Most of the people in the America are doing their best to lose weight. They go on diets, eat low carbs, take diet pills, buy diet books, and join fitness clubs or work out as best as they can.
Guess what? They still put on more weight and obesity rules!
Years and years ago we were advised to follow the four basic food groups: meat, dairy, grains and fruits and vegetables. Maybe if the first two were eliminated people would lose lots of weight.
What’s interesting is that these food groups were sponsored by the American Dairy Association, so it’s not surprising that dairy took its place on the list. Too bad they never said that dairy was cooked up to 500 degrees leaving only liquid fat.
Let me put an essential into its proper perspective. Because of doing “Health Talk” radio shows and being forced to get a Masters degree in Nutrition by the medical doctors that used to call in all of the time on my show asking “what my credentials were”, I discovered something amazing. That being that the human form is specifically and anatomically designed to eat plant-based foods. Also, in various scriptures, I found information about offering only plant-based food to God. Why? To take away the karma of killing the plants, grains, seeds, fruits and vegetables. In essence, the human form is the only form that bears karma. All others, no karma!
Getting back to the beginning of this article, no one out there really knows anything when it comes to medicine, health, disease, illness, sickness or obesity. But, they certainly know how to profit off of obesity and sickness.
So, why do people put on weight? For openers, the could have a low metabolism that doesn’t burn off fat quickly. Then, what if you have is an underactive thyroid gland that can turn the food that you eat into fat? Guess what? The fluoride in the drinking water creates a hypoactive thyroid. It’s no accident that the USA is loaded with fluoride in their drinking water.
What if you have a pancreas that doesn’t work like it should? It seems that fat people have a pancreas that secretes more insulin than normal? And, why would that happen? How about food additives and refined sugar? Oh yeah, the good ole USA foods have more refines sugars in them than any other country!
You do know that your liver is a detoxifying organ and it being clogged crates weight gain? Guess what causes liver problems? OTC drugs, Rx drugs, chlorine, fluoride, food additives, processed foods, fast foods, white flour, refined sugar, artificial sweeteners, monosodium glutamate (MSG), and preservatives. Thank you Big Food and Big Pharma!
Let me put something about fluoride to you. It involves corruption all over the place. Back in 2010 there was a fluoride labeling hearing at the Hawaii State Capitol with 425 people there.
One of the guys that was testifying about the “benefits” of fluoride was the Hawaii Dental Chief, Dr. Mark Greer. In his testimony he said that the toxicology tests proved that fluoride was safe an effective. I followed him in testimony.
I said “we were very honored to have a man like Dr. Greer as our Dental Chief. In fact, he missed his calling. He should have been President of the Liars Club”. After the 425 people stopped laughing I said, “Uh oh, I just called our Dental Chief a liar in front 425 potential witnesses. Is there a lawyer in the house? I just opened a classic Defamation of Character lawsuit and if you’re here, I beg you, take the case. Because when we go to court he will have to present the toxicology reports he ‘s talking about that do not exist.” The bill got killed and I never got sued! Only one area of Hawaii got fluoridated. The military area. Keep’em brain dead so they will follow orders!
If you think the MD’s or the food companies or the government care about the people, think again!
People overweight have a problem with digestive enzyme production. Small production, higher weight gain. Thank you Big Food for all your added additives, yeast extract (MSG) and antibiotics, which kills the friendly flora.
Also, most overweight people eat even when they are not hungry, because of stress, emotional eating or food cravings caused by the toxins you put in your body. And, that’s just for openers. Add a large appetite, hormonal imbalance due to excess toxins in the body or way low exercise, eating larger portions than you should, consuming “diet foods” like “low fat”, “sugar free”, “low calorie”, “lite”, “low carbs”, “lean”, and the list goes on.
The bad news is that all those “ “ listings are loaded with artificial sweeteners, high amounts of sugar, or chemical additives that cause weight gain. And, let’s not forget eating right before going to bed and, the growth hormones put into the meat and dairy, and the fact that the human form has an enormous convoluted digestive tract that makes digestion and elimination SLOW, lets all those poisons sit in the body for seven days.
The food industry is made up of publically traded corporations having one objective: “Gimmie da money, honey”! The only way to obtain that is by selling cheap foods at high prices. The people running the companies only care about their profits, If they can get away with fraud, lies and cheating, they will laugh all the way to the bank. Take a moment and think about Monsanto/Bayer and their GMO nightmare!
When a food company does what it does to make their products cheaper, it becomes more synthetically toxic. And, how do they do that? More toxic chemicals! The food companies have chemical laboratories where thousands of chemical additives are researched and rested. And, by the way, the labs are kept secret and have more security than the CIA headquarters.
What’s their objective? Make the food addicting to create weight gain and increase your appetite. Remember that your “buddies”, aspartame and high fructose corn syrup, are your nightmares! And like the wonderful execs of the tobacco industry, everything is denied. But it will make you fatter and sicker.
The bottom line is that more profit is the goal. So you MUST eat more and more and more.
Knowledge of the truth is the best food you could ever eat, because it will allow you to eat real foods you can enjoy, never go hungry, and live a long, thin life!
Aloha!

Just to put things in perspective, after I graduated from Weequahic High School and before going to Seton Hall University, I had a part-time job working for a butcher. I was the delivery guy and occasionally had to go to the slaughterhouse to pick up products for the store. Needless to say, I had no consciousness nor awareness, as change never came then despite the horrors I witnessed on an almost daily basis.
After graduating with a degree in accounting from Seton Hall, I eventually got married and moved to a town called Livingston. Livingston was basically a yuppie community where everyone was judged by the neighborhood they lived in and their income. To say it was a "plastic" community would be an understatement.
Livingston and the shallowness finally got to me. I told my wife I was fed up and wanted to move. She made it clear she had to be near her friends and New York City. I finally got my act together and split for Colorado.
I was living with a lady in Aspen at the end of 1974, when one day she said, " let's become vegetarians". I have no idea what possessed me to say it, but I said, "okay"! At that point I went to the freezer and took out about $100 worth of frozen, dead body parts and gave them to a welfare mother who lived behind us. Well, everything was great for about a week or so, and then the chick split with another guy.
So here I was, a vegetarian for a couple weeks, not really knowing what to do, how to cook, or basically how to prepare anything. For about a month, I was getting by on carrot sticks, celery sticks, and yogurt. Fortunately, when I went vegan in 1990, it was a simple and natural progression. Anyway, as I walked around Aspen town, I noticed a little vegetarian restaurant called, "The Little Kitchen".
Let me back up just a little bit. It was April of 1975, the snow was melting and the runoff of Ajax Mountain filled the streets full of knee-deep mud. Now, Aspen was great to ski in, but was a bummer to walk in when the snow was melting.
I was ready to call it quits and I needed a warmer place. I'll elaborate on that in a minute.
But right now, back to "The Little Kitchen". Knowing that I was going to leave Aspen and basically a new vegetarian, I needed help. So, I cruised into the restaurant and told them my plight and asked them if they would teach me how to cook. I told them in return I would wash dishes and empty their trash. They then asked me what I did for a living and I told them I was an accountant.
The owner said to me, "Let's make a deal. You do our tax return and we'll feed you as well". So for the next couple of weeks I was doing their tax return, washing their dishes, emptying the trash, and learning as much as I could.
But, like I said, the mud was getting to me. So I picked up a travel book written by a guy named Foder. The name of the book was, "Hawaii". Looking through the book I noticed that in Lahaina, on Maui, there was a little vegetarian restaurant called," Mr. Natural's". I decided right then and there that I would go to Lahaina and work at "Mr. Natural's." To make a long story short, that's exactly what happened.
So, I'm working at "Mr. Natural's" and learning everything I can about my new dietary lifestyle - it was great. Every afternoon we would close for lunch at about 1 PM and go to the Sheraton Hotel in Ka'anapali and play volleyball, while somebody stayed behind to prepare dinner.
Since I was the new guy, and didn't really know how to cook, I never thought that I would be asked to stay behind to cook dinner. Well, one afternoon, that's exactly what happened; it was my turn. That posed a problem for me because I was at the point where I finally knew how to boil water.
I was desperate, clueless and basically up the creek without a paddle. Fortunately, there was a friend of mine sitting in the gazebo at the restaurant and I asked him if he knew how to cook. He said the only thing he knew how to cook was enchiladas. He said that his enchiladas were bean-less and dairy-less. I told him that I had no idea what an enchilada was or what he was talking about, but I needed him to show me because it was my turn to do the evening meal.
Well, the guys came back from playing volleyball and I'm asked what was for dinner. I told them enchiladas; the owner wasn't thrilled. I told him that mine were bean-less and dairy-less. When he tried the enchilada he said it was incredible. Being the humble guy that I was, I smiled and said, "You expected anything less"? It apparently was so good that it was the only item on the menu that we served twice a week. In fact, after about a week, we were selling five dozen every night we had them on the menu and people would walk around Lahaina broadcasting, 'enchilada's at "Natural's" tonight'. I never had to cook anything else.
A year later the restaurant closed, and somehow I gravitated to a little health food store in Wailuku. I never told anyone I was an accountant and basically relegated myself to being the truck driver. The guys who were running the health food store had friends in similar businesses and farms on many of the islands. I told them that if they could organize and form one company they could probably lock in the State. That's when they found out I was an accountant and "Down to Earth" was born. "Down to Earth" became the largest natural food store chain in the islands, and I was their Chief Financial Officer and co-manager of their biggest store for 13 years.
In 1981, I started to do a weekly radio show to try and expose people to a vegetarian diet and get them away from killing innocent creatures. I still do that show today. I pay for my own airtime and have no sponsors to not compromise my honesty. One bit of a hassle was the fact that I was forced to get a Masters Degree in Nutrition to shut up all the MD's that would call in asking for my credentials.
My doing this radio show enabled me, through endless research, to see the corruption that existed within the big food industries, the big pharmaceutical companies, the biotech industries and the government agencies. This information, unconscionable as it is, enabled me to realize how broken our health system is. This will be covered more in depth in the Introduction and throughout the book and when you finish the book you will see this clearly and it will hopefully inspire you to make changes.
I left Down to Earth in 1989, got nationally certified as a sports injury massage therapist and started traveling the world with a bunch of guys that were making a martial arts movie. After doing that for about four years I finally made it back to Honolulu and got a job as a massage therapist at the Honolulu Club, one of Hawaii's premier fitness clubs. It was there I met the love of my life who I have been with since 1998. She made me an offer I couldn't refuse. She said," If you want to be with me you've got to stop working on naked women". So, I went back into accounting and was the Chief Financial Officer of a large construction company for many years.
Going back to my Newark days when I was an infant, I had no idea what a "chicken" or "egg" or "fish" or "pig" or "cow" was. My dietary blueprint was thrust upon me by my parents as theirs was thrust upon them by their parents. It was by the grace of God that I was able to put things in their proper perspective and improve my health and elevate my consciousness.
The road that I started walking down in 1975 has finally led me to the point of writing my book, “A Sane Diet For An Insane World”. Hopefully, the information contained herein will be enlightening, motivating, and inspiring to encourage you to make different choices. Doing what we do out of conditioning is not always the best course to follow. I am hoping that by the grace of the many friends and personalities I have encountered along my path, you will have a better perspective of what road is the best road for you to travel on, not only for your health but your consciousness as well.
Last but not least: after being vaccinated as a kid I developed asthma, which plagued me all of my life. In 2007 I got exposed to the organic sulfur crystals, which got rid of my asthma in 3 days and has not come back in over 10 years. That, being the tip of the iceberg, has helped people reverse stage 4 cancers, autism, joint pain, blood pressure problems, migraine headaches, erectile dysfunction, gingivitis, and more. Also, because of the detoxification effects by the release of oxygen that permeates and heals all the cells in the body, it removes parasites, radiation, fluoride, free radicals, and all the other crap that is thrust upon us in the environment by Big Business.
