A PARASITE IN OUR STOMACH AND GREED PUT IT THERE.

It’s a tangled web of bribery that makes your average politician look like a saint, and they are currently spending tens of millions of dollars in false advertising trying  to cover up what they have been, and still are, doing.

 So if you’re serious about the health of your family make sure you read every word of this, because what you are about to read may shock you, but it may also save your life.

The 1950 the death rate by heart disease in America had jumped to an astonishing 30%, compared to the 1900’s when it was 10%.

In just 50 years, deadly heart attacks had increased by a factor of 3X. People were dropping dead at an alarming rate, and no one could figure out why

Then, on September 24^th, 1955, America’s own President, Dwight D. Eisenhower, suffered a heart attack, sending the entire nation into a panic The Crisis Was Now Real.

On Monday, September 26, The Dow Jones plunged 6.5%. The total paper loss for the day was $14 billion dollars, the largest ever, including that of the Great Depression.

President Eisenhower would not walk again until October 25th, and would not return to the White House until November 11^th, nearly 6 weeks later.

By this time, the fear of heart attacks was on everyone’s mind. Enter government researcher Ansel Keys.

Mr. Keys was Harvard-educated scientist who had helped design rations for the U.S. Army during World War II

Mr. Keys set out to discover why Americans had the highest rate of heart attacks out of any of the 1^st world countries.

In what would later become known as the “Seven Country Study”, Mr. Keys discovered that Mediterranean nations had the lowest heart attack rates in the world.

Their diet also contained the lowest amount of fat.  He concluded the American high-fat diet was to blame for our heart attack problem.

Correct or not, finally the public had an answer.

Though he himself would many years later change his own opinion on the matter, for the time, a low-fat diet was universally accepted as the only surefire heart attack fix.

Food scientists had discovered that fat was a “flavor carrier” and it could deliver taste and odor compounds from different parts of food, and provided texture and “mouth feel” that made food taste better.

Without fat, food tasted like CARDBOARD.

But now the public was DEMANDING their foods be Low-Fat!

Processed and canned foods began to go uneaten, as people turned to more natural, lower-fat alternatives. If it didn’t say, “Low Fat” on the label, people stopped buying it.

The conglomerates scrambled to find new recipes that would allow them to call their products “Low Fat”, yet still taste good. Food scientists were called in by the dozens, and finally, they discovered something even better – You see, unlike fat, this new flavor additive was actually ADDICTING…

It goes by many different names, but you may know it best as  Refined Sugar.

 Did the food industry know it was dangerous? Even many doctors of the 1950’s would argue they certainly did.

As far back as 1808, studies had been done proving sugar was not only unhealthy, but actually TOXIC. Believe it not, sugar manufactures were pulling P.R. Stunts back then, as they do today.

In 1808 the Committee Of West India, a large sugar conglomerate of the time, appeared before the British House Of Commons to offer a prize of 25 guineas – about $1000 dollars in today’s coin – to anyone who could show an experiment that proved sugar was good for feeding and fattening cows, hogs, and sheep. Food for animals is always always expensive. Sugar was extremely cheap, so many farmers took on the challenge, hoping for good results. The 25 guineas would be just a bonus to the new, cheaper food supply!

But as you may have guessed, the attempts were a DISASTER. Many resulted in the death of livestock. One member of Parliament, John Curwin, took on the challenge himself, trying to feed sugar and molasses to his calves. After the experiment of this well-known, highly ranked politician failed, the Committee Of West India gave up.

Then, in 1816, the well-known French physiologist, F. Magendie, did an experiment of his own involving dogs. He determined that dogs fed with water containing sugar and olive oil wasted away and died FASTER than dogs fed with water alone.

This showed sugar not only had NO nutritional value… but actually caused NEGATIVE affects. This shut the sugar manufactures up, but just for the time being.

 Enter back to 1957.

 Fat was out. The food industry had found foods packed with SUGAR were winning every taste test.  But would the public buy it?

As recently as the 1930’s, Dr. Weston A. Price, a research dentist from Ohio, had traveled around the world observing different cultures and their diets. In 1939 he published a paper that revealed in horrifying detail what had happened to the teeth and health of those in cultures who had incorporated refined sugars into their food supply.

Sugar still had a bad name. The Conglomerates would need to make a move.

Later in 1957, noted Professor E.V. McCollum, who was often referred to as America’s top nutritionist of the day, published a book called, “A History Of Nutrition”.

 In it, he argued that despite their being DOZENS of experiments done since the 1800’s proving sugar was bad for human consumption… those experiments were all flawed due to the human error!

This book was published and marketed with the same ferocity you see with bestsellers of today.

 But where did it come from?

No scientist has his own money to publish a book on such a grand scale, and let’s face it – “A History Of Nutrition” is not a title that will make a book fly off the shelves.

A look inside the book revealed it was published and marketed by a company called, “The Nutrition Foundation, Incorporated”

Who was The Nutrition Foundation?

I’m glad you asked. It happened to be a front organization for the leading sugar conglomerates of time, including the American Sugar Refining Company, Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, Curtis Candy Co., General Foods, General Mills, Nestlé, Pet Milk Co. and Sunshine Biscuits – about 45 companies in all.

And did the Americans buy it?

Oh boy, did they ever! Sales of processed foods SKYROCKETED. All they had to do was put “Low Fat” on the label, then dump in a bunch of refined sugar, and it would sell like crazy!

The Food Conglomerates responded to the increasing sales by using even MORE sugar. It began to find it’s way into foods you would NEVER expect, like hot dogs, yogurt, spaghetti, and breads.

As the decades past, obstacles would spring up, but each time, the conglomerates had an answer…

In 1965, the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act began requiring their products to be honestly and informatively labeled. By this time the public wasn’t so hot on sugar any more, but no matter.

The conglomerates simply HID the sugar by putting it into new forms, and creating new names:

Another classic example is when the sugar pushers began putting the word “natural” into all of their advertising. “Made from natural ingredients” became their slogan… but all refined sugars are made from natural ingredients. So is cocaine and heroin.

During the 1970’s, armed with new studies showing the dangers of refined sugars and exposing them in all of their forms, the American public began to wake up. For the first time since the 50’s, sales of certain high-sugar foods slowed down.

 But the Conglomerates had prepared for this, and had been hard at work developing yet another weapon of their own –  Artificial Sweeteners.

 Perhaps the most notorious of these was Aspartame.  More commonly known as Equal or NutraSweet, the story of how it became approved by the FDA is startling. By this time, the “diet” craze was in full swing, and the “diet” food market was a billion-dollar industry.  It was 1973, and another artificial sweetener, Cyclamate, had recently been BANNED when it was found to cause tumors in tests done on animals.  Aspartame was initially also rejected by the FDA – but it’s developer, G.D. Searle, was not having it.  Searle presented to the FDA 100 different studies that showed it was harmless – studies G.D. Searle had funded themselves.

Why not? They knew if they could get it approved, they would make BILLIONS

But despite what their studies said… every time an independent study was done, it was found to be DANGEROUS for human consumption.

For the first time in history, the FDA sought criminal investigation into a food manufacturer for misrepresenting the safety tests of a product.

What the investigation revealed was SHOCKING. Deceased lab animals from the tests were not autopsied for months or even YEARS after their deaths, so that rotting would render any tumor data inaccurate

Other animals were found to have tumors CUT OUT and thrown away… then the animals with the removed tumors were labeled as “Normal”! Obvious tumors were labeled as “Normal swelling”!

The FDA easily ruled that Aspartame would not receive final approval. … but what would follow was a set of dirty political tricks that must have made Abraham Lincoln roll over in his grave…

G.D. Searle first arranged to actually HIRE the U.S. Attorney who was leading the investigation! Samuel Skinner first resigned from the U.S. Attorney’s office… stalling the investigation… then went to work for Searle!

Later that year, Donald Rumsfeld was hired on as CEO of Searle. Yes, the same Donald Rumsfeld that was Secretary Of Defense during the Bush Administration.

 He appointed several political buddies to top management positions, and proclaimed he would get Aspartame approved within one year.

At the time, Reagan had just been elected, and Rumsfeld was a part of Ronald Reagan’s transition team… who was in charge of choosing a new FDA Commissioner

They appointed a man named Arthur Hall Hayes Jr.

One of Arthur Hayes first acts as FDA Commissioner was to appoint a 5-person panel to review the final decision to reject Aspartame.

3 of the 5 panel members still voted NOT to approve it, citing the animal tumors as a big concern.

So what did Hayes do?

Simple: He appointed a 6^th member, to tie the vote at 3-3.  Then, Hayes – a man who knew nothing of food additives – decided he as Commissioner should get a vote also…

 He then cast the deciding vote himself in favor of approval!

 Shortly after this scheme, Hayes resigned from his position as FDA Commissioner… after which he was hired by Searle for a position paying hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

I know this sounds like a tale from a political horror movie, but sadly, it is 100% true.

After all was said and done, Aspartame was approved. Coca-Cola began using it to make, “Diet Coke”, which they then marketed as a weight loss drink.

In that first year alone, the FDA received over 600 consumer complaints reporting headaches, dizziness, and other strange reactions to this new, foreign substance our bodies were never designed to handle.

But the food conglomerates had won. And over the last 30 years, more and more of these refined sugars, artificial sweeteners, preservatives, and other unnatural elements have infiltrated our food supply, creating essentially a “new diet”… without ever giving us a choice.

 In 2013  Governments started to finally wised up, and started backtracking trying to clean up this mess…

In of March of 2013, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg fought to lower sugar and sweetener consumption in his city by banning regular and diet sodas over 16 ounces.

 and in September, Paul van der Velpen, the head of Amsterdam’s health service, spoke out to call sugar, “an addictive drug that should be tightly regulated.”

… and Mexico made motions to put large taxes on sodas, just like the American government did with cigarettes.

But like cigarettes, these dangerous additives have now become what feels like a permanent part of our society.

 So what is the result of all of this?

What do these unnatural things actually DO… once we put them in bodies?

Why did the dogs in F. Magendie’s study die FASTER when sugar was added to their diets?  Why are more people getting sick than ever before?

Why are more people suffering from obesity than ever before?  … and why is cancer predicted to soar by 50% by the year 2020?  The answer may frighten you.

Doctors are now saying it could be the widest-spread health hazard to hit North America since cigarettes, polio, HIV, or Hepatitis.

In our lifetimes, this ONE THING will affect more Americans than all 4 of these, combined and, in 2005, molecular biologists at Rice University estimated it was already affecting 70% of the American population.

 What is it?

 It’s the consequence of the unnatural elements we’ve been exposed to… and the deep, dark secret the food conglomerates are right now spending millions of dollars to try and sweep under the rug.  They have some help from the killer itself, because this disease takes over your body from the INSIDE.

Most never even know it is there… until it’s too late.  It’s name is Candida

 Candida is a a type of fungi. A single-celled member of the yeast family. Where did it come from? Was it carried over on a boat from a 3rd world country, or did it come from livestock?

Actually, no, Candida is a natural resident of your digestive track, along with 25 trillion other bacteria, some good, and some bad and  so long as the balance stays in order – which scientists now say is 80% good bacteria to 20% bad, your digestive and immune systems will continue to function normally.

 But here’s where’s the problem starts:

 Candida is is a member of the yeast family … and do you know what yeast like to eat?   Refined Sugars. Artificial Sweeteners. And Preservatives. All of the things that have been added to your food supply in the last 50 years.

Maybe you did the experiment back in high school science class, where you put yeast in a petri dish and fed it sugar to see it grow?

That’s what’s happening in your stomach, RIGHT NOW. These are actual Candida albicans growing in a petri dish.

When you feed the Candida, it starts to breed faster, and faster, and faster, soon it will outnumber the good bacteria in your stomach. Then, they make their way into your upper and lower intestine, and throughout your entire G.I. Tract. Before long, they begin to expand into other parts of your body, resulting in serious medical problems that can cripple your ability to enjoy a happy life.

Fatigue, weight gain, sleeplessness, bloating and gas, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, constipation, skin problems, fungal infections… these are just the start of the havoc Candida can wreck onto your body and if you’re suffering from any one of these symptoms, it’s could be this parasite is to blame.

When you take antibiotics, Candida growth accelerates even faster, as antibiotics kill off many of the good bacteria that would otherwise keep it in check. It’s because of all of this doctors estimate that currently, at time of this letter is being produced in the 4^th quarter of 2013, 80% of all Americans suffer from some degree of Candida.

Dr. David Perlmutter,

a personal advisor to Dr. Oz, who you may know from the show, and his current New York Times best-seller, “Grain Brain”, recently stated,

The reason Candida is so dangerous is because it directly affects your digestive system, which is the largest internal organ in your body.

It’s also the home of your immune system. So when your digestive tract is weakened, so is your ability to combat sickness, and disease

 Left untreated, it can begin to affect every area of your life

… your chances of having Candida Overgrowth are greatly increased

One of the scariest things about Candida is the way it begins to reprogram you to CRAVE more more of the foods IT wants

It hijacks taste buds, brain chemistry and hormones to make you want foods that make it grow FASTER… and mess you up even more…

Breads, sugars, refined carbs Sodas, fried foods, carb-heavy foods like pizza and pasta… and of course, desserts and sweets

Do you often find yourself craving these things? If so, it’s probably NOT because you’re a naturally unhealthy eater, but because the bad bacteria have taken over

It’s like they’re down there in your stomach yelling “Feed Me”… forcing you to want foods that worsen your condition, make you gain weight, and make it literally PAINFUL for you to go on a diet that doesn’t include them Candida has also been linked to many studies showing it could be the #1 cause of obesity As Doctors Carolyn Dean and William Crook write in their 2005 book, “The Yeast Connection and Women’s Health”:

The same holds true for men

Once the excess yeast is destroyed, many find they are able to lose the unwanted weight quickly and easily… even that stubborn belly fat most diet plans can’t touch

 So now, here’s how to fix it:

Here’s the good news – to start feeling better, you don’t have to necessarily get rid of all of the Candida

 You just need to balance them out

 As mentioned before, your gut is also home to a lot of good bacteria.  To start feeling your best, you just need to get to the 80/20 balance:

 80% good bacteria

 20% bad bacteria

There are 2 ways to do this:

The first is going on a real, all-natural diet

That means completely eliminating all processed foods, refined sugars and carbs, artificial sweeteners, and also white breads

Then supplement your diet with foods that are high in a special kind of GOOD BACTERIA, called, “Probiotics”

Probiotics are clusters of good bacteria, that, like a powerful ARMY, go into your stomach and form colonies that far outnumber the Candida

They were first brought to attention in 1908 by Nobel Prize winning physiologist Elie Metchnikoff. Noting that Bulgarians, at the time, lived longer than anywhere else on Earth, he set to find out why… and deduced that it was because of their yogurt-heavy diet.

He even named the first Probiotic strand he discovered, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, as a tribute to them

Unfortunately, yogurts today are no longer a good source of probiotics

They’re pasteurized, which kills off most of the good bacteria, not too mention they usually contain… you guessed… TONS of added of sugar

This is especially true with frozen yogurt.

Sure, it’s better for your waist line than ice cream, but don’t expect to see any probiotic benefits

Foods that are high in Probiotics include sauerkraut, kefirs, olives, and fermented vegetables

Eliminate the unnatural elements from your diet, and start eating those foods, and your gut will eventually balance itself out

But… let’s be realistic… In today’s world, that’s nearly IMPOSSIBLE.

Who wants to never eat out at another restaurant? Or never go over to a friend’s place for dinner?

Scientists have recently figured out how to load your gut with Probiotics without having to change your diet at all

They’ve been able to put these living bacteria into pill form, so you can take them with your meals – no matter what those meals may be

They offset the bad foods you eat, populate your gut with GOOD bacteria… and instinctively balance you to right ratio

Once this happens, all sorts of exciting changes can happen in your body…

Many no longer have the need for coffee or caffeine… as your body is now able to get more energy from food, and tap into it easily

Dr. Allan Walker, Professor of Nutrition and Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School, recently stated:

This makes your disease-fighting ability stronger, so you get sick less often

In a 2001 study, children from daycare centers in Helsinki, Finland were given milk with and without Probiotics. Those who drank the Probiotic-enhanced milk were 17% less likely to get a respiratory infection, and 16 percent less likely to call in sick because of illness

Harvard Medical School has also recently gone on record to proclaim Probiotics’ effectiveness at preventing vaginal yeast infections as well as antibiotic-induced diarrhea

Dr. Michael F. Roizen, New York Times best-selling author, and Chief Wellness Officer at the Cleveland Clinic recently said:

Many also find weight begins to fall off, since your gut processes food more efficiently. If you’ve had trouble losing weight in the past it could be because the Candida have “clogged up” your digestive tract, which can greatly slow down your metabolism

You’ll also notice those carb and sugar cravings fade away. You actually find yourself craving GOOD, healthy foods that make you look and feel GREAT

All in all, your digestive track contains 60% of the cells in your body – so it’s no surprise cleaning it up can make you feel like a whole new person

In June 2012, Scientists at the Alimentary Pharmabiotic Centre at UCC found that brain levels of Serotonin, the ‘happy hormone’ that controls your mood, are regulated by the amount of bacteria in the gut

That means if your gut is clogged up, Serotonin production can slow down. This is why many who suffer from Candida Overgrowth are irritable, moody, and suffer from anxiety and depression

Says participating Doctor Gerald Clarke:

Another 2007 study published in Pediatrics is one of my personal favorites. They found that after 4 weeks, breastfed babies whose mothers who consumed a daily Probiotic cried 194 minutes less than the test group that didn’t! In 2010 the study was done AGAIN and showed a similar result!

It’s no wonder many doctors are now calling Probiotics the most important wellness discovery of our time. Many even say taking a daily Probiotic is more important than vitamins… as it not only puts you a in a better mood… but when your gut is working right, you extract all vitamins naturally from your food, like your body was designed.
