Figuring Stuff out on my Own

Well, I am 72 years old, and I have got a lot of stuff figured out.  Some of this stuff I have been thinking about for a very long time, and I don't just say stuff off the top of my head.  I have done my research.  Like most everybody else, most of my research is done through Google.  Since I am sort of hard of hearing and a lot of these websites it is hard for these old eyes to read what they have written there, I usually like to click on videos and start scanning down until I see something I have not seen before that seems to be along the lines of what I am looking for.  I wear my headsets all the time, and I listen to these videos pretty much all the way through.  Some of them are as much as nine hours long.  Sometimes I view full screen and sometimes I am off and about doing other things and just listening to the video in the background; Clicking back now and again to see if there is something I should be seeing.   I sort of prefer the ones where the guy is standing at a lectern with maybe a laser pointer and a screen with his graphics on it.   Most of the time you get the gist of what he is talking about just listening, and then I will go back over certain spots, especially if he has something on the screen that needs to be read.  Sometimes I Share this stuff with other people I think might be interested, but mostly they think I am a Kook and very seldom do any of them listen to it all the way through like I do.   Over the years, I have made some startling discoveries, and verified it many times through various sources.  Pretty much all of this stuff has to be categorized as Alternative Information.  I learned a long time ago you can not trust Mainstream Media.  One of the best examples I can give you is when the BBC Reporter is announcing that the third WTC building has collapsed, Building Seven, and in the video, you can clearly see Building Seven in the background still standing strong for some twenty minutes after she has made her announcement.  You just know when you see this stuff, they have been fed the stories they want you to cover and the Media has no idea where this information comes from, and certainly do not verify the facts.  Mainstream Media is the puppets of the Government, and the Government is the puppets of the Ruling Elite.  But I am getting ahead of myself.  The main thing I want you to understand at this time, is that pretty much all of the stuff I have figured out is definitely not what the majority of the people believe.  They just all consider me to be a nut case and a conspiracy theorist.

As a matter of fact, I maintain a website I call North Country Alternatives, and it includes all sorts of alternatives to everything from Alternative Building styles to Alternative Healthcare, Food and Nutrition.  NECA, is there for the Electricians.  How they tell you to wire an outlet is the way the big electrical outfits can make the most money in the shortest time, not what is the safest way for you to wire your own house.  And if it says, "UL Approved", that is so some great invention you made is not going to easily make it on the market to compete with their products.  The AMA is there to help the Doctors, they are not going to tell you what is good for you, they want you to know what is good for the doctors, and the doctors get paid by the Pharmaceuticals, and it is Big Pharma that is getting Government Grants to do the research to tell you to use this drug or that drug to fix whatever ails you.    And it is their top executives that sit in all the top spots in the Administration to make sure their drugs get approved.  A great example is Donald Rumsfeld and how he got Aspartame approved by the FDA.  Do your own research on that one, That is a book by itself.


A very long time ago, one of the first things I figured out is that sugar is at the root of all my physical problems.  Mostly it is in my Acid Reflux, or GERD, as it is called.  For some reason or another, hardly anyone will believe that eating sugar gives you acid.  People just naturally assume that eating acid gives you acid, just like eating high cholesterol foods gives you high cholesterol.  I know I certainly was not surprised to find out they are finally reversing all this claptrap and recognize that eating eggs for breakfast every single day of your life does not contribute significantly to your High Cholesterol readings and may even help to lower your blood pressure.  I have known this for years, and I am not going to go down the road so many of my acquaintances have gone to having severe muscular issues including death, from them taking doctor prescribed Staten drugs to lower their cholesterol.  Like I say, I learned about sugar before 1975, but I still have convinced very few people of the dangers of eating refined sugar and especially in the case of High Fructose Corn Syrup.  For some reason or another, people will not believe anything unless some very well paid professional tells them.  And then of course, they are immediately on all the diabetes medications which is obviously the biggest rip-off in the medical industry.  They certainly do not want you to understand your problem and fix it on your own, they want you on these drugs for the rest of your life, which may not be very long.  It was not for some time after that, when I fully appreciated just how extensive this problem is, because they put sugar in everything, and if they advertise, "No Sugar Added", you better believe there is something worse than sugar in there, like Aspartame.  Of course, these days most people are finally catching on to the fact that anything prepared for you is not good for you, but they eat it anyway.  All the advertising is made on this Junk Food and it is especially aimed at the very young, so they get indoctrinated at a very early age.   Why is it we finally banned all that cigarette advertising but it is still OK to advertise Pop and other soft drinks??  It is a much greater problem, especially in America than smoking ever has been.  And that includes  smoking Marijuana, I might add, but they certainly do not want you to find out all the medical uses for marijuana, now, do they??


Sugar has gotten into everything.  Even McDonalds dips their French Fries in sugar water so they caramel up nicely when they hit the frier.   One of the worst prepared foodsn are the breads and bread products.  
At one point I thought I was having some GERD issues when I ate pizza.  "No sugar there", I thought.  WRONG AGAIN, I finally figured out it is the crust for Pete's sake.  Now I eat all the pizza I want, I just scrape all the good stuff off the crust and leave the crust.  I suppose I could start eating the pie filling and leave the pie crust, but the pie is loaded with sugar as well.  I have pretty much given up every kind of dessert.  The first thing to go, was one of my most favorite of all snacks.  A carameled nut roll will put me out of commission for three days.  One of the LAST things to go, is a simple sandwich.  Needless to say, I Love bread.  What are the alternatives??  Sorry little boy, no bread, is the alternative.  I still buy ham and cheese, but I can not eat ham and cheese sandwiches.  But, of course, if I tell anyone else all these things they are absolutely certain I must be Gluten Intolerant.  One of the areas that I have not yet done much research is in the grains, but I do know we are ALL pretty much Gluten Intolerant.  It seems we were introduced to grains somewhat recently,  some say by aliens, who brought it to Earth for us to cultivate after the Great Deluge.  I am not opposed to this view, as they appear somewhat suddenly on the scene in Mesopotamia, along with animal husbandry.  One way or another, our bodies do not seem to handle certain foods very well.  Some foods are toxic, if not well cooked, like lentils.  This is actually a design plan by the plants themselves.  They really have no interest in animals eating them, except in a limited fashion to distribute their seeds.  An excerpt from Loren Cordain, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, "...Cereal grains (wheat, rye, barley, oats, corn, rice, sorghum etc)  and legumes (beans, lentils, peas, garbanzo beans, peanuts etc.) most typically have evolved toxic compounds to prevent predation."  Two major problems caused by consuming these toxins,  1.) Reduced natural insulin production resulting in Diabetes and 2.)  Joint inflammation, resulting in Arthritis.  How many people know this??  Try telling someone he has to stop eating beans and other lentils; all of the above mentioned grains, especially wheat; and add to that the entire Nightshade family, (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  I can almost guarantee you no one will take your advice.
