You are what
you eat, so eat well. A stupendous insight of civilizations past has now been
confirmed by today's investigative, nutritional sciences. They have shown that
what was once called 'The Doctrine of Signatures' was astoundingly correct. It
now contends that every whole food has a pattern that resembles a body organ or
physiological function and that this pattern acts as a signal or sign as to the
benefit the food provides the eater. Here is just a short list of examples of
Whole Food Signatures.
A sliced Carrot looks
like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human
eye...and science shows that carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function
of the eyes.
A Tomato has four
chambers and is red. The heart is red and has four chambers. All of the research
shows tomatoes are indeed pure heart and blood food.
Grapes hang in a
cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and
all of the research today shows that grapes are also profound heart and blood
vitalizing food.
A
Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums
and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds are on the nut just like the
neo-cortex. We now know that walnuts help develop over 3 dozen
neuron-transmitters for brain function.
Kidney Beans actually
heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human
kidneys.
Celery, Bok Choy,
Rhubarb and more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone
strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have
enough sodium in your diet the body pulls it from the bones, making them weak.
These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.
Eggplant, Avocadoes
and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female -
they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats
1 avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight and prevents
cervical cancers. And how profound is this? .... It takes exactly 9 months to
grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic
chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science
has only studied and named about 141 of them).
Figs are full of
seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the motility of male sperm
and increase the numbers of sperm as well to overcome male sterility.
Sweet Potatoes look
like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics.
Olives assist the
health and function of the ovaries.
Grapefruits, Oranges,
and other citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and
actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out
of the breasts.
Onions look like body
cells. Today's research shows that onions help clear waste materials from all of
the body cells They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the
eyes.
'The news isn't that fruits and vegetables are good for you, it's that they are
so good for you, they can save your life.'
