Cooking Food to Death

The Dangerous Trans Fat Process:

1. When a fat gets cooked for as little as 3 minutes at relatively low temperatures, it not only kills the inherent enzyme in that food that is so vital in breaking down and delivering the fat, it also flips the hydrogen bonds into a trans fat.
2. The biochemistry has been radically changed, the trans fat molecule is unstable, and it can't be broken down properly.
3. The molecules of cooked fat solidify like a piece of gum then get stuck on the inside of the artery walls, becoming arterial plaque.
4. The more the trans fat gets stuck to the arterial walls, the more likely it is to develop blockages throughout the entire arterial system. This clogs the artery. The narrower it becomes, the more likely it is that high stress or poor dietary habits will encourage this plaque to break off.
5. If this happens in any one of the arteries that supply blood to the heart, an interruption occurs in the electric current going to the heart, which can trigger a heart attack. (Most fast-food places are cooking with hydrogenated oils that have already been turned into trans fats.)

Cooked vs. Raw, Live vs. Dead

In Viktoras Kulvinskas' 1975 book called, Survival into the 21st Century, Dr. Kouchakoff divided leukocytosis into four groups according to the way these foods react in the blood. They are as follows:

1. Raw food produces no increase in white cells. He also found that a largely raw food diet offsets the adverse effect of a small amount of cooked food so as not to cause leukocytosis.
2. Commonly cooked foods produce leukocytosis. He also found that cooked food acts as a poison in the body, especially if ingested hot (more than 100°F). Most cooked foods are eaten at 180°F.
3. Pressure-cooked foods produce greater leukocytosis than non-pressure-cooked foods.
4. Manufactured foods such as wine, vinegar, white sugar, and ham offend the most. Prepared or processed meat (cooked, smoked, and salted) brought on the most violent reactions equivalent to the leukocytosis count manifest in poisoning.
