Purple Cabbage

Purple Cabbage is nutrient-packed and low in calorie. It is impressive with its high content levels of calcium, iron, iodine, potassium, sulfur, and phosphorus. In the vitamins department, it is loaded with vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, C, E, K and folic acid.

This amazingly healthy vegetable is a rich source of a number of phytonutrients which help boost our defense mechanisms, blocks the reaction of cancer-causing substances, detoxifies and eliminates harmful toxins and hormones, and stimulates production of antibodies to fight cancer.

The anti-cancer properties in cabbage make it a powerfully healing food in combating heart disease and cancer. Studies after studies have shown that fresh cabbage juice has been effective in the treatment of a number of cancers and ulceration in the digestive tracts.

The super healing effect of the superior chlorophyll in cabbage has been found to be good for blood building.

Daily and frequent consumption of cabbage juice has shown to be effective in preventing and treating cancers of the breast, colon, liver, lung and ovarian. A compound in cabbage, sulforaphane, also helps protect cells from invasion of carcinogens.

The slightly laxative effect of cabbage makes it effective in stimulating bowel movement. Eat the uncooked cabbage, either on its own, or juiced.

The amino acid glutamine in cabbage juice is totally gentle and cleansing on the digestive system, detoxifying, repairing ulcers, healing and regenerating. The juice is to be taken in small amounts of about 100 ml, three times a day on an empty stomach.

A compound called histidine in cabbage is found to be useful in treating allergies and regulating the T-cells in our immune systems.

The high sulphur, chlorine, and iodine content in cabbage have the significant ability in cleansing the mucus membranes in the tracts.

A substance in cabbage inhibits the conversion of sugar and other carbohydrates into fat, definitely a painless way of dieting.

When buying cabbage, choose the smaller variety and make sure it is organic, they taste better.

Cabbage is easier to digest in its raw fresh form than when cooked. The longer it is cooked, the less digestible it becomes. Cabbage sprouts are delicate and easier to digest, and they also contain higher levels of nutrients.

Avoid buying pre-cut cabbage that are either halved or shredded. The moment the cabbage is cut, it begins to lose its nutrient contents. To store, keep the vegetable refrigerated in a perforated plastic bag to prevent loss of its vitamin C.

I juice a whole organic purple cabbage every today, some times twice a day. I mix it with lots of organic beets, beet tops, kale, spinach, lots of parsley, kale, carrots and one apple. I also eat my "Longevity Aware" salad twice a day which consist of organic purple cabbage, beets, parsley, carrots, celery, bean sprouts, and other vegetables.

I highly recommend eating lots of dark cabbage; it is one of the most nutritional anti-aging vegetables.

HEALTH NEWS ~ JULY

Eating healthy is my passion and I love to collect and try new recipes.  I have over 1700 recipes on my computer “cookbook”.  Eating healthy doesn’t mean the food has to taste bad.  The Recipe of the month is Alfredo. It is simple, easy and very tasty. 

Creamy Alfredo Sauce
½ c. raw cashews
1 ¼ c. water
1 T. unbleached white flour
1 T. chicken seasoning, vegan
¼ t. onion powder
½ t. real salt
1 t. basil

Blend cashews, flour, seasoning, onion powder, salt and water until creamy.  Pour blended mixture into saucepan and bring to a slow boil.  Add basil and remove from heat.  Ladle over cooked fettuccine noodles and serve with steamed broccoli pieces and a fresh salad.

God wants us to be healthy. In 3John 2 it says, “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. 

Isn’t that wonderful?  God wants us to be in good health. He does not want us to be sick and that is why He gave us such wonderful counsel on how to eat, when to eat and what to eat. Read Genesis 1:29.

Also, if you are interested in getting a vegan digital cookbook, I sell them. I have over 3000 recipes on it and it is only $15.00 plus shipping. (Usually $2-3, depending on where you live).

What we eat really does affect our health and moral strength and our usefulness in this world.

Actually we are told just that in our inspired writings of Ellen White. She says the following in Child Guidance on page 398. “True temperance teaches us to dispense entirely with everything hurtful, and to use judiciously that which is healthful.  There are few who realize as they should how much their habits of diet have to do with their health, their character, their usefulness in this world, and their eternal Destiny. The appetite should ever be in subjection to the moral and intellectual powers.  The body should be servant to the mind, and not the mind to the body.”

Interesting Fact:  Because of crowded, dirty conditions, more than 80% of the pigs bred in the U.S. have contracted pneumonia by the time they are slaughtered. 

Researchers found that people who eat the most processed meats (bacon, ham, bologna etc.) have a 68% higher risk of pancreatic cancer than those who eat the least of those meats.

Thank you God for healthy foods and a country that freely supplies them!  

Have a safe and happy 4th of July!

God Bless America!

Garlic

A flavorful shield against infection, colds, and heart disease, this herb is well worth its lingering aroma (reason why when using uncooked garlic for health benefits to only use a clove you just cut, crushed, diced etc & not use older garlic or jar minced garlic, or garlic powder etc.)

When a garlic clove is cut, the exposure to air releases 200 compounds with myriad medicinal abilities. One compound, allicin, is responsible for garlic’s legendary antibacterial properties. Allicin also keeps fungus and yeast infections in check and significantly increases immunity to the common cold. More important, the stinking rose reduces risk for atherosclerosis, the cause of most heart attacks and strokes, and evidence suggests that it may impede hypertension and cancer. Garlic contains high levels of selenium, which has anticancer efficacy, and components that form glutathione, the most powerful antioxidant the body manufactures, which thwarts cancer and diabetes. (How to save some of the health benefits of garlic during cooking, but you still only use a garlic clove).

Choose It & Use It

Use garlic liberally, aiming to consume several cloves a day. Excessive heat destroys allicin, but letting freshly chopped garlic sit for 10 minutes before cooking helps retain allicin’s healing powers. To eat a lot at once, slice the top off of a head of garlic and set it aside for 20 minutes. Then roast it for 30 minutes in a 350°F oven, and spread the softened cloves on whole-wheat bread.

Chemotherapy and Radiation

I thought this information was very good and wanted to share it with you.

CHEMOTHERAPY – Thirteen drugs are used in chemotherapy and their consequent side effects (as listed in the drugs package inserts for physicians), which include:

Destruction of the immune system,

Leukopenia,

Hemorrhage,

Gonadal suppression,

Bone marrow depression,

Phlebosclerosis (hardening of the veins),

Severe cellulites,

Vesication (blistering),

Tissue necrosis (death),

Fever,

Chills,

Nausea,

Prolonged vomiting,

Partial or total hair loss,

Lethargy,

Disorientation,

Ataxis (inability to coordinate muscle movements),

Dysarthria, (impaired speech),

Anorexia,

Enteritis,

Stomatitis,

Erythema, (morbid redness of the skin),

Anemia,

Liver failure,

Kidney failure,

Cancer,

And Death.

CHEMOTHERAPY and RADIATION DESTROY the immune system, the ONLY system in our body that gets us well and keeps us well from EVERY disease! Chemotherapy and radiation also destroy cells indiscriminately. Chemotherapy is poison and kills cells by poisoning them. It is a chemical and, of course, is unable to tell a cancer cell from a non cancer cell. That's why a person's hair falls out and they get so sick and vomit, because the chemotherapy kills cells indiscriminately. The explanation the doctor gives to justify using chemotherapy is that the chemotherapy tends to kill the cells that are the fastest growing or the fast-dividing cells, thus it will kill MORE cancer cells than normal cells. And this is true. But it kills so MANY normal cells, particularly the immune cells, which the patient often dies from the TREATMENT rather than from the cancer!

RADIATION burns out the cancer. It burns everything in its pathway. It also, like chemotherapy, kills cells absolutely indiscriminately and it destroys the immune system.

When the immune system is so severely damaged by chemotherapy or radiation, it can no longer restrain the spread of cancer. It is common after these methods of treatment to find that soon the cancer has returned and spread everywhere!

Chemotherapy and Radiation does not kill cancer cells completely. The left behind cancer cells becomes more resistance towards chemo and radiation and comes back again with more aggressiveness.

Does the mainstream media ever report about the overwhelming scientific evidence that shows chemotherapy has zero benefits in the five-year survival rate of colon cancer patients? Or how many oncologists stand up for their cancer patients and protect them against chemotherapy treatment which they very well know can cause them to die far more quickly than if they received no treatment at all? Can you trustingly place your life into their hands when you know that most of them would not even consider chemotherapy for themselves if they were diagnosed with cancer? What do they know that you don't? The news is spreading fast that in the United States physician-caused fatalities now exceed 750,000 each year. Perhaps, many doctors no longer trust in what they practice, for good reasons.

Even the Journal of the American Medical Association took note of the phenomenon when, in its diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer by Dr. Maurice Fox, a biologist from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. On the basis of studies carried out at the Harvard School of Public health, Dr. Fox found, among other things, that: Those who refused medical procedures had a lower mortality rate than those who submitted.

HEALTH NEWS ~ JUNE

Well, summer will officially be here soon.  Praise the Lord!  I love all the fresh fruit and vegetables we can get in summer. Here is a great recipe to try!

Grilled Cheese Sandwiches OR Cheese Spread

Blend until creamy:
1 c. water
¾ c. raw cashews
2 T. sesame seeds
1 ¼ t. real salt
½ t. garlic powder
1 T. onion powder
¼ t. dill seed
½ fresh red bell pepper
1-2 T. lemon juice
¼ c. oats, quick

Cook in pot on stove until thick.  Spread on bread and make grilled cheese as usual. Spread on toast. If using as a spread, put in container after cooking and let chill completely. 

Exercise is very important and we need to be doing it 5-6 days a week.  It is good for the heart too.  Here is what inspiration says:

Physical exercise is very essential for the healthful vigor of the organs of the body. HR, July 1, 1872 par. 5

They need the heart enlivened by the healthful vigor of exercise. HR, July 1, 1872 par. 7

The more we exercise; the better will be the circulation of the blood. More people die for want of exercise than through overfatigue; very many more rust out than wear out. 2T 525

“Walking, in all cases where it is possible, is the best exercise, because in walking, all the muscles are brought into action. There is no exercise that can take the place of walking. Want of exercise causes the bowels to become enfeebled and shrunken. Exercise will strengthen these organs that have become enfeebled for want of use. The circulation of the blood is greatly improved by the act of walking.” HR, July 1, 1872 par. 14

Wow walking sure is important and such a simple thing everyone can do and afford!

“Exercise quickens and equalizes the circulation of the blood, but in idleness the blood does not circulate freely, and the changes in it, so necessary to life and health, do not take place." MH 238 (1905). 1MCP 116

“Moderate exercise every day will impart strength to the muscles, which without exercise become flabby and enfeebled. By active exercise in the open air every day, the liver, kidneys, and lungs also will be strengthened to perform their work.” CG 339

“Such exercise would in many cases be better for the health than medicine. Physicians often advise their patients to take an ocean voyage, to go to some mineral spring, or to visit different places for change of climate, when in most cases if they would eat temperately, and take cheerful, healthful exercise they would recover health and would save time and money.”  MH 240

Health Benefits of Exercise and Physical Activity:

- Reduces the risk of premature death
- Reduces the risk of developing and/or dying from heart disease
- Reduces high blood pressure or the risk of developing high blood pressure
- Reduces high cholesterol or the risk of developing high cholesterol
- Reduces the risk of developing colon cancer and breast cancer
- Reduces the risk of developing diabetes
- Reduces or maintains body weight or body fat
- Builds and maintains healthy muscles, bones, and joints
- Reduces depression and anxiety
- Improves psychological well-being
- Enhances work, recreation, and sport performance

Sunshine is also a very important part of our health message.  We all need it and would not be healthy without it. The Sun is the brightest and most familiar object in the sky. Life on Earth would not be possible without it: Inspiration even talks about sunshine!

“Nothing so tends to restore health and happiness as living amid attractive country surroundings.... May God help us to do our utmost to utilize the life-giving power of sunshine and fresh air.” Testimonies, vol. 7, pp. 76-79. RC 145

Vitamin D is often referred to as the “sunshine” vitamin because our bodies can make it when our skin is exposed to the sun. About 10-15 minutes of sun exposure per day on our face, hands and arms—without sunscreen—is enough to meet our needs. And because it is a fat-soluble vitamin, it is stored in our fat cells for the days and weeks that we do not get enough sun exposure.

The food we eat exists because of sunlight falling on green plants.  The Earth would probably not be fit for life. Life as we know it needs liquid water, and Earth is the only planet to have it: without the Sun, Earth would be an icy rock in space. Even now, Earth is probably the only place in our solar system fit for life: any water on Venus and Mercury would become steam, any on Mars or on more distant planets would freeze.

“When drugs are thrown aside, when fermented liquor of all kinds is discarded, when God's remedies-- sunshine, pure air, water, and good food--are used, there will be far fewer deaths and a far greater number of cures.” 16MR 247

“This is one of nature's most healing agents.  If you would have your homes sweet and inviting, make them bright with air and sunshine, remove your heavy curtains, open the windows, throw back the blinds, and enjoy the rich sunlight, even if it be at the expense of the colors of your carpets.”  HL 229

“To the chronic invalid, nothing so tends to restore health and happiness as living amid attractive country surroundings. Here the most helpless ones can sit or lie in the sunshine or in the shade of the trees. They have only to lift their eyes to see above them the beautiful foliage. A sweet sense of restfulness and refreshing comes over them as they listen to the murmuring of the breezes. The drooping spirits revive”.   MH 264

Wow, even invalids can benefit from sunshine!  What an awesome God we serve!

“Those who are old enough should every day that the weather will admit, have a portion of their work in the open air and sunshine.” HR, April 1, 1871 par. 3

“The Lord has provided antidotes for disease in simple plants, [SEE FOOTNOTES ON PAGE 289 OF SELECTED MESSAGES, BOOK 2.] and these can be used by faith, with no denial of faith; for by using the blessings provided by God for our benefit we are cooperating with Him. He can use water and sunshine and the herbs which He has caused to grow, in healing maladies brought on by indiscretion or accident. We do not manifest a lack of faith when we ask God to bless His remedies. True faith will thank God for the knowledge of how to use these precious blessings in a way which will restore mental and physical vigor.”  16MR 248

Sunshine is very important to us and our planet as you already know. Too much can be bad tho too… so don’t overdo it either as you can get skin cancer from too much sun!

Here is a quote to live by!

“Live in the sunshine of Christ's love. Then your influence will bless the world. Let the Spirit of Christ control you. Let the law of kindness be ever on your lips. Forbearance and unselfishness mark the words and deeds of those who are born again, to live the new life in Christ.” YI, April 9, 1903 par. 4
