Aansluitend op bovenstaande post deze post op CureZone, die wat mij betreft de spijker precies op z'n kop slaat. De meest treffende uitspraken geef ik hier dikgedrukt weer:
Quote:
I think there's less here than meets the eye. Andreas had a weak constitution from birth - look at the countless serious conditions he had. Then he "dies" for several minutes from malaria by permitting himself to experience dangerously high body temperature (refusing to take pills to clear the fever). Your health status throughout childhood is a good marker for your overall destiny where health and longevity are concerned.
He keeps himself alive and functioning against the odds through cleanses and diet. But he's against consumption of all animal products (except apparently for ghee), even something as healthful as raw eggs. Almost a vegan, apparently. Also, I don't think he approved of vitamin supplements.
This kind of diet and heavy cleansing is fine for a person who's spent 50 or so years stuffing himself with red meat, etc. But for a naturally delicate person, it's deadly after a period of time. There's a point of diminishing returns where total vegetarianism + neverending cleansing are concerned. I submit that Andreas' deficient diet ultimately got the better of him.
Read up on detox. Plenty of complete protein is needed to get the liver to deal properly with toxicity in the body. An incompletely detoxed body is prey for just about anything.
I love animals and rarely eat them because I don't need this. But I suspect that Andreas would have benefited from a good slug of Weston Price style nutrition (some of which is repulsive, I know - like eating raw liver!)
I feel like a sh*t for talking about the dead this way, I'm hesitant to post this. I like Andreas and support almost all of his teachings; he was so right when so many others were so wrong. But somewhere along the line he did not care for himself properly, and who knows why. We will not ever know.
God rest his soul.
