoride makes your body absorb extra aluminum. And where does the aluminum go? Your brain. And what metal shows up alarmingly in the brains of Alzheimer's victims? You guessed it. (Hmm... Maybe our health authorities have been drinking too much water?)
*Ahhhhhhhh...steaks tonight with veggies smothered in cheese.
