 of fructose and glucose in large amounts either produces overweight
or over-acidity. In addition it increasingly leads to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
Nevertheless, conventional nutritionists use this to argue that sugar is not really harmful because its G.I. is as low or even lower than
bread. I would not be surprised if it eventually turns out that the G.I. was developed on the instigation of the sugar industry. Most
foods listed in the G.I. are processed carbohydrates that I do not advise to eat anyway. If you select your carbohydrates according to
the following rules than you do not need to be concerned with the G.I.:
•   Eat mainly legumes and vegetables
•   Eat (fresh) fruits on their own and not with or after meals
•   Minimise sweetened food, grains and cereals
PROTEINS
Proteins from animal sources are vastly oversupplied in traditional Western diets. Initially this causes stimulation - you feel energetic
and even aggressive - but later in life it leads to enzyme exhaustion, putrefaction of bowel contents, toxemia, breakdown of the
immune system, gout and cancer. Protein deﬁciency, on the other hand, causes slow growth, fatigue and debility.
Good sources of protein are grass juice, fresh or dried, pollen, spirulina, chlorella, almonds, lentils and other legumes, traditionally
fermented soy products, sunﬂower and sesame seeds (tahini), raw egg yolk, naturally fermented and unpasteurized goats’  cheese
and yogurt, ﬁsh, (organic) liver and other organ meats.
Use red meat and predatory species of ﬁsh in small amounts only. Nuts are generally difﬁcult to digest, except if soaked. Soybeans
and broad beans should not be eaten raw except if sprouted or fermented. Cooked soybeans may cause indigestion, except if
discarding the soaking and cooking water. Also processed soy products are not recommend because of their high content of anti-
nutrients and genetic engineering, although traditionally fermented soy foods are ﬁne.
The best sources of protein are grass juice fresh or dried, sprouted seeds, pollen, spirulina and chlorella or other edible algae.
Individual protein requirements differ. More is needed during pregnancy, in childhood and during convalescence. With advancing age
and degenerative diseases use any ﬂesh food in an easily digestible form, such as broth of ﬁsh, liver or meat. It is good to combine
legumes with starches as for exam ple, lentils with brown rice. Howev er, mixing different proteins to obtain improved amino-acid
compositions is generally not required. Preferably have ﬂesh foods no more than once a day and avoid products from feedlots or
containing growth promoters.
Vegetarianism
Most individuals can remain healthy on a diet with moderate amounts  of ﬂesh food, or as vegetarians without eating ﬂesh food.
However, a strict vegan diet without  any animal products is advisable only if there are no obscure health problems, because some
people require certain nutrients to be supplied from animal sources (such as taurine, carnitine or vitamin B12).
Vegetarian Hindus may obtain vitamin B12 from stale water, bacteria in soil and cow dung as well as from insects in fruits and
vegetables. When fruit bats were raised hygienically on clean fruits and water, they became seriously vitamin-B12 deﬁcient. Spirulina
is very high in vitamin B12 and recommended as a source of this vitamin for vegans.
Generally, sensitive people have weak adrenal glands and feel more energetic and emotionally balanced by using ﬂesh foods. If
these are excluded, they should have a high intake of spirulina, bee-pollen, legumes and complex carbohydrates (slow-digesting
food) in their diet.
People with alkaline and insensitive conditions, on the other hand, beneﬁt from a vegetarian diet, possibly with some seafood and
poultry. A fruitarian diet, based on tree fruits, nuts and berries, is suitable as a temporary or extended cleansing diet for alkaline,
insensitive individuals.
Many vegetarian diets are not condu cive to good health because of a high intake of sweet foods, milk products, wheat, oats and anti-
nutrients in a soy-based diet. Furthermore, minerals are better absorbed if the meal includes ﬂesh food or gelatin. A diet high in nuts,
oily seeds and cereals can cause a deﬁciency in lysine (an essential amino acid) and predispose you to herpes and other viral10/30/24, 11:33 AM Health-Science-Spirit - Food Groups & Diets
https://health-science-spirit.com/Healing_Foods/Food-Groups-and-Diets.html 2/3infections; this can be rectiﬁed by using more legumes. Individuals with blood group O are basically meat-eater types and have great
difﬁculty with a grain-based vegetarian diet, while those with blood group A can usually live very well as vegetarians.
FATS AND OILS
Oils are best supplied by eating products in which they naturally occur. Most recommended is extra-virgin olive oil. Otherwise use
cold-pressed oil in brown-glass bottles. Avoid 'light' oils because they are more highly reﬁned and also oils sold in plastic bottles. Oils
can leach chemicals out of plastic. Store oils in a cool, dark place and in full containers. Refrigerate oil in daily use, except varieties
that easily solidify.
Preferably, use only small amounts of saturated fats that are hard at room temperature, such as fat in hard cheese, beef and mutton,
except if these fats have not been heated. Unpasteurised butter and cream actually are health foods, and also unheated coconut oil
and palm oil are very good. Avoid all chemically hardened (hydrogenated) fats, including margarine. Use mainly oils high in oleic acid,
such as olive oil, almond oil and, to a lesser extent, peanut oil. Peanut  oil helps against arthritis but is not suitable for insensitive,
alkaline people in whom it may contribute to the formation of fatty deposits in the arteries.
Use polyunsaturated oils (high in linoleic acid) sparingly if you are sensi tive. They easily oxidize, especially if the vitamin E intake is
low, and then contribute to the development of cancer. However, it is recommended to use more ﬁsh oils or linolenic acid, as in
linseed, together with adequate vitamin E. You may obtain ﬁsh oils by eating raw ﬁsh, when buying oils, such as cod liver oil, the label
should state that it has been cold-pressed, and preferably that it has been processed under nitrogen. The stronger the taste or smell,
the more rancid is it.
People who are insensitive and alkaline (for example, cardiovascular diseases), but who also suffer from obesity, skin and liver
diseases should be even more careful than others in avoiding hydrogenated and highly heated fats and oils. They are advised to use
lecithin and vitamin E supplements. Really beneﬁcial are only fats and oils, including saturated fats that have not been heated. Cod-
liver oil rubs are beneﬁcial for fat malabsorption.
FRUITS AND VEGET ABLES
While vegetables are good for everyone, the more the better (except if sprayed with pesticides), fruits must be treated with caution by
those with overacidity and a poor blood-sugar regulation.
Use mainly fruit and vegetables in season that are grown in your district. Include plenty of green-leaf vegetables. Gradually increase
the amount of fresh raw vegetables, as in salads. Cook or grate root vegetables with their skins, and use the cooking water. Red
beets are highly recommended for their positive ef fect on cell respiration and energy production.
Fruits, especially acid fruits and berries, are excellent for those with alkaline and insensitive body conditions, including cardiovascular
diseases and often cancer and diabetes.
Those who are overacid, on the other hand (usually with low blood pressure, allergy problems, lack of energy and tendency to colds)
easily become even more acid on fruit. They may minimize fruit and mainly use subacid varieties or, better still, neutralize acid fruit as
explained in The Acid-Alkaline Balance. Also they may tolerate sweet fruit, such as bananas, better if they are not fully ripe. Oily fruit
such as avocados are usually well tolerated.
