Hello, everyone. Probably, this is going to be the opposite of everything you've heard before.
I'm called the upside down man. I had multiple myeloma, which is cancer of the blood and bone. Very few people survive. I started with an ulcer and it was treated. It ended up tumorous, they treated that with surgery and radiation. And that gave me the blood and bone cancer bone multiple myeloma. And then they treated that with chemotherapy and ended up with lymphoma.
And they left me crippled. I was practically paralyzed from the chest down. To maneuver, I had to roll off the couch and crawl with my elbows to the kitchen or to the bathroom. It would take me sometimes 30 minutes. I would have to rest sometimes up to 30 minutes at a time, just to go 10 feets. I decided that the doctors had not a clue of what had anything to do with health.
So I abandoned them, left them completely and began the study of nutrition. It turned my life around very gradually, it took me 13 years to find a particular diet that would work.
In my book, We Want to Live. I give a lot of the testimonials, the experiences of people who have tried this particular diet. Now, you've heard, I'm sure, about people should not eat meat. That meat is carcinogenic. That meat will poison you.

And over a long period of time, these collect. All cooked foods, create that. In cooked carbohydrates, no matter of its fruit or grains or potatoes or any kind of potato product, they form advanced glycation end products. New York City Medical University did research on advanced glycation end products, and they found that the byproduct of advanced glycation end products, that's when you use glycogenous fuel, like we use fuel and we end up with monoxides. We have advanced glycation end products that form. Now,, they found that in a healthy body they stored a rate of 70 percent.
That means every time you eat a carbohydrate, whether it's raw core, a fruit, a grain, a cookie, no matter what it is, you will store 70 percent of that toxin if you're healthy, 90 percent if your unhealthy. Basically, this is an argument against the human body being a grain eater or a fruit eater. This is why so much diabetes has developed.
