1. Magnitude of the Problem:1
The table below presents the magnitude
of the problem of degenerative diseases in the United
States as of 1980. These are brought on by a faulty
lifestyle of refined, adulterated foods, sedentary
living, and related factors and cause disability and
premature death. In this introduction to these problems
let us briefly look at the reasons why these develop
and what we can do to prevent them and restore a measure
of the lost health.
| Hypertension 160/95 or above | 22,000,000 |
| Hypertension 140/95 to 160/95 | 40,000,000 |
| Cardiovascular Diseases | causes 54% of deaths |
| Heart attacks every year | 1,250,000 |
| New Diabetics every year | 500,000 |
| Surgery for Gallstones every year | 500,000 |
| Cancer Deaths every year | 462,000 |
| Rheumatoid Arthritis | 2,000,000 |
| Osteoporosis | 20,000,000 |
| New Cases with Strokes every year | 450,000 |
| Major Degenerative Arthritis (over age 50) | 250,000 |
2. Reasons Behind the Marked Increase in Degenerative Diseases:1
Two gradual changes-over the past century, a worsening of lifestyle and an increase in scientific medical knowledge, built up simultaneously and influenced the development of a class of diseases known as "degenerative diseases." The increase in scientific knowledge produced unhealthful food and a means for sedentary lifestyle that is detrimental to health. At the same time it gave us greater knowledge of the cause and treatment of disease and ways to prolong life.
The medical care 100-200 years ago happened as follows:
3. Changes in Science and Lifestyle that Affect Type of Disease:
A combination of isolation technic & improved sanitation, vaccines, antibiotics, fantastic laboratory capabilities, artificial kidneys, bypass surgery, intensive care, organ transplants, etc., has enabled many people to live longer with serious, complicated ailments. Many serious, infectious ailments have virtually been eliminated, only to be replaced by the plague of heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, etc., ailments related to faulty lifestyle.
Technology has given us refined, depleted, modified, chemically preserved food. It has enabled us to be a sedentary nation of spectators with limited physical activity. Worry, anxiety, tension, tobacco, alcohol, drugs, have added to the stress on the body and mind. The combined result of all this has caused a marked increase in degenerative diseases.
If we add inflation and the horrendous increase in malpractice insurance premiums to this marked increase in cost of degenerative diseases, we have even greater health care costs. The health insurance system falters. Then government [Medicare] agencies begin to witch hunt to find someone to blame. Itemized bills and "documentation" paper-work proliferate to satisfy insurance regulations. We have the capacity to bankrupt nations unless something is done to stem the tide.
4. Three Facets to the Health Care System Need Balanced Attention:
T
he
three facets of health care can be illustrated by
a triangle. The first leg is good health by legislative
action. For the sake of the common good, laws are
passed for prevention of or quarantine against a contagious
diseases. Examples of this include: laws to have a
pure water supply free from chemical pollution or
harmful germs; proper sewage disposal; vaccination
against smallpox, poliomyelitis, etc.; and the isolation
of communicable diseases like measles, tuberculosis,
etc. The second leg is consultative medicine, the
major type of medical care available and includes
the consultation of a person with his physician for
various ailments. The third leg, the one which should
be the basis of all good medicine, is preventive medicine,
the change to a lifestyle to such as the NEWSTART
program, one which will prevent or postpone all possible
ailments.
Three important questions need be asked of each of the three facets of our health care.
Questions:
(a) Is this activity scientifically valid? Yes or No
(b) Is this approach to the problem effective? Yes or No
(c) Is it cost effective? Can we afford it? Yes or No
5. Native (Aboriginal) Groups Versus"Westernized" (Civilized) Societies:
One of the important bits of evidence
about the cause of degenerative diseases comes from
a comparison of the lifestyle and the type of diseases
that civilized people get with the same information
about the simple aboriginal societies. The work of
Ancel Keys and associates2 by studies of three groups
of Japanese has shown that the difference in type
of diseases was not due to "survival of the fittest"
in the natural native populations. The table below
presents pertinent information that they found in
full-blooded Japanese who lived a simple rural lifestyle
on the Japan mainland, Japanese who had migrated to
Hawaii, and Japanese who had migrated to the United
States and had adopted the American lifestyle.

In general, the indigienous (Japanese,
etc.) subsist on a diet in which about 90% of the
calories come from plant sources, avoid all refined
foods, and are of necessity quite physically active.
Whereas, those in "Westernized" cultures
eat a diet in which 90% of their calories come from
animal products or refined products like vegetable
fats, sugar, and refined cereal. Only about 10% of
calories come from natural plant produce. They are
usually sedentary.

6. "Risk Factor" Studies:
Studies by many investigators, particularly those of Framingham, MA, have elucidated a number of factors that increase the risk of degenerative diseases.3,4 The interaction of these factors is illustrated below.
7. Studies of Athero-Arteriosclerosis in Animals:
Development of Atherosclerosis: Many investigators have studied the effect of oil, lard, margarine, dairy fat, shortening, meat fat, or peanut oil along with cholesterol on the development of athero-arteriosclerosis in animals like monkeys, pigs, chickens, or rabbits. Basically, the combined use of laboratory chow with added cholesterol (usually 0.5%) and the fat in the diet (about 40% of calories) resulted in three types of lesions:5,6
Coconut oil: atheromatous plugging
of arteries
Milk fat: fatty infiltration of arteries
Peanut oil: fibrous thickening of the wall of the
arteries
Mixed oil: a mixed lesion with all three components
Recently, Alderson and associates7 have questioned the findings of Wissler and associates that peanut oil gram for gram is more atherogenic then other oils. It should be noted, however, that their "normal control" diet was not natural produce, but included added fat and cholesterol similar to the ARA diet which is associated with gradual development of atherosclerosis.
Regression of Atherosclerosis: Armstrong and associates8 placed three groups of monkeys on a lab chow diet of cereal and fruit plus added cholesterol and oil for 18 months. Examination of group one showed 58% average closure of the coronary arteries. In the second group the cholesterol and added fat were discontinued and they ate only monkey chow. After 40 months the coronary arterial lesions had been cleared until there was only 17% average closure. In the third group the cholesterol was discontinued, but the oil was continued. These had regression of the lesion from 58% to 21% closure of the coronary arteries after 40 months. Other researchers have demonstrated unquestioned regression of atherosclerosis in monkeys by monkey chow alone.9,10
8. Atherosclerosis is Progressive in the Human:
Athero-arteriosclerosis progressively
develops in the human. Studies in grade school children
in Bogalusa, Louisiana, show that fatty streaks begin
in early childhood.11 Autopsies of service men killed
in action in the Korean and Vietnam War revealed that
45 to 77% of the healthy young men had some degree
of atherosclerosis and 5 to 15% had severe narrowing
of coronary arteries.12,13
Studies in the human confirm that a low fat, no cholesterol,
high fiber natural vegetarian diet results in regression
of atherosclerosis.14-18
Coronary angiography demonstrates that the usual patient with angina has 90 to 100% plugging of the right coronary artery and a 60 to 70% plugging of the anterior descending or circumflex branch of the left coronary artery before symptoms start. Coronary Heart Disease causes 54% of deaths in the USA. About half of these die with their first heart attack.
9. Facts About Hypertension:
Blood pressure increases progressively with increasing age in civilized countries. The increase in systolic pressure with age is especially evident in women above age 50. However, blood pressure remains the same from age 25 to 65 in aboriginal societies in Fiji, New Guinea, and New Hebrides.19 Experiments in animals indicate that a decrease in the internal diameter of arterioles of only six microns, from 33 to 27 microns (an 18% decrease), resulted in a change of pressure from 138/73 to 194/113.20 Administration of a chemical to block formation of collagen and fibrous tissue prevented the development of hypertension from the mineralcorticoid, DOCA, and salt.
The major points in the pathophysiology of primary (essential) hypertension can be outlined from the available facts as follows: A diet of laboratory chow plus added free fat and cholesterol results in a pronounced increase in elastin and collagen of the arteries.21 When peanut oil was the source of the free fats, a marked overgrowth of fibrous tissue was the characteristic arterial lesion.5 Meat, milk and eggs are relatively low in polyunsaturated fats and a major source of arachidonic acid, the omega-6 precursor of the "series 2" prostaglandins and thromboxanes. This series induces vasoconstriction, sticky platelets, and an increase in blood pressure. Prostaglandins and thromboxane of "series 1 and series 3" are vasodilators and blood pressure-lowering chemils.22-24 These two series are derived from Y-lenolenic (omega-6) and a-lenolenic acid (omega-3). These two essential oils may make up 50% or more of the fat in natural plant produce. On the other hand, the fat of meat, milk, and egg contain 11% or less as these fats and are almost entirely of the omega-6 fats.25 Thus animal fat directs the chemistry toward vasoconstrictor chemistry. Faulty response to stress, will add further vasoconstriction to the problem, at least intermittently. An excess of sodium salt results in an increase in arterial sodium, a thickening of the arterial wall, and a stiffening of the arteries.25,26
We have found that 75% of hypertensives maintain a blood pressure to below 140/90 without medication within three weeks after starting the NEWSTART program. A dramatic decrease in need for antihypertensive medications is observed after only four days on the program. 27
10. Facts About Gallstones in the USA:
The story about cholesterol is simple. (a) The body can make the cholesterol phenanthrene ring, but (b) it cannot break it down. (c) The more oily-greasy food that we eat, whether vegetable or animal fat, the more cholesterol the liver and small intestines make. (d) The main route of elimination of cholesterol is via bile from the liver and out in the feces. (e) Without adequate fiber and plant sterols in the diet, cholesterol builds up in the body, and the concentration of cholesterol increases in the bile. As the bile is concentrated 4 to 10-fold in the gallbladder, the cholesterol crystallizes and forms stones. Thus the gradual accumulation of cholesterol in the body plugs the arteries and forms gallstones.
11. Facts About Strokes:
12. Facts About Obesity:
13. Facts About Diabetes:30,31
14. Facts
About Degenerative (Osteoarthritis) Joint Disease:
Back ailments constitute the greatest expense for
workman's compensation.
250,000 over the age of 50 suffer chronically from degenerative arthritis.
80% of hypertensives have moderate or worse degenerative arthritis and/or degenerative disc disease of the spine.
"The causes for the degeneration [joint] are apparently numerous and varied. But the commonest type of the disease is the result of a continued demand for excessive function in the face of a decreasing efficiency of blond supply."32
The arteries most severely involved with athero-arteriosclerosis are the arteries to the backbone.33
Mice fed cholesterol developed ankylosis of spine and herniated discs.34
Continued heavy work while the arteries to the back become smaller on the inside and/or become plugged results in arthritis of the spine and/or herniation of the discs between the vertebrae.
15. Facts About Osteoporosis:
20 million Americans have osteoporosis with inadequate calcium in the bones.
Over 2,000,000 have severe osteoporosis.
An average-sized woman may after the menopause lose up to 6 in. of height.
Important factors are:35
16. Facts About Allergies:37-40
A disease caused by substances harmful only to the person who is sensitive to them.
These substances, foreign to the body may gain entrance to the body:
Through the nose and mouth - dust, pollens, sprays which may cause hay fever, postnasal drip, asthma, skin rash.
Through the stomach & intestines - milk, eggs, wheat, mold residue, and drugs are the worst offenders and cause colic, diarrhea, etc.
Through the skin - cosmetics, soap, dyes, etc., which can cause eczema.
The foreign substance unites in the body with chemicals which cause some cells to release histamine-like substances which cause the symptoms.
A total program includes avoidance of the most common offenders such as all milk products, eggs, greasy foods, molds, & known specific foods. Use of a small electrostatic room filter in the sleeping and work area.
16. Facts About Rheumatoid Arthritis:41,42
2,000,000 patients have rheumatoid arthritis, women 3 to 1 over men.
It is the result of a chronic infection (viral or amoeba germ) plus a faulty immune response to it by the body.
A simple, total vegetarian diet of unrefined food usually results in remission of the condition.
It appears that fats in natural produce enable the immune system to generate a type of leukotriene that can deal with the problem.
Related conditions, such as lupus erythematosis and polymyalgia rheumatica, have responded, we found.
17. Facts About Cancer:43,44

18. Other Diseases that Respond to Diet and Lifestyle Change:1
Lupus Erythematosis: We have had two patients respond to the program to the extent that after several months their glucocorticoids were gradually discontinued, and the patient remained symptom free. Their sedimentation rate remained normal. Other evidence supports our findings.45
Multiple Sclerosis: For years Swank and associates have shown that a low-fat diet can reduce the frequency and severity of multiple sclerosis.46
Along with and following the pioneering
work of Burkitt and Trowell, several conditions have
been shown to be related to the diet of civilized
societies and relatively absent from aboriginal societies
until they begin to partake of the faulty lifestyle
of the civilized. The type of disease is dependent
upon several factors besides diet and activity, such
as inherent weakness, faulty distribution of soil
nutrients, or types of environmental pollutants or
stressors, but diet is the major factor. It takes
time on the faulty diet, etc., to produce the derangements.
Below is an hourglass arrangement of many of these:

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE DEGENERATED DISC OSTEOARTHRITIS OSTEOPOROSIS APPENDICITIS GALLSTONES DIABETES OBESITY STROKES HEMORRHOIDS HIATAL HERNIA DENTAL CARIES RECTAL POLYPS VARICOSE VEINS CANCER OF COLON CANCER OF PROSTATE DIVERTICULOSIS OF COLON CANCER OF BREAST OR OVARY |
19. The
Answer to These Problems: Our Bodies Need a "NEWSTART":
|
"THE TRUE REMEDIES" "Pure air, sunlight, abstemiousness,
rest, exercise, |
Nutrition | Natural produce without refining, simply prepared, without spices or grease. |
| Exercise | Walk or Walk fast or Jog or Gardening | |
| Water | Pure & soft, 8-10 glasses a day; between meals only. | |
| Sunshine | Proper amount, yet avoid burning. | |
| Temperance | Avoid –
Tobacco, Alcohol, Coffee, Tea, and other Caffeine Beverages. |
|
| Air | Clean fresh "ionized"
air. Free of Dust, Smog, Pollution. |
|
| Rest | Adequate sleep regularly. The body works best with good habits of sleeping & eating. | |
| Trust in God | For forgiveness, for the desire to live right. For wisdom & power to do it. |
20. Dietary
a. Various conditioning centers report clearcut recovery of a measure of health with a decrease in angina in CHD, ameloriation of diabetes and hypertension from a change in lifestyle. Emphasis has been on proper diet, graduated exercise, and avoidance of harmful agents. We have found that a low fat (10-15% of calories), no cholesterol, high fiber diet will lower serum lipids with an average drop of 18-22% in serum cholesterol and an average decrease of 23-53% in triglycerides, depending upon the initial levels, after only two weeks on the program in 90% of men and 62% of women.
b . The "Therapeutic Diet" is designed to get the most rapid removal of excess tissue cholesterol from the body. The removal of cholesterol is relatively slow. However, it would seem wiser to be on a program which would gradually remove the cholesterol deposits rather than on one which would gradually plug up the arteries. Chemical changes occur with the therapeutic diet which result in better circulation and tissue function within ten days even before much cholesterol has been removed.
After the weight has come down, the
person may use the "Preventive Diet" and
eat some of the naturally high fat foods such as soybeans,
olives, nuts, and avocados to keep from becoming too
low in weight. Still avoid using the visible, "free,"
vegetable, animal fats, peanut butter and fish. The
Cholesterol and Triglycerides should be monitored
when this is done.

Since, in civilized countries, foods are grown under clean and sanitary conditions, are washed thoroughly, and are generally free of gems, there is no vitamin B-12 (made by germs) residue in the produce. Therefore, take 50-500 mcg,of B-12, chewed with the food, once a week. Buy produce from widely differing growing areas to get all trace elements. If you go easy on salt, use iodized sea salt and take 150 mcg daily of kelp iodine.
Optional
Items Not Recommended, but Allowed - Use Sparingly
If At All!!
| DAIRY PRODUCTS | |
| Non-fat Milk,
Non-fat Yogurt Buttermilk Non-Fermented Cheese |
Use Grade-A From Healthy Cows & Boil the milk 10-15 minutes to kill cancer viruses & other germs. |
| EGG WHITE | |
| If extra protein needed | From healthy
chickens & thoroughly cooked. |
