88.4.1 Should We Be Vegetarians At All?
After allofthisdiscussion ofvegetarianism andthedifferent types ofvegetarians,
weprobably should askthequestion: Isthevegetarian dietreally thatsuited after allfor
optimum health?
Ifweconsider thevegetarian diet tobechiefly based upon vegetables (greens,
grains, stalks, tubers, roots, etc.), then wecananswer: No,thevegetarian dietisnotthe
best diettopromote health andwell-being. Theonly dietthatcantruly insure thehigh-
estlevel ofhealth isonethatisbased primarily onthefoods ofourbiological heritage:
Fruits.
Man isnotsuited toliveongrasses, stalks, greens, androughage thatmake upthe
greater part ofthevegetable category.These may beadditions tohisnatural diet, but
such vegetables alone cannot give thehighest-quality nutrients andfuelthatwerequire.
Fruits with their abundance ofminerals, vitamins, natural sugars, andamino acids can
furnish uswith allofourneeds. They arenontoxic (something thatvegetables cannotmake aclaim to)andthey may eaten with relish with nopreparation (unlike grains, tu-
bers, and hard roots).
Since T.C.Fryhasaddressed thisquestion sowell inthesupplemental material fol-
lowing thislesson, we’ll endthisdiscussion bysimply saying thatthetypical vegetarian
dietasenvisioned bythemajority ofpeople does notmeet allthecriteria foroptimum
well-being. Wehasten toaddthatthisistruenotbecause avegetarian dietisdeficient or
lacking, butbecause fruits alone should form themajority offoods eaten, andnotveg-
etables.
Yetforitsshortcomings, thevegetarian dietisvastly superior tothetypical Amer-
ican dietandisunreservedly recommended asatleast afirst step forthose seeking to
improve their health. Let’slook atjustsome ofthemore obvious benefits ofavegetarian
diet.
88.3.2 The Beneficial Aspects of Vegetarianism
Arecent study comparing diets anddeaths from heart disease inseven countries
showed thatthose people who atethehighest amounts ofanimal products (meat, dairy,
eggs, etc.) alsohadthehighest death rates. Finland, which hadthehighest amount ofan-
imal foods, topped thelistinheart disease. TheUnited States, second largest consumer
ofanimal products, alsotook second place indeath rateduetoheart disease. TheJapan-
ese,which (had thelowest incidence ofmeat eating, alsohadthelowest amount ofheart
disease.
Vegetarians notonly avoid heart disease, butalso have lower blood pressure. A
Boston study showed thatvegetarians who atelittle ornoanimal products (dairy,eggs)
had lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels than their meat-eating counterparts.
IntheJournal oftheAmerican Medical Association,apublication noted foritscon-
servative position ontheroleofdietinhealth anddisease, Dr.W.A.Thomas reported
that“avegetarian dietcanprevent 90% ofourthrombo-embolic disease (blood-clotting)
and97% ofourcoronary occlusions.” Inhisbook, Heart Attack, YouDon’ tHave toDie,
Dr.Christian Barnard cites several medical studies which prove that“people who eata
diethigh inanimal products (meat, eggs, milk, etc.) have ahigher incidence ofcoronary
heart disease than those who do not.”
Notonly dovegetarians sufferfrom fewer incidents ofheart disease andhigh blood
pressure, they faremuch better when itcomes tocancer.Several epidemiological studies
andsources have shown avery strong correlation between theincidence ofcancer ofthe
colon and meat consumption.
One ofthese researchers says: “Because eating ofvegetarian foods, freeofanimal
fats, results inashorter transit time andprobably theproduction oflesscarcinogens, the
incidence ofcancer ofthecolon should besubstantially lessforvegetarians than forom-
nivores.” Hethen goes ontomake thisvery revealing statement: “Atthepresent time,
there have been nocases ofsuch cancer among those who aretotal vegetarians (veg-
ans).”
Cancer,heart disease, high blood pressure—the listofmeat-related diseases andill-
nesses—grows andgrows. Thetruehealth benefits ofvegetarianism, however,must be
experienced tobefully appreciated. Notonly does physical well-being increase dramati-
cally along with new energylevels onavegetarian diet, butemotional stability andmen-
tal equanimity are much more likely to occur when meat is no longer eaten.
Thevegetarian diethassomany benefits thatfewever think thatitcould have pit-
falls or disadvantages. Y et there are aspects of vegetarianism that you should avoid.
88.3.3 The Vegetarian Trap
Vegetarianism hasbeen vigorously promoted bymany health schools. And forgood
reason, when youconsider thealternatives ofblood-letting, murdering, andcorpse-gor g-ingthatmeat eating offers. Yetisvegetarianism without itsdrawbacks, shortcomings, or
traps fortheunwary? Wemust answer: No.There arepitfalls forthehealth seeker who
turns only tovegetarianism forhisanswers. Let’slook atsome ofthetraps thatvegetar-
ians must avoid.
88.3.4 Vegetarianism: Not Far Enough
Whenever someone asks mewhat Natural Hygienists orLife Scientists believe, I
jokingly answer that“we’re somewhere totheleftofvegetarianism.” Thepoint Itryto
make isthatwhile some people consider vegetarians “radical” health seekers, Natural
Hygienists view them as only beginners on the path to radiant health and well-being.
Vegetarianism isonly thefirst step toabetter diet, although itisanimportant step.
The major trap forvegetarians isthatsince they have changed their daily dietsorad-
ically from thestandard meat-centered American diet, they often feelcomplacent and
self-satisfied. They feelthatthey have done enough toimprove their dietsimply because
they have stopped eating meat.
Unless vegetarians give upallanimal products, eatamajority oftheir food uncooked
andunprocessed, andpractice food combining rules, they will bedoomed toamuch
lower level ofhealth than those who follow theteachings ofNatural Hygiene andLife
Science. Inaddition, vegetarians must also embark upon aregular program ofexercise
and fasting to complete the detoxification process of their bodies.
Vegetarianism isunequivocably recommended andurgedforevery human being
alive today,andtheworld willdoubtless beamuch better place ifallgave upslaughter-
ingandkilling forfood. But, becoming avegetarian isonly avery small step forward
from themasses ofsick anddiseased meat eaters. Tobecome truly well, truly healed,
andfirmly established ontheroad tototal health, youmust gobeyond vegetarianism.
Donotbecome smug, self-complacent, orself-satisfied simply because younolonger
eatmeat—you stillhave along way togobefore your lifestyle isinharmony with the
universe. This isthefirst trapthatvegetarians must avoid: thebelief thatvegetarianism
alone is enough to insure health and well-being.
88.3.5 Vegetarians People Love to Hate
Another trapthatvegetarians must avoid isthefeeling ofseparateness andaloofness
thatsometimes accompanies achange indiet. Here’ saconversation Ioverheard while
shopping at a supermarket in California:
“Hey,look atallthose idiots waiting atthemeat counter fortheir poison,” asmirking
man said to his wife.
“Yuck. Ican’tbelieve people eatbaby animals andfeed them totheir kids too.Ican
smell theblood from here. I’vegottogetoutofhere. Ican’tbelieve people aresostupid
about eating decaying meat,” his wife agreed with him.
Ipassed bythem andasked, “Youmust bevegetarians. How long have youstopped
eating meat?”
Thesmart smiled proudly.“Iquitsixmonths ago. Mywife atefishonly forthelast
two years, but now she’ s a veggie, too.”
The couple deserved


arms, legs, andbody through squats, etc.Pushups andchinups areespecially good at
developing theupper torso while weights ontheshoulder while doing squats produce
general body musculature otherwise.
98.3.7 Coordinative and Training Exercises
Notonly should youhave avaried regimen ofexercises, butyoushould adopt ex-
ercises thatcoordinate thewhole body.Forinstance, skipping rope isnotonly agood
warmup exercise, butitdoes marvels fordeveloping body coordination. There aremany
other coordinative activities which you should cultivate in yourself and clients.
98.3.8 Accelerating Activities for More Benefit in Less Time
Asmentioned, intensified activities such asjumping jacks, sprinting andfaster pac-
ingorregular exercises place agreater demand upon thebody thatcauses thesame ex-
ercise benefits toaccrue inafraction ofthetime. Itbears repeating thatperhaps afew
hundred yards ofsprinting isworth amile ofjogging though, tobesure, ajogshould be
accelerated torunning andhuffing andpuffing all-out sprinting attheend. Anintense,
continuous demand upon thebody forsixminutes ormore generates themany benefits
heretofore cited. Ofcourse, itisadvisable toprecede intense sustained activities with 15
to20minutes ofstretching, warmup calisthenics, andmoderate exercises such asswim-
ming, jogging, and biking.
98.3.9 Gardening and Constructive Activity
While allvigorous activity isconstructive ifitdoes notinjure, there aresome that
arevery beneficial. Gardening, which creates afood supply,issoul-satisfying aswell
asphysically/ mentally constructive. Isuggest thatyouandyour clients start gardening,
orcharding, andbeautifying your grounds asmuch aspossible. Remember,even indoor
gardening isconstructive, forplants remove some aerial poisons while reoxygenating
the air.
98.3.10 Hobbies and Work that Keep Us Vigorously Active and Fit
There aremany hobbies thatrequire much andvaried physical exertion, especially
shop work involved inmaking things. Yourandyour clients’ inclinations will dispose
youtoahobby.Keep inmind thatahobby should never bepermitted tosubstitute for
exercise. Itshould beinaddition! Both thehobby andtheexercise gobetter with each
other.
98.3.11 Games to Play for Exercise of Self, Mate, and Friends
Few exercises areasbeneficial associal exercises. Asgregarious beings, humans
thrive best while interacting with each other.Thus games liketennis, badminton, vol-
leyball, baseball, andother vigorous noncontact sports areideal forms ofrecreation.
Play thatmeets both physical andsocial needs hasacertain advantage over solo effortsthough, tobesure, solo efforts permit ofcogitation andreflection thatbuild character
and strength of purpose.
98.4. Questions & Answers
Will exercise correct hiatal hernia?
Ahiatal hernia isanopening inthediaphragm thatpermits organs oneither
side toprotrude through. InDr.Shelton’ sbook, Exercise, welearn how tocope
with abdominal hernia very slowly through graduated exercises. Idon’tseeanyrea-
sons why relaxed musculature ofthediaphragm should beanylessresponsive toan
exercise program. Over theyears I’ve received letters from individuals who were
once overweight andsaid thatthedrastic weight reduction experienced inunder-
taking aHygienic regime ofrawdietandexercise also overcame their diaphragm
problems. How long have you had this problem?
Nearly three years.
How much do you weigh now?
242.
Areyouwilling toundertake arawfood dietary andexercise program kicked
off with a fast to help restore normalcy?
If that’s what it takes.
How doIgetmyfour-year-old sontobeactive? He’s way overweight, being
nearly 70pounds. Wehave noneighboring children. Hejust sitsand watches TV
all day long, eating freely of his father’s snacks. What should I do?
Isuggest thatyouunplug theTVandremove father ’ssnacks. Isuggest thatyou
and/oryour husband take theyoungster forwalks, play ballwith him, andother-
wise gethim involved. Itmight even payforyoutotransport him tothenearest
children’ splayground where hecanparticipate actively with other active children,
though, tobesure, atthatweight he’sinnocondition todomore than walk. Isug-
gest thatyouputhim onanall-raw dietofmostly fruits aswell astake him for
walks. That, more than anything, willhelp himlose weight tothepoint hecanbe
more active. What heneeds more than anything isparental participation aswell as
identification with peers. Praise foractivity accomplishments will encourage him
towinmore praise. There’ smuch youcando.Explore your circumstances. Aruin-
edchild bespeaks parent failure. I’mhappy youwant toremedy thissituation, and
I’m sure the desire will give rise to a solution.
You sound likeexercise willcreate Utopia forus.I’mabout sixty pounds over-
weight. I’ve read lotsthat says exercise would help megetdown toanormal weight
andthat would beheaven forme,butI’ve heard very little about alltheother good
things you say. Aren’t you putting us on just to get us to do this thing?
Allthebenefits I’ve spoken ofhave been gleaned from researches andpub-
lished literature during mypast 14years asastudent ofthehealth scene. And I’ve
experienced many ofthebenefits cited formyself. Why should Ilead youon?Why
nottryavigorous, regular exercise regime andfindoutforyourself.” Open upyour
ears andeyes tothose who do.You’ll besurprised that, indeed, exercise isoneof
the primary keys to a personal Utopia.Can Ilose weight byexercise alone? How soon canIexpect togofrom 227to
125?
Yes,youcanlose weight byexercise alone, butthere aremany considerations.
First, ifyouexercise extensively even without achange ofdiet, your hunger willbe
considerably lessened asaresult; you’ll lose weight notonly because youeatless,
butbecause you’ll burn upmore calories. However,Idoubt thatyou’ll ever lose
102pounds unless yougettothepoint where you’re exercising atleast twohours
perday,something youcando.And then ittakes more than ayear.I’ve read ofa
case where ameat-and-potato-diet gallostover 125pounds within ayear-and-a-
halfandbecame amarathon runner asaresult. Butit’sbetter toedge your dietover
tomore andmore rawfoods inconjunction with your exercise program. Allraw
willoccasion drastic weight losswithout much regard toyour exercise program and
food intake, though anexercise program andlowered food intake arealways con-
structive.
How doyou expect metoexercise ifInever feellike it?You’ve said that you
really shouldn’t exercise if you feel against it. I never feel like it.
I’ve said thatexercise makes youfeelgood. I’ve said thatoldpractices make
youfeelprogressively worse. How doyouexpect tofeellikeexercising unless you
start exercising? Juststart exercising regardless ofhow youfeel. Doitbecause you
know youmust. Start offbyfasting foraweek ortwo. Goonanall-raw diet. Start
walking vigorously andwork thatuptoajog,andthen punctuate itwith running
andsprinting. The first thing youknow,you’ll belooking forward tothose daily
stints. You’ll findyour exercising period tobemoments thatgive yousome time to
cogitate, andyou’ll discover you’re cogitating more intense andproductive while
outjogging andrunning, even justwalking. That which activates your body tends
also toactivate your mind. Doitandyou’ll berewarded. Don’ tgetroped inona
“which comes first, chicken ortheegg” deal. Justdoitbecause youknow youhave
to force yourself to.
What you’ve said means everyone could become areal super person. Ifthat’s
true, why isn’t exercise pushed by the powers that be in this country?
Ifyou’ve read themedia, youfind thatthepowers thatbeadvise youtoseea
physician before undertaking anyexercise program. And aphysician isaslikely as
nottoadvise against it.Further,there’ slotsofadverse publicity about exercise and
lotsofpooh poohing ofit.But, also, there’ smuch publicity andmuch urging toex-
ercise. Exercise isgetting abetter andbetter press. Butthere aremany factors that
militate against exercise, notably thesickdiathesis thatderives from your debilitat-
ingandslavish addiction toenergy-draining foods. Pushing junk foods isfarmore
profitable forindustry (thepowers thatbe)asawhole than pushing fitness. After
all,thejunk food industry; themedical trades; thedrug industry; theliquor,beer,
wine, softdrink, cigarette, andother industries constitute apowerful quorum that

thinking has been and how much power lies in making it clear. If you ar e
married, try suddenly to call to mind the face of your spouse. Y ou may be
shocked to r ealize how difficult this is. What you immediately call to mind is
an idea of your spouse, and this idea has the wavering shape of a shadowy
dream. Concentrate on making his or her face as clear in your mind as a
photograph. Bend the entir e effort of your attention towar d this end.
Gradually the pictur e will clear. Soon you will see that face befor e you,
animated, alive, vibrant, so that you feel certain that if you r eached out you
could touch a cheek with your fingertips. Don’ t be surprised that evening if
your husband or wife says to you, “I was thinking about you all day today.”
This is not legend or superstition or wishful thinking. When we deal with
the mind we are dealing with the most significant thing in life. There are
undreamed-of powers in consciousness, and they have not even been
tapped. Our first fumbling attempts to understand the paranormal will be
very amusing to researchers a hundred years from now. The awakening to
telepathy and clairvoyance and precognition have barely jarred the door
into an enormous storehouse of fantastic powers and perceptions. W e take
our first step on the proper path when we realize the original power of mind
over matter and how our thoughts influence the world we live in. Once we
truly have apprehended the tremendous force that propels a mental image to
become a physical fact, then we see that we must dedicate our ef forts to
becoming clear and concise thinkers rather than rushers-around-in-the-
world.
 Psychic Imbalance

We must learn to visualize with complete clarity, so that an image called up
in mind exists with the same solidity, color, and dimension as one in the
physical world. Research conducted into the content of dreams has revealed
that some people dream in black and white, while others dream in color.
Others dream in pantomime; still others with full sound ef fects. Some
people’ s dreams are populated with folks without faces; and in some
people’ s dreams it is always night; in others it is always day. Such research
has proved pretty well that emotional blocks in the subconscious restrict us
from completely visualizing things in our minds. W e might attempt to
envision ourselves successfully completing a task which we desire to do,
but no matter how hard we try to focus our inner attention, we never can
quite see ourselves in that position. If it would finally involve a change of
residence, for example, we might report that we are able to see the new
home and everything in it but are unable to visualize ourselves there.
It is the subconscious that blocks us from such visualization. Some fear or
hostility or resentment has given us a deep mental block about moving and
forbids the picture from entering our minds and thereby bars the actual
event from happening in the physical world. It is no easy matter for us to
overcome this subconscious censoring of our thoughts. It represents a
wrong self-identification, a psychic imbalance. This psychic imbalance is
universally caused by the centering of consciousness in the ego rather than
in the deeper regions of being. Those of us who allow our surface self to
control our life are in the grip of a Lilliputian ghost. W e eventually will
become bound up mentally by thousands of little prompters that proceed out
of our subconscious. It is they that give form and substance to our ego, the
thing we regard as ourselves, which is never ourselves at all but only the
limitations that we have accepted and come to regard as real.

Subconscious Pr omptings
Modern psychoanalysis, in or der to test the psychic imbalance of the
individual, uses a test devised by the Swiss psychologist Hermann
Rorschach, in which the subconscious pr eoccupation of a patient is
diagnosed fr om spontaneous images which they see in complex ink blots.
Since the ink blots ar e haphazar d and multiform, it follows that the images
that the patient sees in them r epresent the kind of thing that their
consciousness is habitually focused upon. In other wor ds, the test pr ovides
a key to the thoughts which occupy an individual’ s mind and gives the
psychologist a method of interpr eting neur osis. The pr emise that diagnosis
is based upon is that each of us sees in all things the thoughts that, a priori,
occupy our minds. Thus life itself turns out to be nothing mor e or less than
a gigantic Rorschach test. Shape and form and substance have infinite
meaning and infinite possibility. To the individual beholder each assumes
color and quality dir ectly taken fr om the thoughts that occupy their
consciousness. When we choose the thoughts we think, we choose our lives.
The fact of the matter is that very few people are free to exercise choice in
their thinking because the bulk of their thought erupts from pain-insistent
memories in the subconscious. They are not free because they have wrongly
identified themselves. Their sense of self is primarily the memories of
events and relationships. In consequence, they assume themselves to be a
changing thing, an ego, a sense of self built upon dimly remembered and
barely perceived relationships. The ego thinks always in response to the
subconscious. Only the great self, the sense of self free of the limitations of
the ego, is able to originate thought or to be receptive to it in an unbiased
manner. We all put too much value on the ego. Personality represents for us
both a fascination and a delusion. By its very meaning, personality is
restricted to the individual and thus represents a limited sense of self. Only
from the wider and broader standpoint of the Secret Self is it possible for
the individual mind to orient itself correctly with life. Thus it is able to
grasp meanings and relationships from a lar ger and more encompassing
standpoint and to know by immediate perception rather than by reason and
deduction.
 Instinctive Performance

The ego thinks from a small standpoint in the center. It thinks outward. It
seeks to know by groping into the unknown, attempting to rationalize what
it finds there. Since infinite space surrounds it, it is impossible for it ever to
grow into great understanding. Since what it thinks is colored by what it
already knows, and since what it knows is based upon a strictly personal
and infinitesimal interpretation, it therefore, by its very nature, cannot ever
arrive at true knowledge. Before we can be truly wise, before we can arrive
at our birthright of power and understanding, we must in some degree shuck
off the trappings of the ego and take on a wider kind of consciousness.
Instead of being central thinkers, we must learn to be peripheral or outer
thinkers. W e must learn to allow thought to develop in us under the
impulsion of something outside of and greater than ourselves. W e must
learn to be able to do things without focusing our attention upon them. W e
must learn to perform them through an instinctive understanding of their
true nature and the job to be done.
The ego prevents us from performing in this manner. To be self-conscious is
to be fearful and restricted. The instinctive and natural performer thinks
with their outer and wider mind. Those who are enrapt in consideration of
their ego and sense of self are bound up in fear and tension during the
simplest of tasks. That which we do well we do not think about. W e simply
perform by grace of our outer and wider mind. When we lose our contact
with this mind, we fall from grace with a bang; for all by ourselves, focused
upon each little movement, we cannot perform the simplest of tasks.

The centipede was happy quite
Until a toad in fun
Said, “Pray, which leg goes after which?”
That worked her mind to such a pitch,She lay distracted in a ditch,
Considering how to run.
— KA THERINE CRASTER

There seems to be absolutely no limit to the feats we can perform when we
are able to grasp them with our outer or peripheral mind. Someone stands
on the forefinger of one hand atop a hundred-foot pole. Another walks a
tightrope across the chasm of Niagara Falls. Another springs from a board
and turns three somersaults in the air before landing on their feet. Still
another juggles a dozen balls at a time. W atching such performances, we are
astounded. How is it possible, we ask ourselves, for a human being to do
such things? It is possible because they have mastered the knack of
performing without thought. They have learned to shut of f the thinking of
their central self and to stand outside, as it were, grasping their whole action
as a continuous thing, seeing it as a single flowing, unbroken movement. As
a consequence, arms and legs move, muscles coordinate, ener gy is
expended, all at the behest of a complete picture held by their wider mind.
They perform from the spine, unthinkingly, and respond only to the image
of what they want to do, just as someone else might walk down the street,
thinking only of where they want to go and never of the act of putting one
foot in front of the other.

	concludes	his	article	with	this	paragraph:

“What	strikes	me	as	remarkable	about	the	whole	affair	is	the	ease	with	which

Jenner	got	his	theory	accepted...It	is	true	that	medical	research	in	the	19th

century	was	not	what	it	is	today,	but	even	then	the	picture	of	the	whole	of	the

College	of	Physicians	and	Surgeons	swallowing	the	theory	of	an	unqualified

country	apothecary,	based	on	one	totally	unreliable	experiment,	seems	scarcely

credible...I	should	imagine	that	he	was	one	of	those	unscientific	researchers	who

are	always	on	the	lookout	for	facts	to	fit	their	theories,	instead	of	first	making	of
	their	facts"

Dr.	J.	W.	Hodge,	of	New	York,	had	extensive	experience	with	smallpox

epidemics	and	vaccination	epidemics	also.	Out	of	his	wealth	of	knowledge	on

this	subject	he	wrote	on	all	its	phases.	In	a	published	article	dealing	with	"Some

of	the	False	Claims,	Erroneous	Deductions	and	Self	Contradictions	of	the	of	the

Vaccination	Dogma"	he	stated:

"At	first	it	was	confidently	asserted	that	vaccination	would	exterminate

smallpox.	That	claim	has	been	abandoned	by	Jenner’s	most	enthusiastic

followers	and	the	claim	that	revaccination	will	exterminate	smallpox,	was	set	up

in	its	stead.	The	proof	that	the	theory	and	the	practice	espoused	by	Jenner	have

been	everywhere	abandoned	is	found	in	the	fact	that	all	vaccinists	now	admit	the

necessity	of	revaccination,	but	do	not	agree	on	the	period	that	may	be	allowed

between	successive	repetitions	of	the	‘protective’	rite.

"If	you	ask	how	often	it	must	be	repeated,	you	will	be	confronted	with	a	babel	of

discordant	replies	You	can	choose	any	answer	you	please	from	‘once	only’	of	the

original	Jenner	up	to	an	indefinite	repetition,	‘until	it	no	longer	takes’,	as	now

prescribed	by	the	Chicago	‘Vaccination	Creed’"

This	"Vaccination	Creed"	formulated	by	the	Chicago	Health	Department	in	1902

stated	"True	vaccination	repeated	until	it	no	longer	"takes"	always	prevents

smallpox.	Nothing	else	does."

Regarding	this	fantastic	assertion,	Dr.	Hodge	has	this	to	say:

"The	above	dogmatic	deliverance	aptly	illustrates	the	recklessness	of	the

disciples	of	Jenner	in	making	bold	asseverations	in	favor	of	vaccination	which

scorn	the	slightest	attempt	at	verification."

The	frequent	and	variegated	vaccinations	given	to	our	service	men	give	us	a	full

scale	picture	of	what	"repeated	vaccination	until	it	no	longer	takes"	will	do	to	the

body	and	brain.	Thousands	of	our	healthiest	men	at	the	prime	of	life	were

rendered	insane	and	millions	of	others	were	infected	with	disease	of	every

description	including	the	very	ones	they	were	"protected"	against.	A	typical

example	is	that	of	our	Philippine	soldiers.	According	to	our	military	records:

"Every	enlisting	soldier	is	subjected	to	vaccination	at	the	time	of	being	recruited,
	and	revaccinated,	not	only	on	entering	the	US	Army,	but	also	as	often	after	that

as	seems	advisable	by	the	Army	medical	authorities	"	Chief	Surgeon	of	the	U.	S.

Philippine	Army,	said	in	his	report,	regarding	the	high	incidence	of	smallpox

among	his	vaccinated	men	"I	can	say	that	no	Army	was	ever	more	thoroughly

looked	after	in	the	matter	of	vaccination	than	ours.	AND	REVACCINATION

MANY	TIMES	REPEATED	WENT	AS	REGULARLY	AS	THE	DRILLS	AT	A

REGULAR	POST."	(emphasis	supplied)

Yet,	the	records	show	a	steady	increase	of	smallpox	among	these	men:

-In	1888—there	were	76	cases	of	smallpox	and	21	deaths	from	this	cause.

-In	1890—there	were	207	cases	of	smallpox	and	78	deaths	from	this	cause.

-In	1900—there	were	246	cases	of	smallpox	and	113	deaths	from	this	cause.

246	cases	of	smallpox	and	113	deaths	among	the	thoroughly	and	frequently

vaccinated	men	would	hardly	bear	out	the	claim	of	the	Chicage	Creed,	that	says:

"Repeated	revaccination	always	prevents	smallpox	and	nothing	else	does."

Jenner	and	his	followers	had	committed	themselves	to	the	view	that	Vaccination

gave	lifelong	immunity	to	smallpox.	Therefore,	they	asserted	that	revaccination

was	not	merely	unnecessary,	but	impossible."

Dr.	Pearson,	one	of	Jenner’s	strongest	supporters	said,	"If	a	child	can	be

revaccinated,	then	it	can	take	smallpox;	therefore,	vaccination	is	not	an

equivalent	for	smallpox	and	where,	then,	is	the	good	of	it?"	(Medical	Gazette,

1831)

Dr.	Pearson	also	stated,	"It	has	been	found	that	a	person	whose	constitution	has

distinctly	undergone	the	vaccine	disease	is	in	the	future,	unsusceptible	of	that

same	disease."	(I	wonder	where	he	found	that	remarkable	person.)

Here	is	an	authority	on	the	Jenner	theory	who	promises	that	if	the	vaccination

"takes"	then	a	person	cannot	ever	have	another	vaccination	that	will	"take".	This

fortunate	person	is	then	supposed	to	be	immune	to	both	smallpox	and

vaccination	reactions	(vaccina).
	The	cases	of	smallpox	and	vaccination	diseases	and	deaths	continued	to	increase

in	large	numbers	among	Jenner’s	prize	patients	so	he	and	his	supporters	had	to

retreat	behind	a	bulwark	of	excuses.	As	usual,	these	failed	to	shield	them	from

the	rise	of	public	indignation,	so	Jenner	had	to	discard	the	impossible	claim	of

lifetime	immunity	in	order	to	hold	onto	the	vaccination	fantasy	at	all.

Although	they	had	previously	taught	that	revaccination	would	cancel	any	hope

of	protection	from	vaccination,	they	nevertheless,	changed	their	policy	and

advocated	revaccination.	They	had	learned,	undeniably,	that	vaccination	would

not	work	and	were	to	learn	later	that	revaccination	was	even	more	disastrous	but

it	was	continued	in	spite	of	this.

In	1860	the	Encyclopedia	Britannica	(Eighth	Edition)	stated:

"Nothing	is	more	likely	to	prove	hurtful	to	the	cause	of	vaccination	and	render

the	public	careless	of	securing	to	themselves	its	benefits,	than	the	belief	that	they

would	require	to	submit	to	revaccination	every	10	to	15	years."

Years	later,	the	Eleventh	Edition	of	the	Encyclopedia	shows	the	change	of	policy

when	it	states:

"It	is	desirable	that	the	operation	(vaccination)	should	be	repeated	at	the	age	of

from	7	to	10	years,	and	thereafter,	if	it	be	possible,	at	intervals	during	life."	(The

more	often	the	vaccinations,	the	greater	the	revenue	to	the	doctors	and	vaccine

promoters.	This	is	the	prime	consideration	in	this	business.)

 like
to live in the moment and for the moment. T o became reacquainted with
sensations last experienced as a carefree child. T o again feel  the pleasure
of being alive.
I became more human and more humane while living in that island
paradise. I also became a better cell biologist. Almost all of my formal
scientific training was in sterile, lifeless classrooms, lecture halls, and
laboratories. However, once I was immersed in the Caribbean’ s rich
ecosystem, I began to appreciate biology as a living, breathing,integrated system rather than a collection of individual species sharing a
piece of the earth’ s turf.
Sitting quietly within garden-like island jungles and snorkeling among
the jeweled coral reefs gave me a window into the island’ s amazing
integration of plant and animal species. All live in a delicate, dynamic
balance, not only with other life forms but with the physical environment
as well. It was life’ s harmony—not life’ s struggle—that sang out to me
as I sat in the Caribbean Garden of Eden. I became convinced that
contemporary biology pays too little attention to the important role of
cooperation because its Darwinian roots emphasize life’ s competitive
nature.
T o the chagrin of my U.S. faculty colleagues, I returned to W isconsin
a screaming radical bent on challenging the sacred foundational beliefs
of biology. I even began to openly criticize Charles Darwin and the
wisdom of his theory of evolution. In the eyes of most other biologists,
my behavior was tantamount to a priest bursting into the V atican and
claiming the Pope was a fraud.
My colleagues could be for given for thinking a coconut had hit me on
the head when I quit my tenured position and, fulfilling my life’ s dream
to be in a rock ‘n’ roll band, took of f on a music tour. I discovered Y anni,
who eventually became a big celebrity, and produced a laser show with
him. But it soon became clear that I had a lot more aptitude for teaching
and research than I did for producing rock ‘n’ roll shows. I wound down
my midlife crisis, which I’ll describe in more agonizing detail in a later
chapter, by giving up the music business and returning to the Caribbean
to teach cell biology again.
My final stop in conventional academia was at Stanford University’ s
School of Medicine. By that time I was an unabashed proponent of a
“new” biology. I had come to question not only Darwin’ s dog-eat-dog
version of evolution but also biology’ s Central Dogma, the premise that
genes control life. That scientific premise has one major flaw—genes
cannot turn themselves on or of f. In more scientific terms, genes are not
“self-emer gent.” Something in the environment has to trigger gene
activity. Though that fact had already been established by frontier
science, conventional scientists blinded by genetic dogma had simply
ignored it. My outspoken challenge of the Central Dogma turned me intoeven more of a scientific heretic. Not only was I a candidate for
excommunication, I was now suitable for burning at the stake!
In a lecture during my interview at Stanford, I found myself accusing
the gathered faculty, many of them internationally recognized geneticists,
of being no better than religious fundamentalists for adhering to the
Central Dogma despite evidence to the contrary. After my sacrilegious
comments, the lecture room erupted into shouts of outrage that I thought
meant the end of my job application. Instead, my insights concerning the
mechanics of a new biology proved to be provocative enough to get me
hired. W ith the support of some eminent scientists at Stanford, especially
from the Pathology Department’ s chairman, Dr. Klaus Bensch, I was
encouraged to pursue my ideas and apply them to research on cloned
human cells. T o the surprise of those around me, the experiments fully
supported the alternative view of biology that I was postulating. I
published two papers based on this research and left academia, this time
for good. (Lipton, et al, 1991, 1992) I left because, despite the support I
got at Stanford, I felt that my message was falling on deaf ears. Since my
departure, new research has consistently validated my skepticism about
the Central Dogma and the primacy of DNA in controlling life. In fact,
epigenetics, the study of the molecular mechanisms by which
environment controls gene activity, is today one of the most active areas
of scientific research. The newly emphasized role of the environment in
regulating gene activity was the focus of my cell research twenty-five
years ago, long before the field of epigenetics was even established.
(Lipton 1977a, 1977b) While that is gratifying for me intellectually, I
know that if I were teaching and researching in a medical school, my
colleagues would still be wondering about those coconuts because in the
last decade I have become even more of a radical by academia’ s
standards. My preoccupation with a new biology has become more than
an intellectual exercise. I believe that cells teach us not only about the
mechanisms of life, but also teach us how to live rich, full lives.
In ivory tower science, that kind of thinking would no doubt win me
the wacky Dr. Dolittle award for anthropomorphism or more precisely
cytopomorphism—thinking like a cell, but for me it is Biology 101. Y ou
may consider yourself an individual, but as a cell biologist, I can tell you
that you are in truth a cooperative community of approximately fifty
trillion single-celled citizens. Almost all of the cells that make up yourbody are amoeba-like, individual or ganisms that have evolved a
cooperative strategy for their mutual survival. Reduced to basic terms,
human beings are simply the consequence of “collective amoebic
consciousness.” As a nation reflects the traits of its citizens, our human-
ness must reflect the basic nature of our cellular communities.
L i v i n g  t h e  L e s s o n s  o f  C e l l s
Using these cell communities as role models, I came to the conclusion
that we are not victims of our genes, but masters of our fates, able to
create lives overflowing with peace, happiness, and love. I tested my
hypothesis in my own life after a nudge from my audiences, who asked
me why my insights hadn’ t made me any happier. They were right: I
needed to integrate my new biological awareness into my daily life. I
knew I had succeeded when, on a bright Sunday morning in the Big
Easy, a cof fee-shop waitress asked me: “Honey, you are the happiest
person I ever did see. T ell me child, why are you so happy?” I was taken
aback by her question, but nevertheless I blurted out, “I’m in Heaven!”
The waitress shook her head from side to side mumbling, “My, my,” and
then proceeded to take my breakfast order. W ell, it was true. I was happy,
happier than I had ever been in my life.
A number of you critical readers may rightly be skeptical of my claim
that Earth is Heaven. For by definition, Heaven is also the abode of the
Deity and the blessed dead. Did I really think that New Orleans, or any
other major city, could be part of Heaven? Ragged homeless women and
children living in alleys; air so thick that one would never know if stars
really existed; rivers and lakes so polluted that only unimaginable
“scary” life forms could exist in them. This Earth is Heaven? The Deity
lives here? He knows  the Deity?
The answers to those questions are: yes, yes, and I believe I do. W ell,
to be completely honest, I must admit that I don’ t know all of the Deity
personally, for I don’ t know all of you. For God’ s sake there are over six
billion of YOU. And to be more fully honest, I don’ t really know all of
the members of the plant and animal kingdom either, though I believe
they also comprise God.
In the immortal words of T ool T ime’ s T im T aylor: “Baaaaack the truck
up! Is he saying that humans  are God?”W ell … yes I am. Of course I am not the first to have said that. It is
written in Genesis that we are made in the image of God. Y es, this card-
carrying rationalist is now quoting Jesus, Buddha, and Rumi. I have
come full circle from a reductionist, scientific take on life to a spiritual
one. W e are made in the image of God, and we need to put Spirit back
into the equation when we want to improve our physical and our mental
health.
Because we are not powerless biochemical machines, popping a pill
every time we are mentally or physically out of tune is not the answer.
Drugs and sur gery are powerful tools when they are not overused, but
the notion of simple drug fixes is fundamentally flawed. Every time a
drug is introduced into the body to correct function A, it inevitably
throws of f function B, C, or D. It is not gene-directed hormones and
neurotransmitters that control our bodies and our minds; our beliefs
control our bodies, our minds, and thus our lives

A FOUR-WEEK EXAMPLE OF THE FITNESS LIFE-STYLE • 193 AN ALL-FRUIT DAY FOR MAXIMUM WEIGHT
LOSS!
DAY SIXTEEN—TUESDAY
You have now detoxified to the point where an All-fruit Day will be comfort
able and energizing. Pace your fruit intake however you like. Have 1 or 2 large
fruit meals during the day, after juice in the morning (it is easier to stay on
fruit all day if you consume nothing but fresh juice in the morning), or eat
smaller amounts of fruit at regular intervals throughout the day. Eat only when
you are hungry. Since fruit supplies the body with the fuel it needs without a
great energy expenditure, you actually may not be particularly hungry. You
will unquestionably feel light and energetic.
BREAKFAST:
Fresh juice
LUNCH:
Fruit
DINNER:
Date or Strawberry Shake, * and more fruit, 1 Vi to 2 hours later, if
desired. You may substitute a Vegetable-fruit Platter (see page 156) for
the shake, if desired.
DATE OR STRAWBERRY SHAKE 3 Min.
1 cup Fresh Almond Milk (see below)
2 frozen bananas
6 pitted dates or 6 fresh or frozen strawberries
Place almond milk and fruit in blender. Blend until thick and creamy. If
you like a thinner shake, use Wi bananas. Makes 1 large shake.
NOTE: From now on, if you like these shakes, keep frozen bananas on
hand in freezer.
These shakes are nutritious and an excellent substitute for ice cream
shakes or protein drinks. Children love them.
194 • FIT FOR LIFE FRESH ALMOND MILK. 10 Min.
V* cup raw almonds
1 cup cold water
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup (optional)
Nut and seed milks were used for centuries in Europe, Asia, and by the
American Indians, and they are still used throughout the world as easily
digestible substitutes for cow's milk. Those made from almonds or sesame
seeds are excellent sources for easily assimilated calcium and they are deli
cious!
Blanch almonds by adding them to large skillet containing Vi inch boil
ing water, allowing them to sit in water as it boils for about 30 seconds.
The skins will loosen noticeably. Drain and pop skins off. Place blanched
almonds in blender with 1 cup cold water. Run blender at high speed for
2—3 minutes until a thick white milk has formed. If you are going to
drink almond milk straight, strain it through a fine sieve. If there is a lot
of pulp, you have not blended long enough. If you are going to use the
milk in a shake, there is no need to strain.
Shakes are an ideal "smoothing out" food after an All-fruit Day. We do not
recommend having a shake on any day when you are also having cooked food.
DAY SEVENTEEN—WEDNESDAY
BREAKFAST:
Same as Day One.
LUNCH:
Fresh fruit or carrot juice (optional)
Energy Salad (see page 149), or Nuts and Cukes (see page 162)
DINNER:
Fresh Vegetable Juice cocktail, if desired (see page 152)
Tortilla Soup*
New York Goodwich (see page 159), or Perfect Corn on the Cob (see
