Excerpts from The Garden Diet

People say, "Why don't you drink milk?". I say do the math. When you drink the milk of a cow, you have to understand one thing; that milk is precisely formulated for an animal that's going to weigh 2000 lbs. and have a brain half the size of a cantaloupe. Nature is very precise in the way she formulates things. So therefore the calcium ratios, everything that goes to make up the body of a cow, is encoded in that milk.

Poison is a funny thing. I don't care whether you're doing drugs, or whether you're doing white sugar, or whether you're doing Colt 45 malt liquor. Once you take a poison into your body that poison starts to push against and react within your body. Your body builds up a tolerance. The tolerance pushes back against the poison to counteract the toxins. And if you remove the poison then the tolerance pushes against you and it gives you the feeling of a craving for the poison.

So when you first start out, you can do anything and still feel good. But as you reach age 30 and go into the 40's, everything you've been doing before then begins to build up, accumulates, and you start to have symptoms. But these symptoms are of such a major national epidemic level that nobody realizes that they are symptoms caused by what they are eating or by their bad habits. It's just considered that "oh you're getting old", "oh this is normal in a person your age". It's not normal. We have accelerated our aging process.

There are so many different diseases that spring from this one source. So the thing is not to go to the hospital and have them cut on you and operate on you for that specific disease. The thing is to go to the source. You go to the source of the disease. And the source is in the colon. You clean your diet up and you'll feel better. Guaranteed. 100%

Understand aging. Scientists have not been able to find one reason why the human body should die. The human body is a self perpetuating, self-recycling, perfect mechanism that could theoretically live forever.

--

Now, nothing is more addictive than cooked food. We are a nation that is addicted. Its almost impossible, one of the hardest battles that you will ever have in your life is when you say "OK, I'm not going to eat any more cooked food". You will fight a battle. And if you win that battle, you literally get to go back to the garden. You get to go back to the garden. And until you realize our proper place in the order of things, until you come to an awareness of how our bodies are designed, and what is the best possible food that we can take into us, you will be sick. You will have chronic debilitating diseases stalking you all the days of your life. There's no getting away from that.

--

You can drink a whole pot of coffee and still be dehydrated. Your body needs water so that it can properly cleanse. It will go to every single cell in your body and it will, through a process of osmosis, withdraw the toxins out of that cell and flush them out of your body. Beer will not do it. Wine will not do it. Coffee will not do it. Java and Mocha will not do it. And Sprite will definitely not do it! They're lying to you! Obey your thirst. Get some water.

--

Because when you put that food into the fire it loses its ability to nourish you. So therefore you have to overeat. You're eating and eating and eating because your body needs nourishment its not getting from the food that you eat so therefore its sending you signals saying, "Hey, I'm still hungry, feed me"

You will lose the muscles that were made from low grade protein, which are bulky muscles. However, they are not as strong and don't have the same elasticity as raw muscle. Its a whole different quality of muscle. And when you first go raw you lose that. It drops away. You go down to nothing. And then you have to eat a high quality of protein that you get from nuts, that you get from raw organic vegetables. And believe it or not, fruit has a lot of protein in it too. You can build muscle mass with fruit juice, if it is alive. Not pasteurized juice but juice that you squeeze yourself, like orange juice. Even on a juice fast, working out you will get bigger. So the trick is to maintain your workout.

--

Say you have a craving for french fries or potato chips. This means you have a craving for something oily and salty. So we replace these junk foods with nuts and seaweed. The seaweed that I find the closest to the salt craving is Wakame or Bull Kelp. By mixing these with almonds, you are getting a tasty protein, and the seaweed has all the minerals and trace elements that you require on a daily basis, and you are taking something that was an unhealthy craving and turning it into a rich nourishing treat that is very good for you.

Customer Reviews:

Clarissa Jacques  (Friday, 21 July 2006)
Rating: 5
This comes highly recommended and rightly so, full of straightforward information and tips for the new raw foodist. The information about raw nutrition is conveyed in a concise, convincing yet honest way. The author has clearly dedicated his life to discovering the wonders of raw food and his insights are logical and inspirational. It comes with a wide range of recipes, including transitional ones, which are simple to follow plus being quick and easy to prepare. The author and his family seem to prefer dishes that are simple yet very tasty, I would recommend this book for busy people and for those raw foodist who may not have yet invested in a food dehydrator. We are particularly partial to their breakfast "Oatmeal Treat" made of oats and orange juice, aswell as the nutloaf which was superb. At $10 you simply can't go wrong!
