Excerpts:
Nomads in Algeria have long said, “Water is the soul, milk is the life.” They may be proved right by emerging reports that camel milk, the drink of nomadic peoples from Mongolia to India, may have a healing effect on various diseases.
Now parents from around the world, as I did in 2007, are also reporting reduced […]

We physicians with all our training, knowledge and authority often acquire a rather large ego that tends to make it difficult to admit we are wrong. So, here it is. I freely admit to being wrong. As a heart surgeon with 25 years experience, having performed over 5,000 open-heart surgeries, today is my day to right the wrong with medical and scientific fact. I trained for many years with other prominent physicians labelled “opinion makers.” Bombarded with scientific literature, continually attending education seminars, we opinion makers insisted heart disease resulted from the simple fact of elevated blood cholesterol. The only accepted therapy was prescribing medications to lower cholesterol and a diet that severely restricted fat intake. The latter of course we insisted would lower cholesterol and heart disease. Deviations from these recommendations were considered heresy and could quite possibly result in malpractice. These recommendations are no longer scientifically or morally defensible. The long-established dietary recommendations have created epidemics of obesity and diabetes, the consequences of which dwarf any historical plague in terms of mortality, human suffering and dire economic consequences. Despite the fact that 25% of the population takes expensive statin medications and despite the fact we have reduced the fat content of our diets, more Americans will die this year of heart disease than ever before.

"Give us today our daily bread." (Mat 6:11) These famous words are recorded in what is known as “The Lord’s Prayer” and are part of a “model prayer” that Jesus gave to his disciples instructing them how to pray. “Bread” in the Bible and in the Middle East represented life itself, as grains used to make bread were the staple food. Therefore the meaning of “bread” in this verse represents all food needed daily to sustain us. When we pray this prayer, we are acknowledging that all sustenance comes from God, and that we are dependent upon him to give it to us every day.
