Eating the grains became a staple of western diet. Let's look at some benefits of eating freshly ground, genetically not altered, not irradiated, non chemically treated grains. Grain of wheat consists of bran layer, bulk starch and wheat germ. Bran is high in fiber, protein, vitamins and mineral salts. Wheat germ is high in E vitamin, protein and mineral salts. Starch is the fuel for growing plant. This is what white flour is made from. The whole wheat grain contains heart protective vitamins B and E. These are complexes. Not just isolated chemicals. Let's examine the E vitamin complex; the most famous tocopherols act as a preservative to the other factors. Less famous lipositols help brake down cholesterol for production of hormones. Not so famous F1/F2 factors help in calcium transport into the tissues, well known anti-stiffness factor. Xantines assist anti-oxidant factors. E3 factor proved to be effective in healing ulcers and irritation of digestive tract, helps in the sex hormones production. E2 factor improves oxygenation of heart muscle and other muscle tissues, significantly reducing angina pains. Patients often ask, how do I know if I am eating good bread, pastas etc�? Only certain way is when people slowly grind their grains using non metallic grinding surface. Grind only so much of grains you can utilize right away. This flour will have high content of fat soluble E vitamin complex..so it will get rancid in 3-6 days depending on the temperature. Here is little test: hold commercial white bread against your belly button. Let other person touch her/his finger � inch under your chin and test the strength of muscles of your arm. If your arm gets weak, you just did positive muscle test for fat rancidity regarding Dr. Toby Watkinson. If you are curious about irradiation�test the "third eye". If you would like to take more conservative approach, minimize or avoid the grains in your diet. Info taken from Eric Berg, D.C., Royal Lee, DDS.
One of the best living homeopath of our time, George Vithoulkas, has predicted appearance of AIDS ten years before first case was discovered. The very same man is predicting enormous increase in mental diseases for this century. Reasons are many, complex and irreversible. Mankind has lost ancestral essence. Evolving diseases of higher planes of consciousness are now the subject of daily news. Violence, shooting in schools, cruelty, apathy, hostility, poor memory, depression �does it sound familiar? Are we looking at the isolated incidents, or is there any pattern emerging? Ancestral essence is the term used in eastern medicine systems. How does this translate into our language?
Deterioration of human genetic pool. Causes: mal-nurishment, disruption of natural electro-magnetic fields, chemical and radioactive toxicity, Oranur and DOR(deadly orgone). Heart is considered by many cultures as the seat of spirit. It is the most electrically charged organ in our body. Too much of joy or grief can brake one's heart. Hatred and Love change the place in the heart. There are different sound signatures recorded over the heart valves associated with different emotions. All religions emphasize the "sacred heart". Do you know that heart disease and violent deaths together are the favorite way of departure from this world? What to do? Eat what your ancestors ate. Learn. Minimize and avoid toxicity. Avoid el-mag noise. Do not generate Oranur and DOR. Prayer is communication. Communicate. Help others and foremost..enjoy every day. Love yourself. Be good, do good, good will come back to you. Life is good. Info taken from G.Vithoulkas address to Swedish parliament.

(MILL.)Family: N.O. RutaceaDescription Constituents Medicinal Action and Uses ---Synonyms---Toothache Tree. Yellow Wood. Suterberry. ---Parts Used---Root-bark, berries. ---Description---The Prickly Ash (Xanthoxylum Americanum, Mill., X. fraxineum Willd.; X. Carolinianum, Lamb.) is a small North American tree growing in the open air in this country. It has pinnate leaves and alternate branches, which are covered with sharp and strong prickles: the common footstalk is also sometimes prickly, and also the bark. It belongs to the Yellow Wood family (Rutaceae), which all possess aromatic and pungent properties. The berries, growing in clusters on the top of the branches, are black or deep blue and enclosed in a grey shell. The leaves and berries have an aromatic odour similar to that of oil of Lemons, and the berries and bark have a hot, acrid taste. The root-bark and berries are used medicinally, being official in the United States Pharmacopoeia. --
--The barks of numerous species of Xanthoxylum and the allied genus Fagara have been used medicinally. There are two principal varieties of Prickly Ash in commerce: X. Americanum (Northern Prickly Ash) and Fagara Clava-Herculis (Southern Prickly Ashj, which is supposed to be more active. Although not absolutely identical, the two Prickly Ash barks are very similar in their active constituents. Both contain small amounts of volatile oil, fat, sugar, gum, acrid resin, a bitter alkaloid, believed to be Berberine and a colourless, tasteless, inert, crystalline body, Xanthoxylin, slightly different in the two barks. Both yield a large amount of Ash: 12 per cent. or more. The name Xanthoxylin is also applied to a resinous extractive prepared by pouring a tincture of the drug into water. The fruits of both the species are used similarly to the barks. Their constituents have not been investigated, but they apparently agree in a general way with those of the bark. The drug is practically never adulterated. The Northern bark occurs in commerce in curved or quilled fragments about 1/24 inch thick, externally brownish grey, with whitish patches, faintly furrowed, with some linearbased, two-edged spines about 1/4 inch long. The fracture is short, green in the outer, and yellow in the inner part. The Southern bark, which is more frequently sold, is 1/12 inch thick and has conical, corky spines, sometimes 4/5, inch in height. Xanthoxcylin is included in the United States Pharmacopceia for the preparation of a fluid extract, the dose of which is 1/2 to 1 drachm.
--It acts as a stimulant - resembling guaiacum resin and mezereon bark in its remedial action and is greatly recommended in the United States for chronic rheumatism, typhoid and skin diseases and impurity of the blood, administered either in the form of fluid extract or in doses of 10 grains to 1/2 drachm in the powdered form, three times daily. The following formula has also become popular in herbal medicine: Take 1/2 oz. each of Prickly Ash Bark, Guaiacum Raspings and Buckbean Herb, with 6 Cayenne Pods. Boil in 1 1/2 pint of water down to 1 pint . Dose: a wineglassful three or four times daily. On account of the energetic stimulant properties of the bark, it produces when swallowed a sense of heat in the stomach, with more or less general arterial excitement and tendency to perspiration and is a useful tonic in debilitated conditions of the stomach and digestive organs, and is used in colic, cramp and colera, in fever, ague, lethargy, for cold hands and feet and complaints arising from a bad circulation. A decoction made by boiling an ounce in 3 pints of water down to a quarter may be given in the quantity of a pint, in divided doses, during the twenty-four hours. As a counter-irritant, the decoction may be applied on compresses. It has also been used as an emmenagogue.
The powdered bark forms an excellent application to indolent ulcers and old wounds for cleansing, stimulating, drying up and healing the wounds. The pulverized bark is also used for paralytic affections and nervous headaches and as a topical irritant the bark, either in powdered form, or chewed, has been a very popular remedy for toothache in America, hence the origin of a common name of the tree in the States: Toothache Tree. The berries are considered even more active than the bark, being carminative and antispasmodic, and are used as an aperient and for dyspepsia and indigestion; a fluid extract of the berries being given, in doses of 10 to 30 drops. Xanthoxylin. Dose, 1 to 2 grains.

Weston Price, D.D.S. wrote remarkable book: Nutrition and Physical Degeneration. Mercury toxicity is enormous problem. Most people have acidic saliva. Normal pH in saliva should be 7,4-7,8. In this range digestive enzymes are active. With the decrease of beneficial, good fat in diet saliva turns acidic. Chemistry 101: put acid and metal together, they will react. Two or more different metals in electrolyte do generate current. It can be very minimal, but highly disruptive to physical organs or tissues governed by acupuncture meridian. Like having unwanted electro-acupuncture. There are good, conscious dentists. Find them, talk to them, get help from them. Digestion is the area where most of chronic diseases have their roots. Digestion starts in oral cavity.
