Eat well, live simply, be healthy

Our body is the only material thing we possess from birth to death. I aim to take better care of my body than any other material possession! No other material possession can give me more pleasure or more misery.

I am deeply indebted to many people who have loved me, taught me and inspired me. I constantly collect wisdom in order to live it and to pass it on.
I aim never to go to medical doctors for the rest of my life. I prevent and heal disease naturally. Now almost 65, I am in better health than I was at 21.

I eat no meat, no dairy, no junk food. I stopped eating cooked food Dec. 12, 1998. Cooking food destroys its enzymes — its life energy. Cooking food destroys up to 85 percent of all nutrients in raw plant foods, so that means cooking destroys up to 85 percent of all the time, labor, resources and energy that went into growing, marketing and preparing those foods.

Human cancer cells placed on raw, living food die! Human cancer cells placed on cooked food grow and multiply! Cooked food is slow poison! Never heat raw plant food over 105 degrees.

I smoke no cigarettes, no pot. I drink no booze, no coffee, no pop. I take no prescription drugs. I use no illegal drugs. I eat no meals in restaurants.
Every morning I do many vigorous exercises at home. I also jump on my trampoline 20 minutes per day. Jumping on a trampoline is the best total body, low impact exercise — strengthening every cell and activating the lymph glands to flush out toxins. I walk to most places I go. I have not ridden in a car since April 7, 2001.
I like to go to bed 9 – 10 p.m. and get up 6 – 7 a.m. — the hours we sleep before midnight benefit more than the hours we sleep after midnight. To be healthy, nothing substitutes for enough sleep.

I have a home water purifier to remove most of the chlorine, fluoride and other contaminants in the city water.

I sunbathe most days all year around. Sunbathing is marvelously beneficial when we eat only raw plant foods! Never burn! Start with a couple minutes and gradually increase. Stay out of the sun if you eat junk food and cooked crap.

My main food every day is 4-to-8 pint jars of freshly blended smoothies containing cooked hard red wheat kernels, flax seed, apricot kernels and puncture vine — along with large salads of fresh greens from our garden — alfalfa, lambsquarter and collards. I also eat a lot of ripe fruit.

I aim for the best nutrition for the least money — My food cost last year was $3.05 per day. I lived well in 2009 on $3,965 for my total expenses — rent, food, etc — considerably less than half the U.S. poverty level for me as a single person. I treasure living simply and healthy.
