Introduction

Chances are almost certain that you’ll not live as long as you could; that you’re not living as healthy as you could; that you’re not living as lean as longevity and health call for; that you’re in the throes of an Unnatural Biological Disease-Creating PROCESS.

            Based on biological data reported in this book, you’ll see that the PROCESS is ongoing in most Americans.  It arose with civilization as you’ll see from biological data given in Chapter 2.  It is brought on by a NUTRIENT-POOR CALORIE-RICH diet, as you’ll see in other pages ahead.

            Based further on biological data reported in this book, you’ll see that the PROCESS is permitting the onset and development of virtually all preventable diseases including all cases of contagious, infectious, and inflammatory diseases; all forms of cancer; all forms of lifestyle triggered diabetes – such as pregnancy-diabetes and obesity-diabetes; all forms of heart disease; all forms of stroke; chronic fatigue; fibromyalgia; Lou Gehrig’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease; Parkinson’s disease … and obesity.

            In this book I present a natural way to terminate the PROCESS.  I explain how all preventable disease can be avoided through a NUTRIENT-RICH CALORIE-POOR diet.  I present numbers which quantify the nutrient value of virtually everything you eat.  Through an understanding of the biology of disease you’re about to learn, you’ll come to know the practical importance of the numbers … together with maintaining your biological cells free of acid and avoiding anything that creates allergy, the diet and the numbers will offer you the best chance to live the remainder of your life as free from prescription drugs, as free from preventable disease, as free from excessive body weight, and as free from foreclosure of life as your genes can permit. 

      NOTE:  Most of what you’re about to read was derived from the open science press.  This is literature in science journals available in libraries of research-oriented universities, industries, and government agencies worldwide.  Most of this literature had been published only if it had received favorable anonymous peer review.  I tell you this for two reasons:  one being the unavailability of such journals in mainstream public libraries, the other being the numerous statements you’ll read which run contrary to what is present in most, if not all, books on nutrition.

            On now to words fully capitalized in this book’s title.

HOW TO refers to 6 Daily Health Requirements biological facts call for.  For now, I present a preview.

1.            Maintain your “SERUM” free of acid.

Q:            “SERUM?”

A:        I capitalize each letter in this word for two reasons:

… by definition, serum is the clear portion of fluid in any portion of the body except the stomach;

… most people think of serum as being the liquid which sits alone after blood has clotted.  I want to emphasize that SERUM is more than just blood fluid.

     NOTE:  In keeping your SERUM free of acid you’ll be permitting each of 200 trillion living units in your body, known as biological cells, to operate most efficiently, assuming you fulfill the other requirements as well.

2.                  Include at least 4 grams of Flax Oil and Fish Oil in your diet daily.  (I use these terms instead of alpha linolenic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid).  From data and a citation to come you’ll see that your diet very likely contains less than 1.5 grams of these nutrients. 

     NOTE:  In fulfilling this requirement you’ll be permitting your cells to eat, eliminate wastes,  and export products as efficiently as your genes can permit – again, assuming you fulfill the other daily requirements as well.

3.                  Include at least 7 grams of the element potassium in your diet.  From data to come you’ll see that your current diet very likely includes less than 4 grams of this element.

     NOTE:  In fulfilling this requirement and that of having at least 4 grams of Flax Fish Oil, you’ll find from data to come that your diet will be as rich in all vitamins, minerals and other nutrients as maximum longevity, health and leanness call for.

4.                  Include at least 3 grams of the element sulfur in your diet.  From data to come, you’ll see that your diet very likely contains only about 1 gram of this element.

     NOTE:  In fulfilling this requirement, you’ll see that your cells will be producing 5 forms of what you’ll come to know as HealthSulfur.

5.                  Abstain from all allergy-creating food items.

     NOTE:  Here you’ll learn that if you have diarrhea or constipation more than once every week or so, on and on – that you’re very likely one of every 200 people in America who inherited genes that bring about what you’ll come to know as celiac disease.

     NOTE:  If you happen to have celiac disease – most people who do have it are under the false impression that they have an intestinal disorder – you’ll understand why you’re falling prey to various other kinds of preventable diseases.

6.                  Engage yourself in a small portion of physical activity, such as walking about now and then, throughout the day.

     NOTE:  You’ll find six self-applicable tests of health whose results will tell you how effective your physical activities are. 

     NOTE:  The results of the tests will also permit you to see how effective the NUTRIENT-RICH CALORIE-POOR diet is in:

… leading you to achieve leanness once and for all;

… strengthening, and maintaining strong, your heart;

… providing you with maximum Cell Power the rest of your lifetime;

… normalizing your blood pressure if it is high;

… permitting you to become engaged in increasing amounts of physical activity without
    endangering your heart;

… maintaining your SERUM free of acid.

LONGEST is in the title in relation to what are known technically as Housekeeping Genes.  These are genes that orchestrate the production of proteins that constitute the chemical-electrical-mechanical machinery in each of your 200 trillion cells.

     NOTE:  What you’ll see in Chapter 3 is that losses of Housekeeping Genes are occurring continuously if you’re diet isn’t NUTRIENT-RICH CALORIE-POOR.  Correspondingly, the losses bring about a trend toward falling prey increasingly to preventable diseases … and to premature death.

     HEALTHIEST is in the title in relation to prevention of preventable diseases.

     NOTE:  In using the term preventable disease I am referring not to classes of disease, such as genetic, contagious, infectious and so on.  Instead, I am referring to any disease that can be prevented, relieved, or cured by way of a NUTRIENT-RICH CALORIE-POOR diet.

     LEANEST is in the title in relation to equipping your cells with the best chemical-electrical-mechanical machinery your genes can make. 

     NOTE:  It is commonly believed that excess body fat can be burned best by exercise.  Not so, if the machinery in the 200 trillion living units is not operating at peak capacity 24 hours each day.  Indeed, if your diet is NUTRIENT-POOR CALORIE-RICH, don’t expect your cells to burn away the excess fat – no matter how hard you struggle through jogging, exercising, or the like.

      Let’s go on to Chapter 1.  I begin by telling how this book came into being.
