August 17, 2005 Research

The University of Manchester in the UK has discovered yet another "health benefit" to eating fruits and vegetables. A study found that carotenoids, found in some fruits and vegetables -- mostly orange and yellow ones -- appear to "help stave off arthritis." Once again, the health research industry is coming at the problem of disease backwards, assuming that the diseases are "normal" and that healthy foods are some kind of drug that cures or mitigates them. Our view is that nature assumes your body will have huge quantities of fruits and vegetables daily, and the unnatural absense of these foods in our diets CAUSES diseases like arthritis, heart disease, cancer and others.
