Appendix A-1: The Aboriginal Diet of Humans (Homo Sapiens)
ABSTRACT
A synthesis of multidisciplinary analyses documents listed in the Bibliography B. on the identity of the aboriginal
human diet clearly indicates that the aboriginal human diet was and by definition still is the Herbivore/Vegan Diet.
Thus it is no coincidence that the Herbivore/Vegan Diet is identified in the Bible Genesis 1: 29 as the “directive for
human nutrition” __ “food from the soil” __ and is part of the “Great Law” of General Human Systems Theory.
I. Ancient African, Eastern and Middle Eastern Cultures and Civilizations: “Golden Age”
Recent paleontology and archeological circumstantial evidence supports the premise that the Herbivore/Vegan Diet is
aboriginal is based on the new technique of hair analysis. SA Macko, et al in the article “The Ice Man’s diet as
reflected by the stable nitrogen and carbon isotopic composition of his hair” in FASEB Journal, V 13 (3), pp 559-
62, 1999 states that:
“We have also recognized a primary vegetarian component in the diet of the Neolithic Ice Man
of the Oetztaler Alps (5200 BP).“
Please note that in 5,000 BC. the “primary vegetarian component” was the herbivore/vegan diet.
The Herbivore/Vegan Diet of eating “foods from the soil” was aboriginally established by the African Culture in the
Nile River Valley theocracy of Ancient Egypt/Kemit lead by the priests of the esoteric “School of On (Annu or God)”
circa 100,000 BC. This dating is based on the genetic dating of the human genus homo sapiens female mitochondria
genome originating in Africa at circa 350,000 BC. The human mitochondria of hepatic (liver), vascular (blood vessel)
and kidney endothelial cells have the enzyme 27 Sterol Hydroxylase to detox Dietary Cholesterol metaphysically
designed from within a Vegan Diet genotype environment.
The Vegan Diet was and is characteristically founded upon the sustainable economic development technology of
Horticulture implemented by the esoteric “School of On (Annu or God)” based on integrated deep bed gardens and
forests using earthworm production and conservation of humus top soil without using animal husbandry to produce
its tree and plant sourced food stuffs.
The Vegan Diet was in ancient times and still is used by the Eastern Culture of the Ganges and Indus River Valley
Jain and Hindu civilizations of the Asian Sub-Continent of India and the Buddhist civilizations of China and South East
Asia which were in communication with the African Culture of the Nile River Valley theocracy of Ancient Egypt/Kemit
lead by the priests of the esoteric “School of On (Annu or God).”
The Vegan Diet was adopted by the ancient Ionian Greek Philosopher Pythagoras who was trained at the “School
of On (Annu or God)” of Ancient Egypt/Kemit. Pythagoras’ subsequent teachings influenced upper classes of the
ancient Greek and later Roman societies’ of the Mediterranean Sea.
“For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other. Indeed, he who sows
the seed of murder and pain cannot reap joy and love.”
Pythagoras (6th century BC)
The aboriginal Hippocratic Oath of ancient physicians is traceable to Pythagoras and the esoteric “School of On
(Annu or God).” It is notable the various modern Hippocratic Oaths taken by allopathic MD. physicians today are
significantly modified versions of the original oath.
The Vegan Diet was adopted by the ancient Hebrews, as their Patriarchs Joseph and Moses (alias esoterically
Pharaoh Akhenaton) were also trained at the “School of On (Annu or God)” of Ancient Egypt/Kemit. The Vegan Diet
was practiced by the Essene Hebrews who wrote the Dead Sea Scrolls. As proto-Christians the Essenes raised the
Nazarene Prophet John the Baptist who initiated the Christian Master Jesus Christ.
A. Quoting from the Encyclopedia Britannica on the Essene(s) {Hebrews/Jews}:
“According to Clement of Alexandria (200 A.D.) the Essenes were strict abstainers from flesh foods.”
“As a result of the ascetic training of the Essenes, and their temperate diet, it is said that they lived to a great
age, and were superior to pain and fear.”
“… they had in many respects reached the highest moral elevation attained by the ancient world, they were
just, humane, benevolent and spiritually-minded; the sick and the aged were the objects of a special
affectionate regard; they condemned slavery . . . as an impious violation of natural brotherhood of man.”
“Josephus says that the Essenes lived the same kind of life as did the Pythagoreans….. they entirely addict
themselves to husbandry... they are long lived also in so much that many of them live above a hundred years!”
Appendix A-1: The Aboriginal Diet of Humans (Homo Sapiens) _ page 2
B. “Dean Stanley points out certain evidence that St. John was an adherent of the Essenian philosophy....
Thus from the above St. John by inference was a vegetarian too.”
“The Homilies of Clement, according to Howard Williams”... assure us ‘that St. Matthew‘ lived upon seeds
and hard shell fruits and other vegetables, without touching flesh.”
“The Homilies of Clement, according to Howard Williams, represent St. Peter as a strict flesh-abstainer,
living upon bread and olives only, with the addition rarely of kitchen herbs. This information it is claimed was
given by St. Peter himself to Clement of Rome.”
“Eusebius states that St. James never ate any animal food.”
NOTE: St. James is St. James the Just, Jesus Christ’s brother and known Essene Nazarite.
“According to St. Augustine, he lived upon seeds and vegetables, never tasting flesh or wine.”
(from John Harvey Kellogg’s The Natural Diet of Man, 1923, pg. 77)
The Vegan Diet was adopted by the ancient Sebean civilization of Sheba in Asia Minor who also studied at the
“School of On (Annu or God)” of Ancient Egypt/Kemit. Their successors were the proto-Muslim Sufi Mystics who
initiated the founding Muslim Prophet Muhammad in the cave of Hira. Thus the Vegan Diet was introduced to the initial
Muslim societies of the Middle East.
Consequently, the Vegan Diet can be seen today reflected in the modern Mediterranean Diets of southern European
Mediterranean societies of southern France, Spain and Italy albeit using fish and wine instead of nuts, seeds and
unfermented grape and other fruit juices; and can also be seen today reflected in the modern Mediterranean Diets of
Muslim North African and Middle Eastern societies using for example Garbanzo bean based hummus, cous cous,
tabouli and goat dairy.
II. Ancient European and North Asian Culture and Civilizations : “Mammal Cannibalism”
The Western Culture of Europe and North Asia which invented Agriculture based upon domesticated grain and
legume “field plants” and based upon the animal husbandry of domesticated mostly mammalian animals was founded
by people who used the novel and experimental Omnivores Diet. This diet’s novel and experimental aspects stem from
the adaptation to the inclement weather of 90 to 120 day growing seasons in post Ice Age Europe and Northern Asia
spread around the world from the metaphysically militaristic cultures which used this aggressive behavior generating
Omnivores Diet.
In these temperate areas of Europe and Asia the mythical King Osiris and Queen Isis invented the new applied
science of agricultural around 10,000 BC. as opposed to the aboriginal applied science of horticulture. It was
needed to replace the heinous ritual and practice of cannibalism which was obviously socially despised and
ostracized and the often ineffective hunting of wild animals which was sporadic and caused their rapid
disappearance in Europe and Asia. This new applied science of agricultural had as its components
a.) domesticated animals mostly mammals; b.) animal husbandry; c.) animal manure based fertilizing; d.)
domesticated grains and legumes; e.) animal powered field plows; f.) farming of plots with ploughed parallel
fields and g.) Omnivorous diet which negated the perennial food shortage from the winter shortened growing seasons
in the temperate areas of Europe and Asia.
Note that the Omnivores Diet of these humans being mammals feeding from their own mammalian family group via
domesticated mammal animals initially constituted and still constitutes a form of “mammal cannibalism.” Sickness
treatment epistemologically this “pseudo” food generates in the human body autoimmune responses including
white blood cell’s production of antibodies and amyloid protein excretion and the liver’s detox conjugation with
glucose, the amino acid glycine and sulfonic acid taurine.
Unfortunately, this characteristically pastoral lifestyle using domesticated mostly mammalian animals sets into motion
the environmentally destructive interconnected vectors of pastoral overgrazing, the loss of humus top soil, the change
of local rain patterns from the progressive loss of shrub and trees breaking their provided ground water to atmospheric
water cycle and eventually the regional systemic death of trees resulting in large scale desertification and deforestation
wherever it is used.
The appearance of chronic diseases and syndromes herein called the Dietary Cholesterol and Related Diseases
and Syndromes (DCRDS) naturally manifests within any culture’s people soon after they adopt the novel and
experimental Omnivores Diet. This is because the human body can not properly utilize Dietary Cholesterol from
another mammal or human of which consumption results in immune system rejection as seen in Diabetes Mellitus,
fermentation and putrefaction microbial intestinal insanitation problems and/or initiation of serious prion infections.
The Great Britain Empire was based on the novel Omnivores Diet but its Royal Navy soon learned the bitter lessons
of the need for “foods from the soil” with scurvy, beriberi and pellagra caused vitamin deficiencies. During the Victorian
Age the tradition of fruit as the days first meal was replaced with “breakfast” or “break the fast of dinner” was instituted
avoiding fruits and vegetables and substituting with a heavy meat and carbohydrate morning meal.
Historically, the novel Omnivores Diet is still characteristically associated with 1.) environmental pollution with its over
grazing animal husbandry agriculture producing soil erosion and animal feces and urine runoff into surface water and
ground water tables; 2.) environmental destruction of desertification and deforestation ; 3.) unsustainable economics with
the ineffective use of grains and seeds to feed domesticated animals for food instead of feeding people; 4.) the chronic
diseases and syndromes better termed the Dietary Cholesterol and Related Diseases and Syndromes (DCRDS)
caused by the inevitable immune system rejection of its “pseudo food” elements and intestinal microbial toxemia; and 5.)
the continued militaristic endeavors and unhumanitarian “mean” culture this diet spawns/generates. Medieval Europe’s
constant wars, killing plagues originating from the chronic enteric anaerobic bacterial toxemic infections of all those
who eat animal meat and colonialization of militarily weaker people in the name of Jesus Christ were predictable
outgrowths of the experimental, novel and environmentally destructive and internally unsanitary Omnivores Diet.
Today the Omnivores Diet is still novel and experimental because the human genome will not accept it without exception.
This is seen in “industrialized countries” and in urbanized areas of “developing countries” where it is imported for example
by America’s MacDonald Restaurants; results in millions of people being malnourished, going hungry and being sickness
ridden from the chronic disease and syndromes based iatrogenic poverty and economic poverty generated by the
Omnivores Diet.
III. Origin of the Vegetarian Diets of Africa and Asia: “Accommodation”

The Vegetarian Diet is related to the Vegan Diet but was developed later as a modification and socio-political
economic cultural accommodation of the invading peoples from Europe and North Asia who brought the Omnivores
Diet into Africa and Southern Asia who aboriginally used the Vegan Diet. By using the less cholesterol dense dairy
products of domesticated mammalian animals and eating little or no animal flesh “foods”, they attempted to ameliorate
Omnivores Diet’s deforestation and desertification vectors needing fewer Agricultural animal husbandry raised
domesticated mostly mammalian animals feeding themselves and their animals domesticated grains, legume and seed
producing plants.
Proof of this is that the domesticated mammalian animals the cow, goat, sheep and horse are not native to
Africa and were imported in by invader and migrant peoples.
This accommodation occurred in Ancient Egypt/Kemit with the defeat of the Pre-Dynastic invasion of the Dynastic
Race starting the 1 st Dynasty of the Dynastic Race esoterically mixed Caucasian and Asian Dravidian peoples. By
the 3 rd Dynasty diabetes mellitus was being described medically and being treated by the physicians of Ancient
Egypt/Kemit. The Omnivores Diet was later reintroduced during the Hyksos invasion and occupation from the
13 th to the 17 th Dynasties. This accommodation ended with the environmental and socio-political economic
destruction of this multi-millennium surviving civilization by successive invasions and occupations by the Omnivores
Diet based Persian, Greek and Roman civilizations.
The Greek City states were based mostly on the Omnivores Diet. However, take note that the vegan/vegetarian
teachings of Pythagoras had caused the upper classes in Athens to adopt the Vegetarian Diet as seen in the
personal dietary choice of the Philosopher Socrates.
The Roman Republic and later the Roman Empire was based on the Omnivores Diet. Yet take note that then
General Julius Caesar in his Memoirs relates that he had to change the diet of his army fighting against the
Vegetarian Diet using Gallic Tribes in his Gallic Wars as the Gallic women were killing his troops in hand to hand
combat.
This accommodation occurred in Ancient India with the invasion of the Europeans lead by Rama and subsequent
invasions of the Omnivores Diet Scythians. The later invasion attempt by the Omnivores Diet using Macedonian
Greek lead by Alexander the Great ended in his mortal wounding. Likewise the later attempt by the Omnivores
Diet using Roman Empire invasion of India was repulsed with the Roman Emperor himself killed in battle largely
from the hand to hand combat superiority of the Vegetarian Diet using Indian army.
The later successful invasion and occupation by the Omnivores Diet based Great Britain Empire of India ended with
the environmental and the socio-political economic destruction of mega-India now split into the nations of Pakistan,
Bangladesh and India. All these nations are struggling with various forms of socio-political economic problems
stemming from the Vegetarian Diet and requisite Agricultural technology base.
The ultimate defeat of the Nazi Germany World War II military was due to the comparative inferiority of its food stuffs
forced by the British and American Naval blockade from getting the importation of phosphate, phosphorus, animal
manure and other natural organic fertilizers. The Nazi’s turned to the novel and experimental “organic chemistry” to
use for the first time on a large scale N-P-K chemical fertilizers derived oil petroleum to produce its domesticated
animals and vegetable, grain and food products.
The differences of animal husbandry practices of the western civilization and the eastern civilization in the raising of
cattle and the production of dairy products is reflected in the former’s use of these animals as animal meat sources and
the latter’s forbidding such use as violating a sacred animal. Thus the western civilization animal husbandry practice
has dairy products with high levels of cholesterol derived from using the cows milk sac lining or rennet in dairy products
and the eastern civilization animal husbandry practices having dairy products practically devoid of cholesterol.
T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D., of Cornell University, director of a study of 6,500 Chinese found a close correlation
between meat consumption and the incidence of heart disease and cancer.
"Usually, the first thing a country does in the course of economic development is to introduce a lot of livestock.
Our data are showing that this is not a very smart move and the Chinese are listening. They are realizing that
animal-based agriculture is not the way to go.... We are basically a vegetarian species and should be eating a
wide variety of plant food and minimizing our intake of animal foods.... Once people start introducing animal
products into their diet, that's when the mischief starts."
IV. The Omnivore Diet’s Deleterious Effects Compounded by Allopathic Medicines: Metabolic Syndrome
As recently reported by free lance journalist Andrea Stone 11/03/2009 on www.sphere.com America’s military recruiters
have declared that 75% of the American youth are unfit for military service because of overweight and obesity, mental
neurosis including drug and alcohol abuse and prison records. It is clear that the Omnivore Diet generating the chronic
diseases and syndromes including latest manifestation of Metabolic Syndrome is the cause of this Health National
Security crisis.

“The Great Pathophysiological Ramifications of Dietary Cholesterol & Bile Acid Metabolism”
Appendix A-2: Aboriginal Christians Were Vegans
This document is based on one originally entitled “Are Christians Vegetarians?” by Keith Akers of the
Denver, Colorado, Vegetarian Society and a former North American Regional Secretary for IVU.
He wrote it in association with Richard Shorter of London, England. It has been modified herein by
George W. Singleton, 2007 and 2009 European Union Humanitarian Grantee in support of the
Green Paper:: Appendix A-1: The Aboriginal Diet of Humans. Most Christians today probably eat
animal meat without giving it a second thought. But many early Christians were vegan not even dairy
product partaking vegetarians including Clement of Alexandria, Origen, John Chrysostom, and Basil
the Great.
I. Writings on the Jesus Christ Disciples as Vegans
According to some early church writings the Apostles Matthew, Peter and James (the brother of
Jesus and first leader of the Jerusalem church) were vegans.
a.) “It is far better to be happy than to have your bodies act as graveyards for animals. The
Apostle Matthew partook of seeds and nuts and vegetables without flesh.”
Clement of Alexandria, The Instructor, book 2, chapter 1
Note: Clement of Alexander was the second leader of the Catechetical School of Alexander, Egypt [later
named in the Roman Catholic Church the Bishop of the aboriginal Christian Gnostic Church]
created by the Disciples of Jesus Christ’s fully 200 years before it was co-opted by the omnivore
Emperor Constantine of omnivore Roman Empire. Quite naturally for “empire security” and animal meat
industry reasons the vegan and gardening lifestyle of Jesus Christ a Hebrew Essene was changed
to meat eating fisherman.
b.) “Apostle Peter said, "I live on olives and bread to which I rarely only add vegetables."
Pseudo-Clementine Homolies 12, 6; also Recognitions 7,6.
c.) “Apostle James (the Just), the brother of the Lord ... was holy from his mothers womb;
and he drank no wine nor strong drink, nor did he eat flesh.”
Hegesippus, quoted in The Church History of Eusebius, book 2, chapter 23.
II. Early Christian Clergy and Saints Testimony
a.) “Sacrifices were invented by men to be a pretext for eating flesh.”
Clement of Alexandria (150 – 215 AD)
Note: Please note that it is not a coincidence that:
1.) Clement of Alexander the Bishop of the aboriginal Christian (Gnostic) Church
was a vegan and his student Origen (c. 185-254 AD) who became the next Bishop
of Alexandria and First Theologian of the Christian Church too was vegan;
2.) Clement of Alexander was the last to have seen and given a detailed description
of the now missing 42 Books of Thoth;
3.) these text books of the Ancient Egypt/Kemit “School of On (God or Annu) were
based on the Great Law of humans as herbivores and the vegan diet;
4.) the “School of On” trained Hebrew Patriarchs Joseph and Moses (esoterically
Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaton), and Moses writing about the creation of
earth dictates clearly the Bible Genesis 1: 29 vegan human diet directive; and
5.) the “School of On” trained Greek Philosopher Pythagoras (c 570- 495 BC) who
introduced the vegan lifestyle to the Greek civilizations surviving as the
Mediterranean Diet.

b.) “The eating of meat was unknown up to the big flood, but since the flood they
have the strings and stinking juices of animal meat into our mouths, just as
they threw in front of the grumbling sensual people in the desert.”
“Jesus Christ, who appeared when the time had been fulfilled, has again joined
the end with the beginning, so that it is no longer allowed for us to eat animal meat.”
St Jerome (347- 420 AD)
c.) “The steam of meat meals darkens the spirit. One can hardly have virtue if one
enjoys meat meals and feasts. In the earthly paradise there was no wine, no one
sacrificed animals, and no one ate meat.”
St Basil (330 – 379 AD)
d.) “Not to hurt our humble brethren is our first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough.
All things of creation are children of the Father and thus brothers of man ...”
“God wants us to help animals, if they need help. Every creature in distress has the
same right to be protected.”
“If you have men who will exclude any of god's creatures from the shelter of compassion
and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.”
St Francis of Assisi (1181- 1226 AD)
e.) “If man wants freedom why keep birds and animals in cages? Truly man is the king of beasts,
for his brutality exceeds them. We live by the death of others. We are burial places! I have
from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I look
upon the murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men.”
Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519 AD)
Note: This would explain his monumental masterpiece the Last Supper with Jesus Christ,
his Disciples including Mary Magdalene painted seated at a table set as a vegan
dinner with no animal meat in sight.
III. Bible References: Vegananism: Original Ideal and Ultimate Hope
a.) And God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face
of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food. And to
every beast of the earth, and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has
the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food."
Bible Genesis 1:29-30
b.) The wolf shall dwell with the lamb,

and the leopard shall lie down with the kid,
and the calf and the lion and the fatling together,
and a little child shall lead them.
The cow and the bear shall feed;
their young shall lie down together;
and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
The suckling child shall play over the hole of the asp,
and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adders den.
They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain;
for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord
as the waters cover the sea.
Bible Isaiah 11:6-9

3.
c.) Then I will make a covenant on behalf of Israel with the wild beasts, the birds of the air,
and the things that creep on the earth, and I will break bow and sword and weapon of
war and sweep them off the earth so that all living creatures may lie down without fear.
Bible Hosea 2:18
d.) He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall
there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away.
Bible Revelations 21:4
e.) I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them,
and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. For that which befalleth the sons of
men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea
they have one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast for all is vanity. Yea.
Bible Ecclesiastes
f.) Children in whom was no blemish, but well-favored, and skillful in all wisdom, and cunning in
knowledge, and understanding science...and the King appointed them a daily provision of the
King’s meat, and of the wine which he drank... But Daniel proposed in his heart that he would
not defile himself with the portion of the King’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank…
Therefore he requested that he might not defile himself. Prove thy servants, I beseech thee,
ten days; and let them give us pulse (vegetable legumes) to eat, and water to drink. Then let
our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the Countenance of the children that eat
of the portion of the King’s meat: And as thou seest, deal with thy servants. And at the end of
ten days their countenance appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the children which did
eat the portion of the King’s meat. Thus Meizar took away the portion of their meat, and the wine
that they should drink; and give them pulse. As for these Children, God gave them knowledge
and skill in all learning and wisdom: and had understanding in all visions and dreams.
Bible Daniel 1:4-17 (excerpts thereof)
IV. Bible References: God Cares About Animals and Wants Us To Care About Animals
a.) The Lord is good to all men, and his tender care rests upon all his creatures.
Bible Psalms 145:9
b.) Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow and reap and store in barns,
yet your heavenly Father feeds them.
Bible Matthew 6:26
c.) A righteous man cares for his beast.
Bible Proverbs 12:10
d.) When you see the ass of someone who hates you lying helpless under its load,
however unwilling you may be to help it, you must give him a hand with it.
Bible Exodus 23:5
e.) When you see your fellow countryman’s ass or ox lying on the road, do not ignore it;
you must help him to lift it to its feet again.
Bible Deuteronomy 22:4

4.
f.) He who slaughters an ox is like him who kills a man.
Bible Isaiah 66:3
V. Bible References: Animal Sacrifices Are Rejected by God
a.) Your countless sacrifices, what are they to me? says the Lord. I am sated with
whole-offerings of rams and the fat of buffaloes; I have no desire for the blood of
bulls, of sheep and of he-goats. Whenever you come into my presence - who asked
you for this? No more shall you trample my courts. The offer of your gifts is useless,
the reek of sacrifice is abhorrent to me.
Bible Isaiah 1:11-12
b.) There is blood on your hands; wash yourselves and be clean.
Bible Isaiah 1:16
c.) For a desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God, rather than
burnt offerings.
Bible Hosea 6:6
d.) Because Ephraim has made many alters for sin, they have become for him alters for sinning.
I have written for him the great things of my law (Genesis 1:29) but they were considered a
strange thing for the sacrifices of my offerings. They sacrifice flesh and eat it. But the lord
does not accept them. Now He will remember their iniquity and punish their sins.
Bible Hosea 8:11-13
e.) If you had known what that text means, "I require mercy, not sacrifice", you would not have
condemned the innocent.
Bible Matthew 12:7
VII. Past and Present Notable Philosophers, Scientists and Authors Testimony
a.) “But for the sake of some little mouthful of flesh we deprive a soul of the sun and light, and of
that proportion of life and time it had been born into the world to enjoy.”
Plutarch (c. 46- c.120 AD)
b.) "The animals you eat are not those who devour others; you do not eat the carnivorous beasts
you, take them as your pattern. You only hunger after sweet and gentle creatures who harm
no one, which follow you, serve you, and are devoured by you as the reward of their service."
John-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778 AD)
c.) “Flesh eating is unprovoked murder.”
Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790 AD)
d.) “I have no doubt that it is part of the destiny of the human race in its gradual improvement
to leave off eating animals.”
Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862 AD)

5.
e.) “Nothing more strongly arouses our disgust than cannibalism, yet we make the same
impression on Buddhists and vegetarians, for we feed on babies, though not our own.”
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894 AD)
f.) “Let no one regard as light the burden of his responsibility. While so much ill-treatment
of animals goes on, while the moans of thirsty animals in railway trucks sound unheard,
while so much brutality prevails in our slaughterhouses ... we all bear guilt. Everything
that lives has value as a living thing, as one of the manifestations of the mystery that is life.”
“Until he extends the circle of compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace.”
Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965 AD)
g.) “A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he
participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite. And to act so is immoral.”
“Flesh eating is simply immoral, as it involves the performance of an act, which is contrary
to moral feeling: killing. By killing, man suppresses in himself, unnecessarily, the highest
spiritual capacity, that of sympathy and pity towards living creatures like himself and by
violating his own feelings becomes cruel.”
Leo Tolstoy (1828- 1910 AD)
f.) “My situation is a solemn one. Life is offered to me on condition of eating beefsteaks.
But death is better than cannibalism. My will contains directions for my funeral, which
will be followed not by mourning coaches, but by oxen, sheep, flocks of poultry, and a
small traveling aquarium of live fish, all wearing white scarfs in honor of the man who
perished rather than eat his fellow creatures.”
George Bernard Shaw (1850 -1956 AD)
g.) ”Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on earth as
much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.”
Albert Einstein (1879-1955 AD)
h.) “In every respect, vegans appear to enjoy equal or better health in comparison to both
vegetarians and non-vegetarians.”
T. Colin Campbell, PhD Professor of Nutrition, Cornell University (letter dated 3/29/98)
i.) "There will come a time...when civilized people will look back in horror on our generation and the
ones that preceded it: the idea that we should eat other living things running around on four legs,
that we should raise them just for the purpose of killing them! The people of the future will say
‘meat-eaters!’ in disgust and regard us in the same way we regard cannibals and cannibalism."
Dennis Weaver
j.) “Your choice of diet can influence your long term health prospects more than any other action you
might take.
Former Surgeon General C. Everett Koop
k.) "The beef industry has contributed to more American deaths than all the wars of this century, all
natural disasters, and all automobile accidents combined. If beef is your idea of `real food for real
people,' you'd better live real close to a real good hospital."
Neal D. Barnard, M.D.,

President, Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, Washington, D.C.
6.
l.) "All red meat contains saturated fat. There is no such thing as truly lean meat. Trimming away the
edge ring of fat around a steak really does not lower the fat content significantly. People who have
red meat (trimmed or untrimmed) as a regular feature of their diets suffer in far greater numbers
from heart attacks and strokes."
Michael Klaper, M.D.,

Medical Director, Earth Save Foundation, Santa Cruz, California
m.) "If you step back and look at the data, the optimum amount of red meat you eat should be zero."
Walter Willett, M.D., Professor at Harvard School of Public Health (Departments of

Epidemiology and Nutrition), wrote editorial “Diet and Cancer” in the January 12, 2005,
Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA), V. 293, pp 234-4 in support of the
American Cancer Society study [Chao, Ann, et al, “Meat Consumption and Risk of
Colorectal Cancer,” JAMA, V. 293, pp 172-182] that found a close correlation between
red meat consumption and colon cancer.
n.) "Usually, the first thing a country does in the course of economic development is to introduce a lot
of livestock. Our data are showing that this is not a very smart move and the Chinese are
listening. They are realizing that animal-based agriculture is not the way to go.... We are basically

Poverty and illness are intertwined. It is a well-documented worries (Milimo et al. 2002). Economists and experts in
fact that poverty leads to ill-health. In every society, poverty analysis have raised the issue. The WHO, the
morbidity and mortality are higher among the poor World Bank and the ILO are trying to put it higher on the

RESEARCHERS UNCOVER BIOCHEMICAL CONNECTION BETWEEN HIGH-FAT
DIETS AND INCREASED COLON-CANCER RISK
DALLAS – May 17, 2002 – Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas have
uncovered what could be a key clue in tracing the connection between high-fat diets and
increased colon-cancer risk.
Their findings, published in today’s edition of Science, reveal that the body’s natural mechanisms
aren’t built to handle lithocholic acid, a toxic byproduct of dietary fat, in the volume generated
by high-fat diets.
Dr. David Mangelsdorf, professor of pharmacology and investigator in the Howard Hughes
Medical Institute (HHMI) at UT Southwestern, said observational evidence established a
strong association between high-fat diets and colorectal cancer, but scientists could not
explain the biological and biochemical mechanisms that formed the link.
“The rate of colorectal cancer is much higher in the United States - where a high-fat diet is
common - than in Japan, where people don’t eat a lot of fat and colorectal cancer is almost
nonexistent. But no one has understood why that is,” he said.
The new findings show that at least part of the answer lies in the body’s inability to cope with
large amounts of lithocholic acid, produced when the body processes cholesterol. The body
produces bile acids when it breaks down cholesterol, part and parcel of dietary fat. Those
bile acids go to the small intestine and are broken down into secondary bile acids, one of
which is lithocholic acid.
Most secondary bile acids circulate to the liver, but only a little bit of lithocholic acid does
so. Much of it remains in the small intestine, then moves into the colon, or large intestine.
“Lithocholic acid is highly toxic, and it builds up in a high-fat diet,” Mangelsdorf said. “We
don’t know how it causes cancer; but it is known to cause cancer in mice, and people with
colon cancer have high concentrations of it.”
Scientists knew that a certain receptor controlled the small amount of lithocholic acid
in the liver. Receptors are proteins that bind to certain substances to help the body
absorb or get rid of them. The lithocholic acid-controlling receptor also is present in
the colon. But there isn’t enough of it to cope with large volumes of lithocholic acid.
However, the lithocholic acid-controlling receptor is similar in structure to another receptor,

which binds to vitamin D to help the body absorb calcium. Mangelsdorf’s team wondered if the
vitamin D receptor might also help eliminate lithocholic acid.
The researchers discovered that the vitamin D receptor actually plays a major role in eliminating
lithocholic acid. Like the receptor that works in the liver, the vitamin D receptor binds to
lithocholic acid, then binds to a specific gene, called CYP3A that triggers production of an
enzyme that breaks down the toxic acid. Those findings were made using assays, which are
small, flat panels used to study genetic activity outside living organisms.
Next, the researchers used tissue cultures to show that the process is replicated in living cells.
Then, the team fed vitamin D and lithocholic acid to mouse models. The lithocholic acid
activated the animals’ CYP3A genes, as well as other genes that the vitamin D receptor is
known to bind to after binding with vitamin D.
“It turned out that in vivo, the vitamin D receptor appeared to play a large role in breaking down
lithocholic acid,” Mangelsdorf said.
While the research identifies a possible target for helping the body eliminate excess lithocholic
acid, exploiting the research might not be so simple. Taking extra vitamin D would stimulate
more activity in the vitamin D receptors, but that also would cause the body to absorb more
calcium. Ingesting too much vitamin D can lead to hypercalcemia, a toxic condition that
occurs with excessive calcium buildup.
Mangelsdorf said the body’s natural lithocholic acid-response mechanism simply wasn’t built
to handle the amount of fat in the modern American diet.
“Our bodies can handle slight changes in lithocholic acid that come from a normal diet, but
not a high-fat diet,” he said. “The current American diet can provide more fat on a daily
basis than a human being was ever meant to handle.”
Dr. Makoto Makishima, a former research associate in the HHMI at UT Southwestern, was lead
author of the study. Other UT Southwestern researchers who contributed were Timothy T. Lu,
an M.D./Ph.D. student in pharmacology, and Dr. Hideharu Domoto, a postdoctoral fellow in
pharmacology.
Other institutions contributing to the study were the Salk Institute for Biological Studies and
the University of Arizona College of Medicine. The study was supported by the Howard
Hughes Medical Institute, the National Institutes of Health, the Robert A. Welch
Foundation and the Human Frontier Science Program.

GREEN PAPER:: US White House and US Congress Submission
American Health National Security Issue Omission Resolution::
“The Great Pathophysiological Ramifications of Dietary Cholesterol and Bile Acid Metabolism”
Appendix E
The Reversal of Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Parkington's Disease (PD) and Other Dementia
I. The Cause
One could wait a few more years until the allopathic and osteopathic medical communities admit they now know the
cause of the various manifestations of Dementia, or one could gain from the observational evidence that clearly points to
the ingestion of mammalian animal "pseudo-foods" (red meat) or "Mammal Cannibalism" as the culprit.
The aboriginal diet of humans beings (homo sapiens) is part of the Great Law called "General Human Systems
Theory (GHST)" which was written by Moses [alias Egyptian “School of On (Annu or God)” 18 th Dynasty
Egyptian/Kemitian Pharaoh Akhenaten] in the Book of Genesis 1:29 of the Hebrew Old Testament and Christian
Bible. Hereditary forms of Dementia simply means those with familial genomes that are more sensitive to red meat
"pseudo-food" ingestion and its “slow poisoning” effects than the rest of earth's human population.
II. The Proof
One has only to do comparative study of the Prion Protein Infectious Diseases to see the extreme results of "Mammal
Cannibalism;" i.e. as humans are mammals the possible consequences from eating from ones own family group the
domesticated or wild mammals. The Prion Protein Infectious Diseases include the following spongiform
encephalopathys (SE) amongst humans:
1.) Kuru __ from cannibalizing human flesh

2.) CJD (Creutzfeldt-Jacob Disease)
3.) GSS (Gerstmann-Strausler-Schewke Syndrome)
4.) fatal familial insomnia
5.) Iatrogenic CJD from failed surgeries of brain tissue, cornea grafts, administration of human growth hormone
6.) variant CJD from ingesting Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) contaminated cow meat
The Prion Protein Infectious Diseases include the following SE’s amongst the mammalian animals other than humans:
1.) BSE __ affecting cows (Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy, "mad cow disease")
2.) Scrapie __ affecting sheep
3.) spongiform encephalopathys __ affecting wild moose and wild sheep
The SE’s are all “slow infectious diseases” taking a long time period to manifest into the symptoms of a.) dementia
and/or b.) "spongiform" holes in the brain tissue and/or c.) serious brain placque formations. They are all fatal
with no reversal possible using the conventional allopathic or osteopathic medical paradigm.
One simply has to comparatively look at the etiology of Kuru amongst the Fore people of New Guinea who were
cannibals of other humans; and add that to the Great Britain meat industry's mistake of feeding vegan cattle the ground
up bodies of sheep and other dead cows which resulted in BSE to understand that the human brain can not be exposed
to any amount of brain tissue or Central Nervous System nerve tissue as Prion Protein Infection Disease is a risk.
There is no such thing as eating bacon, hamburger, baloney, ribs or steak and not ingesting minute amounts of
mammalian animal brain or nerve tissue!!!
The human brain dementia diseases of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) which includes placque development and
Parkington's Disease (PD) have proliferated from being almost unknown 30 years ago to being in the top 10 killers of
Americans and main sources of dementia which fill the nursing homes in America. Their proliferation is associated with
the increased animal mammalian meat per capita ingestion by Americans via the modern fast food high fat and protein
diet. AD and PD are simply lower level intensity Prion Protein Infectious Diseases. They too will lead to death of the
patient. However, they are stoppable and even reversible if the remedial regimen is begun and carried out properly.
III. The Reversible Dementia Diet and Cleansing Regimen
Immediately begin a TOTAL vegan diet ____ a vegetarian diet will not yield a reversal result __ any lapses
here will not bring fruitful results __ do you allow babies to eat poison?
1.) For breakfast 2 cups minimal of Mexican Papaya for breakfast fresh cut up or in smoothies with other fresh berries
especially blueberries using evaporated sugar if desired.
2.) For lunch 2 cups minimal unroasted sprouted sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds with pecans and/or walnuts in
"seed drinks" with evaporated sugar. "Seed drink" directions are in Original Prevention of Sickness Pamphlet
(Pamphlet) freely downloadable from http://www.theuniversityofgod.org/Page8.html.
3.) follow Dr. Dean Ornin, MD.'s Cardiovascular Disease Reversal Diet in his book The Spectrum.
4.) follow the Mediterranean Diet by a.) cutting out fish, sea animals and dairy substituting "mock meat", whole grains,
legumes, seeds and nuts and seed/nut milk and cheeses; and b.) cutting out wine and substituting plenty of freshly
squeezed vegetable juices especially “organic (Whole Food ‘365 Brand)” carrot, spinach, beet, celery and garlic
and fruit juices especially seeded grape and blueberry juice mixed with Mexican Papaya as a smoothie.
5.) use any other vegan diet menus or create entrees by substituting the "mock meats" for animal meat in menus.
6.) each month __ preferably in the beginning of the month __ do a 9 day fast on Mexican Papaya __ you do it along
with dementia patient ___ each day doing a “seed drink” just before bed and a high enema the instructions in Pamphlet.
7.) Prepare daily 12 ounce drink of Southern Mexico Yam Tea made by the Infusion method instructions in Pamphlet.
7.) optionally monthly series of colonics administered by a certified Physical Therapist or Colonic Specialist.
It takes years for AD and PD and the more severe Prion Protein Infection Diseases to manifest symptoms so give
this regimen at least 9 months to show reversal signs.

THE ORIGINAL PREVENTION OF SICKNESS: GENERAL NUTRITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS
I. AVOID THE 5 “WHITE FOODS”
a. White Flour/Bread
- substitute 100% whole wheat and other whole grain flours and bread
- without preservatives and without enriched white flour
- “flourless” (sprouting transforms starch to sugar) whole grain breads are best
b. White Rice
- substitute Brown Rice, Wild Rice or Basmati Rice, rinse and soak
overnight or at least 20 minutes
- baking is best
c. White Salt (VIP)

- substitute the “real” rock salt or sea salt and ideally use ground kelp
- “normal” table salt like “Morton’s” is really a by-product from the refining of
bauxite to aluminum which is sprayed on rock salt so it pours
- aluminized salt causes high blood pressure and suspiciously aluminum

shows up in Alzheimer Syndrome victims’ brains and should be avoided
d. White Sugar
- substitute dehydrated “organic” sugar, 100% “organic” maple syrup,
unsulphured black molasses, “organic” honey (moderately)
- avoid white sugar (sucrose), brown sugar, turbinado sugar, fructose produce
acid blood condition from 100% white sugar blood stream absorption
- imitation sugars are carcinogenic
e. White Milk and Dairy

- getting “rennetless” (without the inner cells of the cow’s milk sack)
milk and cheese thereof without hormones is nearly impossible the
vegetarians eating dairy are at risk of TB, polio & “mad cow” disease
- substitute the original dairy from plants ___ soy, rice, nut and inexpensive
seed milks and cheeses
See Section XII for instructions on making seed/nut milk in your blender
NOTE: With the exception of white milk which naturally comes from seeds and nuts, we are
the “victims” of eating unknowingly racist created refined “white colored” foods.”
instead of their natural unrefined ”brown colored” original food counterparts.
7.
XII. INSTRUCTIONS ON MAKING SPROUTED SEED/NUT MILKS AND DRINKS
This recipe will result in a seed/nut “milk” substitute for cow’s milk or a complete and
easily digested liquid meal seed/nut “drink” with all the nutrients needed for a complete
day’s activities ideal for a vegan or vegetarian on the go and concerned about getting
proper nutrition.
Ingredients: ½ cup raw hulled “organic” sunflower seeds
¼ cup raw hulled “organic” pumpkin seeds
¼ cup raw unhulled “organic” sesame seeds
¼ cup “organic” dehydrated sugar or 100% Grade A Maple syrup
4 cups of filtered, spring or distilled water (do not use tap

water as the chlorine gas used to decontaminate it is
carcinogenic)
Instructions: 1.) put seeds in Blender and cover with 1 cup of the water
and put lid on and let sit at least 12 hours as the seeds will
sprout turning their starch to digestible sugar;
2.) drain and then rinse with 1 cup of the water;
3.) drain and add the final 2 cups of water and the dehydrated
sugar or Maple syrup and blend until liquefied.
4.) Enjoy as a Seed/Nut Milk ___ strain solid material out and drink or use
in recipes as you would cow’s milk.
5.) Enjoy as a Seed/Nut Drink __ drink without starining for a complete

liquid meal.
NOTE: You can substitute other seeds and nuts in place of the
Pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds, but the sunflower
seeds are necessary for they are a complete and easily digestible
food that everyone should eat every day.

XIV. THE 12 CAUSES OF CANCER AND HOW TO PREVENT IT
This message is dedicated to my Mother and Step Father who have been staunch supporters of
my work over the years and both suffered from cancer. I am reminded I have been warning my
family and friends for 30 years now what I had learned in my medical pathology and "nutritional
herbology" studies starting with my pre-med undergraduate education at the University of
Chicago from 1966 to 1970 (BA in General Biology) and culminating in my Doctor of Herbology
(HD) Degree in 1986 ___ that 50% of the American people will contract preventable cancer. Of
course not having an MD degree and warning so early in the “cancer pandemic” very few have
listened to me seriously.
In addition to my Mother and Step Father contracting cancer, my mother's brother and sister
died of cancer within 6 months of diagnosis in 1998, my Step Father's sister died of cancer in
2002 and his brother died from cancer in 2003. A score of other people in my family and network
have it or have died of it. Several years ago I heard a frustrated and frightened Reverend Jessie
Jackson on his CNN cable show ask desperately what was the cause of the cancer epidemic in
America?
Here is a list of the 12 leading causes of the cancer epidemic known 30 years ago remembering
that cancer cells are one's own cells who mutate and decide to break the "body plan" and revolt
growing on their "own plan" and satisfying their own needs without regard to the body's needs,
overall safety and well being:
#1.) animal organ and flesh foods __ animal protein digestion unlike plant protein
digestion leads directly to the heavy production of the carcinogen uric acid, unnatural animal
manure containing bacteria and fungi which is allowed into the meat from the dead animal's
intestinal tract during the "curing process" of hanging butchered meat caucuses to tenderize the
meat, and these microbes excrete carcinogens (mycotoxins) into the ingester's body; and leads
to ingesting agri-chemicals from the grains these farm animals are fed ___ creates the cancer
cell producing environment of a thick acid pH blood condition with a low level of oxygen;
NOTE: a.) The human body in its normal cellular death maintenance metabolism produces uric
acid that is excreted by the kidneys, and is additionally overloaded from the unnatural addition of
animal organ and flesh foods adding additional uric acid for the body to eliminate.
b.) Dairy products that are rennetless are alright to eat and prevent cancer but are
extremely hard to get. Thus substituting and switching completely to dairyless cheeses (soy) and
soy; and other seed and nut milks is ideal. Refer to Section I above.
c.) Please study Appendix H for the shocking discovery announced in May 2002 on
in Science Magazine that the cause of Colon Cancer has been identified as Lithocholic Acid
which means it is a factor in all cancers being made by the Liver in fatty animal flesh digestion
and stored in the fat tissues by the Liver throughout the body.
12.
XIV. THE 12 CAUSES OF CANCER AND HOW TO PREVENT IT (continued)
#2.) improper internal hygiene __ people are taught to brush, and floss their teeth
and antiseptically wash their mouth; i.e. the beginning of the digestive/alimentary tract but have
not been told and in fact are encouraged not to conduct enemas thus washing the tail end
segment of their digestive/alimentary tract the colon; the colon being the part of the
intestinal tract that not only withdraws water from the feces but helps purify the blood
along with the kidneys by filtering sold wastes from the blood stream into the large
intestine for elimination in the stools ___ thus leading to a further compounding of the
Cancer Epidemic cause #1 problem above by causing a build up old undigested putrefactive
acid forming mucus waste material amounting to a dangerous anaerobic (oxygen deficient)
cesspool environment teaming with microbes and their carcinogenic toxic excretments;
NOTE: Colon and stomach cancers are the top 2 killing cancers and obviously
are connected to what we eat and drink and the relative internal hygiene of these two key food
digestive organs.
#3.) parasitic tape worms, flukes, protozoa, viruses, bacteria and fungi ___
usually animal manure, organs and flesh food originated but also in contaminated and spoiled
vegetable, fruit, nuts, legumes and grains as well as in the air from other infected people and
animals ___ tapeworms, flukes and protozoa getting the nutrients before the host, viruses
entering cells and mutating their genetic (DNA and or RNA) material carcinogenic, and bacteria
and fungi feeding on undigested food residues ___ with them all excreting carcinogenic wastes
into the core of the body carried every heart beat by the blood stream throughout the body;
#4.) conventionally grown vegetables, fruits and grains contaminated with agri-
chemicals from artificial fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, growth hormones and fungicides;
#5.) refined, adulterated and preserved foods ___ from farm and garden humus
topsoil erosion and failure to soil remineralize producing especially since World War II and the
onset of chemical agriculture empty caloried food products devoid of biogenic energy and
natural micro-nutrients needed to detoxify carcinogenic wastes and chemicals and fight cancer
cells abound ___ producing in the general population a "subclinical malnutrition" devoid of the
natural fresh fruit, vegetable, nut, seed and grain cancer fighting cytosomes, vitamins,
minerals and enzymes; with additionally chemical preservatives, artificial colors and additives
including propyl alcohol;
#6.) improper beverages and damaged disinfected drinking water ___ alcoholic
beverages including wines and beers overwork the cancer fighting organ the liver while
stimulating briefly increased blood flow by thinning the otherwise average meat eater's thick
acid pH blood condition with a low level of oxygen, as well as the use of the chemical poisons
chlorine gas, fluoride, calcium carbonate and aluminum to name a few to disinfect and treat
sewer utilized water to produce public drinking water which is high pressurized in municipal
water systems damaging its molecular structure and oxygenation ability;
13.
#7.) loss of 50% of the Oxygen in the Air since 1900 ___ by the continued
deforestation of the planet and environmental chemical pollution killing the oxygen producing
trees, water and soil algae and ocean plankton and seaweed__ which alone explains the Ozone
Holes since Ozone (O3) is produced naturally from Oxygen (O2) and if the former is reduced so
will the later be reduce ___ causing the increased need for nutritional anti-oxidant vitamins and
micronutrients;
#8.) ultraviolet light from the sun ___ can mutate cellular genetic material
carcinogenic is normally filtered out by the atmosphere but allowed through the atmospheric
Ozone Holes ultimately caused by the loss of trees and other oxygen producing plants and thus
loss of oxygen in the atmosphere produces skin cancers;
#9.) industrial chemicals in commercial products, manufacturing work sites and

as environmental pollutants in the air, water, earth, food plants and animals;
#10.) natural and man made radiation ___ from substances as natural radon, from
nuclear power plants, radioactive wastes used to produce "irradiated preserved" foods, nuclear
weapon testing and uses thereof ;
#11.) stress at home, work or extracurricular activities ___ usually from a dislike of
one's livelihood or one's interpersonal relationships blocks the bodies daily detoxing of free
radicals, cancer cells and other carcinogenic toxins; and
#12.) Over indulgence in sexual intercourse, prescription & illicit drugs and greed.
Obviously, it is a wiser lifestyle and economically expedient to prevent the onset of cancer in
one's life before it starts or to cure it in its early stages. You can afford to look like an "extremist
health nut" if you can avoid the cancer epidemic, since the majority of America's people are
content in allowing this cancer epidemic to consume them for the sake of progress, too confident
in their health insurance and hoping for a "magic" cure. Even the first stages of a particular
cancer can benefit from an avoidance of the 12 cancer causes no matter what treatment one
chooses to take ___ the conventional legal chemical, surgery and radiation treatments or an
alternative cure.
Finally, there are so-called "genetically associated cancers" but it is maintained here that
avoiding the 12 cancer causes outlined above will prevent even "so-called " hereditary cancers"
from manifesting which comprise only 5% of all cancer incidents.
14.
For those needing guidance as to how to deal with Cancer Causes #1, 2 and 3:
1.) the vegan/vegetarian diet is highly recommended for you immediately;
2.) with corresponding "high enemas" every 4 days for at least a year reduced to once a month
there after when all one's sickness symptoms have disappeared targeting the "unseen"
intestinal tract unsanitary mucus food wastes;
3.) please refer to this Original Prevention of Disease: General Nutritional Instructions
Pamphlet which we encourage you to copy and spread through your network for free for
diet, high enema and ridding oneself of tape worms and internal intestinal mucus filth.
For those needing guidance as to how to deal with Cancer Causes #4, 5, 6 and 7:
1.) invest in your health and start buying "organic" food produce and food products from your
local natural food store, market or farmers' market;
2.) invest and plant your own deep bed garden that will produce 4 times as much food with half
the water ___ for faxed deep bed installation instructions call 317-251-0414;
3.) invest and increase the number of oxygen producing landscape trees and ornamental
plants inside and outside your residence;
4.) invest in a Champion quality triturating juicer and prepare your own fresh vegetable and
fruit juices which are rich in oxygen;
5.) avoid drinking tap or well water directly and wasting money on bottled water not in
polycarbonate plastic as any other plastic bottle will leach plastic polymers into the water, and
invest in a mobile Nikken PiMag (Fliptop or Sport) Water Bottle on sale this month at half price
($29 or 4 pack for $88) and Magna Tote ($95) or stationary residential faucet installed Nikken
PiMag Water System ( $850) and purify and naturally energize your potable tap, well or camp
site water to oxygen rich, pH balanced PiMag.

In the United States, women are more likely to die in pregnancy or childbirth than in
40 other countries.
Prevent women from dying in childbirth.
Dear Basheer,
Today we're blowing the lid off the shameful way

that many pregnant women are treated in the United
States.
We've released an unflinching report that details the

disgraceful facts, tragic stories and poor policies
behind maternal death rates among American
women. The results show this country ranks 41st
in the world for risk of dying from pregnancy-
related complications.
It's not just the low ranking that concerns me; it's
that in a country that spends far more on health
care than any other country in the world - and
more on pregnancy and childbirth hospitalization
costs than any other area of medicine - at least half
of these deaths could have been prevented!
Ensure that pregnant women in the United

States get the care that they deserve.
It comes down to a few key areas where a woman's right to a safe childbirth is neglected:
• Women aren't receiving enough information about the signs of complications and the risks of
medical interventions, such as inducing labor or c-sections.
• Unlike in other countries, most women in the U.S. do not receive home visits following
childbirth, even though more than half of all maternal deaths occur within 42 days of giving birth.
• The cost for maternal care is just too high for many women to pay and many women find that
they cannot obtain insurance after becoming pregnant.
• Far too many barriers are preventing pregnant women from getting proper care before, during
and after their delivery.
• African American women are four times as likely to die in pregnancy and childbirth than
white women. Disparities have not improved in more than 20 years.
• Few systems are in place to analyze existing problems and propose possible solutions to
improve maternal health standards.
Here are 2 things we can do right now to combat preventable maternal deaths:
1. Urge the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to improve timely access to
quality maternal care. As the principal agency for protecting health in this country, this department
must be at the heart of efforts to change the system. We are asking Kathleen Sebelius, the
Secretary of this department, to work with President Obama in setting up an Office of Maternal
Health within HHS dedicated to providing the much-needed oversight for preventing, recognizing
and responding to the leading complications that cause pregnancy-related deaths.
2. Volunteer to meet with Senators and Representatives in your local district to inform them
about this tragedy. Amnesty supporters will be spreading the word to elected officials March 29 -
April 9th and engaging them to prevent maternal deaths. We will train you and give you the support
you need to educate and enlist your representatives in the effort to reduce maternal deaths.
The more I learn about the women and families whose lives have been affected by this devastating crisis,
the more convinced I am that we must do something about it.
Help us protect women's health. Help us deliver the message that maternal health is a human right.
In Solidarity,
Larry Cox
Executive Director

Washington, DC.
Your Honor US/HHS Secretary Katheleen Sebelius:
As the 2007 and 2009 European Union Humanitarian Grantee we are hopeful that the Amnesty International, Inc.
citing the disturbing situation uncovered in 2008 by the Center for Disease Control on the status of the high infant
mortality rates in America compared to international community especially in the inner cities at 14% which is clearly
genocidal will lead to definitive action to eradicate this problem.
Please find attached the Red Paper: Interrogatory of the American Health Care Issue Omission: The Great
Ramifications of Dietary Cholesterol and Bile Acid Metabolism: The Chronic Diseases and Syndromes
delivered already to the White House/Office of Health Care Reform, Office of the First Lady and the Vice President as
well as leaders in the US Congress which on page 4 states:
"2.) US Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) at 6.9% as reported in 2008 by the US Center for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) places America 29th in industrialized countries compared
with Japan's IMR of 3.1% and 3 rd amongst industrialized nations. The IMR amongst
African Americans at 16.7% is genocidal!
Note a: The CDC in its 2008 Annual Report on the nation's Infant Mortality Rates
pointed to the lack of progress in infant mortality prevention from 2000 to 2006
__ a lack of progress in this vital health index not seen since the 1960's.
America could once boast about its IMR but has steadily lost its health status
advantage internationally the last 30 years since passage of the Civil Rights Bill.
Note b: This period from 2000 to 2006 coincides with: i.) the proliferation of the high fat and
high protein fast food restaurants in America; ii.) the unannounced substitution of
the federally subsidized production of the higher caloric high fructose corn syrup for
the lower caloric sugar cane and sugar beet sucrose as a sweetener by America's
refined food industry; iii.) an attempt to corrupt medical science further with federal
research using statistical manipulation of death rates to give overweight and obese
individuals’ longer life spans than normal and underweight individuals; iv.) the
appearance of the “Metabolic Syndrome” [the cluster of cardiovascular and
diabetic risk factors including visceral (waist) obesity, high blood pressure, insulin
resistance, elevated triglycerides and low HDL cholesterol]; and the manifestation of
the Metabolic Syndrome as a major dysfunction of the people.
Note c: In a disturbing finding the infant merconum (first bowel movement after birth) as
well as neonatal newly born infant bile and infant blood contains high amounts of 22-
Hydroxy Cholesterol, C-24 mono-hydroxy bile acids called 3-beta-hydroxy cholenoic acid
and Lithocholic acid which are dangerous co-mutagenic, co-carcinogenic, atherogenic and
toxogenic linked to liver cholestasis (gall stone blockage of the gall bladder) and the
Oxysterols (24, 25 and 27 Hydroxycholesterols). In particular Premature babies are
associated with the at risk of high concentration of C-24 monohydroxy bile acids and high
Dietary Cholesterol maternal diets. [F14]
Esoterically as documented above and in Appendix A-1 because the human genome is

Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy: Relationships
Between Bile Acid Levels and Fetal Complication
Rates
Anna Glantz,1 Hanns-Ulrich Marschall,2 and Lars-Åke Mattsson1
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), characterized by pruritus in the second half of

pregnancy, entails an increased risk to the fetus. This study was designed to determine the
incidence and fetal complication rates in ICP, and to define groups at increased risk. In an
prospective cohort study conducted between February 1, 1999, and January 31, 2002, all
45,485 pregnancies in a defined region of Sweden (Västra Götaland) were screened for ICP,
defined as otherwise unexplained pruritus of pregnancy in combination with fasting serum
bile acid levels >10 !mol/L. Pruritus was reported by 937 (2.1%) women, and ICP was
diagnosed in 693 (1.5%). Simple logistic regression analyses showed that the probability of
fetal complications (spontaneous preterm deliveries, asphyxial events, and meconium stain-
ing of amniotic fluid, placenta, and membranes) increased by 1%–2% per additional
!mol/L of serum bile acids. Complementary analyses showed that fetal complications did
not arise until bile acid levels were >40 !mol/L. Gallstone disease and a family history of
ICP were significantly (P < .001) more prevalent in the group of ICP patients with higher
bile acid levels. In conclusion, we found an incidence of ICP in our population of 1.5%.
From complication rates recorded prospectively, we could define a mild (81%) and a severe
(19%) form of ICP, the latter with bile acid levels >40 !mol/L. No increase in fetal risk was
detected in ICP patients with bile acid levels < 40 !mol/L, and we propose that these women
be managed expectantly, which would significantly reduce the costs of medical care.

In Sweden, all normal pregnancies are monitored by

Statistical Analyses and Stratification. In a first
step, the relationship between serum bile acid levels and
fetal complications was analyzed with logistic regression
analyses. In the next step, logistic regression was com-
bined with spline functions. This approach resulted in
smooth curves with a higher degree of freedom, allowing
a piecewise analysis of subintervals in the curves. It was
thus possible to estimate the relationship between serum
bile acid levels and fetal risk in each subinterval. This Fig. 2. Frequencies of pruritus, preterm deliveries and IUFD in previ-

serum bile acids confer minimal fetal risk is also clinically
important.
ICP has been reported to be associated to an increased
risk of IUFD.3– 6 In this study, a low frequency of IUFD
was recorded (3/690, or 0.4%), similar to rates found in
the normal pregnant population in Sweden.15 We assume
that the low incidence of IUFD was due to increased
attention devoted to ICP and its symptoms during the
study, which might have led to early intervention. This
hypothesis may be substantiated by the high rates of in-
duction of labor and planned cesarean section (25%).

APPENDIX VIII-1: Description of BRCA\Hope LA-USA Project: “Planting Seeds
of Hope in Our Inner Cities” By Anna Bond
When, people are starving,

it is because their governments take too much,
Causing them to starve.
When people are hard to control,
it is because of the contrivances of their governments,
Which makes them hard to control. When people think little of death.
it is because those above think so much of life thus the
people think little of death.
—Lao-Tzu: Tao Te Ching
The CIA-Contra-Cocaine connection exposed by San Jose Mercury News’ reporter

Gary Webb should not have shocked us as it did. Drugs, weapons and money-
laundering have always been tools of the trade for U.S. clandestine operations
abroad. This most recent “dark alliance,” as Webb termed it, is simply another
episode in the long saga of American trade in drugs, guns, dollars, and human life—
only this time the life that trafficking victimized was African-American inner city youth.
From all appearances, it was targeted genocide. But what goes around comes around,
and a short twenty-two years after crack cocaine made its first documented
appearance in California, we have small Vermont towns with nothing that could even
be called a street hosting street gangs and crack cocaine.
Somehow the pipeline between Columbia’s cocaine cartels and the black
neighborhoods of South Central L.A. opened by CIA-backed Contras and Nicaraguan
drug-smugglers recalls the infamous Triangle Trade, which laid the foundations for the
fortunes of the future leaders of the United States.
Here the commodities are cocaine, crack and guns. There they were sugar, rum and
slaves. Then and now, we see mindless destruction of human life and soils, mere
means toward the acquisition of wealth and the control of the people by a powerful
elite.
In the late eighteenth century, ships left New England loaded mostly with rum. In Africa
the rum was exchanged for as many slaves as it would buy (often at the rate of 200
gallons per slave). Loaded with slaves, the ship set sail for the West Indies where the
slaves were sold to the sugar plantations and part of the profit invested in molasses.
On the final leg of the voyage, the vessel would carry the molasses back to New
England, to be distilled into more run, to buy more slaves. 1
How much is a human life worth? Two hundred gallons of rum: absolutely equal for
the purposes of trade! The damage to human society in Africa and the Caribbean as
well as the soil destruction on the sugar plantations was never taken into account.

APPENDIX VIII_2: Description of BRCA\Hope LA-USA Project: “Planting Seeds
In addition to the profits from the basic Triangle Trade, the American colonies supplied
food staples for feeding the sugar plantation slaves. In 1770, for instance, the colonies
exported to the Caribbean one third of their dried fish, almost all of their pickled fish,
most of their oats, corn, peas and beans as well as half their flour and all their butter
and cheese. 2
Ultimately, the Triangle Trade like the current Dark Alliance reveals an insidious mind
set that treats everything—top soils, sugarcane, coca leaves, human life—as
commodities or substances to be trafficked. 3 Using things as substances—rather than
respecting their inherent value—invariably leads to addiction. Addiction to gold and
sliver, addiction to sugar, addiction to alcohol and drugs: these were—Ad continue to
be—the driving forces behind the exploitation of resources—be they natural or
human—in the New World as well as the modes operandi behind American trade’
relations.
Eventually even money loses relevance as the trafficking takes on a life of its own.
During the heyday of the CIA-contra-cocaine connection, between the passage and
repeal of the Boland Amendment, in 1986, every market indicator of the cocaine glut
in America went off-scale. As Wanda Palacio, the Puerto Rican-born airline employee
whose two-year cocaine trafficking career spanned her relationship with an upper-
class Colombian whose social circle included “people deeply involved in the drug
trade,” astutely observed in 1987: “Three years ago [before Boland], the price of
cocaine was $50,000 per kilo. Today it is $20,000 and sometimes you can get it for
$15,000 to $18,000. The market for the cocaine isn’t smaller—so the lower price is a
result of having supply increase even more than demand has. 4
“It got to the point where it was like, man, use don t want to count no more money.”
— Freeway Rick Ross
Rick Ross, a black teenager, was a talented tennis player with a promising future. Then
his tennis coach discovered Rick could neither read nor write. Rick saw his dream of a
college scholarship evaporate, which leads to some pointed questions. Would the
coach of a white teenager have been unaware until the last lap that his student was
illiterate? Having lost his one chance for a better life, Ross hung his future on drugs
and became Freeway Rick, a dealer of mythical proportions in the L.A. underground.
later sentenced to life with no chance for parole on cocaine conspiracy charges.

3 Smoking tobacco in a ceremonial pipe was for Native Americans life-enhancing as it strengthened
human relationships with the powers of the sky and the earth and all their relations. Europeans turned
the sacred Native tobacco into another substance to be mono-cropped on plantations and sold to an
addicted world. Andean natives living and working at high attitudes have chewed coca leaves for
centuries, thus preventing chronic high altitude sickness and possible death, reports anthropologist
Andrew Fuchs in Coca Chewing and Chronic High Altitude Stress: Possible Effects of Coca Alkaloids
on Erythropoietin." Current Anthropology 19 June 1978). Were living the hell Europeans took that one.

States”, as quoted in Forum, San Jose Mercury News Web site, November 22, 1996.

300.
Freeway Rick’s story epitomizes the three-pronged plight of inner city youth. First, there
is epidemic subclinical malnutrition stemming from poverty, lack of nutritional awareness,
the proliferation of junk foods and drugs. Fast food franchises dot black neighborhoods
everywhere—serving up their brand of super-refined, nutritionally empty foods devoid of
any real identity no trace minerals, no vitamins, no essential oils, no DNA to connect us
to the earth and the soil. These are foods that enslave us and addict us: white sugar,
white flour, white bread, white fat, white salt, white crack.
Poor nutrition means your brain doesn’t work well, remember things, make appropriate
decisions. After seven generations of eating such food, we have lost our memory of who
we are, where we came from and where we are going. No wonder the infant mortality
rate in South Central rivals that of some Third World countries. Taoist Sage and social
commentator Lao-Tzu, writing over 2500 years ago, says it best: how can you really care
about life or death when you’re starving? “Thinking little about death," many people turn
to the euphoria of drugs.
The second handicap impacting inner city youth is the lack of opportunities and options
that comes with widespread poverty. There is virtually no chance to find a decent job, let
alone meaningful work. Poverty gives you no options to switch schools, get special
tutoring. Poverty leads to crime. Rick Ross grew up poor in Troup, Texas, then moved to
South Central L.A., where he slipped into a career of drug dealing. When you don’t know
where your next meal’s coming from, you think little of death—or life.
And third, we see clearly unequal education or, more accurately, blatant miseducaflon
both in the schools and in the media That miseducation breeds cultural, ethnic and racial
discrimination. When you see yourself as lesser, then you have adopted somebody
else’s image of who you are. Not knowing who you really are makes it tough to be
yourself or control yourself.
While most of the country is talking about accountability, people’s tribunals, justice,
restitution and compensation, one visionary African American activist is transforming
inner city hood areas into lush market gardens that incorporate pre-dynastic Egyptian
blo-intensive deep bed agricultural technology, intercropped ‘floating’ gardens
reminiscent of pre-Columbian Mexico, and three-tiered permacultured beds.
He is George Singleton: radical in the sense of going to the roots of the disease that
perpetuates slavery. And those roots are the three pronged plight that is crippling our
inner city youth: 1) the poverty/crime connection, 2) the subclinical malnutrition/addictions
syndrome and 3) the vicious miseducation/discrimination cycle.
In 1974, the year crack cocaine made its first appearance, underground in San Francisco
and Nicaraguan drug smugglers hooked up with Colombian drug sellers, George broke
new ground for his first Blacqendian (Black and Indian) rural development cooperative in
the Washington DC area. Soon afterward, George was recognized by Navajo leaders as
the one who had been prophesied to teach them the old ways of gardening. He lived and
studied with his the Navajo elders for seven years

301.
In 1981, just two years before Freeway Rick figured out how to blow up one kilo of
cocaine into three or more of crack, the executive members of Louis Farrakan’s (Black
Muslim) Temple 27 brought George from the Navajo Reservation to Los Angeles to
design nutritional programs and gardens for their congregation of 2500.
From his intensive study of the Annu/Egyptian Mystery School practices, George
helped the congregation align their diet to be harmony with the vegetarian ideals of
Elijah Mohammed. Synthesizing what had been revealed to him among the Navajo
and what he had earned from his Egyptian research, George developed an intensive
biological gardening technology.
By 1 985, that technology had produced a garden on the temple rooftop that provided
food for the entire congregation. Biological gardening is distinct from—and more
universally practicable than—organic in that it does not depend on animal manures
with their questionable microbial contaminants (E. coil) and agrochemical pollutants
(herbicides, fungicides and pesticides used in animal fodder).
Where organic animal-based comporting demands high-temperature bacterial

breakdown, large quantities of water and frequent labor intensive turning, biological
gardening relies on low-temperature bacteria! recycling of green wastes and, above
all, that “foundation of all civilization” (ecologist Andre Voisin) the earthworm, who
since before the time of Christ has been revered and protected as “sacred"
(Cleopatra). Earthworm castings create a humus topsoil of the highest fertility, filth
and biological vitality more efficiently than any other means. Biological gardening is
the gardening method practiced historically in Meso-America by the Mayans and
Olmecs and continuing into the present in the Nile Valley, the headwaters of the
Amazon in Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru; and in Hunzaland.
Recognizing the intrinsic connection between a people’s culture and agriculture,

George developed a powerful urban agri-forestry model—now called Hope LA\USA—
based on the need to break away from anima!-based farming with its inherent limited-
resources, scarcity mind set that inevitably breeds struggle and conflict. He also
developed this three-pronged mode! to provide simple, sustainable solutions to each of
the three handicaps that paralyze the majority of our youth at risk today.
In 1987 the cocaine-rated deaths of two B!ack athletes prompted national hysteria
and tough new crack laws that impacted U. S. Blacks with extreme inequality. The
U.S. Congress voted to give the Contras $100 million in military aid. Danilo Blandon,
son of wealthy Nicaraguan slumlord and Ross drug connection, was arrested, then
released only a month later when the Iran-Contra scandal broke.
That same year a prominent South Central resident and social psychologist urged
George to offer his genius and charisma to address the genocidal explosion of gang
violence and crack use among youth at risk. From his years among the Navajo,
George knew the extraordinary healing power gardening he’d for youth out of touch
with nature and themselves.

302.
A quarter-acre biological garden at the famous Children’s Space Educational

Center in Compton was succeeded by pilot biological gardens all over Los Angeles
County. George’s striking dreadlocked figure—shouldering forks, shovels, pickaxes,
even sacks of peat moss and earthworms to sites sometimes 20 miles apart—
became a familiar presence.
The super tree, the tissue-cultured Chinese Paulownia hardwood, shoots up 15 feet
per year under ideal conditions and is valued at $1000 per cubic meter of timber!
Aside from providing organic produce to the neighborhood, the Hope LA garden
expanded the greening area in the midst of South Central’s asphalt battleground, It
offered the youth involved the time and place to reconnect with nature, with the
source of their food and with themselves.
George developed a brilliant sustainable life science curriculum that was at once a
nonlinear education program that looked deeply at the political, economic and
nutritional aspects of what has been called the “criminalization" of inner city life
around the world and a hands-on apprenticeship in the high art and science of
biological gardening which, at the close of the two-year program, gave the youth
solid marketable horticultural skills.
Then in 1993 came perhaps the most potent agent for regenerating these youths’
malnourished bodies and drug-toxic immune systems. George started feeding
Super Blue Green Algae, a wild super food harvested Klamath Lake, to the youth
he was training. The changes were dramatic! Caseworkers observed better over-all
health, improved school and work performance, greater clarity of thought and
expression, sounder sleep, and a sense of new found joy and cooperation where
before there had been apathy and distrust.
George’s Project in South Central was so successful he was invited to teach 160
third time offenders aged 14-19 in a youth detention facility in San Fernando Valley.
Dispensing the daily Super Blue Green Algae to these youth, the Charge Nurse
was enthusiastic about the potential of this wild super food. Her observations
demonstrated not only the undeniable connection between poor nutrition and
criminal behavior but also the incredible ability to restore vibrant health, strong
immune response and a sense of bright hope simply eating this wild Algae could
offer.
Almost four years later, George’s gardening model has evolved to integrate the
deep beds with greenhouse covered algae ponds that provide abundant algae
fertilizer and create microclimates outdoors—a novel concept indeed. George
travels across the country to inner city neighborhoods, prisons, schools,
reservations that ask for his expertise and his wisdom. He has projects at various
stages of completion in over twenty states across the country.
Wherever he goes, George offers the gift of his technology of hope freely, without
charge. His Hope LA/USA garden projects are funded through his Super Blue
Green Algae network business and the sale of his videos, tapes and book.

303.
Providing Super Blue Green Algae to gang and at risk youth, caseworkers noticed
many changes: in patterns of increased sleep, awakening with vitatity, clearness of
thought, improved schoot and work performance, and a sense of new found hope. The
Project in South Centrat was so successfut that George was contracted to teach his
program at the Camp Holton youth detention facility in San Fernando Vatley. This
facitity housed 160 third time offenders aged 14 to 19, sixty percent of whom were
Hispanic and African American from South Central.
For a two-month period, youth participating in the Camp Hotton ‘Brown Thumb Green
Thumb Program" received Super Blue Green Algae. dispensed daily by the Camp’s
charge nurse. Her observations clearly demonstrated the connection beiween poor
nutrition and criminal behavior.
Today George’s gardening model has evolved to integrate the deep beds with
greenhouse covered algae ponds that provide abundant algae fertilizer and create
microclimates outdoors—a novel concept indeed. George travels across the country to
inner city neighborhoods, prisons, schools, reservations that ask for his expertise and
his wisdom.
The success of this program in Los Angeles led to changes in the funding
strategy. The program addressed the needs of inner city people across the
country. Thus, in September, 1995 the HOPE L.A. Project became the HOPE
LA\USA Project, initiating the development of Sustainable Agri-Forests in 25
states.
The Project’s current Sustainable Agri-Forestry model encompasses ten

interrelated aspects:
1. Spiritual Economics
2. Sustainable Life Science Curriculum
3. Intensive Vermiculture
4. Deep Intensive Growing Beds
5. Biological Horticulture
6. Three-tier Permaculture

APPENDIX_VIII_7: BRCA/Hope LA-USA Project, Inc.: Sustainable Agri-Forestry (SAF) TA Center
Paulownia “Super Tree” SAF in the Peoples’ Republic of China
George W. Singleton has been Executive Project Director of the Blacqendian Royal Coop
Association (BCRA), Inc. since 1980. He received a B.A. in General Biology from the
University of Chicago (1970) and a Doctor of Herbology (HD.) Degree from the LA, CA.
based International Monastery: University of Eternal Light Consciousness (1986)
under the apprenticeship direction of Alfred “Dr. Roots” Patterson, HD..
Since 1979 Singleton has directed chronic poverty abatement research, development and
demonstrations concentrating on ancient Egyptian culture and technologies including 3
federal grants. From 1988 to 1995 Singleton was the Volunteer Horticultural Instructor at
the Los Angeles, CA. John Hope Continuation High School. His work is highlighted by
the USDA/ Forest Service Grant #92-LA-5 funding of the BRCA/Hope LA Horticultural
Corps from 1992 to 1995 demonstrating Sustainable Agri-Forestry (SAF) utilizing South
Central-Watts, LA gang and “at risk” youth and young adults.
Singleton adapted SAF to address the present problems in the present urban community
garden movement; i.e. as the basis of the next generation of urban community gardens
capable of producing the horticultural assets to purchase its land sites and provide
significant livable wage jobs. The holistic 12 element SAF model annually can generate on
one (1) acre of land minimally 150,000 pounds of “organic” produce and other horticultural
products and providing 4 full time jobs at twice the minimal wage as training stipend .
Sustainable Agri-Forestry (SAF) as exemplified in ancient Egypt, ancient Israel and pre-
Columbian Mexico, Peru and North America can significantly ameliorate chronic poverty
wherever properly installed at a one time cost of $85,000 per acre and operated on a
“worker member” cooperative model. SAF is a technological forte in the modern Republic
of China and a foundation of its emerging super power economy.
Since 1995 Singleton has transferred SAF technology and demonstrations to organizations
in over 13 states via the BRCA/Hope LA-USA Project (HLAUSAP), Inc. The SAF model
was certified for federal funding eligibility in the USDOL Welfare to Work Competitive
Grant Competition 1999 Round #3 in CA., AZ., CT., NY., TN. and the Navajo/Dine’
Indian Nation. Singleton presented the SAF model to the 1997 State of the World
Forum/Sustainable Agriculture Roundtable, and is State of the World Forum Member
#20827 (presented at http:\\www.worldforum.org.)
The BRCA/HLAUSAP Web Site http:\\www.hopelausa.org is a complete self-help

Glover, Gibert, Hoover & Clarke, Carson City, NV., 1993 [ NY Times National

Pages 155-157
“Of course Cell Tech needs to do a lot more. Our focus in the market is very
narrow at this point, really. We have more than 30,000 distributors, but that’s a
speck of dust on the planet. They’re nearly all white; socially conscious for the
most part yes, but what you’ve got to do is reach a much wider group.”
“And Cell Tech is starting to do just that. About a thousand miles south of
Klamath Falls, a group of people are working on another agricultural project
under very different circumstances. The story is best told by Cell Tech distributor
Michael Stewart.”
“When Cell Tech decided to earmark ten percent of the algae to worthwhile
causes, I was more convinced than ever that this was a company I could work
with. Its involvement with Chernobyl, Nicaragua, and the Seeing Eye Dog pro-
gram in Canada touched my heart, but left me with a gnawing question about our
kids—-especially the inner-city kids who tend to reach for a spray paint can or a
gun, and join a gang before they reach for a book. I felt that if these kids had
more choices, they could be an asset to themselves and their community.
“Only one problem: How could I help this come about without getting shot?
Frankly, 14-year-olds with crack and guns scare the hell out of me. I’d lie awake
at night wondering, ‘How can I affect our weakest link ___ how can I help inner-
city kids?’ ‘Cause I’m white and I don’t live in South Central.”
“Several months ago, at an algae meeting at a local restaurant, one of the gals in
my group mentioned a guy named George Singleton, who runs a program
called Hope L.A. Horticulture Corps. Hope L.A. takes kids who are ready to
make positive changes in their lives and teaches them about pride, self-worth,
heritage, empowerment and especially how to grow gardens. She said they have
a two-acre plot in the hood, a non-truce gang area where drive-by shootings
occur almost daily.”
“Gardens! That was the end of the meeting for me—that’s all I needed to hear. I
went from A to Z in my mind; I had a touchdown right there. I said, ‘Give me this
guy’s number.
“Michael was impressed with George Singleton, an African-American and
Mississippi Choctaw whose personal philosophy is a distillation of Rastafarian,
Black Muslim, Baptist, and Bahai faiths. Singleton’s program is preparing the
kids for entry-level jobs in the agriculture and food industries, urban forestry,
nurseries, gardens and landscaping services.”
“When I first went up there and hung out with these kids, I felt as though I wasn’t
even worthy to be there with them. Even though I live a fairly clean life, these
kids are clear as glass. You look in their eyes, and you look into the soul of God.
These guys are deep; it’s unreal. They’re close to death on a daily basis; ten
shots have been fired into the garden at the kids so far. I mean, they have to
have truces just to exist. They have to have a truce with the Crips and the
Bloods— and that doesn’t account for all the sub-groups. When I leave, I get
swamped by crack salesmen; it’s a zoo there. Every time I go up there I cry.
These kids needed the algae yesterday.”
“Michael told me he learned that Singleton had started a program for inner-city,
ex-gang kids at Fremont High in Watts. “And I realized we’d come full circle,”
says Michael, “because Daryl used to teach at Fremont High.”
“So I hammered out a little proposal for Marta to get algae to the kids, and she
immediately said yes.” Soon shipments were on the way.”
“So do the kids eat the algae regularly?” I asked.”
“Are you kidding? It’s like a sacrament!” He paused. “My dream now,” he
continued, “is to get the soil amendment [an algae processing by-product being
developed by Jim Carpenter] down here to fortify the weak L.A. soil.” Michael is
pleased with the project so far. “If we can do it in L.A.”, he told me, “we can do it
anywhere.”
“Then just before he hung up the phone, Michael Stewart added this postscript.
“You know, the interesting thing is, a bunch of these kids are looking to do the
Cell Tech business when they finish school.”
