Gum or Bacteria?

I’ve been wondering about what happens to the food we put into our mouths. The small intestine is about 20 feet long. During the foods travel, nutrients and building materials from the food actually soak through the spongy walls into the bloodstream to go to the liver for processing into sugar. The remaining solid material goes on into the large intestine, to be eliminated as waste.

Much of the highly processed foods we eat act like glue in the warm wet interior of our bodies. It is gooey and dry and sticks to the walls like chewing gum. There is very little raw liquid in it to soak through and it is too thick and sludgy to travel freely all the way into the large intestine and out the exit.

Our bodies need raw materials. Our bodies are made to process raw materials and turn them into blood, muscle and tissue. We are the processor. Therefore, it only makes sense that we don’t need food that is already processed. Processed food is what is at the end of the road in our intestines heading into the sewer.  Food that has already been processed is actually waste. So the bulk of the food that we put into our mouths is waste even before it goes in. Decades of this dense gluey food eventually packs solid onto the walls of our spongy intestines until even the raw materials of real food that we may ingest can’t get through into the bloodstream.

Pasteurizing was invented to kill bacteria. The problem with that is bacteria is a building block of all life. Without bacteria there is no life. Without bacteria on this planet we would be Mars or the Moon. Animals defecate and die in the forest and do you smell decay there? No, because of bacteria constantly transforming life. If we kill the bacteria in our food, supposedly what we are building our bodies with, if we kill the bacteria in our bodies with antibiotics, doesn’t it follow that we are killing ourselves?

All life on this planet is interconnected. From the smallest bacteria to the largest tree, we need each other. The biggest problem with our society is that we have no respect for life. Therefore it follows that we have no self-respect. No wonder we kill so easily without remorse.
