	SUGAR BABY WHERE IT ALL BEGINS The earth, what is this? People often protest against the abuse of animals and the depletion of natural resources such as the rain forests, rivers, beaches and oil. When- ever one cuts a tree they might feel a sensation of guilt; knowing that he is hurting the earth. What happens then when a human being perishes? Is mother earth affected? Does she feel the pain a mother feels when she looses a child? How does she feel when thousands of people are forcibly implanted in her bosom daily? The earth is defined by the Oxford English dictionary as “the planet on which we live”; hence creating the illusion that man is a separate entity from the earth. Man is part of the earth as much as the volcanoes, the ice caps and whales. Each time a man perishes or is suffering the earth is indeed affected and thus its balance is disturbed. Man is sometimes defined as a micro-cosmos; micro-very small and cosmos-universe, meaning that man is a very small uni- verse. The human being is not just a part of planet earth but a part of the entire universe and the process of knowing self begins by realizing that we are not a separate unit but part of a whole. Our ability to embrace this reality can determine how well or how sick we are. One would have to become conscious of the fact that as all other beings man has specific needs to be fulfilled and natural laws we must abide by or suffer annihilation. If the sun fails to rise one morning or the cow decides that it wants no more grass but would rather eat pork, what would be the product of this breach of the natural laws of Mother Nature? This is a hard thing to think about, but the violation of laws and principles is a daily occurrence when it comes to the everyday man. Yes God created heaven and earth and all that is in them, hence the reason he gave the sea its boundaries, the sun and moon their appointed time and all the creatures their nutritional guideline. “THE BIBLICAL DIET” The Almighty God created man, beast, plants and all that is within our environment. The Almighty God has thus set guidelines “commandments” that man and beast must abide by. Just like the sea knows its boundaries and the ears never get full of hearing man is suppose to live by the set principles of their creator, to be in harmony with all of nature and to maintain the set equilibrium of creation. Every country has laws that maintain a degree of peace and unity among the people. When these laws are broken people get punished through imprisonment and sometimes even death. Why then should we be surprise that the CREATOR of Zion and earth has laws, natural laws that we must adhere to if we must guarantee our survival. The punishment one gets from breaking the laws of God is die-easy (disease) and death. Let’s look at how things were in the beginning: GENESIS 1:1 “In the beginning God created heaven and earth.” “And GOD said, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.” Genesis 1:29 (kjv) After the earth was created and was furnished with all living things the Great Architect, The Master Creator said to man, your meat (not flesh) shall be herbs bearing seeds (basil, cannabis sativa, marigold) and fruits of a tree yielding seeds (papaya, guava, coconut), basically fruits, nuts and vegetables. We now a days refer to the carcass of animals in a semi-decomposed state (chicken, pork, beef, snake, lizard, frog) that furnishes our plates on our tables as meat. Many people are actually working to go to heaven, will there be any dead animals consumed as food? NO, even the lion shall be feeding on straw. Man has to do away with the wicked act of taking life to satisfy his greed and lust of the flesh and return to the biblical diet: as it was in the beginning so shall it be in the end. Many ones do swear over the bible and yet they refuse to acknowledge the basic truths that are written there in. We were given a specific nutritional guideline because we were created spiritually, anatomically, physiologically and psychologically to tolerate and consume a particular type of food. When we look at the digestive system of a cow or sheep (herbivores) and we analyze the structure of the bucal cavity (mouth) it can be obviously noted that it is very similar to that of a man. The bucal cavity of the sheep will contain predominantly molars, premolars and a few incisors, which is ideal for the cutting, crushing and grinding of seeds, herbs, fruits and vegetables. When we then look at the bucal cavity of the man we see that the arrangement of the different types of teeth is almost identical. We can then infer logically that man should consume as the bible says fruits yielding seeds and herbs yielding seeds; nuts, grains, fruits and vegetable. The leaf of the trees shall be used for medicine as the book of Ezekiel says: “And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.” Ezekiel 47:12 The digestive systems of humans, dogs, mice, horses, kangaroos and great white sharks are, to a first approximation, virtually identical. When carefully scrutinized however, it becomes apparent that each of these species has a certain digestive specialization that allow them to consume a particular diet. These differences become particularly apparent when you compare a carnivore like a cat with a herbivore like a sheep or a horse. Sheep and horses feed on plants and their digestive tracts have massive fermentation vats which enabled them to efficiently utilize cellulose, the major carbohydrate of plants. In contrast, cats feed on the carcasses of other animals, and have digestive systems that have extremely small fermentation vats and thus little ability to utilize cellulose. Humans have a more extensive small and large intestines to enhance interactions with enzymes and microbes that aid in the breaking down of nutrients and eventually absorption. A dog is a carnivore which will eat anything, predominantly carcasses. Thus it has a very simple digestive system and a short large intestine to minimize the length of time food takes to move along the alimentary track. The carcasses of animals usually contain lots of worms and other parasites which continue to strive even when these carcasses are cooked at extremely hightemperatures. How then does the dog eliminate all these worms from its body? Dogs usually eat the remainder of the dead animals from the plates of their owners, so it is safe to say that the majority of dogs have a similar if not identical diet (die-ate) to that of their owners. The dog when overwhelmed with worms will go to the wild, eat some grass and then vomit and defecate, a number of worms. Where did these worms come from? From their food. Where did the food come from? From their master’s plate. The master of the dog who eats the same food as the dog has lost the connection with the herbs that would have enabled him to use them to eliminate these worms from his system. His system remains infested and he develops sickness and disease. Herbivores have a more extensive large intestine, and ruminants like cattle and sheep have a large set of fore stomachs through which food passes before it reaches the stomach. This allows fermentation to take place and also increase the length of time that the cellulose is exposed to the cellulactic bacteria thus a more effective breakdown of cellulose. In humans the appendix was the site where these bacteria would be located, allowing human to actually digest the cellulose from the herbs, but the consumption of flesh and the administration of antibiotics have destroyed these bacteria. Look at the cow for instance; this animal is a herbivore or what we refer to as a vegan. In the UK the farmers decided that they were loosing too much by throwing away the intestines, skin and other non edible parts of the slaughtered cow. So, they decided to add these so call waste to the feed of the cows. What happened? We had the development of the disease “mad cow disease”, because men fed a herbivore flesh, contradicting the very laws of nature. What now do we expect to happen to man who is naturally created to consume fruits, nuts and vegetables and is now consuming all types of dead animals from fowl (foul) to rodents. They will suffer just like the cows who ate beef suffered and their entire behavior will also be altered, to what we see in our society daily; crime, homosexuality, disease and suffering. God created all things and placed them in the region on earth where they can feed, reproduce and grow with ease. Look at the polar bear, it is a carnivore and its system is designed to tolerate below zero temperatures. If this bear is placed in the tropics and given berries and grass to survive on it will die, because it has been place in an environment that is not conducive to its continuing existence. The biblical or natural diet of the polar bear is predominantly fresh fish and other animals that live in the natural habitat of the polar bear like seals and penguins. Let us now look at a zebra that was created to feed on grass and occupy the tropical regions of earth. Feeding this animal fish and seals will kill it in weeks. If the zebra is taken from the tropics and placed in the temperate regions like the north or south pole it will be very difficult to get food and also extremely difficult to survive the harsh cold. People swear over the bible all the time yet they refuse to acknowledge and live by the basic truth that is within the covers. Each day people eat food stuff but not real food and spend their money on junk (rubbish) foods, artificially flavored sodas, fake fruits and dead animals. Whatever amount of money they “save”, while slaving on a job will then be used to try to “save” them from dis-ease. How? By popping pills (non foods, drugs), surgery (cutting off pieces of themselves), injections and organ transplants as recommended. The human being (bean) is made up of cells coming together to form tissues, which then unite structurally and functionally to form organs that make up the human organism. Since we are organism we need natural and organic foods to nourish, strengthen and heal us. These foods will be able to interact with the organism (man) because all things are related and came from the same source. Non foods such as junk are not real thus they will only increase the work load of the anatomy and contribute very little if any to its survival. The digestive system of a cat (carnivore) HOLY EMMANUEL I SELASSIE I JAH RASTAFAR I CHAPTER 2 What is Digestion and The Digestive System? The Digestive System consist of a series of connected organs whose purpose is to break down and assimilate the food we eat. Food is made up of large, complex molecules, which the digestive system breaks down into smaller, simple molecules that can be absorbed into the bloodstream. The simple molecules travel through the bloodstream to all of the body's cells, which use them for growth, repair, and energy. All animals digestive system, a feature that distinguishes them from plants.Plants produce their own food in a process called photosynthesis, during which they use sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into simple sugars. But animals and man, must take in food in the form of organic matter, such as plants or other animals. Digestion two phases: a mechanical phase and a chemical phase. In the mechanical phase, teeth and other structures physically break down large pieces of food into smaller pieces. In the chemical phase, digestive chemicals called enzymes break apart individual molecules of food to yield molecules that can be absorbed into the bloodstream and distributed throughout the body by the circulatory system. These enzymes are secreted (produced and released) by glands in the body. Enzymes: Basic Concepts and Kinetics Enzymes, the catalysts of biological systems, are remarkable molecular devices that determine the patterns of chemical transformations. They also mediate the transformation of one form of energy into another. The most striking characteristics of enzymes are their catalytic power and specificity. The catalytic power involves the acceleration of a chemical reaction without the enzymes being changed permanently. Specificity is the act whereby each enzyme catalyses a specific reaction and no other, thus for each enzyme there is a specific molecule (substrate) to be broken down. Catalysis takes place at a particular site on the enzyme called the active site. Proteins as a class of macromolecules are highly effective catalysts for an enormous diversity of chemical reactions because of their capacity to specifically bind a very wide range of molecules. By utilizing the full repertoire of intermolecular forces, enzymes bring substrates together in an optimal orientation, the prelude to making and breaking chemical bonds. They catalyze reactions by stabilizing transition states, the highest-energy species in reaction pathways. By selectively stabilizing a transition state, an enzyme determines which one of several potential chemical reactions actually takes place. Enzymes Are Powerful and Highly Specific Catalysts. Enzymes accelerate reactions by factors of as much as a million or more. Indeed, most reactions in biological systems do not take place at perceptible rates in the absence of enzymes. Lock-and-Key Model of Enzyme-Substrate Binding. In this model, the active site of the unbound enzyme is complementary in shape to the substrate. The specificity of binding depends on the precisely defined arrangement of atoms in an active site. Because the enzyme and the substrate interact by means of short-range forces that require close contact, a substrate must have a matching shape to fit into the site. Induced-Fit Model of Enzyme-Substrate Binding. In this model, the enzyme changes shape on substrate binding. The active site forms a shape complementary to the substrate only after the substrate has been bound. The specificity of binding depends on the precisely defined arrangement of atoms in an active site. However, we now know that enzymes are flexible and that the shapes of the active sites can be markedly modified by the binding of a substrate. The active sites of some enzymes assume a shape that is complementary to that of the transition state only after the substrate is bound. This process of dynamic recognition is called induced fit. Thedigestivesystemof most animals consists mainly of a long, continuous tube called the alimentary canal, or digestive tract. This canal has a mouth at one end, through which food is taken in, and an anus at the other end, through which digestive wastes are excreted. Muscles in the walls of the alimentary canal move the food along via a process called peristalsis. Most digestive organs are part of the alimentary canal. However, two accessory digestive organs, the liver and pancreas, are located outside the alimentary canal. These organs contribute to chemical digestion by releasing digestive juices into the canal through tubes called ducts. The Digestive System A mans digestive tract is approximately 30 feet long. The digestive tract does not only stretch length wise but can also widen, that is why autopsies done on cadavers revealed up to 55lbs of feces in the intestines. So if this individual was weighing 155lbs their body mass only constituted 100lbs. For this reason the colon of the famous John Wayne had 45lbs of feces and Elvis (Evils) could have been saved from obesity and death if he had evacuated his colon with a “FREE UP LAXATIVE”. One always tends to assume that the digestive (die-just-eve) system begins from the mouth of an individual, and fail to realize that the thought of food can illicit certain reactions along the digestive track to prepare it for the breaking down of and the assimilation of food. The taste of food is also stored in our memory bank hence the reason we can recognize a food be taste. It is thus logical that the anatomy (an atom me) of the human being will produce specific hormones and digestive fluids corresponding to the food that is thought of. Experiments were carried out on dogs whereby they were fed at a particular time each day and before they were fed a bell would be rung. It was noticed that after a period of time whenever the bell was rung (even though no food was supplied) the dogs would begin to salivate in anticipation of that food. What we had was a specific stimulus (bell) and a learnt response (dog salivate). This is what is called a learnt behavior, so you do not have to wonder why each day when it approaches 12:00 noon we begin to feel hungry and yearn for food. We have acquired a “three meals (me-ill) a day with snacks in between” lifestyle which is killing us. The pill (p-ill) is just a catalyst towards an end. One must only eat when there is need for food and not when their programmed taste buds dictate. Take for instance whenever you begin to think about eating a sour fruit such as an orange or a tamarind one would begin to salivate because the taste of these fruits are recorded in your cerebral cortex (brain) and the slightest thought of them or seeing them from afar will produce this learnt response (salivate). The food industry spends more money in making the food appealing and addictive than they actually spend in producing good wholesome foods. Thus your food can either heal (hill) you or kill you. So we see that the digestive system actually begins from the brain, and that to every thought or feeling there is a bio-molecular reality. When one feels hungry it’s because of a decrease in the serum glucose thus if you take one teaspoon of pure honey the hunger sensation will disappear. A bio-molecule can make one feel happy or sad, brave or fearful since all feelings are manifested through the use of these molecules. Take for instance, when a young girl grows from a child to an adolescent (adult-less-sense) the chemical messenger is estrogen which will cause her breast to enlarge, pubic hair to grow, menstruation and widening of the hip. If one then injects estrogen into a young girl they could actually speed up this process. A woman will become irritated and nauseous when her menstrual cycle is near, why, because of hormonal changes. A firm understanding of this concept will empower one to know themselves better thus being able to care for their physical, spiritual and mental self with confidence. Did you know that the food we eat does not only give us energy to do work but is also responsible for the build up of tissues and chemical messengers? “You are what you eat.” This cliché must be taken literally since the food we eat actually builds up our bones and puts flesh on them. So when one say that they eat dead animals for proteins they must acknowledge the fact that the amino acids from these dead animals will actually be utilized to build up their muscles and also many hormones and enzymes. If one gets their protein from the pig then you know exactly where the amino acids that make up the proteins of the muscles of your arms and entire physical structure come from. Yes you are what you eat. A single molecule of DNA replicates to generate two identical copies and the sequence of bases in a DNA molecule determines the sequence of amino acids in an encoded protein. DNA is a bio-chemical that actually determines how tall or short you are, whether you are black or white, well or sick and carries the genetic material that ensures the survival of mankind. It is thus important to know how the food we put in our mouths are broken down, assimilated and incorporated within the human anatomy. Take for instance DES ( diethylstilbestrol) is a synthetic form of estrogen, a female hormone. It was prescribed between 1938 and 1971 to help women with certain complications of pregnancy. Use of DES declined following studies in the 1950s that showed it was not effective in preventing pregnancy complications. When given during the first 5 months of a pregnancy, DES can interfere with the development of the reproductive system in a fetus. For this reason, although DES and other estrogens may be prescribed for some medical problems, they are no longer used during pregnancy. This hormone is also place in animal feed because of its growth hormone like property and thus drastically quickens the growth rate of these animals. DES affects the DNA of the children and grand children of the people that were exposed to this chemical by placing an extra methyl group on the DNA molecule. This results in the increase incidence of cancer of the vagina, cervical cancer, fibroids, breast cancer and also prostate cancer in men. It Is very important to give thanks before one begin to feast on their food because this actually calms down the system and prepares it to accept the food. The food must also be very colorful and arranged artistically to stimulate the frontal lobe of the brain: corresponds to the eyesight. Using freshly picked flowers and fresh fruits to decorate the food will ensure the stimulation of both the sight and the smell which are both intricately related to the taste buds. This will facilitate easy digestion of the food feasted upon. The digestive system is sometimes referred to as a “Second brain” since it is controlled independently of the central nervous system and one has no voluntary control of what happen to food as long as it has left the oral cavity. This is referred to as “The Enteric Nervous System” (a system of nerves in the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, and gallbladder that influences all digestive processes). The enteric system operates without input from the brain or spinal cord and controls the movement, break down and the absorption of food along the alimentary canal. The mouth is responsible for both mechanical and chemical breakdown of food and is one of the only two regions along this tract where carbohydrates can be chemically broken down. This reiterates the importance of proper use of the mouth. The teeth in the mouth of a man is ideal for the grinding and crushing of nuts, grains, fruits and vegetables as that of the mouth of a herbivore such as a sheep. Like the mouth of a sheep the mouth of a man contains predominantly molars and premolars hence they should be consuming like foods. When we compare the mouth of the sheep and that of a dog the difference is astonishing: like night and day. Why? Because the diets of the dog and sheep are completely different thus their teeth has to be suitable for the mechanical breakdown of the foods they consume. We see people feeding their dogs from the leftovers of their plates and then when the dog gets overwhelmed by worm infestation they resort to eating specific herbs that would cause them to vomit and defecate tons of worms. Keep in mind that this is not just instincts but this has been handed down from one generation of dog to the next. So you see people actually eat the same food as their dogs yet they never consume any herbs to eliminate the worms in their digestive tract. It is wrong first of all that man consumes the same food as a dog and secondly the teeth of a dog are completely different from that of a man hence designed to consume totally different foods. The fangs in the mouth of a dog, lion, wolf or any other carnivore is ideal for the tearing and searing of dead meat. If a man is placed in the wild it will be very difficult for him to survive on chasing down a deer, ripping open their arteries and tearing apart their flesh. It will be much easier and healthier to pick berries and feed on wild nuts. The food has to be chewed thoroughly making sure that it is crushed finely and mixed with the saliva. The crushing and mixing of the food ensure maximum action of the salivary amylase which is an enzyme that breaks down complex carbohydrates to simple carbohydrates. What is an enzyme? All enzymes are proteins. Enzymes are protein catalysts that increase the velocity of a chemical reaction and are not consumed during the reaction they catalyze. If all enzymes are proteins and all plants contain enzymes then it’s logically and scientifically correct to say that all plants contain proteins. The myth of having to eat dead animals for proteins since plants do not have proteins should be dashed away. The enzyme in the mouth is called salivary amylase which actually breaks down the complex carbohydrates such as starch to simple sugars such as glucose which will then be absorbed lower down the digestive tract. Enzymes need a specific environment to function optimally for instance the salivary amylase will become inactivated when it enters the stomach since the PH ( hydrogen concentration) of the mouth and stomach is different. The stomach is acidic and the mouth is alkaline. This further emphasizes the importance of proper mastication of the food to ensure that as much carbohydrate is broken down in the mouth as possible, this will reduce the work load of the stomach and diminish the frequency of fermentation of the sugars in the stomach. When sugars ferment in the stomach this can increase the risk of developing acid reflux, stomach ulcers and eventually stomach cancer. The environment in the stomach is more convenient for the breaking down of proteins thus there will be no digestion of the sugars, which will spend a longer time in the stomach resulting in the formation of gas that leads to bloating. The food should be chewed at least 49 times ensuring proper mixing with the saliva, rolled into a bolus by the tongue then easily moved down the esophagus. A donkey will chew a banana until it gets so slimy that it literally runs down the sides of its mouth. Keep in mind that the donkey has even stronger jawbones than a man and feeds principally on grass. Some people will have carrot and red beans for lunch and when they defecate the carrot cubes and the undamaged beans will be seen in their feces, just as they were in the plate. You are wasting your time; one is suppose to consume food for nutrients. How then will the nutrients be extracted from the food if they come out the same way they went in? The digestive system is simply being over worked for naught. It takes lots of energy to digest food, especially dead food: after running a 10km marathon one will still be alert and active but if this same individual eats a steak and a diet (die-eat) soda they will feel depleted and sleepy because it takes more energy to digest this food than to run the race. Esophagus The bolus of food will then move along the esophagus through a process called peristalsis, which involves the contraction of the muscular walls of the esophagus above the food thereby pushing it down into the stomach. This is a completely involuntary process since one cannot control the movement of the food as long as it has left the mouth. The esophagus is separated from the stomach by the gastro-esophageal sphincter that controls the entry of food into and out of the stomach. As food is swallowed, this muscle relaxes, forming an opening through which the food can pass into the stomach. Then the muscle contracts, closing the opening to prevent food from moving back into the esophagus. The esophageal sphincter is the first of several such muscles along the alimentary canal. The esophagus is alkaline in nature thus it does not contain the formidable mucus barrier that the stomach contains to protect it from the action of the acid. If the food from the stomach is allowed to regurgitate into the esophagus one would develop an esophageal ulcer. These muscles act as valves to regulate the passage of food and keep it from moving backward. If the food moves backward this can result in the formation of an esophageal ulcer, because the lining of the esophagus is not covered with the thick mucous layer of the stomach. Stomach Theisthe upper abdomen just below the diaphragm. It is a saclike structure with strong, muscular walls. The stomach can expand significantly since the muscular walls of the stomach are very elastic. The stomach has the ability to expand to store all the food from a meal for both mechanical and chemical digestion. The stomach contracts about three times per minute, churning the food and mixing it with gastric juice, thus if the stomach is overtly filled with food this action will be hindered. The gastric glands in the lining of the stomach secrets fluids that contain water, hydrochloric acid, the enzyme pepsin, and mucin ( the main component of mucus). Hydrochloric acid creates an acidic environment within the stomach that is necessary for the proper functioning of the protein digesting enzyme and also kills microorganisms that may have been ingested in the food. Mucin coats the stomach, protecting it from the effects of the acid and pepsin. About four hours or less after a meal, food processed by the stomach, called chyme, begins passing a little at a time through the pyloric sphincter into the duodenum, the first portion of the small intestine. The stomach is very acidic since it contains hydrochloric acid making the environment ideal for the mechanical and chemical breakdown of proteins. The reason why the acid in the stomach does not burn up the stomach is because the lining of the stomach is covered with mucous which is produced by the mucous secreting cells of the stomach. The mucous forms a formidable barrier against the acid and protein digesting enzymes which can damage the sensitive lining. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin stops the production of this mucous barrier leaving the stomach exposed to the acid resulting in the formation of ulcers. Chewing gum is a non-food that is frequently consumed by the young and old. One will find it difficult to acknowledge and implement the concept of chewing ones food at least 45 times before swallowing, but they will chew chewing gum a 1000 times and never swallow. Remember that one chews specifically to swallow and the act of chewing prepares the stomach for food thus there will be acid and enzymes secretions within the stomach. Since the chewing gum will not be swallowed the acid and enzymes will actually act upon the lining of the stomach resulting in the formation of gastric ulcers. It is also important to note that chewing gum is made up of synthetic sugars and flavors with no nutritional value. These sugars will drastically increase the glucose level in the blood increasing the chances of these individuals eventually succumbing to obesity, diabetes and teeth decay. Remember itabout two hours to do its job depending on the type of food one consumes. Papaya might spend only a couple of minutes in the stomach while a piece of steak might remain in the stomach for a couple of days. Your stomach then sends the liquified food on to your small intestine. You start to feel hungry again when your stomach is empty. The stomach muscles churn when the stomach is empty. When this happens, you can hear your stomach growl. This is especially evident when one is fasting, it actually stimulates the secretion of gastric juices that is responsible for the cleaning up of the stomach. Fasting also allows the stomach to rest and promotes the flushing out of the entire digestive tract. That is why we have breakfast (break-the-fast) each morning because one must allow the system to rest through the night and allow the alimentary canal to be cleansed naturally. Why? because the digestive system shuts down while one is resting, that is the principal reason that one would have a bowel movement first thing in the morning. The Small intestine Digestion continues to occur in the small intestine which is about 2.5 cm (1 in) in diameter and fills most of the lower abdomen, extending about 20 feet in length. The small intestine is divided into the duodenum, jejunum, and the ileum. Over a period of up to three hours, peristalsis moves chyme through the duodenum into the next portion of the small intestine, the jejunum, and finally into the ileum, the last section of the small intestine. During this time, bile is secreted into the small intestine through the bile duct. Bile is a bitter, neutral, or slightly alkaline fluid produced by the liver and passed through a duct into the gallbladder, where it is stored and made more concentrated. Bile consists of the cholesterol plaque that has been removed from the arteries and also toxic substances taken from the blood to be excreted through anus. As formed in the liver, bile is a thin, watery fluid to which the gallbladder adds a mucous secretion, forming a complex thickened and stringy substance consisting of salts and bile salts, proteins, toxins, cholesterol, hormones, and enzymes. Bile breaks large fat globules into small droplets, which enzymes in the small intestine can act upon. Foods rich in cholesterol cause concentrated bile, together with secretions from the pancreas, to be discharged into the duodenum to promote digestion. The presence of these bio-chemicals stimulate peristalsis of the intestines and absorption of cholesterol and the disintegration products of average red blood cells. Pancreatic juice, secreted by the pancreas, enters the small intestine through the pancreatic duct. The pancreas is a mixed gland (exocrine and endocrine) lying transversely across the posterior wall of the abdomen. It varies in length from 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 in) and has a breadth of about 3.8 cm (about 1.5 in) and a thickness from 1.3 to 2.5 cm (0.5 to 1 in). Its usual weight is about 85 gm (about 3 oz), and its head lies in the concavity of the duodenum. The pancreas has both an exocrine and an endocrine secretion. The exocrine secretion is made up of a number of enzymes that are discharged into the intestine to aid in digestion. The endocrine secretion, insulin, is important in the metabolism of sugar in the body. Insulin is produced in small groups of especially modified glandular cells in the pancreas; these cell groups are known as the ‘Islets of Langerhans’. The failure of these cells to secrete sufficient amounts of insulin causes diabetes. Pancreatic juice contains enzymes that break down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars, fats into fatty acids and glycerol, and proteins into amino acids. Glands in the intestinal walls also secrete additional enzymes that break down complex carbohydrates into nutrients that the intestine absorbs. Brunner’s glands secrete mucus to protect the intestinal walls from the acid effects of digestive juices. The’s capacity for absorption is increased by millions of fingerlike projections called villi, which line the inner walls of the small intestine. Each villus is about 0.5 to 1.5 mm (0.02 to 0.06 in) long and covered with a single layer of cells. Even tinier fingerlike projections called microvilli cover the surfaces of the villi making the intestines even more effective in the absorption of nutrients. This combination of villi and microvilli increases the surface area of the small intestine’s lining by about 150 times, multiplying its capacity for absorption. Take for instance if one has a 5m long twine that they need to be fitted in a 1m long box. They can fold the twine in a wave like manner hence condensing the twine to fit in the allotted space. Thus if the inner walls of the intestines is stretched it might be 150 times longer than it is perceived to be. Beneath the villi’s single layer of cells are capillaries (one cell thick vessels) of the bloodstream and the lymphatic system. A capillary is one cell thick thus diffusion of nutrients across this barrier is very easy and also the pressure of the blood going through the capillaries must be low enough to prevent rupturing of these capillaries. These capillaries allow the nutrients digested to travel to the cells of the body. Simple sugars and amino acids pass through the capillaries to enter the bloodstream. Fatty acids and glycerol pass through to the lymphatic system. It is important to note that the flora (micro-organisms) of the small intestines will be different from that of the large intestines. The Large Intestine. Afood and digestive juices remains unabsorbed. This residue leaves the ileum of the small intestine and moves by peristalsis into the large intestine. The large intestine forms an inverted U over the coils of the small intestine. It starts on the lower right-hand side of the body and ends on the lower left-hand side. The large intestine is 1.5 to 1.8 m (5 to 6 ft) long and about 6 cm (2.5 in) in diameter. It absorbs about 6 liters (1.6 gallons) daily of water as well as dissolved salts from the residue passed on by the small intestine. In addition, bacteria in the large intestine promote the breakdown of undigested materials and make several vitamins, notably vitamin K, which the body needs for blood clotting. The large intestine moves its remaining contents toward the rectum, which makes up the final 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 in) of the alimentary canal. The rectum stores the feces (waste material) that consist largely of undigested food, digestive juices, bacteria, and mucus until it is eliminated. Then, muscle contractions in the walls of the rectum push the feces toward the anus. When sphincters between the rectum and anus relax the feces pass out of the body. The longer the waste of digestion remains in the large intestines the more water, digestive juices and toxins will be adsorbed from it. This will make the feces very dry and hard making it more difficult to evacuate the bowels. It will lead to constipation and all the complications that follow. The movement of food through the digestive tract must be free and timely to maximize the absorption of valuable nutrients and also to guarantee that the waste leaves the colon before the process of decomposition begins. The process of decomposition involves the production of liquid and gaseous toxins which if absorbed by the colon can result in the weakening of the immune system hence causing disease. Chapter 3 Die-eat and constipation When you are on a diet (die-eat), it symbolizes that something has gone wrong that is being correct. So, why die-eat: eat and you die, when you are supposed to eat and live thus we will use the term live-eat: consumption of live foods like raw nuts, fresh fruits and vegetables. When fresh live foods are consumed this stimulates and revitalizes the system, the nutrients are in an accessible state and thus they can be assimilated and become part of the human anatomy. Raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains are the richest sources of vitamins, proteins, complex carbohydrates, minerals and enzymes. The proper chewing and liquefying of real foods (fruits, nuts, grains, seeds and vegetables) enables the human anatomy to easily assimilate the many valuable nutrients found in food. Enzymes are organic catalyst that increase the rate at which foods are broken down and absorbed by the body. Papain is a protolytic enzyme found in papaya, raw papaya is used as a flesh tenderizer in the cooking of dead animals. The enzyme papain actually begins the breaking down of the dead meat thus making it softer for human consumption. We all know that dead animals are not part of the biblical diet and they actually poison the system. Enzymes are found in plant foods such as fruits and vegetables; they are destroyed when these foods are over cooked. This is why fresh, raw and organic foods should constitute at least 70% of your live-eat. All life on earth emanates from the sun; light from the sun is utilized by the plants in a process called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is theplants and certain other organisms use the energy of sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose. In so doing, photosynthesis provides the basic energy source for virtually all organisms. An extremely important byproduct of photosynthesis is oxygen, on which most organisms depend. This oxygen is used by man and beast to get energy from their food through aerobic respiration, after which carbon dioxide is produced as a byproduct. This carbon dioxide is used by the plants during photosynthesis, maintaining a natural balance of these two gases. A man usually consumes three meals (me-ill) a day and sometimes defecates only once a day or every other day. If each meal weighs 3lbs that will total to 9lbs of food on a daily basis, not even including the junk food and the intoxicating (poisonous) liquor in between and with meals. If he defecates at all he will only release a couple ounces of feces and the balance of the bulk of the decomposing material will remain in the colon. As feces decompose within the colon, many toxins will be produced and absorbed by the colon into the blood stream resulting in auto-toxification (self poisoning). The food we eat (it-meaning anything) on a daily basis contains nutrients but the majority of it is bulk that is suppose to be flushed in a toilet or buried underground. When we eat dead animals the body is treated as a cemetery and we kill ourselves slowly but surely. Constipation is one of the major causes of dis-ease and having frequent bowel movement at least three times will guarantee a better quality of life. Constipation will be presented as hard or loose fecal matter and is attributed to: Too little water Non fiber foods Preservatives (retards digestion) Late eating Junk foods Bad breathing Signs of constipation include gas, bad breath, coated tongue and hard and loose stools.
