Oxalates are Healthy Raw
Published: Wed, 08/02/23
Ok, so this Sally K Norton woman writes a new book on how harmful oxalates are to the human body, and as usual it turns into this huge FAD.
When I was accepting unsolicited advice lol, this new oxalate FAD came around. Do you know how many people wrote in thinking that my disease came from oxalates on the Raw Foods diet? They tried to convince me of how harmful they were.
This wasn't just one person, it was a crazy amount of people.
No offense to anyone who follows this FAD, but Oxalic Acid in its Raw Form is one of the healthiest things that you can consume. Yes, when Oxalic Acid is cooked and heated, it is very damaging to the human body. However, in the Raw Form, it is one of the healthiest substances that we can eat. In fact, Oxalic Acid in its raw form is not only beneficial, but essential for the physiological functions of the body.
As many of you know, I am a big fan of Dr. Norman Walker who lived to be 100 years old. He was the man who invented the first juicer, and pretty much invented juicing.
His favorite vegetable juice to drink was Carrot/Spinach Juice. He drank many pints of this juice every single day of his life up until he hit the one century mark. Spinach juice is one of the most concentrated oxalic acid foods available to man, and look at him go.
In Dr. Norman Walker's Juicing Therapy book, he explains exactly how and why Oxalic Acid is extremely beneficial for the human body in its raw form, but extremely harmful in the cooked form.
This is one of the reasons why I stay away from cooked tomatoes, spinach, and other specific cooked vegetables.
This chapter on Oxalic Acid in his book isn't long, and I am going to share it below. I will include my comments in between the paragraphs.
I don't mean to cause any problems here with all the people totally into this new FAD, but I can't stand the spread of misinformation. It's great that she is sharing that Oxalic Acid is harmful in cooked foods. However, when she says that the Oxalic Acid in Raw Foods is just as damaging, and thousands of people are now avoiding some of the most healthiest foods on the planet, now that drives me mad.
Let's get started here on Dr. Norman Walker's Oxalic Acid chapter from his Juice Therapy book. Make sure to make it through the entire excerpt. It is the 6th paragraph, right after my first comment, where it starts to get really juicy.
"Oxalic Acid
One of the mysteries of the human anatomy is that function which is known as peristaltic motion. This motion, or action, takes place in the alimentary canal, in the circulating and generative tubes, and in the eliminative channels in successive wavelike motions, forcing whatever matter is present therein, onward on its course. It is a series of contracting and relaxing of the nerves and muscles successively a function which takes place involuntarily so far as our own voluntary controlling powers are concerned, and apparently is entirely automatic.
The efficiency of this peristaltic action, however, is very naturally dependent on the tone and healthy vigorous condition of the nerves and muscles of these channels.
Organic oxalic acid is one of the important elements needed to maintain the tone of, and to stimulate peristalsis. It is perfectly obvious, of course, that any motion of the body which takes place by the "involuntary" action of its organs is predicated on there being life in the cells and tissues of such organs. Life is active, magnetic; whereas there is no action in death nor in dead matter, and this applies definitely to cells and tissues of our anatomy.
If the important organs comprising the alimentary and eliminative departments of our system, or any parts of them, are moribund or dead, the efficiency of their function is impaired, to say the least. This condition can result only from a lack or deficiency of live atoms in the food nourishing the cells and tissues concerned. Live food means that food which contains live organic atoms and enzymes found only in our raw foods."
This is why our Living Raw Organic Juice Powders are so important. We are providing you this live organic nourishment, which enables you to nourish yourself in the best way possible. I always recommend taking these juice powders on an empty stomach in order to avoid any bad combinations that can interrupt the absorption of these precious nutritious juices.
Ok, let's continue on. This is where it starts to gets juicy.
We have in previous chapters, covered this important question of organic versus inorganic atoms in our food. It is very vital to stress this matter in regard to oxalic acid. When the food is raw, whether whole or in the form of juice, every atom in such food is vital ORGANIC and is replete with enzymes. Therefore, the oxalic acid in our raw vegetables and their juices is organic, and as such is not only beneficial but essential for the physiological functions of the body.
The oxalic acid in cooked and processed foods, however, is definitely dead, or INORGANIC, and as such is both pernicious and destructive. Oxalic acid readily combines with calcium. If these are both organic, the result is a beneficial constructive combination, as the former helps the digestive assimilation of the latter, at the same time stimulating the peristaltic functions in the body.
When the oxalic acid has become INORGANIC by cooking or processing the foods that contain it, then this acid forms an interlocking compound with the calcium even combining with the calcium in other foods eaten during the same meal, destroying the nourishing value of both. This results in such a serious deficiency of calcium that it has been known to cause decomposition of the bones. This is the reason I never eat cooked or canned spinach.
As to the oxalic acid itself, when converted into an inorganic acid by cooking or processing the food, it often results in causing inorganic oxalic acid crystals to form in the kidneys.
It is worthy to notice that the minerals in our foods — iron, for example — frequently cannot be assimilated and used completely if they have become inorganic through cooking, and often prevent the utilizing of other elements through chemical and other action. Thus, the iron in fresh-raw spinach juice may be utilized 100%, but only one-fifth of that, or less, would be usable in cooked spinach.
It is well to bear in mind, therefore, that as the organic oxalic acid is so vital to our well-being, the fresh-raw juice of the vegetable containing it should be used daily to supplement the eating of these raw vegetables included in our daily salads.
The most abundant supply of organic oxalic acid is found in fresh raw spinach (both the common variety and the New Zealand spinach) Swiss chard, beet greens, turnip and mustard greens, kale and collards, and the broad-leafed French sorrel."
Now keep in mind that this man lived to be 100 years old, and he drank many pints of one of the highest oxalic acid raw foods on the planet daily (spinach juice). In fact, one pint of spinach juice daily is what he used to cure the worst kinds of constipation for people within a few days or weeks. As he states above, this type of Raw living Oxalic Acid is the best medicine you can take for your peristalsis. It's probably one of the reasons why so many people are doing so well on our Raw Living Organic Beet Juice.
Anyway, I'm just trying to set things straight here. My disease didn't come from eating the raw healthy oxalic acid in Raw Foods. Everyone is so food based minded when it comes to disease, as if what you put in your mouth is the cause of all disease.
I eat as perfectly as possible, and look at me. There is a reason I am going through this. Open your eyes! I am one of the healthiest eaters in the world. This is happening to me for the people to see. So see! I'm a pretty famous dude lol, and what happened to me has been noted by hundreds of thousands of people. It makes no logical sense!
I'll end it with this. When Jesus healed someone of their disease, he didn't say go improve your diet lol. Sometimes he would simply say don't sin anymore.
Anyway, If you are not juicing live organic foods in order to get this type of ultimate Living Atom nourishment, as I shared with you in previous Newsletters, we've got all of our Living Raw Organic Juice Powders permanently at the 'At-Cost' pricing now.
