They use formaldehyde to decaffeinate coffee and they say that's why decaffeinated coffee drinkers have higher rates of pancreatic cancer. 

While mild doses of caffeine can cause a slight rise in blood pressure and pulse, it's use as a mild neurostimulant and have tendencies for cerebral blood flow to the brain. In low to moderate doses can be known as beneficial. Why anyone would consume decaf coffee is a mystery to me. In my opinion it's worthless. 

Question: Is caffeine a neurostimulant? 

 

  1. Yes

    According to 5 sources
     
    Caffeine is a commonly used neurostimulant that also produces cerebral vasoconstriction by antagonizing adenosine receptors. Chronic caffeine use results in an adaptation of the vascular adenosine receptor system presumably to compensate for the vasoconstrictive effects of caffeine.
    Caffeine is the most widely used neurostimulant in the world and it has been shown that 79 percent of the United States population drinks coffee or other beverages containing caffeine at least occasionally. This high incidence of use is significant because caffeine can affect the results of several common diagnostic tests, including MRI.

HFCS leads to obesity ... haven't you noticed that 40% of Americans are obese? What do you think ccauses that? They used to tell us it was fat, so 50 years ago they came out with margarine, low fat diets and products using artificial fat substitutes, etc. Yuck, never ate margerine.

 But now they know it's partially high carb intake.

Pesticides are poison, they interfere with digestion. If they kill bacteria on the food, what do you think they do to the intestinal flora - the good bacteria in your gut?

Calcium propionate is BAD - also put in lots of foods. So many chemicles are in processed foods - and people just pick them off the shelf with examining what they are actually putting in their body - if  is healthy or harmful ... "I don't care ... it tastes good to me!" Yeah 20 years later you are being rushed to emergency in a diabetic coma or heart attack.

Obesity, diabetes wasn't much of a problem 50 years ago and now it is. 20x as much suger is used in processed foods and drinks. Look at how many forms of sugar are in the product too. They use several so that it isn't the #1 ingredient - add them up and sugar is. I re 600k die every year from heart attacks, 600k from cancer, hundreds of thousands from dozens of diseases that can be avoided by healthier eating habits and exercise

 

Just about every bread on the shelf has HFCS and hydrogenated oils/trans fats. >>> obesity. Some products are avoiding them, a new healthy trend. But manufacturers arent required to list everything in their products. So even if we check, we cant be sure what's in there.

None of the oils are good for cooking because they have lower heat tolerance, burn and so all fried foods are bad. They ONLY OIL that should be used for cooking at high heat is unrefined, cold pressed, organic Coconut oil. Even Olive oil has low heat tolerance, burns and changes into fats that are difficult to digest so are stored.

There are so many toxic substances in processed foods, too numerous to mention. So jere is an article listing them.

https://mphprogramslist.com/50-jawdroppingly-toxic-food-additives-to-avoid/

 If it has more than 5 ingredients, put it back on the shelf. Matter of fact, half of the food in the aisles is unhealthy. Shop on the perimeter of the store, fresh fruits and veggies, meats. Make your own bread, your own drinks with fresh fruits, teas with less sugar or stevia or no sweetener. 

Bacteria and viruses flourish in a body filled with sugar. When you are sick - do not  consume any sugar, it will prolong your Illness. When is the last time you were sick and the doctor told you to avoid sugar? Probably never. 

If people would just eat healthy foods, exercise, cut sugar and most processed foods, take supplements, drink alkaline water and get out in the sun, we could bankrupt the AMA and Big Pharma.

I have been to the doctor only a half dozen times in 40 years and those times for antibiotics, Im 64. My mother is 87, eats healthy has been to the doctor 3x in 30 years. Once for a broken wrist, once for pneumonia and then she fell and had contusion on her ribs.

If you eat everything in the grocery store without restraint and think since it has been approved by the FDA, it's okay, you are setting yourself up for health issues if not soon, later on in life.

Yes, all sugars lead to obesity.  HFCS is a sugar.  If we banned HFCS, and replaced it with beet sugar, or cane sugar, the results would be the same.

Pesticides are poison, yes.  Do you want no food?  Because no pesticides means no food.  There is no farm anywhere in America, that does not use pesticides.  Do you want the tree sap poison that kills everything, and lasts for decades, or the human created pesticide that evaporates in 3 months, so that it is gone before you get the food?

As for everything else....

If you want to eat coconut oil and unprocessed wheat cut from the stalks... that's fine.

I will say this.  I'm amazed at how many pagan people who eat whatever they want, don't spend their lives worried about all these things, and live into their 80s and 90s.  How does that happen?

My Christian parents are in their late 70s right now.  Both in perfect health.  Both never cared about all this stuff.   Never worried about calcium propionate.   Never fried stuff up with organic Coconut oil.  Never wasted their time making their own bread.  Never drink alkaline water.  How did that happen?

Both of my grand mothers lived into their 80s, and neither worried themselves with such things.

If God didn't want caffeine in coffee He would not have put it there. 

Or cocoa beans, tea leaves, and the South American shrub known as, mate. There are other natural stimulants, but safety concerns are noted with them. Coca, ephedra, gotu, chia, khat, and a few others. These would be the leaves and seed pods from plants and/or shrubbery.

USDA certified grown farms cannot use synthetic pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers.

So there are natural pesticides like spearmint oil, citronella and quartz sand. Iron, potassium, beeswax, are also nlm toxic to humans. Certain  flowers planted in gardens ward off bugs as well.

Your grandmothers probably ate less processed foods than you realize. Your parents are in their 70's and maybe they will live an avrerage lifespan - which is now 78 -80 or longer. But just think if they always ate good nutritious food and exercised, how much longer they might live?  God created man to live up to 120 years in this fallen world.

Why would they want to live longer?

That's an odd statement in my mind.   You realize that after this is Heaven.   Heaven....  the perfect place, where there is nothing but perfection?

You want to be here another 40+ years?   Why?

Honestly, if you are telling me that eating that food is going to keep me on this Earth 40 more years, that is the best reason ever, to go to the nearest McDonald's for dinner.

I don't get it.  Not one thing about this planet, is going to hold the smallest candle to going to Heaven.  Why would we want to stay here longer?

I'm honestly if you want all those things, great.  If you want to eat that kind of food, that's fine.  But the motivation is to stay on this Earth longer.. I don't get that.  What for?   Man I'm ready to go NOW, and I'm only 43.  I can't imagine any reason I'd want to be here another 80 years.  Good Heavens, no.  NO no no.

I agree with heaven being the perfect final resting place. I can't wait either. I just want to live healthy while I'm here. Besides, good nutrition and exercise does not determine the length of your life. Kobe Bryant was probably pretty healthy. I always told people to honor their parents, that they may live long lives. 

But if I do live to be 80, I want to look 60 and be able to run, swim and think clearly without any medications. This is my temple for now and I intend to live and eat the food God provided. WWJD - Eat at McDonald's or over Ron's house?

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
