Part 4: The Root Cause of Obesity – Impure Blood and the Birth of a Hundred Diseases
filthy blood
Blood turbidity breeds a hundred diseases
Obese individuals not only have a lot of fat in their bodies, but also various waste products and toxic substances such as metabolic byproducts. If left unchecked, the blood will eventually become murky and viscous, hindering blood circulation.
This condition, characterized by both poor blood circulation and impure blood, is called "blood stasis."
When blood becomes murky and viscous, it can no longer deliver nutrients and oxygen to the body's 60 trillion cells. As a result, the supply of white blood cells and immune substances is insufficient, causing abnormalities in various cells and tissues, and ultimately leading to a variety of diseases.
Improper diet is the main cause of blood turbidity.
Many people are now troubled by diseases with the word "high" in their names, such as high weight, high cholesterol, high blood sugar, high uric acid, and high blood pressure.
These diseases are enough to show that modern people "eat too much".
We once conducted an animal experiment comparing mice that were always fully fed with mice that were only 80% full. We found that the cancer incidence rate in the fully fed mice was more than five times higher than in the 80% full mice. The same applies to humans; the higher the degree of obesity, the higher the chance of developing cancer. Therefore, the leading cause of death in Japan is actually "polyphagia" (also known as hyperphagia nervosa).
Overeating can cause excess cholesterol, triglycerides, sugar, salt, and other substances to accumulate in the blood, as well as toxins such as uric acid, lactic acid, pyruvic acid, amines, and ammonia, thus polluting the blood. It can be said that overeating is a major cause of many diseases.
In addition, a diet that does not conform to the shape of teeth can also pollute the blood.
Many doctors believe that "one of the main components of the 60 trillion human cells is protein, so we must consume sufficient high-quality animal protein."
However, land animals such as elephants weighing up to 6,500 kilograms and giraffes standing 6 meters tall, as well as cattle that provide us with milk and meat, only eat grass, which shows that the idea of consuming more animal protein is one-sided.
I believe a healthy diet should correspond to the shape of one's teeth. For example, large animals like elephants, giraffes, and cows have flat teeth, so they are herbivores; while lions, cheetahs, and tigers have sharp teeth, so they are carnivores.
Humans have 32 teeth, of which 20 (62.5%) are molars (used for eating grains), 8 (25%) are incisors (used for eating fruits and vegetables), and 4 (12.5%) are canines (used for eating fish and meat). If your diet matches the shape of your teeth, you can maintain good health and prevent disease.
Three million years ago in Africa, apes evolved into humans. Some of them migrated north to colder Europe. Wild vegetables and fruits were scarce there, forcing them to hunt and raise livestock, thus developing a meat-eating diet. After living there for thousands of years, Europeans developed a nutritional science based on meat, eggs, milk, cheese, and other staple foods, which later became the foundation of modern nutrition.
Dietary structure should conform to the shape of teeth.
It is well known that modern nutrition science places great emphasis on animal protein; however, consuming animal protein inevitably leads to an increased intake of animal fat. Cancer, diabetes, gout, thrombosis (cerebral infarction and myocardial infarction), obesity, and other diseases cause considerable distress for modern people, and animal fat is a breeding ground for these diseases.
Consuming foods that do not conform to the shape of teeth, known as "dental caries" (meaning inconsistency), can lead to diseases such as hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, and hyperuricemia.
As the saying goes, "Food is the first necessity of the people," and improper diet can be said to be the main cause of blood pollution.
Lack of exercise can also cause blood turbidity.
The liver accounts for about 1/60 of body weight (about 1 kilogram), making it a relatively large organ. The skin, on the other hand, weighs about 3 kilograms and is an even larger organ than the liver.
Although the amount of waste excreted through the sweat glands and sebaceous glands of the skin is less than 1/500 of that excreted by the lungs, it is a very important organ with respiratory, absorptive, and immune-producing functions. It also assists circulatory organs (such as the heart) by expanding and contracting blood vessel walls, and protects against the invasion of harmful external substances.
The largest organ than the skin is muscle, which accounts for about 50% of body weight.
40% of body temperature is generated by muscles. Muscle activity causes blood vessels running between muscles to repeatedly contract and expand, promoting blood circulation and strengthening heart function. Therefore, muscles are the largest organ in the human body.
Insufficient exercise can lead to poor blood flow, reduced muscle heat production, and impaired burning of toxins in the blood, ultimately resulting in blood contamination.
With improved living standards and the widespread availability of vacuum cleaners and washing machines, coupled with increasingly advanced transportation, most Japanese people are experiencing insufficient physical activity, leading to a lack of exercise. This is a major reason for the low body temperature prevalence among the Japanese population and one of the primary causes of blood contamination.
