Is Nutritional Intelligence Lost?

We are living in a time that makes great demands upon our efforts to keep healthy through a well managed dietary program. With all the devitalized and synthetic foodstuffs at our disposal, it is often very difficult to obtain the necessary natural foods that will keep our bodies in good health. Millions of hard earned dollars are being wasted by way of our mouths. All of us are hungry for those necessary requirements that our God designed our bodies to have, to maintain a healthy, vigorous and responsive body. The producers of our foods today find it difficult to be competitive and still grow foodstuffs without commercial fertilizers and sprays. That is why I have been stressing to grow your own food. I am still working on David and my chickens to be. We have become a apathetic society. Fresh, ripened foods, in their natural state, possess the highest nutrtive value and this cannot be improved by preserving, processing, heating, or fermenting. These only tend to destroy its value. Boiled vegetables that have been peeled and the water thrown away have no taste. Therefore, something must be done to make them palatable. That is why I try to stay away from processed foods from the grocery store. They are doctored up by mixing sugar, salt, MSG, margarine and other non mentionables. We polish the rice, we remove the germ and the husk to make rifined flour for baking, we refine the sugars, we remove the skins, seeds and cores of apples and pears, and we peel the potatoes and scrape the carrots. Then, because these devitalized and tampered foods cannot supply our bodies with what it needs and actually takes nourishment from it, and depletes our store of nervous energy, we take sedatives, tranquilizers or aspirins, which eventually makes our condition worse.
Much praise can be given to the mother, or any other person who realizes that our bodies must not be defiled, and who puts into these temples food that will radiate a natural healthy beauty.
