In The News

Mad Cow Disease, or
bovine
spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), is thought to be caused by
an infectious protein called a prion. Because of their
unique structure, prions are practically indestructible.
They can remain infectious for years in the soil. They are
not adequately destroyed by cooking, canning, freezing,
usable doses of radiation, digestive enzymes, or stomach
acid. Even heat sterilization and domestic bleach have
little or no effect. Prions have been called the smallest,
most lethal biological entities in the world. The infectious
prions that cause the disease are found in the brain and
nervous tissue of cows and can contaminate beef stock, beef
extract, and beef flavoring. When infected, a human may
remain free of symptoms for many years before the deadly
brain destroying symptoms from the human form of Mad Cow
Disease, called Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, or CJD, appear.
Mad Cow
Disease is just one more reason to avoid eating animal
products.

Fasting |
|
|
|
Fasting has been used since the
beginning of recorded history. Moses, David, Elijah and
Jesus were said to have fasted for as long as 40 days.
Today, fasting can be used to
help compensate for the consequences of dietary excess and
the resulting “diseases of Kings”.

ancient practice,
