Your GLUTEN problem may actually be from GLYPHOSATE

Time Text
Hello and welcome to the Health Ranger Report.
This is Micah Adams, the Health Ranger of TalkNetwork.com with a special report today called The Gluten-Free Fraud.
Yeah, The Gluten-Free Fraud.
And if you have been eating gluten-free or you're interested in gluten-free diets or just interested in gluten or you don't even know what is gluten, most people don't, then you're going to find this quite fascinating.
Now, where to begin?
Let's start with the fact that most of the gluten-free foods that are sold in the grocery store And I'm talking about foods that are labeled gluten-free, you know, in the gluten-free section, the gluten-free aisle.
Most of those foods are loaded with GMOs and MSG. So if you actually read the ingredients on these so-called gluten-free foods, you're going to find that they contain all kinds of genetically modified ingredients like corn, sometimes corn syrup, solids, or maltodextrin.
And you're going to find all kinds of MSG-containing ingredients, most notably yeast extract.
Yeast extract is sort of the way that food manufacturers hide MSG, monosodium glutamate, on their labels.
And I'm looking at an ingredients label right here, right now, of a product that is labeled gluten-free, and it's promoted as gluten-free, and it's got soybean oil, which is almost always genetically modified.
It's got maltodextrin, which comes from GMO corn.
It's got yeast extract in it, cheddar seasoning, disodium phosphate, soy lecithin, which is, of course, genetically modified.
And other ingredients that are pretty scary.
Now if you go down the list of all the gluten-free products out there, and you actually read the labels, this is what you're going to run into, is all these genetically modified ingredients and forms of MSG. So I don't know about you, but I think it's kind of disingenuous that there are these products out there that are saying, they're kind of claiming to cater to this gluten-free movement.
And they're really sort of implying that gluten-free is healthier for you.
And they're positioned in grocery stores and health food stores in the section of the store that's usually reserved for things that are healthy, a health food section or perhaps even like a non-GMO section or an organic section.
So there's this implied message, implied claim by the positioning on the shelf that this gluten-free product is somehow healthier for you, better for you.
And this is the problem with these one-dimensional claims where they claim to be one thing.
Oh, they're gluten-free.
Or some other foods claim to be sugar-free.
Or some other foods claim to be fat-free.
These are one-dimensional foods, and they're usually some of the worst processed foods that you can buy.
Some of the very worst.
For example, the sugar-free foods are usually loaded with chemical artificial sweeteners.
Like aspartame or sucralose or what have you.
You know, the big claim is sugar-free, so diabetics eat them, and diabetics are then loading up on aspartame, which is horrible for diabetics.
Horrible!
It's like poison for diabetics, but oh, it's sugar-free, so it must be okay.
And you have these foods that are fat-free.
And especially back in the 1990s, fat-free was this huge craze.
Oh, everybody's got to eat fat-free.
There was a war on eggs.
There was a war on real butter, and everybody was snarping down partially hydrogenated margarine.
These genetically modified soybean oil that's partially hydrogenated, and it's sold as margarine.
I'm protecting my heart, protecting my arteries, and then they have a stroke and fall over dead.
Because their arteries are clogged from the hydrogenated oils, it was all this big gimmick by the food industry to sell cheap canola oil, which was originally called rapeseed oil, they renamed it canola oil, they created margarine, they attacked the And they attacked eggs and they pushed this complete bogus quack science food industry nonsense for over a decade.
And people bought into it.
Of course, that was before the Internet really got big.
And so a lot of people were getting all their information from ABC, NBC, you know, the mainstream media outlets, which were easy for the food industry to control.
Today, the food industry can't really control that much.
Because the mainstream media is crashing and burning.
I mean, who watches the mainstream media and believes what they see other than complete morons?
I mean, informed people are, of course, getting all their information from the alternative media, the new media, independent media, and so on.
By the way, plugging that, go to AlternativeNews.com to get real-time news headlines from all of the alternative media websites in the natural news universe and more.
And you can also go to Fetch.News, Fetch, F-E-T-C-H, Fetch.News, to monitor real-time breaking news on all your favorite topics like fluoride or gluten-free if you want. From across thousands of new media websites, including natural news and many, many others.
So, since the food industry can't control the independent media anymore, this truth comes out now.
We can get the truth to you and you can get informed.
And that's why I'm telling you this right now, because the gluten-free labeled products are, in most cases, not all, but in most cases, they're a total scam.
They are processed junk food.
They are factory foods.
They are loaded with GMOs.
They are loaded with, oftentimes, processed sugars.
And they are loaded with MSG. Okay, so you're eliminating the gluten, but you're poisoning yourself with all this other stuff.
Is that really a good dietary choice?
Wouldn't it be better to not eat processed food in the first place and instead just make healthier dietary choices like, you know, eat some fresh vegetables, juice some fresh vegetables.
You know that celery doesn't contain gluten, right?
You know that spinach doesn't contain gluten.
You know that citrus fruits don't contain gluten.
If you do a juice feasting smoothie with some kale and some celery and a lemon in there, then apples and pears and maybe some carrots, you know, you drink that down.
That's gluten free and it doesn't contain MSG and it doesn't contain GMOs.
So if you're making healthy food choices in the first place, you probably don't have to worry about gluten that much.
Now, with that said, I know there are some people listening who are saying, well, wait I'm sensitive to gluten.
I know I'm sensitive to gluten because when I eat so-called, you know, wheat-based foods, then I have various digestive problems, let's say.
And when I go gluten-free, then everything works better and I have more energy and I have better digestion, better elimination, and so on.
So you think, you think that gluten is your problem.
And I'm here to tell you that in a surprisingly large number of cases, the real problem is not gluten.
It's glyphosate.
It's glyphosate.
And here's why.
Most of the wheat products that are non-organic, that are used to make commercial foods today, which includes pasta, cake mixes, breads, muffins, all these things, hamburger buns, you name it, wheat, flakes, breakfast cereals, all these things, hamburger buns, you name it, wheat, flakes, breakfast cereals, that wheat is sprayed with toxic cancer-causing glyphosate before
So, in other words, glyphosate, which is the same, it's the active ingredient in Roundup from Monsanto, glyphosate is sprayed on these crops to make them dry out more quickly, so they can be harvested without laying out in the field for an extended period of time, which so they can be harvested without laying out in the field for an extended period of time, which subjects
So farmers don't want to lose the wheat crops, so they spray glyphosate all over the wheat to dry it out quickly so they can cut it and then turn it into your breakfast cereal with glyphosate all over it.
Now, I dare say to you that if you think your problem is gluten, you may be mistaken.
You may have made an honest mistake.
Your real problem might be glyphosate, not gluten.
And there's a simple way to figure this out.
It's very simple.
If you're currently eating gluten-free, Go back to putting wheat into your diet, but make sure it's all certified organic.
Get certified organic bread or certified organic pasta or what have you.
And try that and see if you're okay with that.
Because a surprisingly large number of people have found that when they go back to wheat, even when they thought gluten was their problem, they go back to wheat, but they choose organic wheat, they find that they don't have a problem.
And it wasn't the gluten after all.
It was the glyphosate.
How weird is that, right?
How amazing is that?
Try this yourself.
If you think you're sensitive, try a month of just organic wheat products.
Now, it's kind of difficult, by the way, to always find organic wheat products.
This is the reason why I make my own bread with a bread machine, and I buy organic whole wheat berries, certified organic.
And then I grind them up, I have a grinder, and then I make my own bread using my own wheat.
And sometimes I can even add gluten into the bread.
Vital wheat gluten, you can add that as an ingredient.
And I don't have a problem with gluten at all.
But if I go eating a bunch of conventional bread, non-organic stuff that's laced with glyphosate, then I'm pretty sure that's going to give me a problem.
I don't go out of my way to seek out that kind of stuff.
So it's not part of my daily menu.
But...
If you're going to do this right, you really need to make your own bread.
And by the way, making your own bread is really easy with a bread machine.
It just takes a couple of minutes to load up the bread machine with the water and the whole wheat, freshly ground whole wheat.
And by the way, it's going to have more nutrients.
It's going to have more antioxidants.
It's going to have more fiber and even more oils in it, natural oils, by the way, that are in the whole wheat grain.
It's not a lot of oil, but it's some.
So you're going to have healthier bread.
And you can throw in sliced almonds if you want, or raisins if you want, or cinnamon.
You can make your own cinnamon bread with palm sugar.
Sweet bread, but low glycemic.
You can do all kinds of things when you have your own bread machine and you have your own organic wheat.
Also, by the way, organic wheat...
Stores for years.
I'm talking whole wheat berries.
Whereas if you have it already pre-ground for you, it doesn't store nearly as long.
So you're way better off to store wheat berries anyway.
It's better for long-term storage and it makes better bread.
And you don't have the whole problem with glyphosate.
So I hope that all makes sense.
Stay with me.
I'll come back after this break with another interesting segment about what's in your food and perhaps some deceptions that may have been stated to you about those foods.
This is the Health Ranger Report here on TalkNetwork.com.
All right, welcome back to the Health Ranger Report.
This is Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, here on TalkNetwork.com.
Be sure to check out my website, NaturalNews.com, and also the news aggregation website, Real-Time Breaking News, on AlternativeNews.com, updated every few minutes with all the breaking headlines.
So in the previous section, we talked about the gluten-free fraud.
And in this section, I've got another interesting surprise for you.
I'm going to tell you why the almond milk, the commercial processed almond milk, should be avoided.
Now, again, you might be going, huh?
What?
I thought almond milk was really healthy for you.
Well, it is if it's actually almond milk.
That is, you made from soaking almonds, raw almonds, right?
You soak them in water, and then you blend them up in a blender, and then you squeeze out the actual almond milk, leaving behind the pulp, you know, using a nut milk bag, obviously, right?
I mean, I hope you know how to do this.
If not, just search goodgopher.com for how to make almond milk.
You just use a nut milk bag in a blender.
It's really easy.
Now that's healthy stuff.
That's real almond milk.
But when almond milk started to become popular, these companies that sell this stuff They wanted to jump on the almond milk bandwagon, but they did not want to do this the hard way, the way that we would make it at home.
That wouldn't be necessarily commercially viable.
So what they did is they came up with a way to use very few almonds, just a few almonds in like a gallon container.
I mean, it may be like half a handful of almonds, that's it.
And they thicken it using carrageenan.
Which is this seaweed extract that's used as a thickening agent in a lot of foods.
A lot of commercial foods use carrageenan.
Now carrageenan, by the way, some people complain that it causes problems for them, digestive problems, gut sensitivity, large intestine problems, whatever.
Personally, I don't have any issue with carrageenan.
It's not something that has ever caused a problem for me, but I do know that some people have said it caused a problem for them.
Nevertheless, what these companies do is they basically take a few almonds and they get the milk out of those few almonds and then they add a lot of water and a lot of carrageenan to thicken it up to kind of simulate the thickness of real almond milk without using all the almonds.
But there's something else they do too, which is the real reason why I say you shouldn't drink this stuff.
They want to position almond milk in the grocery stores to compete with cow's milk.
And what is cow's milk really, really known for in terms of nutrition?
Well, if you ask most people, you know, what's in cow's milk that's good for your body, let's say, one of the first answers is calcium.
There's calcium in cow's milk, right?
High calcium.
So these almond milk companies want to compete with cow's milk, so they have to put on their labels high in calcium.
How do they make this claim?
They add calcium to the almond milk.
Well, calcium comes in a lot of different forms.
And the cheapest form, which is made from ground-up limestone and rocks and sometimes oyster shells, is called calcium carbonate.
It's a very crude molecular form of calcium.
And it is practically indigestible by the human body.
You don't really assimilate this calcium carbonate in the same way that you would assimilate a more bioavailable form of calcium like you might find in broccoli or kale or even cow's milk, which has actually a more advanced form of calcium.
There are lots of different forms of calcium, like calcium phosphate, for example, which is a little more bioavailable.
But calcium carbonate is a horrible form of calcium.
And this is what they put in the almond milk products.
So if you really start to look at the composition of what is this commercial almond milk that you're buying at the grocery store, it's basically water with a ridiculously small amount of almonds thickened up with carrageenan and turned more white it's basically water with a ridiculously small amount of almonds thickened up Looking by using calcium carbonate or ground up rocks, limestone or oyster shells.
Now, I don't know about you, but if I'm at the grocery store and I'm buying almond milk, I don't really I'm not trying to buy like a ground up rock milkshake.
You know, this is not.
My goal is not to drink ground-up rocks.
If you think that your body needs ground-up rocks, then you must think that you get iron in your diet by licking rust.
On old car parts.
You know, you could have just a huge nutritional buffet, I guess, in a car salvage yard, you know, a junkyard.
You go in there, you could lick car parts all day, and you could get iron, and you could...
You could get, I don't know, probably some magnesium and some zinc.
If you know which parts to lick, you could get all that.
But this is not nutrition, right?
Human beings aren't supposed to go around licking car parts or eating rocks.
You don't see...
You don't see humans, like ever in the history of anthropology, you don't see humans rushing to the seashore to chew on oyster shells.
Even ancient starving populations were not eating oyster shells.
They were trying to eat something a lot more nutritious.
Now, the one exception to this, by the way, is salt.
Salt is a kind of rock that is edible.
And the animals and the humans throughout the history of life on Earth have, in fact, sought out the minerals of the salt caves.
I'm talking about land-based animals, obviously, because ocean animals, marine ecosystems already have the salt in the ocean water.
But land animals, especially mammals, they all need salt in order to survive.
salt is kind of a, uh, an edible kind of rock.
And if you look at, for example, elephants in Africa, they would trek sometimes hundreds of miles to get to the salt caves so they could lick the salt and they could have those minerals in their, in their bodies.
And the number one mineral, by the way, in cave salt is magnesium, which is the same number one mineral that's in ocean water.
It all makes sense.
You know, Human blood, the mineral composition of human blood very closely mimics the mineral composition of ocean water.
There's a lot of evolutionary biology in that whole discussion that I'm not even going to get into, but what's fascinating is that the salt caves found across the planet were made by the animals licking the salt.
They would lick a little bit every year and the cave would get deeper and deeper and deeper.
They would go into the caves and they would keep licking the salt and actually nourishing their bodies through that method.
But you don't see any animals running around chewing on oyster shells.
You don't see any animals going into a limestone cave and saying, Hey, I'm going to chew on that stalactite.
Yeah, that looks delicious.
Hang in there like that.
Break off a piece and let's just chew on that like a rock popsicle or something.
It doesn't work that way.
Your body's not designed to digest rocks.
It really isn't.
Now...
I live on a ranch, and I take care of goats, and I take care of donkeys, and very familiar around cows and horses and so on.
And I've observed that these animals, like goats especially, they are expert digesters.
They're like plant matter trash compactors.
I mean, they can run around and eat almost anything that you wouldn't even think is digestible.
They...
My goats chew on tree leaves of oak trees.
They will bend the branches down and gorge themselves on all of these leaves and sometimes stems and just crazy things like weeds that grow around the property that are really rough.
You know, harsh plant matter, goats will come along and they will eat those things.
And you can actually, believe it or not, you can feed goats inorganic minerals like calcium rock, like calcium carbonate, or even like zinc oxide.
Oxide or magnesium oxide.
Actual metals.
You can feed metals to goats.
And goats, because they have such an incredibly efficient system of digestion, a multi-stage system that involves lots and lots of amazing probiotics that break down cell structures of plants, for example, goats can actually turn inorganic metals into nutrition.
They're very good at that.
they can also digest grass and practically anything that you want to feed them.
And just as an example of this, when I compost, and so when I'm eating bananas, I throw the banana peels out for the animals, or if I'm eating a melon, like a cantaloupe, After I eat the delicious parts of the cantaloupe, I throw the rest to the chickens.
The chickens pick the cantaloupe clean, leaving just the shell, the outer layer, the skin of the cantaloupe.
The goats come along and eat that.
The goats eat the banana peels.
The goats will eat practically everything.
If they could fit an avocado seed in their mouth, they would chew on that too.
They will eat anything.
They can digest it.
But you are not a goat.
So don't eat rocks.
We should make a bumper sticker, right?
You're not a goat.
Don't eat rocks.
So stop drinking these almond milks that are made with calcium carbonate.
Now, you can look for it right on the label.
If you're going to have any of these milks, calcium phosphate is better than calcium carbonate.
But you can overdo the calcium by consuming these products.
So be very, very careful about this.
So stay tuned.
This is the Health Ranger Report here on TalkNetwork.com.
I'll be back after this break with yet more interesting information about foods that you may want to eat or avoid, depending on the situation.
Stay tuned.
I'll be right back.
And welcome back to the Health Ranger Report here on TalkNetwork.com.
In this segment, I want to encourage you to try what I call food testing.
Food testing is just a simple procedure, a process of temporary elimination of foods from your diet in order to find out what's going on.
We've talked about gluten-free foods.
We've talked about inorganic minerals, calcium carbonate.
And there are lots and lots of examples of things that are in foods that some people are sensitive to, like carrageenan, where other people are perfectly fine with the same ingredient.
Now, as the health ranger, a lot of people come up to me and they ask me health questions.
They describe things to me that they are dealing with, I guess because they want me to play doctor with them, which I don't do.
I tell them, look, you need to go see a naturopath.
But they tell me these things and they say, you know, what should I do?
They say, you know, I have headaches after I eat some meals, you know, and what should I do about it?
So I'll try to help them with a little bit of common sense, basic educational information like, hey, have you ever thought about the link between headaches and MSG? You know, monosodium glutamate, it's hidden in a lot of foods and in the yeast extract ingredient.
Sometimes it's hidden as it's called Torula yeast.
Sometimes it's in ingredients that are autolyzed vegetable proteins or hydrolyzed vegetable proteins and so on.
Have you ever tried eliminating these, all of these ingredients from your diet for 30 days to see if maybe you don't get headaches?
I laugh about this, but it's kind of sad.
I've had people who have been suffering for years and years, and they're talking to me out of a sense of desperation.
They're saying things like, I've tried everything.
I've tried everything.
I've gone to the doctors.
I've been on these medications.
I've had a Surgery or whatever.
They talk about all these horrible things that they've gone through, difficult things, to try to eliminate this symptom.
Whether it's my joints hurt in the morning or I can't sleep well at night or whatever.
And I say, have you tried eliminating X from your diet for 30 days?
Because they told me they tried everything.
And so I say, have you tried eliminating X? Maybe X is dairy.
You know, for someone who's, let's say, has constipation or chronic sinus infections.
You know, the sinuses are always clogged.
I say, have you tried 30 days with no dairy?
No cheese, no milk, no yogurt, just no dairy at all.
And they inevitably say, no, I haven't tried that.
And so I encourage them to say, well, okay, so, you know, great, this is one more thing you could try.
Since, you know, you thought you tried everything, but isn't it good news to know that you can also try this now, everything plus one, and this might be the one thing that works.
So why don't you eliminate those things from your diet for 30 days and find out what happens.
And occasionally, rarely, people will do this, and sometimes they'll have great results.
But usually what happens is people don't follow through.
They go back home, they may eliminate something from their diet for one or two days, maybe even a week.
But most people go right back to what they were eating that gave them the problem in the first place.
It's like a hypoglycemic saying, you know, gosh, I have low blood sugar.
Every time after I eat breakfast, you know, a couple hours after breakfast, my blood sugar crashes, I start getting the shakes, you know, I can't focus at work.
And I've got to get some food into me, and I say, well, what are you having for breakfast?
They're like, oh, well, you know, pancakes and jams and jellies and processed, you know, pasteurized orange juice and, you know, Lucky Charms, sugary cereal, plus some processed bacon in it with sodium nitrate that actually kills pancreatic cells, by the way.
So basically, they're eating the diabetic breakfast.
And they think that that's the breakfast they're supposed to eat because that's the way they were raised.
It's the all-American breakfast.
Processed pancakes, processed sausage, processed orange juice.
None of it's real.
It's all fake food.
It's all designed to make money for the food companies and keep you in a state of chronic disease to make money for the drug companies because there's a lot of money in diabetes.
It's a multi-billion, I mean hundreds of billions of dollars industry.
It's almost a trillion dollars globally for diabetes alone.
It will be one of these days if these trends continue.
So, I say, you know, have you ever thought about maybe for breakfast, instead of eating a bunch of processed carbohydrates and sugars and crappy processed meat products and fake orange juice that's pasteurized and destroyed, maybe what you do is you do a smoothie.
You do a smoothie, well, like my smoothie, by the way, is healthy avocados.
Avocado, a banana, some cacao, some coconut water, high-quality whey protein.
Blend all that together.
Guess what you have?
You have high-quality fats and proteins, very low carbohydrates, but high mineralization gets you through your morning with steady energy, steady blood sugar, all the way through off and into the afternoon.
You don't have any peaks and valleys.
You don't have any crashes.
Everything's cool because you're living on avocado fat for the morning, which is a really healthy fat.
And you only blend up those avocados.
They're delicious.
It's like drinking an ice cream smoothie, like a chocolate ice cream smoothie for breakfast.
That's why I've been doing it for over, what, now 15 years.
That's why I do it.
It's delicious and simple and it works.
It's awesome.
I couldn't imagine eating the poisonous breakfast that they serve at Denny's or whatever.
People get, you know, continental breakfast at their Super 8 Motel or whatever they're eating.
It's fake everything.
It's not even food.
It's not even a food buffet.
It's like the imitation of breakfast.
So, anyway, I'm getting a little carried away, but my point is you need to try something different.
And Have the courage to get something out of your diet for 30 days and see what difference it makes.
I mean, think about it.
You're probably going to live...
A great many more years in your life.
At least I hope you are.
I know I am, and I hope you are too.
So you're going to have a lot of months, and let's say you're going to live a thousand more months in your life.
Let's just pick a number.
You're going to live a thousand months.
Actually, that's a lot.
You might not live a thousand more months.
I don't know.
Let's say, depending on how old you are, let's say it's 500 months, okay?
You might live 500 more months.
Now, do you want to live those 500 months in the same misery, with the same symptoms that you're having now?
Just because you wanted to stick to the same diet, you didn't want to make any changes?
Or, is it worth trying a few months of different things, taking things out of your diet, putting things back into your diet, adding something to it, taking something away, whatever, to find out what works for you?
And then you can live the rest of those 500 months with a much happier existence.
Perhaps an existence where you don't have arthritis pain, an existence where you don't have gout, an existence where you have better cognitive function, an existence where you have better quality sleep, better quality sex, better quality moods, better, healthier looking skin, you better quality moods, better, healthier looking skin, you know, better energy.
Just a greater desire to be alive, to be alive and enjoy life.
Get up out of bed every morning with the energy to go.
Go do something fun.
Go explore.
Go create.
Go innovate.
Discover.
Whatever the case may be.
See, I feel like doing this experiment with foods, taking something out of your diet, trying it out for 30 days is a great investment in the rest of your life because you'll find out what works for you.
What's so powerful about this is that this is the ultimate personalization dietary experiment for you.
Because a doctor can't tell you exactly what's going on in your body.
They can only guess.
A naturopath can't tell you either.
They can only guess.
All these health books and health fads and TV doctors, they can't tell you what's going to work for you.
They can give you some generic principles, like some of the things that I've shared here, you know, don't eat a bunch of processed carbohydrates for breakfast, duh, right?
But...
Even I can't tell you what's going to work for you.
You know, avocados work for me for breakfast.
I don't know if avocados work for you.
You should try it.
See what happens.
See how you feel.
If it doesn't work, no biggie.
You've only spent a month, or however long you try it, a couple of weeks, drinking avocado smoothies, and you say, well, it's not for me.
You can get rid of it.
Try something else.
This is the beauty, is by eliminating things from your diet, you can fine-tune what works for your physiology.
Now, to do this effectively, though, by the way, you need to keep a simple log.
You don't have to get complicated with this.
You don't have to go out and buy a laptop and set up a word processing center or a spreadsheet, you know.
How about a piece of paper and a pencil?
Tape it to the refrigerator door.
Just write down what you're eating for breakfast every day for 30 days as you're doing it.
Today I had whatever you had.
I tried the Health Rangers avocado smoothie.
It was awesome.
Write it down.
Write it down every day just what you're having for breakfast.
And then, later on in the day, make a note, how do you feel?
How do you feel?
Are you doing better?
Is the symptom that you were concerned about, is it going away?
What are your energy levels like?
What are your moods like?
What's your, I don't know, even ability to learn, mental focus can be strongly influenced by your food choices.
How about your stamina, your ability to engage in physical exercise and endure that exercise?
These are all things that you can just keep track of with some simple notes and just a couple of words.
Like, how do you feel today?
You know, pretty good, energized, optimistic, you know, good strength, whatever.
Just make a couple of notes.
Then you do this for 30 days.
You go back at the end of the month.
You just review your sheet.
What did you eat in one column, let's say?
And then how did it make you feel in the other column?
You can put 30 days on one sheet of paper.
It's no big deal.
When you go back and review this, this is the magic of it.
You're going to find a pattern, probably.
You're going to find a pattern, a cause-effect relationship between what you were eating or eliminating from your food and the results that you were getting.
You'll be able to nail down Very quickly, using this method, the right foods for you.
Especially if you try just one item at a time.
Just eliminate dairy, but nothing else.
Or eliminate gluten and nothing else and see what happens.
Or eliminate, you know...
You could try vegetarian for a month and see how it makes you feel.
You could try different things, but don't mix up multiple variables all at once or you won't be able to tell which one is working for you.
Just do one thing at a time to get the most clarity in the results.
So try this method.
I'm sure it will work for you and the rest of your life will be lived with a much better outcome every single day.
So stay with me.

I'll be right back with more.
Welcome back to the Health Ranger Report here on TalkNetwork.com.
Last segment, I'm going to give you some really good advice on how to shop for healthier products at the grocery store.
And to begin with, I want you to realize that anything that comes in a box...
Is made by a factory, a food factory.
It's not fresh food, obviously, if it's in a box.
I mean, I suppose there may be exceptions.
There might be fresh apples in a box or if you buy a case of apples or something.
But you know what I mean?
I'm talking about foods that have a plastic package in a box, like cereal, for example, or, you know, hamburger helper, potato chips, you know, a box or a bag.
So...
If you understand that these are made in a factory, then the next question is, what is the shelf life of these factory-made foods, and how did they achieve that shelf life?
Now, this is very, very important, because when you understand how they achieve the shelf life, you will know why these foods are poison.
When it comes to crackers, the entire cracker aisle...
is made with hydrogenated oils or partially hydrogenated oils.
And let me explain why that is and why these are poison.
In fact, I think now even the FDA and the medical institutions are coming around and saying, yeah, trans fatty acids, which are found in partially hydrogenated oils, are in fact toxic to human biology, that they cause not only heart disease, but other problems such as cancer that they cause not only heart disease, but other problems such as cancer and may even be related to diabetes and So here's why the food companies do this.
If you make real crackers at home yourself, some kind of baked crackers, and you use, let's say, butter.
Butter is actually natural.
You should use butter instead of margarine or shortening.
Shortening is just partially hydrogenated, genetically modified soybean oil.
If you are using shortening in anything, you are actually shortening your lifespan because that's what shortening does.
It's toxic.
It is poison.
I don't know why so many people think it's healthier to do shortening.
You should use butter or even actual lard, believe it or not, would be healthier for you than so-called shortening.
Remember, if you're using shortening, it's shortening your lifespan.
Now, so if you were making these crackers yourself at home and you put real butter into the crackers and you bake them in your oven and then you set them out on the counter, or even if you put them in the This butter, this oil in the butter is actually going to sort of slowly seep out of the crackers.
Also, that oil is going to oxidize very quickly as it comes into contact with the atmosphere, the air around the crackers.
And as it oxidizes, it's going to go rancid.
That's what real oil does.
Real oil, meaning real food, such as butter, goes bad and it oxidizes.
It goes rancid and it doesn't stay in the product physically.
It will drain out.
It will kind of soak out or seep out slowly.
If you put those crackers, for example, on a paper towel, you'll find that butter oil is leaking into the paper towel and making it oily.
Now, what the food manufacturers do is they found a way to plasticize oils.
To keep them in the cracker so that they also do not react with the air.
They do not oxidize and they do not go rancid very quickly.
This process is called hydrogenation.
Hydrogenation is a the easiest way to think of it is a plasticizer process for edible oils and what they do Is they take a cheap, low-grade oil, like canola oil, which is genetically modified, or soybean oil, which is also genetically modified.
And these are basically animal-grade oils that are probably better used to feed hogs, because they fatten you up very, very quickly, and they're incredibly cheap to mass-produce.
And these oils...
Are, of course, in a liquid form normally at room temperature, but these food companies want to make them solid at room temperature.
So they plasticize them by bubbling hydrogen and perhaps some other elements.
I'm not sure of the exact nature of the process, but they bubble hydrogen gas through the oils, and that's why it's called hydrogenated.
It then makes it form a solid at room temperature.
So now it's a solid.
It will stay in the crackers and the crackers will stay on the shelf at the grocery store for an extended period of time.
And this is key to the profits of the food companies because they don't want their food products going rancid on the shelf or the oil leaking out and making the box look oily and so on.
So they have to have this plasticized oil in their products to have the shelf life, to make the money, By selling you old food.
Really, really old food.
It's not even anywhere near fresh.
And as a total insult to your intelligence...
If you do read ingredients, they add a chemical called BHT, which is a toxic chemical preservative, and they put on the ingredients label, BHT added for freshness.
Have you ever seen this on a food label?
BHT added for freshness.
But it isn't fresh.
It's old food.
It's plasticized food.
It's fake food.
It contains trans fatty acids that are poisoned to your body.
And the BHT that they claim makes it fresh is actually another toxic chemical.
So the whole thing is a fake food scam, and yet this is what people are buying every single day in the grocery stores across America and around the world.
And they don't realize they're eating plasticized oils, fake food in the form of cookies, crackers, baked goods, all of those things.
If you're buying cookies, I'm like factory made cookies.
You are eating this toxic plasticized hydrogenated oil garbage.
And these hydrogenated oils, by the way, show up in all kinds of foods that you would not even expect.
If you don't read ingredients labels, you're poisoning yourself.
You're not even knowing it.
For example, you probably buy coffee creamer.
If you drink coffee, maybe you're buying this creamer.
Well, what is this creamer?
It's this white powder and it tastes good, right?
That's all you really know because you never read the ingredients label.
If you do read the ingredients label...
And I dare you to do so.
You'll find that a lot of these commercial factory-made coffee creamers are made from powdered hydrogenated oil and various, sometimes sweeteners, refined sweeteners.
Basically, you're eating powdered shortening, which, remember, is shortening your life.
You're getting trans fatty acids.
You are harming your cardiovascular health, your metabolic health, your liver, your brain, organs, everything.
Your body is not designed to eat plasticized oil.
Plasticized, genetically modified oil.
And by the way, if you care at all about the environment, you should know that soybean oil comes from soybean fields that have been created by clear-cutting the Amazon rainforest.
So a lot of this oil...
Actually comes from Brazil and various South American countries where they have been clear-cutting the rainforest to grow these genetically modified soybeans, which makes money for, guess who?
Monsanto.
Yes, the world's most evil corporation.
So if you love to support the world's most evil corporation, and you love clear-cutting rainforests, and you love poisoning your body with trans fatty acids, and you love GMOs, then keep eating cookies and crackers and coffee creamer from the grocery store, because that's what you're eating.
And I know it's a shock to a lot of people who don't pay any attention to what they're actually putting in their mouth.
They don't think about the whole supply chain.
They don't think about where this food came from, how it got to them.
Why is it shelf stable?
Why is this stuff not rancid on the shelf six months later?
It's kind of a litmus test.
If it's food, if it's real food, it's probably going to go rancid.
In a lot fewer than six months.
Other exceptions to this, for example, you can have salted natural beef products.
You can have beef jerky that's dehydrated and that gives it a natural preservation property, for example.
But if you're talking about cookies and crackers and packaged things, they tend to go rancid very, very quickly unless they're chemically treated in some way or chemically altered like this hydrogenation process that we're talking about.
So beware of anything that is factory made.
If it's got a fancy box around it, it's probably factory made.
Now...
There are some healthy cereals out there like Nature's Path, for example, is the best cereal company in the world as far as I'm concerned.
Everything that they make is non-GMO. Everything they make is certified organic.
They own their own farm fields so that they can control the quality of the raw materials, the wheat, for example, that they use in their cereals.
If I'm going to eat cereal, I eat Nature's Path.
And there are a few other small companies, too, up and coming in the cereal space that are to be trusted.
But by the way, Kashi is not one of them.
Kashi is owned, I think, by Kellogg's.
It's one of the big three, Kellogg's, General Mills, or Post.
But I think Kashi is owned by Kellogg's.
And I do know that Kashi's parent corporation is one of the companies that funded the opposition to GMO labeling in California and Washington.
They don't want you to know what's at their food.
Kashi, by the way, has been tested for glyphosate.
We covered this on naturalnews.com.
It turned out that a box of Kashi cereal that was tested by this environmental group had 500% higher levels of glyphosate, cancer-causing herbicide, than did a cereal, a box of Froot Loops.
Right?
Which is strange.
You would think that Kashi would be healthier than Froot Loops, but it actually, at least in this test, the boxes that they tested, Kashi had 500% higher levels of glyphosate.
That's pretty frightening.
Personally, I don't touch Kashi cereal.
Wouldn't touch it.
It's an unethical product, in my opinion.
So I hope that the takeaway from this is that you need to be really, really well informed about what you're eating and where it comes from and how it's made and don't fall for the tricks of the food industry like they're claiming this is fresh because we added a chemical to it.
No, it's not.
You know why the processed meat looks pink and red and fresh?
Because they added sodium nitrate to it, which is a cancer-causing color fixer.
That's used in bacon and hot dogs and beef jerky and ham and packaged lunch meat, all those things.
It's a toxic cancer-causing chemical.
It's linked to brain tumors.
It's linked to leukemia.
It's linked to pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer as well.
And they use it as a color fixture and a preservative as well.
So...
Learn what you're actually eating and then make better choices about what you want to put in your body, especially if you don't want to be shortening your life.
Don't eat shortening.
Hope that makes sense.
