The Market Outfit

Robert Atkins that died of an accident last year at the age of 72 came to the development of this diet in 60s. As he wrote in his book he has never had will-power enough to overcome hunger. And hunger is a companion of every standard and propagandized diet. And as a real scientist after creation his own diet he tried it on himself. It worked! As he was a cardiologist and had his own clinic he began to offer his diet to those sick people which came to him for help. They asked to rescue them from obesity. During 30 years of his practice the diet rescued from obesity and changed the life more than 60 millions people. His book “Revolution in nutrition” was sold out millions circulations and was translated into many languages. His clinic in Manhattan receives thousands of patients daily that suffer from obesity…

Nevertheless Doctor Atkins is the most damned doctor among dietarians. So why did he get his anathema?

The cause is all he says contradicts standard dietology. How wonderful and logical was everything before hi came! If you have obesity you should eat fewer fats, if you have heightened cholesterol you should forget about eggs, if you have high blood pressure you shouldn’t eat salt. It is clear and natural as the sun rises in the east and sits in the west. But we know now that it is the earth that turns round the sun and not on the contrary. Everything is simple and logical. The only thing is bad… It doesn’t work. Doesn’t work? It is nonsense, trifle.

Pharmacological companies are always glad to help you with hundred or two tablets. The only but is that they don’t treat but remove symptoms so you couldn’t stop eating them or everything will come back. And all this well worked system, all this big business, all modern dietarian recommendations which are almost as religion are supposed to be wasted?! As Atkins offers absolutely different approach. It is completely opposite. He tells you to eat more meat, eggs, don’t be afraid of fats as they will even useful if you eat them WITHOUT CARBOHYDRATES.

When we heard about Atkins’ diet for the first time from our friend we rejected it resolutely as nonsense. How can it be to lose weight while eating fats and meat? This is the direct path to scaffold. With such diet one couldn’t avoid vessel atherosclerosis, heart attack and insult.

Nevertheless we read the article in “New England Journal of Medicine” (people of medical profession know that it is a very prestigious magazine) where was said about tremendous comparative researches of Atkins’ diet and standard diet which is recommended by modern science of nutrition. And we decided to read a book by Atkins and we have never regretted that. It’s a perfect book! And Atkins by himself is a very good DOCTOR. Doctor that doesn’t resemble those who hasten to give a prescription on something for headache or cholesterol lowering tablets. He is convinced that the majority of cardiovascular diseases and many other diseases of 20th century is the result of wrong and not balanced nutrition.

Atkins is not only declaring this clear truth but also make a very interesting basis under all his observations. His long-term experience showed that the main whip of our century is over consuming of carbohydrates. Besides inborn defects doctors distinguished stenocardia and perhaps rheumatism. And nowadays the death of cardiovascular diseases is on the first place. If to make a diagram of consuming carbohydrates (also sugar and its derivatives, flour and all products made of it, fruit juices and so on) we’ll see prompt hyperbolic rise; especially after World War II. And if to compare this curved line with death from cardiovascular diseases curved it will appear that they are almost parallel.

But the main thing that amazes many researchers and readers and accordingly drives to frenzy modern “dieticians” is that Atkins for the first time in dietetics gave in the hands of people who are losing their weight a measuring device. It’s a simple and available for everyone device that allow people to observe what way metabolism changes. He taught people how to switch on a physiological process of burning their own fats with the help of physiological ketosis. We don’t have any doubts that some time pass and Atkins’ contribution to our understanding of the questions “Why do we put on weight” and “How should we lose our weight” will be not only valued highly by slow and conservative medical society but also all food and pharmacological industries will have to reconstruct on production low-carbohydrates products. And these products should be reach with protein, uncarbonated and fish fats. Those businessmen who will invest this way as the first certainly will conquer milliard market.

What differ Atkins’ diet from other diets? At first it’s not only diet when you can fast lose superfluous kilos, but it’s a program that is based on science ground. And it is full of detailed recommendations how to control your metabolism so you won’t put on kilos that you’ve lost. Atkins propagandizes healthy diet rich with proteins and fats which are necessary for normal metabolism. e also insists on eating lots of fish fats which we thought only children should eat (omega fats) and multivitamins with adding selenium and other minerals. They confirmed in many researches their preventive anticarcinogenic properties.

The certain positive side of this program is complete dismissal of any junk food such as coca-cola, chips, pizzas, McDonalds, snickers and so on. Physical exercises take special place in this program. As Atkins write that the only excuse to stop physical exercises he accept the age after 100. But even in this case he thinks one should make an appointment with him so he could make special physical exercises complex for such people. As Atkins was practiced cardiologist his program is invoked to stop a series of diseases. It is hypertension at first, and also diabetes of second type, vessels atherosclerosis, candida. Doctor Atkins died of an accident. He slipped in winter 2002 in New-York. His body dissecting showed that his vessels were clear in spite of his rather solid age.

So what is Atkins’ diet consisting of? You can’t reject carbohydrates completely. By the way Atkins doesn’t call for this. He just says that one should reduce them to minimum. To be exact one should reduce it to such individual level when there is no favorable situation for creating so unloved with us fat in fatty tissue.

Are you a sugar user? More and more people are resorting to high sugar drinks and snacks for a quick jolt of energy. But the trouble with using sugar for an energy boost, is that it sets up a roller-coaster effect that can soon become addictive and lead to health problems down the line. Recent research has revealed an acupressure point that boosts energy and alertness naturally and with no come down.

The Highs & Lows of using Sugar for Energy
Soon after a sugar fix you start buzzing with energy, but it’s a short lived boost that soon swings sharply the other way with an energy slump. If you address that slump by eating or drinking something else high in sugar, you’ll get that energy rush again, followed by another slump.

Using sugar for energy gives sporadic results at best, but there are health dangers too. Diabetes II is an ever increasing risk in a world where we’re rushing to get more done and fighting daily battles with stress and fatigue. Sugar increases insulin levels and raises blood triglycerides which increases the risk of developing late onset Diabetes.

Acupressure Energy Boost
Acupuncture and Acupressure share a network of vital energy points situated along meridian channels throughout the body. For thousands of years these points have been used to influence qi (chi), the body’s subtle energy force, for a wide variety of physical and emotional benefits.

The University of Michigan recently finished an intensive study that set out to prove that acupressure can provide an effective natural energy boost. Lead researcher, Dr Richard Harris, explains “it [acupressure] seems to stimulate the nerves that moderate attention and alertness”.

Tapping the Sweet Spot
Students in the trial experimented with massaging five acupressure points for three minutes each. The most effective and stimulating point was the Si Shen Chong point, known to acupuncturists as one of the extraordinary acupoints (HN1), and found right in the centre of the top of the head.

Participants in the trial found the most effective way to get a sugar-free energy boost, was to tap this point lightly with the fingertips for two or three minutes.

The point used in this trial is one of the extra energy points sometimes used in the EFT meridian points tapping sequence. The beauty of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is that it uses a series of potent acupuncture and acupressure points that not only give the body a natural energy boost, but can also be used to control addictive cravings for sugar and popular stimulants like caffeine.

EFT uses a set sequence of 12 acupuncture points known to give relief from a wide range of emotional and physical symptoms. As found in the University of Michigan study, results are easily and reliably achieved by tapping lightly on the acupuncture points with the fingertips.

Recently I had the opportunity to meet a long term mystic. During a lecture he was presenting on a mystic’s role in society, he uttered the words “inner warrior,” while looking directly at me. I had never met him and wondered if he knew I was the author of Mystic Warrior. His lecture was fascinating and I couldn’t wait for a chance to speak to him without distraction.

In accord with the universal law of attraction, my intense desire precipitated our meeting quickly. Less than an hour later, at the hotel lunch buffet, he was walking towards my table carrying a plate of food. I jumped up and invited him to join us, which he accepted.

I asked him whether he knew I had written Mystic Warrior. Calmly, he smiled and answered that he didn’t. He explained that when he lectures, “it’s not me that’s speaking, but rather, the ‘Master Within.’” He was referring to the divine aspect at the heart of every soul - the divine aspect that all mystics strive to tap into.

Then I asked him the question that his lecture had triggered. “Is it permissible, from a mystic perspective, to use your spiritual power to intervene and thwart the ‘evil intentions’ of someone that is ‘abusing an innocent?’”

Now you must understand the significance of this question from a mystic perspective. In the mystic’s view of the world all is one. There is no good vs. evil. The cause of “evil” is ignorance.

What I was asking is, what is worse, using your power to control someone or allowing that someone to control another? This is the mystic equivalent of a Hollywood blockbuster plot crisis. In the movie, Superman, for example, it’s when Superman has to decide between saving the world or Lois Lane. Either way, someone is going to lose. Philosophers describe it as “the lesser of two evils.”

First, he explained that I was assuming the act to be “evil,” and that was only my perception. Next, he explained that my perception of the “abuse” could also be mistaken. He went on to state that there could be a number of reasons why inaction might be better than action for all parties involved. Karma may be involved. The dispute may go back lifetimes. There was no possible way I could take into consideration all the factors that were governing the parties’ behavior. The best course of action would be for me to send unconditional love to both parties.

I held my tongue and told him I understood all that. Then I added, “What if you knew the person’s motivation was pure self interest?”

“How would you know?” he countered.

“What if the first party communicated that to you?”

He nodded, but repeated his assertion that the safest course of action was to send unconditional love.

Then I asked, “What if the abuse affected a large number of people?”

He paused and looked at me. He recognized that this was a topic I had pondered at great length. Every answer he had offered, I had already considered and came back with another question. That’s when he asked, “Who is directing you?”

He wasn’t referring to some external source. He was referring to one of the most fundamental teachings of mysticism, teachings that have been conveyed by numerous, great religions.

I smiled and he recognized that I understood him. I started to laugh.

I sat back in my chair, awed by the elegance of such a simple question and the thoughts it had spawned. The kingdom of God lies within. The goal of the evolving soul is to align his will with the will of God. If you want to know how to handle any situation, consult the Master Within.

Now it’s true that there are plenty of psychopaths that claim God told them to do some despicable act, and we can be confident they’re mistaken. And it’s also true that a person’s understanding of the Master Within will change over time, as the person’s wisdom increases and his or her ability to attune with the one source of all creation improves.

But as a fundamental guide to how you should act in every situation, there is no simpler and more elegant advice than to ask for direction from the Master Within.
